I really appreciate that the thumbnails show the finished product. So many hobby channels blur the results in their thumbnails, which tends to have the opposite effect than what they're going for. Thanks guy!

Something about the hard transition from "MEAT FOR THE GRINDER IN THE GEARS OF AN ENDLESS WAR" to "Hey everyone! Guy here! :D" made me laugh.

LOVED watching this! We love a good army painting project and it's so rewarding to see all of those models standing in uniform when they are done. Great job Guy!

There's honestly loads of Guard color schemes out there, both in official material and fan made.

Love that you had the most bleak, grimdark intro I’ve seen in a painting vid followed with a very cheery “Hey everyone!” Also that battle report is gonna be a marvelously vibrant spectacle!

Personally, I find the speedpaints make a mild camouflage effect on the armor panels, which I think looks really good.

Agreed! The blotchiness on armor looks pretty good ngl.

You gotta love it when guy uses his grimdark voice

I actually *really* like the dull armor panels, a penal legion isnt exactly high on the pecking order for getting equipment maintained, so it makes sense the paint would be in a not as high level of maintenance, so it makes sense that its dull, love the video Guy, glad you can step away from the warlord finally and do other stuff for variety

Wow, that orange really pops! Layering a couple Speedpaints was a good call on this one.

Finally! I'll paint a big target on my back again, but I am glad that you get to try out these paints! Hope to see them more as a tool in your Arsenal.

I can't get over how good Guy's music is. His tunage is legit!

The tonal whiplash I got from the introduction to the actual video-

Pouring that paint back into the bottle was like every movie when the character is dying of thirst and pours their last drops of water or new found water all over their face spilling 90% of it.

Really liked the super clear disclaimer about the paints, there’s defo a lot of channels out there that aren’t that clear about what they’ve been sponsored to show.

I really appreciate the transparency about paint brands. It’s got to the point with speed paint that I don’t know if some hobby KZreadrs like them because it’s a good product or if they have a vested interest in showing them in a good light. Thanks for being honest and keeping your opinions objective.

We don’t pay for reviews. We DID hire three channels as consultants for their feedback in the development of the new colours and range but we’ve been extremely forthcoming about that. In their contract we specifically state that we were not hiring them to make content, we hired them as representatives of our great community :)

I love when you show mistakes. And also try out different colors. Most painting channels just show how easy everything is for them and never show the trial and errors.

This is how I’ll paint my guardsmen, makes them very unique

So hyped for this video as soon as I saw the notification

Awesome. I love off-the-usual-box-art-color-schemes, which is why it was so hard for me to 'Sandstone' my Indomitus Necrons, but I couldn't get away from the bony color pallet. Guy has become _'the Man'._

NEW MIDWINTER MINIS LETS GO!

Finally Deathmatch returns!

This was a creative colourscheme! Well done.

oooh! lovely Velvet underground callout there, Guy!

Awesome video. The models have turned out great. The orange is great but that gold is amazing. Hopefully you can test more of that gold on other things and see how it ages. Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the good work.

Good to see the formula hasn't changed much in the way the paint behaves. This technique is my go to now. The speed paint tells me where to add highlights which is my favorite part.

Wow-sticks and deep dark holes...great video!

Those mini's turned out great, love the Commissar....Well done..👍

I've also burst open my army painter bottles like that before, nice to see a hobby hero go through the same struggles

that Commisar is genuinely gorgeous :D that purple is the best color of them all

That looks amazing! I can’t wait to see them fight the forces of chaos!

These are undoubtedly my favourite videos of yours. So informative and therapeutic

that blue for the plasma pistol is amazing

Those speed paints are great I didn't know they had a metalic now. With the little pack of them I was making a bright gold whith zealot yellow by mixing it with vallejo silver but maby I need to check them again for the new colors

Very cool to see. Also, nice Velvet Underground reference.

Ooh! I’ve just been getting started with mini painting using army painter’s starter kit and really been enjoying it. Definitely want to give these speed paints a try now!

They look pretty good in orange def the best way to paint Cadians.

A bit of weathering with a sponge and those blotchy armor panels would've looked great and worn!

These came out great, congrats! Thanks for some of the extra tips too, much appreciated! 😎👍

I enjoyed this video! Sort of a return to form and I appreciate it!

Nice result! 👍😄👏

I have the original plastic inperial guard box set from the 80's and even back then i made a " dirty dozen " inspired penal battalion squad and used orange for their uniforms too.

Thank you , Guy . 🐺

I have only used speed paint 1.0 but they can really pop if done over a colored undercoat. I wanted to paint a librarian with the blue armor so i based the model in purple, zenithaled it in teal, then a drybrush of white. When High Lord Blue went over it, it really looked good

Awesome video Guy, it's really appreciated, and I enjoyed watching it. I know that AP has said that with the new 2.0 formula, that if you let the paints dry for about 2 hours (variable depending on weather) they shouldn't re-activate at all any more. That being said, I obviously haven't had the chance to try them out myself yet, so watching this, and seeing them being used 'in the wild' so to speak is really helpful.

Great video, love the colours.

The dropper bottle incident reminds me of my Lil incident with speed paint as well. We're the cap was loose and I shook the dang thing gushing a bit everywhere hahaha.

That Caribbean Ocean paint over white is pure magic. Hate doing plasma!

Thank you!

Anyone interested should check out the Last Chancers novels for penal legion action. Definitely hits the "Dirty Dozen in Warhammer 40k" vibe really well.

That commissar looks awesome … and a great tip on the paint bottles!

Testing the paints on the bases, finding which you like best, THEN RE-PRIMING THE BASES?! My god... it's so simple... WHY DIDNT I THINK OF THAT?! In my tiny brain, paint=forever so it's scary in that regard. But this is just flippin' smart work.

Great job on these. Bright orange always scares me. :D

wowow I love that purple!

5:29 Rocks'n'Stones to the bones! oT

The content creator Warhipster uses contrasts for some of his tutorials and talks about how to get better coverage on flat panels

Love that the commissar looks like he would fit in well with the Ork army you have Guy, lol

Very Dapper looking!

Shared on Twitter! Thanks, Guy!

I recently started using some of these paints, and I've found that if you do a clean base coat of the individual colours you want then apply the relevant speed paint over the top you can actually get some nice effects. For instance I painted my vampire/zombie dragon things wings red then highlighted, t hen used speed paint red over the top and it really popped.gave loads of depth and amped up up vibrancy of the colours. Hope this was useful. And by the way, love your stuff.

love them, the guard are mighty!

Definitely gonna use this video when i paint gsc, thanks Guy!

I love speedpaints so much. With a white primer they are so fun to paitn with. You certainly need some regular paints along site depening on what you are painting.

Great stuff friend 👏 👍

Loving the Velvet Underground ref ❤

Really cool concept

If I were doing a force like this, I'd be tempted to do variant colors on a few of the armor panels and lasguns. I like the idea that their equipment tends to be picked up and re-used from battlefield casualties, so gear of different shades would end up cobbled together. I'm imagining orange-suited prisoners being herded directly from the prison ship, to the heaps of salvaged equipment, to the battlefield.

I love seeing how creative the community has been with Guard since the "Cadia Stands" box came out Also, the heavy weapon team is included in the start collecting box so that you can run it as part of the squad

Funnels put the fun into pouring spilled paint back into the bottle!!!

Extra thumbs up for reviewing paints that you paid for yourself. Kudos.

Nice, I will be stealing that dayglo orange recipe. Looking forward to seeing the tank getting painted up.

Damn guy. Chills from that intro. Good job!

The Kommisar has some Chaos Vibes with the purple coat and the red and orange clothing.

Personally not a fan of Army Painter paints as a whole, and I admire your perseverance trying all these different painting techniques out, but I think this only solidifies how counterproductive "speed paints" can be generally speaking. Great video, always good seeing people's honest takes. Look forward to seeing these projects duke it out in the arena!

Cool stuff!

Those are great colors. Your review is a happy surprise. I like army painter speed paints because they are much cheaper than Citadel and readily available at my local shop.

Really cool paint scheme!

*MEAT FOR THE GRINDER IN THE GEARS OF AN ENDLESS WAR* ..... "Hey everyone! Guy here :D" I died

Honestly if you haven't already I'd highly recommend base coating in pink to paint orange. It gives one of the best, vibrant oranges I've seen in a long time. Plus, you usually don't need to do the extra layers of orange with it.

Dont think we missed that Velvet Underground reference guy! These guys look great. The orange is a really unique color, very eye-catching, and great idea with the barcode insignia. I imagine when you do the lemans russ, In order to sell it as a penal legion you could 'weld' the hatches shut or something similar, like they're ensuring the crew don't bail out at the first sign of trouble.

Great video!

That's such an amazing color scheme! Love these

thanks doc

Very cool!

thanks for telling us how the nozzle incident happens. happened to me the other day too.

Ive been dying to get my paint-hands on the speedpaint metallics!! I love that swarm purple!

Very cool

How you did the commissar is exactly how I use my speedpaints. Adding some white or off white to the regular speedpaint colour creates the perfect highlights to give your paint job that extra pop.

I loe the glory shot where the commisire is pointing his gun at one of his men's head, Spot on Sir :)

Love those old mugshots in the introduction. Great touch! Thanks for showing us the mistakes you make too, Guy. You are human after all!

Looks good.and the algorithm is satisfied.

I saw a second brush in there putting in work lol. Also the orange and white look like perfect rebel pilot uniforms.
