Gloomspite Gitz Batch Painting! Efficient Painting of 100 Moonclan Grots to Tabletop Quality! 

stunning. inspiring. insane. great job.

"I painted 100 goblins without losing my mind" - looks into the camera like his soul was sucked out of his eyes

Love the calm Bob Ross vibe of your videos

It's great for passing time when people take 30mins to decide what to do on their turn

well you decided to paint 100 goblins yellow, pretty obvious you lost your mind a long time ago

Happiness is seeing a large old school regimen of night goblins. Great tutorial! The models look awesome!

They do look AMAZING in those numbers on square bases.

I thought my 11 grots were going to be a monumental task as a new painter. You have given me the inspiration and vision to move forward!

I’ve watched this video three times in preparation for my own 86 grot mass painting challenge. While I’m not doing yellow as the primary color (going with typical black), I found your methods to be inspirational in formulating my own plan. It’s definitely made it easier and more rewarding to finish whole steps on a large quantity of minis. So thanks Brent!! Looking forward to the next mini roulette!

So, somewhere in my storage unit I have a box full of first edition, WH lizard men! They have been in that box since the early 90's! The box is 36" by 22" by 22" and is literally packed with multiple copies every piece of the lizard men produced by WH 40k back then! I'm thinking maybe over 200 pieces all together! I'm going to put together a plan to paint that massive collection and maybe put them in a diorama against a phalanx of Brettonian Knights that I have been saving from the same time period! Thanx for the inspiration!

Amazing job and excellent video

It's even more impressive when you see the cats not knocking them off the table.

Dude the way you talk... It's like the bob ross of Wargaming. Good job man, learned al ot. Keep up the good work.

Not only are you a gifted painter but your level of patience and attention to detail is out of this world, good job !!

Nice to see a WHFB army in this Age of Sigmar.

something i haven't seen in 25+ years, totally random find, subscribed and hit the bell this is good stuff, thanks for posting!

"Get some hobby done while roleplaying with your pals". Priceless. ;-)

I stumbled upon this video a few weeks ago and since then I've watched dozens of tutorial videos, spent 200 dollars on supplies and just finished painting my first minis! Thanks for the inspiration!

Brent, you're wonderful. Thanks for being a great artist, good human - and clearly really passionate about the work you do.

lol in this period of time you have painted almost as many models as I have in 31 years of the GW hobby. Wow I feel pathetic. Great job.

You are so right about the bases. They just look so much better on squares. Awesome vid.

Great video! Batchpainting can be a real hassel, but once you're done you feel great at having achieved so much work. Doing a painting challenge myself atm and had been burned out on painting the last 3 days. But this gave me some much needed motivation to get back to painting the last minis. Hope the rest of your channel is as awesome as this, because this was a great video!

Great planning and process! I really appreciated the summary at the end about test models, drafting a plan, color selection, experiments, and time savings!

I'm so happy that you have such a long back catalog of videos for me to go through and keep me motivated while hobbying.

What a great video. Thanks for breaking it down so well. Clearly going through the steps you went through helps a lot. This is is inspiring!

I haven't seen before a better preparation! The look very nice for that little time!

32.5 minutes each is better than my average, this is as impressive as it is ambitious. Good video.

Great video Brent. Followed this video and watched it over several times while batch painting 72 minis for Zombicide Dark Side. Thanks again for your great videos.

Thanks for the shoutout! I love how your grots turned out man, they look awesome all next to each other!

You sir have earned a subscription! As someone who is doing rank and file Fantasy Armies, and with a huge backlog of different armies I want to complete, there were some really fantastic tips here to inspire me to keep pushing forward!

Thank you so much for this video. I firmly believe it is the pre-planning, testing, and battle plan you laid out that made this project work (without you losing your mind.) It was also the portion of the video I appreciated the most. There are so many paint like this watch me paint videos out there. So few go into the thought process behind (the why instead of the what.) Thanks again and great video, subbed!

I've watched this video a handful of times now, and it's a great watch every time!

I gotta be honest I could never see myself painting more than 20 or so of anything, even if they don't all have the same color scheme, 20 was the point where I stopped painting chaos warriors and started kitbashing them to be something more interesting... And I didn't even paint them all at the same time! Huge props for somehow managing 100 bloody goblins out of all things.

The painting while playing a Pen & Paper rpg is spot on. I have a friend that did this all the time back when we gamed at his place.

thank you for going to so much detail. not just about the physical either, but the mental aspects needed to take on such a huge task as well. the results are outstanding, and the composure and pride you show in your models is inspiring.

I've gotten back into miniatures in general since some friends and I finally got round to playing D&D. Needless to say I forgot how much I enjoyed building and painting them. I've picked up loads of helpful tips and tricks from your channel, thanks a whole bunch, O Bob Ross of Miniature Painting.

*Stares at my ironjawz start collecting box* It's time boyz. Thanks for the inspiration!

I don’t comment on videos often, but this was very motivational and I’m looking forward to painting my big batch of Duardin soon. Also got me through a rather large terrain job! Thanks!

I'm just about to get into the hobby with my first ork boys. I'm doing them in yellow myself and seeing these little grots come together just makes me so happy. The whole atmosphere in a zen painting session you put across makes me so eager to get painting personally. thanks for sharing this with us and keep up the good work!

Great work, very enjoyable video. I loved the detailed process you used and the way you guided us through it step-by-step. Well done, the army looks great!

You put them on a square base as God intended you are my hero I will share this video.

Da gusto ver a alguien joven pintando de forma industrial, sin necesidad de usar gafas. Yo he tenido que comprarme una macro lupa de 5 dioptrías y aunque sea una maravilla, también es un engorro preparar la mesa de trabajo. Con lo cual, con lleva que cada vez pintas menos. Un placer ver como trabajas y como te lo pasas en grande. Un abrazo desde Spain

Your videos are always so calming and happy, it puts me in such a good mood

I'm really glad I found this video. I have around 110 of Warhammer fantasy Imperial (Highland Miniatures printed) 32mm models I've been afraid to paint. Handgunners, halberdiers, and pikemen. I've already painted 20 hand gunners and it took me a couple weeks. But you've given me several good tips that should help me speed up my painting. The organizing of poses and weapons before starting is definitely a great one. Thanks!!

brilliant! Super inspiring. I play Warhammer Armies Project: 9th Ed. It's a community made rulebook taking the best of the last 3 editions, they also have army books to match. I've been really enjoying it. Something to consider since they're still on their square bases.

I like your approach and step documentation.

Fantastic job and really satisfying to watch you achieve this feat of mental endurance!

No idea why youtube recommended this to me, but it was really pleasant listening to you explain the whole process and give some really nice insights.

Nice one! Batch painting is the best way! I’m slowly painting a fyreslayer army

Sir.... You somehow manage to get me through (a very small in comparison) batch project, with this inspiring video! You should have waaaay more sub than you currently have! No doubt in my mind that they will come tho'! Cheers from denmark! Thank you, and happy hubbying! :)

This is a great video. Just getting into war gaming and mini painting, I found your channel, and I have found some great tips. This video is really good, as I am doing mostly uniform army painting, USA, German, etc. and I have to paint roughly 20-40 minis at a time all in the same colors. Because, army. I felt like it was taking me too long to paint, about 45-50 per mini, but I'm new and I make a lot of mistakes, like bumping up against parts of the mini with paint, then having to go back over them. Getting the idea together and the list of paints I want to use will be very helpful, and developing a strategy on how I want to paint them all is also very helpful. I look forward to digging through more of your videos, probably while I paint!

Thanks for this video. I found this box laying in my closet, bought back in 2007 but been laying dormant since then. Got a lot of ideas and inspiration and motivation to get trought the painting from this so have one speartroop with yellow robes (a tribute and reminder to keep going 🙂) but the champion, standardbearer and musician have red gloomcap hoods to stand out in the block.

as a kid I painted 64 Skink models from the old Lizardman range (that was 2!! monoposes). drove me almost insane. I painted them one by one. with more adult thinking and planing (or better: guidance), it may not have been such a toture. great job! also, greetings, fellow left-hand ;)

This video popped on my recommandations and while some of them are a clear indication that RU-vid is smoking weed, this one was a real pleasure to watch. Love the calm and soft voice/vibes of the video, the explanations and advice and really makes me want to replay the video while doing some painting (but not 100 models :D). Likes and subscribe done sir and thank you for this great video, hope you will do some more. Best regards from France.

Oh My! That is a lot of Mini painting! you have a great system! I do not ever see myself painting that many of anything! but we never know the future do we! I had no idea of getting any mini's, yet here I am looking at painting mini's from Jazza! Thanks Brent you have a sweet channel!

I'm so glad I found you, straight up, no BS painting

speechless :O *just subscribed from the amount of dedication just for this video*

Great video! I have 60x Empire Halberdiers to paint. Really needed the inspiration! *subscribed*

really nice tutorial video. It's awesome to see batch painting done so well, with great results.

This as super awesome! Thank you. I can really see the striking presence of the square model choice.

That's a fine looking horde you've got there. I've got the Skull Pass ones too and for the sake of my own sanity they are staying on square bases.

This was straight up comfy

Seriously, the best batch painting video I've ever seen by far. Not only went through the steps in detail by the info at the end of the video is gold. Coming from someone who's wargamed for the last 15 years. Awesome video mate. Thanks!

I have a load of 40k Orks that I've been neglecting to paint for some months, including a Mordor troll-Warboss conversion... you have given me the the motivation to go back to these and start getting them done. Great video, really well put together and presented. Good stuff, a subscription easily earned :)

Being overloaded as I am with all the hobby projects I’m currently working on, ive fiercely resisted the urge to build a gloomspite gitz army ever since they were recently released. But this awesome tutorial is testing my will power INCREDIBLY!!!

Green wash over yellow base coat seems like the best/fastest method of painting grot skin for sure.

Very smart process! It’s been a long time since I’ve needed to paint huge units/ (15mm Napoleonics!) now it’s small(ish) squads of 5 to 10. Great tips. Love the look of the finished regiments !

Much respect! I too have a large Skaven horde army that I've been working on for about a decade. I dedicated the past 2 years to get some of my unpainted models done. I too am bad at keeping track of time so it was good to see you break yours down. With the last unit I completed, I thought I would be done in a day but in actuality, this took over 5 days. It was a hard feet but definitely a rewarding one. My favorite armies are horde army but I am going to reconsider the next one.

Duuuude! I’ve been wondering how to do things like this with out wanting to paint the wall... thanks man!!

I love these minis. I'm definitely starting to feel the hype for Warhammer: The Old World. It'll be nice to rank these guys up again and try to win a battle, or at least take out some of my opponent's army with me.

Really fantastic video! I completely agree with all your points. It really helps when doing batch painting to figure out what matters to you and where you can afford to cut corners. I have about 60 Tzaangors that need to be painted. This video really gives me a lot of inspiration to get them all sorted out and worked on.

Liked and Subbed. So glad a friend shared this with me and thankyou for taking the time to go through this process. There's a few of us who are veteran painters who have found this invaluable as we face painting new armies.

I like the time breakdown. Congratulations on finishing so many models, and at a great tabletop quality level! I haven't yet done the pre-plan. I guess I sort of do, I tackle a small part of a unit, usually 10 models and record the paint and steps I make on an index card as I do it. Then the next time I paint that unit type again, I refer to the index card and tackle 30 or so models at once. I am going to try the pre-plan approach with my Plaguebearers. I've found the Vallejo Game Color Extra Opaque paint line helps a ton with base coating, especially when batch painting.

*Putting the magnets on* Me: “AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FO DAT” *spraying with the magnetic columns* Me: 😲

Sir, your dedication and endurance are inspiring! Made me start a new with tabletop after years of absence.

Thank you for the inspiration. I bought a huge amount of old empire models from a friend. I have a lot of painting to do

Awesome planning and awesome execution. Lots of fun to see them proper and ranked up like the miserable little gits they are ;). Seriously though, funtastic job and somewhat strangely soothing to watch...

Great video, I can't fault anything you did or said. The scheme looks great (love the purple), the care you took shows and the result is way more than tabletop ready. - On the topic of yellow and airbrushes, I have my own story: I'm painting my marines in an orange and dark grey scheme. 1. Prime light grey and basecoat with a carbon/dark grey color (airbrush). 2. Paint chest, knees, feet, head, elbows, hands, shoulder rims, part of the power pack in a mix of gold yellow and orange fire (vallejo). Takes anywhere from 5 to 10 thin layers of orange. 3. Paint additional details like boltgun for guns, bright gold for emblems/aquila, blue for ropes/capse/cables and much more (well over 10 different colors, several hand mixed) 4. Glue the subassemblies (chest/legs + plus arms/guns + shoulders + head + power pack + pinning on base) 5. Wash orange and gold with seraphim sepia, some nuln oil on details, some aggrax earthshade for dirt effects. 6. Cry because I've done just over 40 models, but still have 15 marines, well over 40 primaris and 5 vehicles (2 rhinos, repulsor, land raider, imperial knight and a baneblade) Once I've finished this army, I will never paint yellow/orange on a dark base again. I don't know what I was thinking. My problem is that I don't own and currently can't afford the airbrush, so a friend of mine does it when he occasionally has time. If I were to do this again, I'd simply airbrush the entire model orange and then hand paint the grey. It's a lot harder to fix mistakes this way, but it can be mitigated by doing thin layers (four instead of the 5-10 orange ones). I will say this though; My effort shows and there won't be anyone else stupid enough to match my army colors.

Never in my life have I liked, commented and subscribed to a video that I had stumbled upon. For once, thanks RU-vid algorithm. Fantastic work and this is giving me inspiration to do this with all of my Tzaangors I have to paint.

This is truly awesome, in so many ways. Planning, patience, result, square bases!!!! Age of Smegma can Do One!

32 minutes per model is amazing at this quality, great job :)

I am in the process of my first batch of night goblin stabbas and I've fallen in love with these little guys. I've never played any version of Warhammer but have always been a collector of various different goblins for use in D&D , these guys have probably took the Pathfinder Goblins position of my favorites now. I doubt I ever go to these lengths with my painting, hell I use cheap craft paint from hobby lobby and make my own washes but the important part is I'm not embarrassed by my paint jobs and I have a wonderful time doing it! I never realized how relaxing and therapeutic it can be to sit down for a couple hours a day and just paint. As a plus my little nephew and niece have discovered a love of dragons recently so I painted them both a dragon , I can't wait for them to get them in the mail!

Really glad I found this video. I just opened my Battle for Skull Pass box (which had been hiding in storage for years) this past weekend. I haven't painted Mini's since I was young teenage (I'm 41 now.....:P). I had been wanting to get back into for a long time. I'll be sure to use a lot of the tips you show here. Thanks!

Great Job.. greetings from Vienna 🇦🇹🇦🇹

Going to try this with orks, wish me luck!

Good job on such a big project. I like your use of magnets I add one to the bottom of the wood pedestals and keep them on cookie sheets to move around easy and fast.

Great looking army. Great video. Great channel. Thanks for the awesome tips and thanks for your hard work on these. I like that you are doing things a bit different from the norm. Looking forward to more videos.

This is so relaxing. You could really be the next Bob Ross.

Not gonna lie, first thinking 'ok, this should be interesting' and then 'I started by airbrushing' for me is kind of sigh, since most people don't have that. On the painting itself, its very cool to see it on camera mass painting all this and just hard not to be inspired by the organisation especially, great having like what was it 6 or 8 painting handles and how you lined them all up and well should be obvious I guess thinking back on it with organizing the colour scheme before hand so you should usually know where you are at and excellent job of what you said at the end, having a list of paintlist/order and crossing it out is an ingenious idea since like mentioned, i'm guessing it's quite satisfying to cross out. Fantastic job! will definitely use this for finish painting troops and oof, repainting most of my orks.

I found out about your channel through the youtube channel "metatron" and honestly your channel is without a doubt the best minis painting channel I've ever seen. I'm very impressed with the detail in everything and clear explanations. I couldn't find anything to criticize. 10/10 and you can expect me to continue watching more videos.

Very inspiring! Everything you say makes sense even watching star trek and listening to audiobooks is so familiar to my multitasking procedures during my sessions. Keep going! Great job! More of it please! 🖖🏻👍🏻

I like the color scheme cause it's much better than the generic black. i made mine a bright purple :D

As crazy as this still is with an airbrush. You had an airbrush which made the main color fly. Not a lot of help but still shaved time from using brush the whole way. And I agree even as a 40k player mainly I don’t know still how I feel about round bases in sigmar. The Interesting appeal of fantasy was the large blocks of infantry

Absolutely fantastic! Got yourself another sub good sir. I'm exited to see more of your content. I'm also a big fan of the channel you mentioned, and I'm happy to have found both of your channels.

Watched this twice. Love to watch the transformation. The finished product is awesome.

Saw this on lords and heroes I think and RU-vid algorithm put it in my feed hah gj

Reruns of star trek/star gate. Auto sub from me based on that comment alone!

Great video and army. really enjoyed the chill vibe of the whole thing. looking forward to see more from you! :) keep on painting!

i dont play anymore but really enjoyed watching while i draw! id love to see more vids like this! love the colours too!
