Hello friends!
Jon is a guy that got into the mini painting hobby later in life, but quickly fell in love! He creates videos that combine two of his favorite things: painting and talking. He doesn't take anything in life too seriously, so why should painting tutorials be any different?
Why am I talking in the third person?

Thank you so much for the useful tip of contrast paint on the "bullshit" details. love you jon you make me laugh :)
12.22 I lost it. that SMOKE OMG. Dude.... extra flex.
Before and after looks amazing :)
Somebody recently watched an old Batman Movie ;)
Hey, thanks for this awesome video and bringing the color cubes to my attention! Just recently I was grumbling again that I didn't seem to be able to find the right color. But thanks to your video that will hopefully be a thing of the past soon 😊
I would very much appreciate a necromunda video.
When getting my Skaven spearhead ready I will probably use version 1 or 3. But would love to know what you think about a lighter priming (eg. grey or brown) to speed it up even more?
Loved the 1989 Batman reference 😊
Excellent vid! Its good to have a habit breaking exercise every so often to break out of our self imposed rigidity. Even though you used different methods your colors all work together within the same army. Maybe the importance of the model, or unit (troops, specialists, heroes), should dictate the method. The purple under lit color method might be a cool way to tie a whole unit together, even though they share the same colors as another nearby unit. That could also be a handy way to keep units distinct from each other in big horde armies.
you know a true plastic addict when they smell the fresh sprues...
Great helpful demonstration and explanation. I'm just finishing a Mini troll from Archon Studios. I primed in black, and "Surprise,!" all my colors turned out dulled and dark. Mmm. There might be a lesson here. Watching you overlap and blend colors has been a bit inspirational for working on the next mini I paint.
Soft serve brown is crazy 😂
Rad vid. Super helpful to help construct a plan for creating a scheme. Now to choose the final path… They all look wicked haha.
I like the third approach because it gives a unified look all over the army. Maybe I'll find an army project where I dare to try it myself.
everytime I paint over a contrast or speed paint it bleeds into my paint. Do you varnish over your speed paints first before going over it?
Using different skin/fur colors and shades definitely makes the process of painting an army more fun. I've been doing just that for a number of werewolves I'm painting now.
God damn it you might tempt me to the Redwall Ninja faction...
Your mistake was not selling all your warhammer stuff while it still had some value.
wow, that actually happened to me. I was invited to present my work at a convention and had to print and paint models for 30 days straight. I haven't painted another model for a year and a few months now...
On your first attempt you would have probably gotten much better results if instead of a black primer you used a grey primer, still gives your shadows but the highlights pop better
HA.. a fidget popper!!... tha bomb for using speedpaints right!!
4:20 I wish every company used hex numbers for colors and it was standardized.
Professional 👍
all three look incredible. I wish I had your talent. This standard of paint would take me hours... will nevertheless carry on! im also gonna give wetblending a shot. It also felt encouraging that you were painting "straight from the pot" as I always feel guilty doing this! Even though I painted for 25years this way before my wet palette. keep up the great content. I still have SO much grey....
The blends on the rat-priest's cloak are really clean, I may actually try that out!
Where are these auctions?
with you 100% on using contrast & 1 edge highlight on all the little b*llsh*t details.
I wish people played this near me but if they do i cant find them. My local game store plays yugioh and single session pathfinder
That would be a really heavy toilet seat. Like you could probably break the toilet with a solid gold toilet seat.
Of the three, I think I like the priest the best, although the metallics on the first one look great. I'll definitely be borrowing the technique of underpainting with white to help glowing details pop better.
That big bug turned out to be awesome good job 👍
LOL not him smelling the plastic I’m so dead 😂
its wild how much this dude looks like tim robbins also why would any one pay for any tutorials anymore when theyre all free on here from amazing people who just want to share their knowledge and hopefully make a living doing it./\]
Given how well pure gold conducts heat, a solid gold toilet seat is gonna be pretty dang cold in the winter time. Just sayin'
Plastic injection molds can very easily cost 100K USD, so if they had those laying around from way back when, why spend money on new molds? People are clearly gonna buy this product no matter what, its almost free money spinning up old molds. If I was running GW and beholden to the shareholders, this is a no brainer move.
Smash chop implies the existence of a pass chop
It's hard for me to justify half-assing my minis. They are too expensive for slapchop or something similar. Sure, I paint less because of it but I would hate to see my figures getting a rush job.
Id love to see a series based on picking through and finding interesting color schemes
The plague monk approach is great
Can we call this method RatChop?
The price of hobby paint is so ridiculous that I personally would never consider buying it... if you buy this set at it's cheapest price I've found (about $600) then you are paying roughly $400 per gallon for paint. yeah, not gonna happen. the moment you see a "hobby company" offer anything for sale you already know your being raked over the coals x 100.
I would love to see a follow up video to this with 3 more techniques: contrast over zenithal, basecoat + oil wash, and something else? That would cover the vast majority of speed painting skills overall, I think. ❤
I love/hate the montage music
Here's me, stepping in to be *that guy* - the blending on the plague priest/monk was stunning. But they supposed to be absolutely filthy and diseased. Clan Pestilens is all dirty robes, pus, vomit, bile, poop and other disgusting stuff. The robes were simply too clean and too smooth - they should never look that tidy. Save your smooth, clean wet blending for Moulder flesh tones and grey seer robes. :)
Sarah Renee fan here. I have the cubes and use them often. First ninjon video
That third one looks incredible, due to the shift in colours across most elements.
Teenage Emo Ninja Rat! (Sung to ninja turtles). 😂
The new ones still suck. There how does that feel.
these vids are great when muted
