Thanks a lot to Miniac for sponsoring this video! Get his awesome 75mm Elves and Brushcoffin mentioned in the video at: miniac.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

I certainly appreciate the type of projects you showcase - not for total beginners, but also not "master at work." Having the follow-up video of taking it to the next level is also very nice, I find it really applicable to my own miniatures.

Achieving that level in 15 minutes is truly a show of mastery.

Hey Chris! I've been painting for ~16 years, and I have most of the basics down. I love your content because it's easy to follow, but still in-depth enough for me to apply the new knowledge. I especially love video's about colour transitions by brush, because I'm awful at those. I always get horrible staining and it doesn't look good :(

Always look forward to another video from you! This one turned out great, I love the colors and transitions. Simply awesome.

This was a really nice video, you've made one of the more complex schemes look really doable with a brush and the pink contrast on the black is a really nice touch

Agree with the help on more intermediate level content, especially just effective tips like you mentioned for good results but not super hard to accomplish either technically or because of the time investment.

Make it so! Always fun to see you paint, with so tips it just gets better

I love seeing how to take a paint job to the next level ❤️

This is really well done. I like how it kind of reads as simple colorization even though there are several steps. It doesn't feel over painted.

Love the way you are using dilute contrast paints, it achieves so much!

Really appreciated this - feels like a great intermediate tutorial for people who are well beyond beginner level but struggling to get better results like the pro videos show. Very inspired right now!

I think the transition from “beginner” to “master” is just as an interesting level of painting as any other. As you point out being able to do relatively straightforward techniques together both well and quickly is the basis of successful army painting which is a goal in itself.

I love the use of the contrast for the gradiants! thx

I've been waiting for a full video on the eldar ever since seeing it in the livestream and it didn't dissapoint. I really like the matt purple-ish black on the helmet.

Wow, that is an excellent result! Thanks for sharing your process on this

Extremely satisfying tutorial. The perfect balance of very-very cool result and relatively simple steps to follow

This is amazing! I'm painting my Aeldari now for my first 40k army. And yes definitely not sure how to get beyond that beginner standard. Thank you!

I rarely add comments but this channel has been a godsend. I regualry check back to see how I can improve and this Idea of the step between intermediate and pro has eluded me for some time. Would very much appreciate seeing how to improve as one day I would love to paint some thing im truly happy with and fits with the vision in my head. Seriously appreciate the videos

God i love your painting tutorials, they're clear and easy to follow and I'm always getting great results while following your steps. I'll definitely think of supporting you on Patreon when having a salary :)

I think this level of tutorial is exactly what we need! Even if everything isn't a master-level technique, very few people are familiar with EVERYTHING you do in this video. So most people can pick up one or two techniques to try out, while this video is still accessible to the general audience.

Simple but sooooo effective. Great work, great understanding of the miniature and techniques. Kudos.

great uses for contrast paint!

Super appreciate this one, looking forward to the follow up. Currently messing around with a color transition scheme for my new Eldar, want it to feel like a sunrise/set.

Inspiring as always! I found finishing an army project was one of the most satisfying moments I’ve had in the hobby.

Really awesome video! I really appreciate your approach to videos in general.

I am buying an Eldar Combat Patrol tomorrow and these paints. Thank you Chris!!!

This is great, man. The intermediate level painting ideas are awesome. Fantastic video/idea!

Fantastic mini and video, more like this please!!!

Hey man, really liked this video. Must watch more of your stuff! Love the colour scheme and the techniques used. 💪

Beginner to intermediate is a lovely idea

One of the best painting videos I have seen in a very long time!

Hello from Ukraine. Thanks for new video!

I appreciate you showing us how to do this without an airbrush 🙂

Such a good result and a really well explained and demonstrated proces! Thanks a lot Trovarion! Think I may have found a good baseline for my next Eldar paint scheme - already knew i wanted to go in a greenish / turquoise direction :D

I know you mention early on that an airbrush can do roughly the same technique with a higher speed but I wanted to say thank you for showing something like this from a brush-use perspective. I love my airbrush but I lack a decently vented area/work station to use it so I'm restricted in it's use, this video showcased effects that I've had a lot of trouble doing with a brush. Thanks again.

I love your pigment pushing, and it’s an area that I need to improve upon. Thanks for this!

pigment pushing is love, pigment pushing is life.

This is a beautiful piece

I have been thinking for a long time that intermediate painting content is missing! sounds great!

Awesome tutorial, and great colour scheme! I agree that "bridging" skill-level tutorials are sorely missing and would love to see your advice for that.

Incredible work!

Great video! I've always struggled with color transitions, so this is really helpful. I'll also definitely try out your technique for the sword. The result looks really cool. Somewhat like non-metallic metal with less time investment.

fantastic video! i totally agree that intermediate content is a masive hole in the market.

A M A Z I N G! Love the mini and a really nice Mymaera tutorial, great job!

Love to see how to take it to next level and totally agree on the surfeit of beginner videos on KZread

Really love these videos where you just paint. Great content 😊👍🏽

Fantastic video, great tips!!

Another great vid mate - Thankyou for sharing 👍

I look forward to an intermediate level video from you. You kinda did it for the bloodbowl ork which was very useful for me to make my own version.

This Eldar turned out really nice. Looking forward to your follow-up video

I believe that even Urist would trully enjoy this. As always, a treat to see Trov´s content.

You make everything seem so easy, love that sword a lot!

Really like the combo of easy techniques here!

the sword is awesome! thanks 4 the vid!

Very nice result!

I really like your other painting tips where you go from base to advanced so you can choose how much time and effort you want to invest in your miniatur.

Just the kind of top quality stuff we’ve come to expect

I think your idea of helping intermediate painters is great I'm stuck in that area because my and I think many other painters want to paint character better instead of them looking the same as the rest as our forces due to being scared of just going to higher level painting

lol i got a kick out of miniac showing up in a suit. look at him sponsoring other painter vids. cheers to both of you who have taught me a ton!

Love the colorsheme!

The green base worked so well with the (implied) blue sky. For me it looked less like a "craft world uniform" and more chameleon/camouflage and built a whole story in my head.

That wink / kiss 💋 lols great vid.

Great video! I do share this dream, but after 5-7 minis it gets a nightmare for me as I really find it hard to keep it simple. This video is really helpful! Thanks, Christoph!

Love it :) Thanks a lot for making it :)

Hey Chris! You're looking better. Also the sound quality of this video is much better.

Would definitely love to see more mid range painting stuff.

Hey trov, allways a pleasure to see you painting. The Eldar turned out just great. Cant wait to see you pushing him even further. I just started an army of Blood Angels basing on your idea of "grim dark Blood Angels". I just finished the first bunch of Intercessors and might do a Redemptor or some Eradicators next. Thank you for the idea, anyway. :)

We defiantly need more pigment pushing vids

Been looking for a recommendation for brushes that don’t break the bank, used your link from the description so thank you very much for quality ones at a good price. Awesome and informative well delivered video as always.

nice, happy you found something and thanks for using my link!

Wow! Those colours are fabulous! Totally 80ties disco effect. And I have to try that effect on a sword! Thanks for the inspiration :)

You make colour choice look so easy. This is such a great scheme!

Thank you! 😊

Yes please do videos on the middle quality level painting!

Love your stuff, but your style is so intimidating to try to replicate. Absolutely awesome to watch!

Love the intermediate content. I never find the need to "speed paint" something in 30 minutes, and I'm also likely not spending 20 hours +. Both of those extremes are very rare for me. I want a result I can be proud of in a few hours or so. Although I'm learning to put the mini down when I start to feel like I'm rushing to get it finished. I can usually get a few more hour + sessions in that way.

Yeah 2-3 hours per Mini are the sweet spot for me.

Love the 'inbetween' stuff especially on how to think and not just 'how to'

Trying to find a good painting guide for even just inspiration can be pretty hard on youtube when most start of with airbrush stuff, thanks for a more regular painting video that uses standard brushes. Now i need to figure out which paints to use, and which i can replace with what i already have. Never see any tutorials using Revell paints though.

a greatvid! lots of useful info here, id love to see your take on a drukhari wych or kalabite warrior with a similar style.

Great video!

Just noticed you hit over 100k. Congrats!

These new Guardians have some booties lol Blue always suits Eldar, beautiful paint job !

I would be truly proud of myself if I could ever pull off a paint job like this. "Elevated table ready" is my goal.

Really cool

Wonderfull content, thank you 🤟

100% agree that the content tends to fall into begginer or master approaches and learning intermediate skills and more focused topics on skill development would be amazing

Yes!! The intermediate is definitely missing. I've learned a bunch of intermediate stuff by backtracking from advanced content, but it would have been really nice to have some content in that range to learn from. I'm still learning to better find the exact right consistency for the application, finding the right ways to move the brush to get the stroke I need or the pigment to land. What it really means to "cover a smaller and smaller area". Etc. All the things that are commonly said but rarely explained.

Love the tutorial. Gradients can be very difficult

Did you ever post part two? Very interesting guide, thanks

Great video as always.

Progression painting videos would be so nice!

The King returns with more treasure for his subjects. We are not worthy, my liege.

Gorgeous results, I may try to use this scheme for some lizardmen I have lying around. I just wish you specified how much you dilute the contrast paints before using them as shades or with the power sword.

i wish you did weekly vids i enjoy your content so much

Would love more intermediate conent from the GOAT

Nearly spat my food out at the "gatekeeper" comment 🤣🤣🤣👍

Great work with this one, having this mid level content is great.

Didn´t you want to do a follow up video for this one on how to bring it the next level? I would absolutely love that :) You are amazing, thanks for the awesome content

Great stuff! Love any content you put out. It IS called a plume.

Thanks for pointing out the missing middle skilllset the transition period between intermediate and advanced, as thinking about it you either see tabletop ready quality or wow thats a golden demon winner shit. So yeah thanks and I would love to see more tutorials that can help me master my painting progression.

Greetings! Amazing video! Learned plenty. Question! I am trying to paint some Iron Warriors, it is a "simple" scheme, allegedly. How would you tackle them? Iron Within.

Like to mix in matt varnish to kill the shine of certain paints as well. Have noticed that it frost on you a little if you overdue it.
