The Fanciest Helmets of WWII: Painting Warlord Games' Bersaglieri! [How I Paint Things] 

Hi Sonic, I just Wanted you to Know, That your „How I paint Things“ on white Scar Space marines was a key Element in my decision Not only to begin to Build a 40k army but to Start the whole Hobby. I‘m happily and - big thanks to you - easily painting aswell as Gaming since than. My 2000 points is Near to completion and for someone who barely held a brush 20 years Ago it Looks amazing! Without your encouraging videotutorials and achievable technics I would probably have given up before finishing the first Mini... Big Thank you, keep up the Great work and Liebe Grüße nach Berlin!

Whenever anyone mention "the correct shade of field grey" (or olive drab, or any of the uniform colors, really), I remember the image I had of 10-15 german uniform jackets from ww2. I don't think any 2 of them were the same color...

My western desert Bersaglieri will benefit greatly from your feather painting method, thank you so much!

Thank you , Troy . 🐺

Great work, I love how different those three field greys are, it proves the idea that you can never have enough greens or browns

In mid '30s italian army tried to modernize the uniform, but probabilly for financial priblems, they stopped to the first half, so this was the reason of a new helmet & jacket, with pants & puttees as in WWI. Nice tutorial about the various shades of grey green, also if normally, from early colour photos, the blitzkrieg's field jacket of the Wermacht was a more grayish colour, then became greener, on the contrary, our army didn't changed a lot, naturally it depends also by the production batch and the quality of the cloth.

This was a big help and I especially liked your advice on thinning the new Agrax Earthshade 50/50 with the medium. Thanks for sharing this.

Nicely done. I like Vallejos Stone Grey too. Like you said it works really good for high lighting. I've had good luck using it for dry brushing too.

I appreciate all the very scientific and technical terminology in this video

Lovely job. I much prefer the "non-desert" uniforms. I have some feathers I've been putting off painting, so time try this.

Love the paint scheme on these guys. Well done on the paint job.

And another excellent video! I've never painted Italians before, but maybe I'll give it a try.. Thank you for all your content. Best regards, Andreas

Wonderful looking! Thank you for sharing.

sorry to contradict you about the History of the Bersaglieri. They weren't a substitute of the cavalry, The kingdom of Italy had his Cavalry regimets, some of them still active today, I know this because in my city there's the Cavalry school, offcourse now they use Tanks but there're still active stables. Plus the cavalry saw action in its pure form until WW2. The Kingdom of Sardinia, we are talking pre unification of italy, had 6 cavalry regiments, 2 of wich survived after WW2. So the bersaglieri were and are a normal Light infantry/sharp shooter regiment with fancy hat and feathers, they were never, by design, meant to substitute the cavalry :) Other than that you painting guide are absolutelly on point, i love your painting :)

Fantastic Bersaglieri!!🥂

thanks for sharing your tips & tricks! I appreciate the way you toss in some history, techniques and materials while keeping the project fun. Please consider doing this same tutorial for the Greek Army. I am building one now using Studio Historia model.

The same thing happened to me with the new Agrax. Except I used contrast medium with it.😅 Great content as always👍🏽🎃😊

Really like the variation in the grey greens on german uniforms (and equivalent on allied uniforms). I don't have the full range of camo colours like you buy achieve something similar by getting the variation by chucking a couple of coats of wash on a single base colour. e.g. for DAK mix up the desert camo and with original Europe camo by just whacking athonian camoshade over the top of the khaki/sand colour. Gives it a nice worn look too over the light base colour.

For the advice alone, about how to make the new Agrax like the old one, this video is great :D

Looking great. 😅

Lovely vid as per usual, are you likely to paint up AUS jungle commandos any time soon?

Just hours ago I learned about the existence of them through another video. Weird 😊

Where were those links about the history of the Bersaglieri? 👀 Appreciated, and loved the tutorial!

Now I need more field grey

Another great video. Why didn't you use Aly's Brown Liquid for shading?

love it

"Se deve fare qualcosa, un Bersagliere la fa correndo!" (If he has to do something, a Bersagliere does it while running!). Well, my dear sergeant major, try painting a miniature "a passo di corsa" (at running pace). I'll stay in my comfy seat, with my LED lamp, and the paint pots/palette properly arranged on the desk, thank you very much.

Are the Bersaglieri desert Uniforms any different then the regular army desert uniforms you already did a video on?

Superb! Can you tell me what matt lacquer you used please, was it rattle can, airbrushed or brush painted? Many thanks 👍✌️🤔😊

I watched this entire tutorial just for the feathers lol.

What's the brush you're using with the orange handle?
