MKVI Blood Angel for Horus Heresy 

"Quick Gaming Level Model" - paints superb mini. Quality video mate, saw this on twitter and subbed in anticipation, not disappointed.

Hi Richard. I just wanted to say that you have been the most influential artist for me personally. Your use of stippling and weathering techniques have truly changed my personal style in a way that has made me excited about painting my own minis again. Keep it up man!

Always a pleasure to watch your process. Thank-you sir.

I liked in advance because I know this will be awesome! 😁

This might be the scheme I’ve been waiting for! Thanks Richard, nice clear instructions as usual!

Thanks! Great to see an approach that doesn't rely on airbrush and oil washes!

Liked in advance. Your videos has made a huge impact on the way I paint!

Very nice. The new Heresy stuff looks great, so exciting to hear more will come :)

Can't wait to check out some Imperial Fist content, but this was fantastic! You've made me want to give it a go. Thank you for sharing!

this is my fave blood angel on youtube, amazing work man. cant wait to try it.

Thank you for sharing this technique. Excellent timing for the release of the upcoming HH boxset but also applicable to plenty of other models. I look forward to seeing more of your tutorials!

Superb! I was already planning to break out my Artis Opus series D set for the new Horus heresy boxset, so absolutely brilliant to see your approach here. Taking so much inspiration from this. Cheers!

Very cool technique with the stripping and the way you applied contrast. Thanks for another tool in the tool box

Found out about your channel yesterday and today I am going to try to emulate what I've learned here with you (a bunch of stuff, in just a matter of hours). You really are a master. Thanks a lot!

Really loved the stippling style for the power armour. Going to be adapting the colours for my word bearers!

I've been looking for Blood Angels tutorials overnight... it's like you knew. Thanks Richard 🙏

Thanks so much for this Richard - BA were my first army back in the RT days and I'm excited about adding some to my HH force. Your style of stippling, washing and a battle worn look is exactly what I am after. Thanks indeed!

My first time watching one of your videos, and I really enjoyed it. It makes me want to give it a go as it’s a style I would never try, but seems very accessible.

Great video, I will sign up to patron soon. After painting dominion for the last few months I am ready for some horus heresy. Keep up the good work.

Your approach makes me want to buy these marines just to paint them! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Just tried this method out on a model and it turned out fantastic, a fun not frustrating process as well which is the best part! Thank you for sharing!

This is a great tutorial, love the finish and hopefully will be faster for when i get the Heresey box set👍☺️

Excellent technique! Really impressive work.

Damn you're good. Love your painting style, it's so crisp.

Great video Richard! Looking forward to seeing how you do your imperial fists

Wahoo, the one I've been waiting for, thanks Richard 👍😁👍

Thank you for another great video, Richard

Love it, looks awesome. I prefer this technique way more than the traditional way of painting. Great video as always Richard🙃🤗

Really looking forward to seeing your approach to painting yellow using these techniques as I don't have access to an airbrush and a few squads to get tabletop ready for the summer. Great work - cheers!

Just to say thanks so much for this video! I have started painting some Blood Angels with it, and absolutely love it - think it's one of the only schemes I have found that replicates the lovely deep, rich red they are sometimes presented as. As an observation, I've found the stripling gives an almost airbrush-like effect at the end. While the contrast wash gives an almost oils-like effect! So this is ideal for someone like me who is too lazy to either airbrush or use oils! So thanks so much, you have saved me a lot of time and effort!

This is great, so much so that I’ve dug out the Betrayal at Calth Chaplain to attempt to imitate your technique. I’m away with work for a few days and want to start Blood Angels again, they were my second Ed army

I also liked in advance lol because these videos are constantly feckin awesome. Great job Richard

Amazing and inspiring as usual !👍

Absolutely superb.

great tutorial, as always! i would love to see your approach on a true metal armor. please, do one!

lovely! great idea with the dabbing paint

what a video. thankyou very much. amazing work

Defiantly going to use this for my normal Blood Angels.

Excellent video, I hope you do more HH videos in the future 👍🏻

Hey Richard, I found this guide and absolutely love it. However I often struggle to translate an infantry scheme over to vehicles. Contemptors are fine but tanks and flyers are more challenging because of all the harsh angles. Would doing a guide for how to ‘scale-up’ a scheme be something you would consider doing?

Excellent tutorial Richard, I'll echo what others have said and say I'd love some tips or a video on how to translate this over to a vehicle!

Brilliant!

That is beautiful

Love it first time watching your video very cool effect doing the stippling dropped you a sub

Gorgeous

Looks great, definetely going to use this approach when the box releases. Im wondering how it would look like with the forgeworld BA heads... just too many beaks in one box.

Superb 👌

Very nice.

Citadel equivalents for the gun highlights could be corvus black and dark reaper, or mix mechanicus standard grey into the dark reaper.

Superb!

Totally awesome

very nice!

Could we have a video on painting Heresy World Eaters

Impresionante tecnica

Wonderful video with an amazing result. I don't use airbrushes and tend to avoid using oils and this is exactly the sort of channel and video I'd expect. I see lots of other content creators from the community using far too wide a variety of tools and paints to achieve their effects and not all of us have a wall of a thousand paints and all the tools needed to achieve the same degree of results that they do. This is a fantastic, grimdark, worn looking addition to any army and has SO much character compared to the rather flat looking standard GW tutorials and has won you a sub from me. I know this video is several weeks old now and I just recently watched your Imp-fists video using similar techniques. Would love to see the 'other side' of the box set. Any chance of a Sons of Horus video to follow up? I've been a life long loyalist- but dipped my toe into the heretic pool for this release and would love to create an army of the Sons with a similar aesthetic and level of quality. I think it would look amazing on a shelf or on any table. Not expecting a response of course, but letting you know what I personally would love to see! Top class videos and will be recommending to everyone in the hobby that I know!

Really love your videos and particularly find your narration informative and interesting. Thank you! Were you to use an oil wash for Blood Angels, what colour would you suggest?

Awesome, had a go at this and it turned out really nice. Definitely not as good as this one, and took me a LOT longer than an hour like! But practice makes perfect I guess. Just need to have a go at the battle damage and he's done. Also just used Agrax instead of the contrast paint as I didn't have any of that one lying about. I'm sure I'll get better once the other 19 squadmates are done though..

Amazing Work Richard this is perfect timing. I’ve just got back into painting and had been planning a Blood angel army thanks heap for the tutorial and inspiration. Quick one where did u use the Vallejo mech gloss I don’t recall seeing you use it.

Neat tutorial. Never used contrast as a wash, usually argax earthshade gets that job. Lets see how you do Alpha Legion

I don't often sit through full painting videos but this was great. Love the final effect. Do you have any Blood Angels Vehicle tutorials.?? I'm just a bit cautious to use Contrast on large flat pannels. However I'd love to recreate this effect on say, a Predator or even larger like a Spartan.. Keep up the great work...

Could you PLEASE do one of these quick paint jobs for Sons of Horus? I would be eternally grateful!

I wonder at which point did this video turned into witchcraft... Superb content, as always. Will we be seeing some more Legions' tutorial in a similar manner ? Sons of Horus would perhaps be a fitting choice ?

Awesome guide! Your method is killer, Im about to start a BA army cuz of this video. Did you apply any varnish to the weather dust or was it able to remain straight out of the pot?

Really interesting approach! I must say I was worried there with the Darkoath Flesh :p Say, is there any chance for a Space Wolves Heresy tutorial similar as this? Cheers and fantastic work! Thank you!

This is probably the best Blood Angel scheme I've seen. If you were to use oils instead of the contrast wash what would you use?

Amazing as usual Richard ❤️ These new beakies are too cool! I might "have to" buy some despite the "gray horde" currently amassing on my shelf...

Audio is a bit low had to turn the volume almost all the way up just to hear you other than that love your work and thank you for sharing it

Fantastic work! Would this work on models with larger flat areas like a Spartan (particularly with the contrast paint)

great video, thank you for sharing - question, if you where to use oils instead of the Darkoath Flesh (Contrast), - what would you use?

I recently stumbled upon your Night Lord praetor video and I'm already hooked. This is a gem as well! I've been practicing my drybrushing for my up coming White Scars army. I quite prefer this finish compared to the chalkiness I often end up with while drybrushing (even with a damp brush). Do you reckon this kind of stippling would work with lighter greys on a grey primer, finished off with oils for a "white" armour?

Love the bit more simple tutorial

Hi Richard! I was wondering if you could do a similar technique to paint up an imperial fist, the stippling looks great and I'm looking to collect them for my first 30k venture

Really excellent in style, please could you confirm what contrast paint you would use if doing an army in dark angels green for 40k? Thank you!

Fantastic! You are like the second coming of Christ in the painting community... Dark Angels next maybe? :D

I love German grey. Cheers.

Absolutely fantastic tutorial - need to take this out for a swirl. Never thought to use stippling before. Are you planning on running more tutorials given the build-up to the new edition, like the Sons of Horus?

i hate how good you are

Excellent video and result. Did you fix the pigment powder down at all, or is it still loose?

Looks awesome! If you’d paint it with greens Salamanders style which contrast instead of Darkoath would you use?

This is great - if you were to use oil instead of contrast what rough colour would you aim to mix up?

Beautiful painting as always (I really am envious), but I really have to ask: what is the scale of these compared to the MKIII? As I am working on (among other things), a full model replacement and update for Space Crusade and want to use appropriate armour marks for each chapter.

Awesome as always Rich, what brush are you using? I really struggle to find size 1-0 brushes that have sturdy bristles

Lovely work Richard! I was wondering whether you'd be able to approach painting black armour using a similar technique?

As someone who doesn't really have space for an airbrush setup, this looks incredible! I have to try it! Does it work for vehicles as well?

Nice work! Any tips on painting Necrons with true metallics?

Beautiful - think I’ll give this a try but with purples for some Emperor’s Children. Hope you don’t mind me asking, if you were working with purples, what contrast colour would you use for the shade stage, still Darkoath?

Fantastic 30k blood angels painting. I always wanted to paint in this method. I wonder how you can apply this technic to 30k imperial fist. how is it done for yellow color? thanks for the video!

Hi Richard, im hoping to use this on some Angels Sanguine, which are halved Black and Red, any suggestions on how to do a black to match this style? Would you Black Templar tutorial work do you think?

Great video, I'm going to give this a try. One question about the dust, do you have to 'seal' it or something afterwards?

presumably I can use an oil wash instead of contrast, that amount of it scares me :P

Hey Richard! I was looking for the necron Skorpekh Lord painting video on your website today and couldn't find it at all. Was it removed for some reason? I've subscribed to you there and I used to be able to find it and watch it.

I have a question: could I use something else other than Daroath Flesh Contrast, since I don't use Contrast paints? Would a shade wash do a trick?

Forge world weathering dark sand doesn't seem to exist anymore. Anyone know of a replacement?

Not a fan of space marines or 40k. Love your painting though, still very useful to watch!

can I use streaking grime instead of dark oath flesh?

How would you go about doing this with an airbrush please?

How do you keep the paint from drying so fast on the brush? I always end up with dried paint specs on the bristles after a couple of brush strokes...

That colors would you use to do this with an Emperor's children marine?

Are there any replacements for the weathering powder? I don't think FW do it any more.

darkoath? would agrax or seraphim not work?
