This is a fantastic tutorial! Clean, clear and easy to follow. Great instruction, and really good camera work and view of the models. Thanks for this!

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Thank you very much! Really kind of you to say, hopefully you find it useful 😁

@porcu12345 2 года назад

One of the best grimdark space marine tutorials i've seen. End result is fantastic. Looks realistic and gritty, like it's actually been trudging through a battlefield.

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Thanks very much!

@Silkyfin_ 6 месяцев назад

One of the best parts about this is that it could easily be applied to other chapters such as the salamanders by simply changing the base coat color. All the grime could be used on anything with the right method!

@SpensPainting 6 месяцев назад

Yup, exactly! Generally you can use a slightly brighter colour than the standard colour for an army, apply the grimes, and you'll be good to go!

This is awesome. Please do a tutorial like this for your krieg kill team miniatures. I have 3 boxes worth to paint and yours is the best ive seen.

@GhostMaker00 Год назад

I think I'll do ultramarine this way. Fun trick for that bared wire get a tooth pick and wrap the wire and scrunch it making it look like wire

@Jonny_Karate 4 месяца назад

Love it, i want to try and do something like this with tau, but not sure what base colour scheme to go, was thinking like dark colours but I don't know what would go well with this technique

@SpensPainting 4 месяца назад

It works great on Tau! Definitely go for a higher value (brighter) version of whatever colour you think you might need as the grime will bring it down quite a lot

@AmuNkyOnFirE 2 года назад

This looks amazing! I wonder if it would work with my night lords who I’m doing in Kantor blue 🤔

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

It definitely can do! The only thing with nightlords is that they’re quite dark usually so make sure to include some bright elements to add some contrast like lightning bolts, some bright metal scratches, glowy eye lenses or osl, that kind of thing. Otherwise it could end up looking a bit too dark all over, unless you like that kind of thing!

@philipgodwin4068 2 года назад

Brilliant video may I ask what colour streaking grime you have used I've never used Mig paints but looking on the website there's a number of different ones. Cheers

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Thanks! For the all over coat, that’s their standard streaking grime 1203, and then the dark streaking grime on the shoulders and splatter is 1206

@David5thUltra 2 года назад

This looks amazing :) . Is there a way to achieve a similar affect using just citadel paints with lahiman medium etc?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Thanks! You probably could but you would have to actually paint on the grime rather than use a reduction like here.

@OneManBand1987 2 года назад

Dude. For WEEKS I have been trying to find an easy method to just make my Grey Knights kill team look nasty and muddy and this is, by far, the best way. Just need to get the supplies and I'm good to go.

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

It’s so quick and fun to do! Are you on instagram/twitter? Would love to see your finished models!

@idiotfilms8298 2 года назад

Do you have any idea on how I’d do this colour scheme with Blood Angels? Perhaps Evil Sunz Scarlet? Great tutorial btw :)

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Thank you! Yes I would say either Mephiston Red or evil sunz scarlet would be perfect and follow the same weathering and grime steps

@MegaNate86 2 года назад

My paints have finally arrived so I'm ready to try this. Out of interest, do you varnish the model before adding the grime? Thanks!

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Excellent news! You don’t HAVE to varnish before the grime, the thinner won’t react with the acrylics as long as they’re fully dried/cured. It can be helpful though because if you get a little rough with the cotton buds that can rub some of the paint off if it’s not fully dried, and it also helps to protect transfers

@MegaNate86 2 года назад

@@SpensPainting great, thanks! I've just done it on a farsight enclave model so just waring 24 hours for the result! Thanks agian

@kingremus7544 2 года назад

Awesome video, I imagined your painting stile to be more complex and take much more time to do so :D Im glad it's not so i'll have to try this too! How does your streaking grime compare to citadels typhus corrosion?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

No it’s really quick! There’s so many models I want to paint that if I did them all with nmm and volumetric highlights I’d never get round to them so this is the style I’ve found that I both enjoy and doesn’t take me too long 😊 The biggest difference between them is that streaking grime is enamel based so you can do the reduction and remove it from areas that you don’t want it, whereas typhus corrosion is additive in that you add it to the model and you can’t really easily take it away. Typhus corrosion is really nice for adding some gritty dark texture to a model though which streaking grime doesn’t do

@nikr5598 2 года назад

Inspiring tutorial, I now want to try paint some night lords using this scheme, do you think the model could potentially benefit from doing some edge highlights before all the weathering?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Oooh yeah a night lords in this scheme would be great! I can do, but probably not as much as it would for eavy metal or volumetric style painting because a lot of them will be lost in the weathering. I would probably go in after the weather and just add some small dots and selective edges as chips and scratches if anything, but give it a try! It’s always good to experiment 😁

@nikr5598 2 года назад

I was going to go with Kantor blue for the armour, do you think I need to go with something brighter for this to work?

@ngoch Год назад

Hi! I can't seem to find the Ammo by Mig streaking grime and dark streaking grime where I'm from. Are there good possible replacements from Vallejo or AK?

@SpensPainting Год назад

AK also do enamel washes like the Ammo by Mig grimes, but just be careful to check the colours match up. You want a brown for the Streaking Grime and a black-green for the Dark Streaking Grime

@davsto6375 2 года назад

I don't think you did in the video, but would you edge highlight the base blue before adding the grim, or just show the grim effect to be more of a lowlight?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Nope! No edge highlights, that’s one of the fun things about this style of painting 😊

@dusty23007 2 года назад

Hey this is incredible . How well would this work with the blood angels scheme the mighty brush uses? I've been using his on thr indomitus box on my first warhammer painting ever and loving it but it is a bit time consuming. I'm not sure adding this will make it quicker though. Would this take the place of doing edge highlighting or at leas multiple layers of it since it's so grimy?

@dusty23007 2 года назад

Also where do you get your supplies from?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

I'm not familiar with their scheme, let me check it out and come back to you! Do you use an airbrush or only regular brush when painting? And I get mine from RivalCrafts in the UK :)

@dusty23007 2 года назад

Wierd it's deleted my comment twice now. I use an airbrush though.

@bloop4754 2 года назад

amazing tutorial, i want to do that with my deathwatch will the oils still fit well?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Thank you! For painting black armour I have a couple of videos that might be useful to you, if you look in my grimdark playlist at the Black Templars video and also the Horus Heresy Dark Angels video, those should give you some ideas on how it can look 😊

@Unambean 11 месяцев назад

4:23 What rust would I use by Mig? I was looking for their rusts but couldn’t find one that looked similar to AK’s.

@197mmCannon 2 года назад

What’s the difference between AK and MIG enamels? And have the AK staging grimes and rust sets and they seem to work great to me.

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Functionally the same however the AK Streaking Grime has colour consistency issues (sometimes green, sometimes brown), and they have made some very concerning marketing decisions in the past

@FanoramaTV 2 месяца назад

I'm a newcomer to the hobby, just wondering, is highlighting a no go with the streaking effect method?

You can certainly still highlight, but not as needed when you use streaking grime

@jamesbest5001 2 года назад

Do you varnish before adding the streaking grime?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

You don't have to but it can help! The grime and thinner won't react with the acrylics, but varnish can help to reduce the risk of rubbing any paint off with the cotton buds.

@ahoymatey1234 2 года назад

do you recommend this method for a tank? and do you need to use a hair dryer for it to dry properly ( you mention this at around 6:10 )

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

Yep! I’ve used a very similar method on (most of) a sicaran. The only thing I did different was used a sponge to reduce the streaking grime because of the larger area. You don’t have to use a hair dryer for the enamels to dry, but it just speeds up the process. One of the great things with using this technique on a tank is that it adds a lot of interest to what can otherwise be big flat surfaces

@jamesbowles6601 2 года назад

Would this thinner remove normal citadel paints underneath the grime?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

The thinner itself won’t, but if you rub hard with the cotton bud it can

@7thBatallion Год назад

What green to use for Dark Angels? I'm building a kill team from each starter box up to 8th, including RTB01, this is how they'll be. Even the old beakies.

@SpensPainting Год назад

If you are airbrushing I would say something like Vallejo Game Air Sick green should work a treat

@7thBatallion Год назад

@@SpensPainting I rely on the...old techniques. Brush and pot.

@SpensPainting Год назад

The old techniques are tried and true! In that case I would go for Citadel Warpstone Glow. Using a slightly brighter colour will help to keep the contrast once the grime goes on

@ahoymatey1234 2 года назад

hi, another question for you, how do you handle this type of grimdark effect on skin?

@SpensPainting 2 года назад

It depends how I want the skin to look really. I usually do the skin first anyway, but if I want it to look mostly clean then I’ll use a brush and just brush on the streaking grime where I want it and remove any extra that gets on the skin that I don’t want, if I want the skin to be grubby and grimy too, I’ll just spray the whole thing in grime

@matthius519 2 года назад

did you matt varnish before griming>?

@2edBT 3 месяца назад

Does it have to be air brushed. Could using a brush have the same results?

@SpensPainting 3 месяца назад

Yup you could use a brush too ☺️

@ApexBovine 2 года назад

I think grimdark style is my last hope at getting some models on the table. I’m hopeless at edgehighlighting, and if I’m being completely honest, it’s not really my favourite since it always ends up looking cartoony. Gods please let this work out, I’m so tired of buying dettol to strip my army lmao Edit: tried to follow along but teclis blue over black base coat really doesn’t look the same. Gonna have to get some vellejo air

I don't know why, but every time I try, it doesn't work. I tried to apply SG and wait 5 min, 10 min, 30 minutes... Every time I go removing, it never comes so "clean", or sometime I took of the color under the SG.
