Quite a bit in there then, I managed to get in quick enough to get one from Element for £70, so even better value
If you get it at a discount this is really good value!
Lovely. Really like the GSC's in this
Good value on them too if that’s the team you’re after
1:05 That Patriarch looks suspiciously like the one from the last Space Hulk edition.
It’s exactly the same one (set) available now in 40k ‘broodcoven’
Here’s the Nightmare unboxing for those interested kzread.info/dash/bejne/hX2K0JVqldbWk84.htmlsi=VBRyFyRQmhHj-Wdq
To add realism to the models dry brush the feet and legs with that lighter sandy colour, as then it should show the Dark Angels have trudged through the desert and not just been placed fir the asthetic.
Thats what I use weathering powders for, gives a great effect
Have you tried putting any of the trees together from the Heart of Ghur sets? They’re the worst lol.
I have not! It seems to be a bit of a running issue with more and more scenery pieces being a nightmare to build over aesthetics - I k ow that’s probably part of the process and a side effect if you will of having more ornate scenery. But still 😂
What model is this? Do you have a conversion video for this guy with the huge axe? Love your stuff brother, inspiring!
This was one of the first DA conversions I did, I used the Primaris captain body DA upgrade sprue and the Deathwing knight halberd
Guess we have different materials here in the states. Just tried this with wetwipes I bought off the shelf and they were tough to pull apart....but if I pulled too hard they would rip apart. No idea how yours were so stretchy and perfect. Got everything primed, did exactly as you shown and my armor plates came out to look like small gobbets of bloodspatter, not marble. Really sucks. This is for my Knight Archeron....going to have to either change the paint scheme to match the white and red bloodspatter (this is supposed to be House Vornherr for my Loyalists..) or scrub it and start all over, forgetting this attempt at marble. Waste of 4 hours of trying to get everything without mistakes..
what was the brand you bought? a few people have said they tried flushable ones and they couldn't replicate the method, over here in the UK most of the wet wipes are pretty similar (I use really cheap ones from a supermarket and have tried a few different brands) and as long as they are completely dry I've had a consistent result, let me know and ill see what i can come up with for you, id also always recommend doing a practise pass on something like an old base etc to avoid having to strip a mini and save a bit of time.
I'm going to do this for my Dark Eldar, but with one difference - using plasticard squares to create 'tiles', then doing the effect you showed.
If you spray the sheet then cut it and mix up the tiles it will save a lot of time doing them one by one. Good idea that!
Can you send me a tile? To germany❤
Might get a bit broken in transit 😂
Perfect timing. I’ve got an army to drybrush this week
Hope it helps! Drybrushing is great for getting stuff highlighted quickly and effectively
Thank you sir
Hope you enjoyed!
Great video. Do you wash your drybrushes off after using them? Ive tried rinsing my dry brushes off in my water cup (which would have paint in it) and it ends up making my nice army painter dry brushes get very stiff.
I use the masters brush cleaner and preservative, it’s a brush soap to recondition brushes.
@@minacarolina7671 thanks I'll look into that
I only clean my brushes when I’m done with drybrushing, if you need to clean them, exactly what @minacarina7671 said, however a good alternative is just a hand soap bar with is moisturizing (something like dove) I’ve been using it for a while and and it cleans the paint off really good and keeps the shape.
I am excited for the finale.
Enjoy!
More good techniques. Quality.
I have never seen anyone use the top of the paint pot like that.
Thanks!
I look at it as a win-win as it shows the colour on top
Is it a Fenris Workshop mug we see at the start of the video?
It is! I’ve known them for a good few years and anyone across the pond from me, I would recommend use them, I also have a link to their store in the description
@@cat_or_rabbit Best hobbying shop in Quebec City! I always buy from them as it is only 2 minutes walk from my house.
I love this. So good.
Thanks!
Excellent technique. Very useful.
Hope it helps!
Nice job🎉
Thanks!
You have the best back ground Music
Godbless free stock music - it’s jazz all the way!
I'm a sax player and mini painter I have to much fun in my life
@@timothymcdaniel5231 oh nice! I always just wanted chilled videos that people could enjoy, I used to play guitar/bass but I cut my index finger off on my left hand and it severed the nerve endings and I’ve got no feeling in it, I gave up as I couldn’t feel if I was holding the string down. Enjoy it, music is such a big part of my life
@@cat_or_rabbit I am sorry that happened to you It really hurts to lose your ability to create art that's why I 'm great full for minis 😁
'Anything can be a drybrush' Your instructions are unclear. My wife is not happy with you after that. I picked her up, turned her upside down, and tried to use her Barnet as a drybrush. Still, I did discover that her ginger hair (she is a day walker ginger; red hair, but able to develop a lovely tan when the British sunshine stays around long enough) makes for excellent terrain tufts. However, she now has to guard her bonce so I don't sneakily cut bits off... I'm obviously joking; I will shave it all off while she sleeps 😂
Will add loved ones to my brush list in the next one 😂😂😂 tell her it will build character 😂
Do you reintroduce water into the brush bristles between colors?
Yes, I basically do it on every application of paint
Love the attention to detail. I wonder if you 😅could get the same badlands soil paints with adding salt and/or baking soda to regular paint? 🤔😜
Thanks! I’ve also thought about this and will probably look into it in the future - I’d love to make my own texture paint
Sound advice, thanks! I've never really employed this method of dry brushing so I'll give it a go.
It has its uses, and can be a great skill to have, I find this way I get a constantly good result
What an interesting technique. Luckily when building terrain I don’t have to be so detailed with dry brushing. But your video shows how well it works.
Dry brushing is great on terrain, I’ve got a video on how to use oils for really quick terrain if you’re interested (on my channel) and I dry brush in that too
@@cat_or_rabbit Sorry. I should have been lit clear. I don’t know if you need to be so meticulous when dry brushing terrain. But maybe I am wrong; I will go find your video.
@@reddogterrain here’s the video kzread.info/dash/bejne/jIupu9WCgK_NmbA.htmlsi=CzXAsM-cg4rQtnw- When it comes to scenery I’d probably not worry too much about a smoother finish if it’s suppose to look a bit beat up, for buildings with lots of flat surfaces I’d damp the bristles, but that’s just me and it really depends what you’re going for
Got any cool hacks to make life easier? Share them below!
I'd like to see a tutorial on how to paint orange armor without having to use Contrast paints I'm asking this since I'd like to try out painting up some Orange Space Marines sooner or later and I'd like to use a combination of stippling and drybrushing for a quick and simple orange armor scheme
@@ChaseDaOrk3767I do briefly talk about this in my Orange video, I’d probably start from a red basecoat and just build it up from there - circular motions on curved surfaces, and take my time to get a smooth finish.
@@cat_or_rabbit Just to let you know, your IG link in the description isn't working.
It´s easiest than that.... Move to Vallejo. Period
😂😂😂
How did you do the flesh ?
Videos up on my page on pox walker skin, there’s also a dedicated skin tutorial video too
I dont recommend flushable wipes. They do not stretch.
Good to know, these seem to be becoming more popular in the U.K - I haven’t tried them using this method but if they are no good, cheers for the heads up
Отличная миниатюра!!!
Спасибо!
You and Darren in the toilets 🤣
I’ve got so many more that I just couldn’t put up 😂
I AM A DWARF AND IM DIGING A HOLE

Please do something with Lethis! I was thinking of changing the purple to khorne red... what do you think?
Lethis was going to be the paint scheme i originally planned for, however I'm a sucker for yellow! red washed with druchii violet and the highlighted could work (as you would have undertones of purple but keep the red) paint videos unfortunately just don't do that well for me, so its slim pickings on what I'm able to put out.
You might have already mentioned this in another video but what’s the holder you have for your miniature?
The one in this video is the Redgrass one, I normally use the old chunky GW tho as it clamps the miniature well, I use this one for sculpted bases as as it adheres well to the tac and you can spin it
@@cat_or_rabbit thanks so much for sharing the information
GW def did a great job with the Night Lords!
They really did, it’s a good sprue, hope to see more like this!
Great unboxing and great breakdown of all the bits with this kit. I was gifted this box set as well. Thanks!
Probably my favourite SM kit of last year, good value and some very cool models!
Being new to WH40k (<30 days) and choosing Dark Angels as my 1st army, your faction, kitbashing & painting advice is INVALUABLE. I love the lore, iconography, heraldry & Primarch of DA. (Grey Knights & Deathwatch a close 2nd & 3rd). A 1 year goal for finishing & diorama showcase for my planeed 2,000+ pt DA Army. The lore, fiction, painting & appreciation is primary, with actual TTWG a 2nd. Looking into some smaller unit TTRPG within current M40/41 lore (damn is it complex!) to get used to TT action. Thanks, mate! Big time... (Cleveland, OH, USA)
Really appreciate the kind words, glad it’s helped, Dark Angels are such a good versatile faction with so many possibilities!
Outstanding comment to be answered
So iconic, so meta, Grimnir by Calvin klein
And for those wondering this is how I do my skin! kzread.info/dash/bejne/jKBt2MNmiKe1XaQ.htmlsi=jEHcKkbHPYexvMuY
Brilliant 😂😂
Bloody technical difficulties! 😂
Cool minis
Thanks! A lot of fun to do!
I do The Pallid Hand colors too, thank you for your tips ^^
It’s a great scheme for Death Guard!
@@cat_or_rabbit Absolutely !
The sergeant should of had the plasma combi
I originally planned on doing a few of these but never picked he project back up,
Corax White is so underrated - i use it to drybrush prehighlights all the time when I work up from a grey or black prime
I’m always using it and have never really had a problem - I think the paint gets a bit of a bad name due it’s temperamental older spray counterpart, which has been know to be difficult on a few occasions
Apothecary White is a miracle in a bottle!
Such a great paint, - army painter do one called battle ship grey which has a blue tint to it (great if you want to add some cold undertones!)

Very clean
Thanks Buddy!
