Yes. Doing in-depth tutorials on different materials/part are a life saver. instead of trying to find certain aspects of a long video and then having to replay that over and over while painting.

The status face from Wolfenstein look is a win for me.

videos like this are very helpful to the beginning painter. Good for understanding lighting and the transition from the bottom of the face to the top.

It's such an amazing thing to have such an array of "tutorials" to pick from. You can get something like " how to paint faces " by Jon, which is something that hits a wide range of use. Then you got Vincy V. with a tutorial on how to paint the big toenail on a Spacewolf's right foot during a Bloodmoon. Thanks for yet another amazing video with a lot to learn

New ice breaker - “Your Nasolabial folds are top tier.”

Definitely prefer these videos, because these are the ones that will actually make me paint better- as opposed to other painting videos where you just watch someone paint with zero direction on how to replicate the end goal.

I enjoy video that highlight ways to possibly conserve time in painting. The 30 minute face is the "best bang for your buck" so to speak. And pointing that out points at the best way to utilize my time painting, especially when army painting and not display or competition painting.

Ninjon=my hero!!! Yes, more content like this. Always looking to pick up painting tips. Thanks for what you do!

Definitely would like more in-depth painting videos. Gear reviews and such a good filler, but videos like this and especially your diorama themed videos are what really keeps me coming back to watch 🤙

Id like more content like this Ninjon. Painting the eyes for table top is a personal choice, thank you for saying so. Maybe cover techniques to define the eyes, without painting the whites, iris, lens.... Also, as an aircraft mechanic, i see loads of different coloes of bare metal. I try to emulate that on my figures. But many folks have never seen a naked jet engine. Maybe show how to paint different colors of metal that isnt "lead belcher/nuln oil"....i wouldn't have said anything, but you asked. 👍❤️

A fun video! If I could offer one suggestion; I'd have a section of the 3 heads, in their finished state, at the very beginning of the video and ask the audience to choose A, B or C on which is which. Then proceed with the painting steps / instruction. This way your audience is then vested into seeing if they were right. You might get a few more people watching until the end that way.

Fantastic video! Id really like you to do more of these with different skin tones because while the steps may be the same, the color choices would be different. I'm working on improving my ability to paint dark skin tones now and there is so much variation in color choice that impacts the final result, I feel like it would be a rich topic for you to explore. Anyway, as always great work!

Agree that “deep dive” videos are really nice for beginners.

I guess having time limits is like figure drawing, you're going to focus on the important gestures when the clock is ticking, and sometimes having more time gives worse result because you relax and slow down... until the timer hits zero and you're only half way done.

This is great Mr. Ninjon! I actually stopped the vid at the point where you show the finished 60min and 30min faces and they are IDENTICAL! Fantastic work. I (like so many mini painters) are rubbish at painting faces. This a boon my friend. Cheers from across The Pond.

Faces have always been a problem for me, and it helps to see someone break it down into steps like you have in this video.

Yes, definitely more of these kinds of videos. I’m excited to try this out and I never thought of using such a range of colours to get the final result.

These kind of videos are my absolute favorites of yours. I love hearing your thoughts and seeing your process on painting something, it really helps me to think through the painting decisions I make when I am working on something similar.

I haven't painted a face in over a year, and watching this video has me pumped to challenge myself with a few over the weekend! I'd love to see more videos like this -- maybe even more face vids diving into different skin tones and female faces.

Painting Faces is so daunting, but the way you break this down, especially the paint mixes as you work your way up, make a lot of sense!

I enjoy content like this a great deal, they help me understand the painting process a little better.

Another well done video! Keep these in-depth vids coming, there extremely helpful!

Great style of video focusing on one specific aspect of the mini in depth. Thanks!

Love the detail in this video, more like this please!

Absolutely enjoy these focused topic videos, Ninjon! Hope you continue this format. :D

I didn’t paint warhammer or minis for that matter but I do paint 1/35 figures for traditional scalemodeling so I always love to see these type of videos! I really struggle with faces so I need all the help I can get

I love the 80's Music Style. Plz put the Tracklist in the Description

Seriously, why does he outright refuse to credit the music he uses? He's never creditied any music artists in his videos and I think that's grossly egotistical towards the artists and of course those viewers that want to know the songs.

I enjoyed your video greatly. Having recently returned to painting after a good amount of time I am trying to learn new ways of doing my models, I noticed many painters are using techniques which either dinnae exist or more likely were not publicly shared in the past. Watching you do faces in several different time limits was extremely helpful. Any chance you could do a video on bare hands, gloved hands or any other type of hands?

I like a good mix of in depth and overview. Keeps things fresh.

I love watching you paint and I think this video is particularly good because you are teaching me something new. That being said I appreciate that it isn't always possible to find a new technique or something else new for each video and I feel that it is important to say that sometimes the best videos for me are watching someone just painting and letting us follow the process.

I love that type of comparisons and in depth tutorials

I always find some take away from your videos, regardless of the specific subject, but this one in particular was really insightful. Especially where you mentioned returning to the painting table after a break - I thought it was just me. I would love to see something like this for monochromatic paint schemes as I searched high and low to no avail recently. Keep up the great work!

I have been just worrying about painting the faces on a couple of models I really like. This video has really helped me better shape a plan in my head. Thanks!!!

I think your right there is a minimal difference between 30 and 60 min version. I'm not a competitive painter, but I do still Glean some knowledge on painting faces from it. Oh, and your soundtrack has a little 80's vibe in it which I love.

Love seeing this focus on one small area of painting. MOAR of these! 😀

Love the tutorial videos, especially the stuff we paint a lot of. Thanks!

I love these tutorials. The fact you are willing to dive into the weeds on these things absolutely is amazing, and the technical details isn't really easy to find in a lot of places. The only other places you can find these sorts of videos are from scale models who make tanks, planes, railroads and military models

great video. learned a lot, love the amount of details and your thoughts of the process

love the specific focus

Good one, thanks. I think the 30 minutes one has the most expression ( not only because of the design but because it's a bit "harsher" painted ), would definitely go for that!

As someone just starting my second year in the hobby I love videos like this! Seeing the details and the steps at 3 different timeframes is really helpful. Thank you.

I really enjoyed this tutorial. Painting faces is... one reason my army mostly wears helmets. I know I'll get hate for this, but I'd like to see a tutorial on painting a race like the Tau. I'm sure the principles are the same, but after that, I'm at a loss. And I like the deep dives into a small part like a head. The extra detail helps a lot.

I really enjoyed this video, not for the deep dive specifically, but rather highlighting how much can be done with some forethought prior to setting out. The 30 minute face looks awesome, and even for 10 minutes is clean. Knowing how you decided to adjust the process to the "errors" that happened provided a lot of insight to higher level painting skills such as color mixing on the fly and adjusting saturation and contrast.

I really liked this style video and your tips really helped me out!

Actually, the face is one of my favorite parts of painting. It's a very small, contained area and gives a model TONS of character.

I would enjoy a second version of this video that includes three more so you can have six to compare. One that’s a contrast paint over a zenithal. One that’s contrast paint but layered up with thin acrylics on top. And one that uses everything.

Yes! These tutorials are what I love the best. I have to say, I'm loving the 30 minute one the best. You are amazing, thank you!

Wow.. as much as I've really liked a lot of your content, this is perhaps one of your most useful videos ever... I'm literally going back to my paint station tonight and going to work on faces in a whole new light... thank you. And yes, more occassional videos like this would be fantastic.

I just started painting miniatures, 28mm, and your videos have helped a lot! Not just these tutorials, but also your videos on gear.

This was a great video. I love seeing the technique, I love the fact that it was an experiment where you got to do some theory crafting then we got to watch you apply the things you were talking about. I have been prepping to make a serious attempt at faces and this video crammed so much into a short amount of time it was the best video on the subject that I’ve watched so far.

They all look fantastic!

I love this. Thank you. I'm gonna use this today. Wasn't even gonna paint today. Just feeling inspired to slay the grey.

Great vid Jon!!! Definitely do more in depth dives every now and again

These are my favorite types of videos. I like when there is a focus on one skill/section. I like the self contained nature of this so I can save it as a reference to come back to.

Love this kind of in-depth tutorial. Also seeing which parts of the process you truncate versus the ones that are worth the time and effort.

Excellent. There are many generalized videos on miniature painting but I find ones like this one really help me grow as a painter. Keep them coming

I needed this tutorial!

Loved it. Thank you for the specifics. A tutorial on skulls specifically would be good, eg large ones like dragon skulls down to human Thanks

Love this format! ❤

I no joke just opened my scouts killteam and was dreading doing the faces and trying to think of how I’ll do it. And BOOM Jon comes in clutch. Thanks Jon, 10000 crispy tendies to you good sir!

I'm in love with the fact that there's now a miniature painting tutorial for how to contour. also that's way better than I can contour my own face in ten minutes

Absolutely love this video, thanks for the great advice!

I love these kind of videos. Keep them coming 🎉

Great video. I truly enjoy these videos more than any other.

thanks for the vid I really like this style

Awesome video , thanks a lot for this work ! I will definitely try this out on my black templars !

I like the 30 minute face the best, but then again? I can't see myself spending THAT much time (more than say, 30 minutes or so) on a face that tiny. I've got my ways of painting faces that are perfectly adequate for my skill level as of now, but I still learned a lot from this video anyway. Thank you, Jon!

Thank you very much for the tutorial videos. They're very helpful. Mixing in humor helps hold my attention. I'm currently trying to up my skin tone skill so this is perfect.

This was very useful as I am just starting on a big showcase model and these techniques will help alot

Really loved the video. Got some Space Marine heads to do myself shortly, I'm sure this will prove invaluable. Would be very happy to see more in-depth, specific videos like this! But, to be honest, I enjoy your content to the extent that I'll watch whatever you want to do, really!

Finally the face video I've been waiting for. Good tutorial Jon. Would like to see another vid on 10 (15) minute faces with a better plan.

In-depth videos sound very good.

Love that type of format, keep up the good work!

Great video, loved the tips and will definitely be used going forward.

I like the more detailed video that focuses on just one thing. Thank you.

Yep great video, like tips on specific topics, also like the technique videos you do with the colourful shading stuff, about to try my first of those, and my next face, Ill try painting seperately as I usually do the face last. Great tip on the oval with the whole bottom half more shaded, thanks.

yessssss please more deep dives on specifics

More of these in-depth tutorial / time-challenge / comparisons and critiques in the future would be very welcome Jon! Love this kind of content and your approach in particular is always fun and entertaining.

Very much appreciate the tips and ideas. We are taught in traditional portrait painting that the face can be looked at primarily in 3 colors to create that realistic skin effect: yellows in the forehead, reds in the cheeks, nose, and around the eyes (middle of face), and blue for the bottom. What you show here makes sense.

I really enjoyed this video. I appreciate you showing us the “how” and explaining the “why”. Keep up the great work

luv the vid , gave me some confidence to paint faces in a more controlled way other than flesh color , wash and highlight.

Great video, definitely do another in this format. All three of your models were done so well, very impressive. I do dread painting faces and don't plan to start for awhile yet 💀

I would love to see more videos like this! I think that 30 min face is really the sweet spot. I wouldn't mind seeing another one of these with other types of skin tones (black, Asian, middle eastern, etc).

I second this, and as someone who is doing Alpha Legion I would also appreciate somebody who's deathly pale. A good tutorial on how to do that Raven guard, walking corpse look.

I love these types of videos. They're super informative, and help me make decisions regarding my own hobbying. I'm entering my first painting competition next month, and your content has been invaluable in that process 👍.

Realy nice! Thank you❤

Love this kind of tutorial video 😊😊😊

I love the nitty gritty detail videos. Great job.

Just recently found your channel, thanks for the video! I like these more tutorial-ish videos. The amount of knowledge and help out there nowadays is amazing. The first time I painted a warhammer mini was back in the 90s when my dad took me to a hobby shop he liked, and back then all I had to go on was a "how to paint warhammer 40k" book, what my dad knew about scale modelling, though he was more of an RC guy, and what I knew about value from my drawing back then. This is a great time to get back into the hobby there's so much info out there now that just didn't exist back when I was a kid.

All the faces work on screen but in hand I am sure the differences are noticeable! Paint eyes unless they are table top! great job!

Amazing work!

I like the more in-depth style! Keep ‘em coming!

Watched to the end and I definitely appreciate these kinds of videos where you go in depth. I wouldn’t mind seeing one on OSL and capes lol

Love it Ninjon! Would love a quick mounting video. I see the cork and such but a quick paint mounting video would be great! Thanks again though, always an inspiration to slay my grey.

You make the best tutorials! Thanks for always showing us great techniques!

This was amazing Jon, I truly appreciate this. Color me inspired! Exquisite job on those face labia! ;)

Loved the vid. The soundtrack was awesome. And the 30 minute head was definitely the best!

Insightful video - would love to see more like this one!

This video is FANTASTIC! Thanks!

I found this interesting and useful Jon. This will be one I will be watching again and again to help me with my painting. By the ay, being in the groove is such a thing, even picking up a mini two days after can set you back and I recently found that I do better, if I am batch painting, if I do 3 hour sessions and at least complete the same item on all teh models. tat way I know the right paints to use etc. I do sometimes forget what base paints I did use on a model to start another one in the series and that sets me off on the wrong foot.👍👍😉

I also like the nitty gritty detailed tutorials. Keep em comin! And I miss bloopers. Maybe they're more trouble to edit than it's worth, but if not, they're fun.
