I used to make videos about miniatures, a mix of tutorial videos and product reviews. I haven't made any in a while, and probably won't be in the future, sorry.
Some people like my voice, some people hate it, you should watch a video or two and decide for yourself.

This guide was almost perfect. Seems like you glossed over the hardest part. Magnetizing the right shoulder
New to warhammer painting. This video is amazing for a beginner like me.
for me, doing a thick coat of crackle paint only makes the crackle does not show the paint that's under them...
The 360's are really helpful, thanks!
I recommend always priming your pallet also to see how the paint will react the primer and subsequently the model.
This will be my first time trying something like this. I'm just waiting for some clippers I ordered to arrive in 4 days. Really appreciate this video. Please wish luck.
3 years later people are converting back lol 😂
Did this last night as I'm so fed up of dried paint wasting away my money, so glad I did it, I used just the flow aid and it worked perfectly, I like to add my thinner to the airbrush cup before the paint and when I'm using a brush I like my paints to sit up a bit on my palette so they don't dry out but its not only so much better to use it also looks so much nicer on my paint shelf having the bottles match the rest of my paints.
I bought the age of sigmar magazine after making 40k stuff for about 1year gonna give age of sigmar ago.
The first miniature I painted was a warhammer mini and now he sits on display at my local game store in the diorama they made along with a few other minis i painted after him
This video Great! It helped me so much painting this set! Thank you
great tutorial, Thank you! You sound so similar to another great teacher of a different hobby on youtube @phillygoldenteacher accents probably different but.....
Thank you!
May not get an answer but what was the strategy for making the popsicle stick ridges?
I don't think I had a particularly specific strategy when making the notches other than trying to keep them vaguely even. I may have compared them to the distance on the actual blood bowl boards to get a vague idea of the size that they're supposed to be, but basically just went along perpendicular to the popsicle stick cutting in deep enough that I had clear seperation between the bottom and top of the notches and then used my knife to pop out every other tooth.
GW should hire you, these videos of yours are providing a much better out of the box tutorial as the official ones!
With Static grass do you need to have an applicator for it?
Depends on the look you are going for. If you are wanting really trim and well kept grass that is all standing up, then yes. For something like Blood Bowl bases, where it will have being trodden upon so should look a bit squashed and unkempt, I generally don't, and just use an old brush to fluff it up if it is looking to flat before the glue dries.
"we created this tactical paint so you can fix our crappy quality models by paying us even more money" -gw
I also dislike green stuff liquid, i roll a small piece of 2 part green stuff putty. I tried miliput, but its too sticky to start with, but after a bit loses some of the stickyness. As a note, you can also use thin superglue to fill a seam. Just add some into a seam, then add more after to fill up the seam or gap. It can be sanded down or scrape smooth after
Great vid!
A lil tip. If possible use that glue on the gaps before you prime or paint it. I touched up some spots I forgot and got paint on my Tamiya glue brush !. I rushed to clean it so the bristles are not stuck together and painted.
Use. Air-dry clay mixed with glue. Then, run a bit of sand paper over it. Think... 20 dollars I got 200 bases
I really enjoyed that video bro, thanks a lot.
I really want this paint set but I think they stop selling them
One year on and this still slays. Cheers bud, my Stikki Krowz will look class after this!
Random question...is it easy to glue your model over already painted bases?
It is possible. The potential issue is going to be that now you are glueing the model to paint instead of the material of the base itself. This isn't too much of an issue with traditional paint jobs because the paint is normally pretty secure and/or plastic cement will melt acrylic paint too, so you can get a strong bond. That being said, when using a crackle paint like this, since it tends to be more prone to flaking, I would attach the model first, or use a bit blue tack or something to mask when painting the base to leave where the model is going to connect free of paint, so you can get a strong bond there.
Nice video :) Do you know if the sand coloured vallejo primer has the same issues with big particles as vallejo white primer? :)
I have used sand and bone primers from Vallejo and I think they are smoother than the white, especially if well shaken.
Great video, I have suscribed to your channel! One question, is it possible to use Gesso as a primer? And do you have a video about using primers?
I am not definitely sure, but I suspect not, for using gesso as a primer on minis. Gesso is generally used for priming canvas and boards, aka flat surfaces that don't get handled alot after painting. It is composed of chalk/gypsum, binder, and pigments, so tend to be inflexible. Primers used for minis are often a mix of acrylic and polyurethane, so are more flexible and designed to chemically bind with plastic. I am pretty sure this video is my best video on priming.
@@SleepyWhatsIt Thank you for the answer!
Ok so I got the assault intercessor pack will that paint last me awhile for space marines I'm gonna get nuln oil and a red silver and blood for the blood god cause I'm new
I know this is an old video but I gotta say thanks showcasing how to go around painting minis, one question I have is alot of tutorials regarding the stormcast eternals is no one covers the ones without helmets, do you know what kind of paint to use on their heads because the only one I have seen so far is cadian flesh something and that doesnt come in the starter set
Glad you found it helpful 😄 If you have just the 6 paints from this kit, I think you're going to have a very difficult time trying to paint any type of natural human skin tone. This is because there are no reds or even warm tones in this and that's pretty essential for painting skin tones. You might be able to pull off an other worldly tone using white with a bit of blue, but that could go sideways pretty quick. If you have access to the paints from the Orruk starter set, that includes a light brown and a red. So combined with the white from this set, you probably could start mixing to get something that would be a usable skin tone. But in general skin tones are one of those paints that you end up with a lot of different variations of because the human eye is really good for picking out issues with skin tone. So you just end up with a lot of them to make up a good looking skin (I normally build my storm cast with helmets on to avoid painting faces 😅). The classic tanned caucasian skin tone recipe using Citadel paints is Base in Bugman's Glow, Wash with Reikland Fleshtone, Layer with Cadian Fleshtone, Highlight with Kislev Flesh. If you want lighter, start with Cadian as your base, if want darker start with something like Knight Questor, or even darker, and adjust your layer and highlight appropriately.
Thank you
Your welcome 😁
Thank you, I have just started to get in the hang of war hammer and I am enjoying it. This guide helped a lot thanks ❤
Glad you found it helpful 😁
This is so cool!
Thanks!
Love this guide, its perfect for what im doing!
Glad you enjoy it!
Thanks for the video, I wanted to see what was the magazine about, I just started with a Necrons Warriors+Paint set and even though I haven't finished painting the three Necrons I'm already thinking on the next set, so I think it will be the Starter Elite, I like the Lore, I love the figures and painting them, but I'm not yet into the game, but that Elite set comes with a lot of stuff/figures so I think it is absolutely worthy
Glad I could help!
Good tutorial, really helped with my paint scheme. I'll also add that something that helps me with necrons is gluing the gun arms together, the head to the chest, and leaving the rest unattached. These skelly bois have some hard to reach areas and it definitely helps doing it that way
I agree that painting in subassemblies is generally the way to go. It is has been a while since I made this video, but I suspect I went with fully assembling in it either a) to make the steps simpler to follow for a new painter, or b) what little instructions were provided with the kit did full assembly.
Managed to get my first ever miniature painted with this! Thank you very much! <3
no crackle paint ive ever used crackles like that
yeah, even using pva under it doesnt make it crackle that much.
This video is a masterpiece, thank you! I have a question, if I can: the "Death Guard Green" spray paint can be used as a primer? (or, are primer colours different from other spray colours?) Thank you!
I legitmately don't know for sure. GW doesn't explicitly say they are a primers, but does list undercoating as one of their uses, which sounds like they are supposed to be used for priming. And GW doesn't really have any other products that are a true primer. I think a lot of people are using them for priming, but I generally don't use rattle cans, so I cannot say for sure. I hesistate from saying yes, because in my understanding of acrylic paints, primers are chemically different from standard acrylics. Specifically normal acrylics bond with other acrylics better than other plastics (like the polystyrene of the model), so will have a tendency to chip and flake off of the model if directly applied to it. A primer is normally a mix of acrylic and another chemical/paint that binds to the surface of the model well, but acrylic paint also binds to it well. Think of it as kinda a glue between the paint and the model. Because GW isn't explicitly saying that their sprays are primers, I am unsure if that means a) they are just straight acrylic and are just an easier method for base coating, or b) they are actually primer, but they don't want to distringuish between base paints and primers for some reason. tl;dr I am not sure, and I don't want you to be led astray by me saying that yup they are a primer and then have models that wear easily. I think people do use them as primer, but I don't know how well that actually works.
@@SleepyWhatsIt Wow, thank you so much anyway! ;)
thankyou so much for this!
Glad it was helpful!
Found this video looking for inspiration for kitbash challenge me and a friend doing and I wanted my guy sorta striding over lava and this helped a lot thanks!!
Hopefully it helps your model look awesome.
Thank you it was very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Straight up blew my mind.
the two legs connecting together, theres a connection key underneath. Also, AoS: Dominion box set is still available and has better value than the starter sets.
thank you very much for this video you are very educational and it will help me in painting my figurines.
You're very welcome!
Just wondering if I can use my white primer and then use the starter paints?
White primer should work fine. You don't get 'free' shading from it, so the overall look might be a touch brighter than if you use a black. And missed areas in the recesses will be more obvious, since they will be white.
@@SleepyWhatsIt I think I'm just going to buy black primer, is the army painter matte black primer ok?
Probably. I haven't used it personally, but I am not aware of any specific complaints about it. I tend to use Reaper or Vallejo primers, but that is mostly what is easiest for me to get.
Thanks for the tips. Took 3-4 tries. You really have to apply a lot and very thick so that the crust looks like yours. It feels excessive how thick you have to apply. Underestimated how much. Now it looks great. Thanks for your video.
Glad it was helpful!
How have the magnets held up over the years? Do the magnetized parts fall off on accident? Great video!
These specific models I ended up selling like 6 months after doing this video, since the army I was planning on building got shelved for other projects 😅 So cannot comment on their specific durability. Other models, like Space Marines, I have used the same style and number of magnets, and have been happy with them. If you try to pick up the model by magnetized piece they might come loose, but from general handling and moving they normally stay secure. Might get turned/need to be adjusted if they get bumped, but any one magnetic point set will be prone to turning.
Thanks. This is Very helpful and practical video for Priming. as a Gundam guy who didn't know even the word "Priming", i learned a lot now.
Glad it helped!
