The Most Detailed Space Marines Ever Made SPEED PAINTED 

Jay one week ago: "I'm going to try not to paint so many models this year" Also Jay:

This is the thing delightful about "speed painting", Jay is finding a way to produce miniatures the way he likes them in a timely manner, which is just an excuse to get to do more of the good stuff he loves! Good on you man, this has actually been pretty inspirational, and it has me thinking I should do the same with my shadow collective stuff I am steadily building.

As someone who’s been looking for a good way to do power swords, that technique is something that a painter as mediocre myself needed. Thanks man great video.

Wish I could paint that good that quick... Well done man !

Jay: “I don’t wanna spend 60-70-80 hours painting them” Also Jay: “But I really wanna play them” Also Also Jay: *Has not played a single 40K 9th edition game in over a year”

Jay: Wears an apron to keep his clothes clean Also Jay: Wipes brush on his jumper Very nice video - i felt your excitement through it all - it all came out looking lush - nice control on the contrast/speed paints - def the hardest part in using contrast paints is keeping it between the lines

"Let me tell a tale of the mighty Sword Brethren of the Black Templars, first amongst equals. This particular group of fierce individuals, heroes of the Imperium all, is led by the mighty Chapter Champion ASSBLASTER6498, honored be his name"

As someone who hates how much time it takes me to paint my models to my standard I loved this video, your approach is streamlined but not basic

Man, the way you painted the gold...IS GOLD. It looks old and sacred, amazing!!

They came out great! I just have to say, I love that you wear an apron, yet still dry your brush on your sleeve/shoulder. A true painters touch lol

Technically you did it in 4 hours because I watched the video at x2 speed 🎨🥴

Nothing better than an surprise Black Templars video to kick off the day! Can’t get enough of them!🤘🏻🔥🎉

I gotta ask. Where are the heads from?

Not only are your Templars some of the best painted… but you love the mk7 helmet which makes you my ultra favorite.

I like how the swords went out. They look very good

I bought them and built them January last year. I was afraid if painting them too, but decided to jump in this October. It took me a month if my free time but they are my favourite space marines I own right now. Such great models.

Looking awesome mate! The airbrush sword technique truly is a time saver

That dark armor mix looks perfect for something I have been meaning to do. Thank you!

You ever get excited over a color scheme until you see the final product and instantly regret your choice?

Those look INCREDIBLE! I love how the swords came out.

I like the cloaks versus the tabbards for different reasons. The cloaks are very smooth and noble, whereas the tabbards look like they are made from some kind of rough-spun cloth.

i like the time extension you gave yourself, and that you filmed it. i would also like to see what you end up doing in your next 9 hours on these.

seeing you sit at your table like my toddler with your apron is so wholesome always appreciate how, you, you are

Wish I could speed paint my word bearers. I do use army painters chaotic red spray but there's nothing speedy about that trim

For 8 hours, those look stellar. Definitely going to be trying some of these tips for my emperors children

Only our big boy’s Black Templars would suffice as the first painting vid of the year

As a person who doesn’t really buy models to make a army but more so to paint each model to competition standerd these are amazing to go all out but still have plenty of detail to show skill

Every time I watch one of your videos I leave with a smile on my face. Thanks for being you.

Wearing an apron and soaking the excess moisture of the brush off your shirt instead - priceless 😂. Great vid. Keep it up :)

those marines look fabulous!

love these minis

Please I need to know how do you keep yourself supplied with first-born helmets for your primaris models

Love this vid! Jay, how about a deeper more detailed tutorial on this airbrush power sword technique?

Do all the right selves of your shirts have paint streaks on them? Thanks gents!! They look great!! Fantastic as always!

honestly, i love leaving the figures in their surface primer grey. As soon as i touch it with a paint brush i fuck it up

Man, they look sweeeet. Love that sword technique. Gonna use that on all my power swords now.

I just got my wisdom teeth taken out so my mouth is full of gauze and hurts a lot but coming home and seeing this was great! Thanks for making my recovery a bit better. You’re making me want to heal up quicker so I can get painting.

These are lovely! Very striking especially for the time spent. Imperator vult.

Great colors. The sword masking turned great.

I'm working up my Sword Brethren right now! Then on to a Bladeguard squad!!

The shoulder shields are likely based on besagews, which were a small shield medieval knights had on either of their shoulders, they would protect their armpits when they raised their arms to swing in battle.

4:47 I audibly sighed and said "Oh Jay cmon!" XD

Def gon use this as inspiration! I just bought a bunch of Blood Angel units and I still had some others i bought last year still in progress.

Finally you paint in a video bless the emperor

Your black is a bit grey for my taste but because you pump the red up so much it looks great. This, I feel, is your strength. You're willing to try things out (eventually ;)) and have the vision to pull a model together.

can't wait to do this to mine! Firstborn helmets ftw

that airbrush "nmm" / powersword trick came out amazing! I neeed to try that out!

Cant thank you enough for the power sword method. Absolute game changer

Bro this is exactly what I was looking for. Slapchop black templar and its even SB and its one of my fav channels. Poifect

They look fantastic ...

I went with bone armor, black tabards, and red trim. There’s a lot of head canon on why they have bone colored armor and the process was a blast.

Your love for Black Templars is very TEMPting to create my own army!

im stealing that armour recipe for my chaos warriors! cheers they look great!

The powersword pattern you're using is "crystal." It's fun and looks great, but as alternative effects, molten, ghost, lightning....all power weapons. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 🤘Tremendous effort for 8-9 hours!

I may get jumped on for this but I think some of your "corner cutting techniques" are detrimental. However, that being said, I still love watching your videos because you have some pretty interesting techniques to learn/steal and the overall final product does come out looking pretty great despite personal preferential nitpicks. As a fellow long time Templar player, I've been watching your crusade slowly grow in both size and technique.. and it's been very enjoyable for me. Hope to see many more Templar showcases and painting videos. 10,000 years and going strong, keep up the great work!

Thats crazy, looking good!

with the blades I would try doing the blue after, or doing a blue ink afterwards to add more of a fade to the colours. but as you explained at the end I like that idea and it does look like that.

THE SWORDS hell yes gonna do this

In only 9 hours painting like this is amazing I would like painting on this level.

The thing with slapchop, is if you don't keep inside the lines and you get speedpaint where different speedpaint should be then you're in trouble. You can't paint over speedpaint with speedpaint, and because you're painting over a zenithal you can't just go back to the primer colour. As a serial and irredeemable mistake maker it's just no use to me, though those with more accurate hands can no doubt get great value out of it.

They look wonderful. I’m probably going to have to get them for my Templars army. Now to find a source of Army Painter speed paint that isn’t just the big complete set….

For gold, just basecoat in a silver of your choice and cover it with a thin coat of AP speed paint yellow.

Set a tough goal and accomplished the real goal of getting them all painted quicker than usual to a satisfying standard

7:04 i like the hand painted ones more than the airbrushed ones

i use your black templar armor recipe for my black armored legion too lol, it works so well!

Damn it Jay. I never paid much attention to these when they released because I don't play Black Templars, I don't want to start a new army and frankly, I have too much to do already (I have the following armies to start/ finish; Tau, Imperial Guard, Leagues of Votaan and my Horus Heresy Imperial Fists which will join a smaller 40k force to create something much larger. And that's just my 40k, not my Kill Team, AoS, Adeptus Titanicus or MESBG armies.) And yet, watching this, I think these models are incredible. So good I may have to get some. And even though I don't collect black Templar and I don't want to start a new Space Marine Army, I can't help but find a loophole in Black Templars being a Second Founding Chapter of my trusty Imperial Fists. So maybe in the future I was see a little splodge of black in my sea of yellow.

They look amazing and you're amazing ✊👍👊

I’m gonna try that airbrush power sword trick since I’ve never been able to do it with brushing my hand

Nice ultramarines bro!

Not bad at all for 8 hours, great work Jay!

@EonsOfBattle This isn't specifically about this video but it kind of fits here and I don't think I can remember seeing a previous video where it has come up. Do you varnish your models at all when you're done, particularly with the contrast/speed paint heavier paintjobs? I'm fairly new to painting, so have yet to play a lot with my models to see what kind of wear I would get on them, but it's a thing I keep hearing people recommend doing and was curious what your thoughts are on finishing models with some kind of sealant.

This kind of video's is the reason this is my favorite youtuber.

Gj. When it comes to powerswords ive always just figured since they are wrapped in energy they would appear to be akin to lightsabers. So i just wetblend mine. Got it down to it taking a minute or 2 per sword for "massproduced" boyos. You can ofcourse fiddle with lots of washes and layering and highlights and such but i save that for the chunky boys that stand on the shelf.

Thanks! More BT pls! 🎉

I only bought a box of these because of your video here. I will Start airbrush only because of this video.. U made me a black templar fan! I love u. Maybe i will buy Leviathan 😆

"Men really like it when you glob it on" Bender Bending Rodriguez

Great video jay and you did speed paint as you painted more models in a tenth of the time! And those power swords look beyond belief!

Video posted yesterday… sword brethren buff announcement today…. Coincidence? Either way, Jay, these are freaking awesome and give us “just barely intermediate painters” a lot to work with to level up with. I will be watching this on repeat while I do mine!

I think your nails look pretty good in gold

Good job you painted all of those marines in the time it takes me to paint one intercessor. God Emperor I wish this was a joke.

I’m painting up a crusader squad right now they are a challenge but very therapeutic, I did my sword brethren in about 3 days

does anyone know which fisr born heads these are or where Jay got them @EonsOfBattle

Great video and the results are fantastic. I think "speed painting" as a concept is kind of muddled. For me it's about saving my sanity by cheating some of the bigger areas and giving myself lots of time on a few detail areas where the eye will be drawn to.

The powerswords look dope. I love the technique you used. Great innovation on

This video is great because it gives me a idea of how to do mine, do more Black Templar videos please

I just went through this exact process with my new Black Templar squads.

How can I get the great helmets!?!? This are kitbashed or not???

This was incredibly satisfying to watch!

Hi i just started collecting warhammer 40k and spotted your video, your models look amazing!

5:21 the cloth is called a surcoat

inspired to get black templar now!

Gorgeous models, will be stealing the recipe for my Black Templars lol

I remember when the GW paints were in the bigger jars with the screw on lids for $2, or $3 for metallics.

If the Sigmarines had a black templar equivalent I might be interested

Well I do happen to have a few unpainted BG veterans so I guess I’ll be trying this power sword painting technique with the new airbrush set up I got for Christmas

ohhh wow jay they look amazing ill need to try your sword technique my weakness is power swords annnnd everything else paint related

You might like daler rowney Payne's grey ink for an alternative black similar to speed paint

I really specficly wanna see how you do the bases for your black templar with the desert and folioge

Any ideas where these pre-made bases are available? They look fantastic! Love this whole scheme, great job 👍.

THey came out great!
