A voyage into miniature painting and all things related!
Welcome to The Hobby Grotto, and thanks for stopping by! In my 30 years of painting and hobbying I've picked up many useful techniques, but I'm still always learning! The goal of this channel is to spread some of that knowledge while continuing my own painting journey. All too often you can get bogged down in the details and processes of painting, so I'd like to try and present achievable results and accessible paint schemes as much as possible that anyone can use and build upon as their own skill increases.
I don't do this full-time (as much as I'd like to!) so sometimes life gets in the way of my upload schedule. I try to put out a new video every fortnight but I can't make any promises! Any support through the following links is greatly appreciated 😊

That is amazing if you don't mind me asking how long did it take to do that?
Thankyou! It's honestly super fast to paint with drybrushes and washes like this, I have a full video linked in the description which goes into more detail on the process, please feel free to check it out 😊
@@TheHobbyGrotto I will do 👍
Speed paint over metallic was a game changer, i instantly did a mini with every color of metal possible
Awesome! Thank you :-)
You're welcome, thanks for watching! 😁
Yup, i did this and do this a lot. Wether its just making it a nice smooth metal with gradients or doing what you did here with speedpaints. Honestly good dry brushing can do wonders with just a few touch ups after.
Drybrushing is one of the handiest techniques out there! 😁
@@TheHobbyGrotto I personally never understood the hate for it. If you do it well it can get you highlights much quicker and you can quickly go over them with a brush again anyway
Very true, I think some people view it as a beginner technique that you graduate away from, but it's an important tool for any miniature painter imo!
@@TheHobbyGrotto pretty much, I think the elitist views need to stop. It's just another way of getting things done and you should always keep it in mind. Ain't no way I'm doing a large dragon and highlighting it without dry brushing.
Metal within
Sound like theoutercircle
Haha we are both Aussies 😆
Looks cool.
Ooo I'm definitely gonna do this for my death guard, shiny poop metal color
Honestly this look really fits Alpha Legion, seeing as they're the one's to have more of a mix of new and old gear thanks to their espionage shenanigans. Just my guess on bits: CSM: Body, legs, backpack Assault Intercessor: head, arms, weapons and shoulders
Thankyou! You nailed all those bits! 😊
This is a great way for really easy gold using an orangish yellow!
Definitely! This works with so many different colours! 😄
Fantastic video. Thank Morr this channel exists
Cheers you legend! 🤘
what medium do you use instead of water?
I use Lahmian Medium from GW, but most miniature paint brands will have an equivalent that will work perfectly fine! 😄
That's pretty cool!
what is the perfect size in mm height for no need green pasta and just glue the magnet under the base ?
There's no perfect size because of the variety of different base depths on miniatures. If you get good quality, strong magnets, then anything with a height of 1.5mm - 2mm will serve you well though (even without putty).
I'll have the halfling nuggets with mad-cap mushroom sauce and Bretonnian fries 😂
Hahaha love it! 😆
Thats fucking sick
Hahaha wtf 🤣😂🤣
Mmm, double Bretonian burgers...
Underrated asf
That's ace!
Great video
Thankyou! 😊
I used your video as a guide for basing my first time. I realize with my kit bashed ogor heroes I need to givs them the proper sized based. Though I messed up with the first model. Destroyed their foot so I had to cut it off and give him a club stump haha. Ah well. It's lore accurate anyways. I'll probably keep the platforms on next time and work around it
Thanks for watching, and glad to hear you managed to turn the foot into something that worked! I've definitely mangled a few feet during all my rebasing escapades, so I can relate! 😅
@TheHobbyGrotto luckily I've managed a cleaner attenpt with my next model I did. I kit bashed some ogor heros like a tyrant and butchers, so I'm just putting them on the proper sized bases like if you bought the official model. This also includes a slaughter master... but idk if I need to have that long oval base or will a 50mm will work...
Nice one, kit bashing is an important part of the hobby imo, and don't forget if you do get a bit of damage on the feet you can always hide it with basing/tufts! 😊
With hot glue, do you still use CA glue with it too?
I don't personally use hot glue myself, but if you do you can skip the super glue, the hot glue itself should have enough hold 😊
This painting style is the OG painting style before Contrast and "slap chop" :D prime/Base coat, Medium tone, highlight. And because you don't want to sit there forever: dry brush. Ironic that a skeleton which is only one color actually is the best show case to explain the method :D
Thankyou! I'm a big fan of that classic style! There's just something about skeletons which make them excellent minis, they have fantastic contrast at this small scale 😁
Do you spray the miniture black before painting?
Yes, I use Citadel Chaos Black spray for all my undercoating 😊
WHERE WAS THIS VIDEO A WEEK AGO. NOW I WANT TO RESTART MY STD ARMY
Hahaha noooooo! 😆
I know it's a while since you posted this but I just wanted to say thanks. I've tried multiple schemes for chaos marines but haven't been happy with any of them. I just did my first using this scheme and I think it looks ace. One suggestion/request - for future videos, would it be possible to put a list of the paints in the description as well as during the video? Thanks again 😊
Glad to hear you found the colour scheme helpful, and thanks for watching! I've recently started adding the paints in the video descriptions, I still need to go back and update my older videos but I've just updated the description for this video accordingly 😊
Спасибо
My top 10 most used paints are all contrast paints now😂
I love contrast paints, so handy!
Добрый вечер. Покажите как вы красите лошадей.
Спасибо за просмотр! На самом деле я сейчас рисую лошадей для своих бретоннцев, так что следите за видео! А пока посмотрите, пожалуйста, моего друга Раша Уош, у него есть отличное видео о лошадях 😊
Спасибо)
Добрый день скиньте пожалуйста ссылку вашего друга Раша Уош. Спасибо.

Tysm! I've created a good rust effect for weapons and small pieces, but I am going to paint a chaos rhino tank with this method. It's gonna be rad 🤘👊💥
Glad to hear you found the video helpful, good luck with the tank! 😊
Hi, do you know the equivalent valejo metal color paints for the last example?
Thanks for watching! Any Vallejo dark brown and dark silver would work fine for this colour scheme, you might try Dark Umber and then something like Exhaust Manifold or Acero Steel, but most silvers should work well when mixed with brown 😊
I do have some Rhinox Hide, but I would like to give some of those other paints a try sometime
Please do, I find them all so useful! 😊
@@TheHobbyGrotto Sure thing
Perfect video for my undead skeleton minion army. A Necromancer in D&D with undead with shiny armor and weapons would be weird haha. Thnx a lot
Thanks for watching, nothing better than a skeleton minion army! 😁
Useful recommendation. 🖌
Cheers! 😊
I like how not only you mentioned each paint, but you also told us how to highlight and shade them! Quality painting stuff!
Thankyou for stopping by Miguel! 😊
