Great video, really liked the inclusion of the planning steps, good to show the thought process that goes into a painting plan. Amazing how a slightly different perspective can massively speed up the process and improve the result. Cheers gents!
Love the vids/content. Any chance you could recommend a quick/dirty recipe for white power armor in a similar table top quickly standard? Keeping with the World Eater vibes.
An absolute trove of army painting advice and tips here. The golden one being, if you can do as many base colours that like the same wash first then you're saving so much time with an all over wash. These units have come out looking superb. Also I'm still trying to clean that black speck off my phone screen 😋
I appreciate the closeups of the paint application, which shows paint getting into other places - like the red getting onto the gold trim. A lot of times, channels make it seem like such a thing never happens to them. It's nice to see that great painters are also human.
Khorne are one of the best AOS armies to paint up quickly. I did 2000 points in a couple of weeks, compared to usual where that many models would take me months at least or more than a year lol. I think they're good for someone getting started in building and painting because they look cool but there isn't too much random weird stuff to worry about.
Did you do the box art red scheme? If yes, I'd love any extra tips you might have, cause I have a Bloodbound army to paint next year! 😬 can't decide if I should do classic or contrast paint for example
This is a brilliant painting breakdown, simple, effective, but most of all incredibly easy to follow along. Maybe it's Mr Peachy's soothing voice haha, in all seriousness though awesome video. Also I want a series of those two guardsmen, that was brilliant 🤣👏.
Yep, this is the one. I've been agonising over which method to use to paint my new World Eaters, but fundamentally I'm a lazy painter. Was considering zenithal painting, or doing what I did with my Blades of Khorne Warcry band and layering reds up painstakingly (which looks great if you're only doing nine models but for an entire WE army would be a bit of a chore). As it turns out I have all these paints (or equivalents) and the results look great for a very simple set of techniques. Great video, cheers.
I've found that another great way to do blood splatter effects is to take blood for the blood God technical paint on your brush, hold it in front of your miniature, and spray towards it in a left to right motion with a spray duster canister, because it's messy and random it looks a lot more realistic than applying it directly to certain areas with a brush or sponge.
Edit: I want to mention the miniature should either also be held in the same hand as the brush on a painting handle or held down on a flat surface by something like blue tack as the force of the spray duster can send the miniature flying across your hobby space.
Was scratching my head on how to tackle my blood warriors that came in the vanguard set for the AOS khorne models. Video helped a ton, spray priming the metallics first is a great idea because hand painting trim SUCKS. Great stuff mate, keep it up!
Apparently metallic sharpies are really good on the trim for chaos marines. If you base/prime in your chosen black or red color instead, take a gold sharpie and can knock out the gold trim in like 5 minutes. A couple guys in my hobby group have done that and shared pics.
How do I eliminate the decades of hard-coded perfectionism that keeps me from painting quickly? Do I need therapy? I hope my father won't judge my painting.
I've been thinking about it and I'm going to call Peachy's method the "working class paint job." It's not quick and dirty speed painting, nor is it fancy-pants detailed painting. It's a paint method for the regular ol' jackoff who wants their minis to look good but not take ages.
It feels like you are gonna say this 2 more minutes past the point where I paused to comment... With the way you are doing that all over shade, you could go ahead and paint skin and leather bits a base coat too. That shade color would work reasonably well for them. Minutes later. You did, lmao.
Lovely painting guide, as always! One quick question: I noticed Peachy put the Contrast paint on a wet-pallet during the process; wouldn't that just water it down too much in the long run, or is it one of those "sneaky tricks" that crops up over a lifetime of churning through armies? :D
Oh wow, spraying gold then going in with the red makes so much sense looking at all that trim, I never would have thought of doing it that way! Thanks!
After the initial test model, all the paints are mentioned in the top left of the screen. We normally produce a list and script but this one was rather in the fly. I hope you can work along with it.
Thank you so much. This has legitimately been the most digestable, easy to follow 40k tutorial I've ever seen. Bravo! I was just curious, do you think this method would also work for a Khorne Bloodbound army? I have the start collecting box for AOS and want to paint the warband but am not sure if this would break the cohesion as Blood Reavers/Khorgorath don't have basically any of the gold trim. I know it's an old video but any help would be appreciated!
@@thepaintingphase keep going, you doing great, looking forward to the necromunda battles and more chat. Love that you are having guests on, as I'm a big fan of MS paints too. Do you have any more crossovers lined up?
Im literally stuck in the mud, half my bezerkers are trimmed in Runelord Brass, the others in Retributor Gold. STILL CANT DECIDE IF I WANT THE BLING OR NOT THEY BOTH LOOK AMAZING
You seem like you have a lot more passion for this chanel in comparison to when you were painting for GW!! And it speaks a lot to how the models are coming out 👏
Best way to get through it would either be do less in a batch or in my case double the batch and Zen out to some background music and let time slip away.
Like the way the biscuits slowly decreased over time. Nice touch lol Great work BTW, would pick your brain for hours on painting schemes, inspiration, etc Would you ever consider covering doing world eaters for Horus heresy era? I'm working on a scheme, but giving it a broad covering of grime and blood (ofcourse)
I tend to take the slap all the basecoats down before an all over wash, either agrax, flesh shade or more recently hit em with gloss varnish and use enamel washes. The enamel washes route needs a little more cleanup but doesn't require lifting any of the colours. Then just a quick edge highlight and any effects.
