How to Paint the Dead of Dunharrow
In this short video I'll be painting up one of the Dead of Dunharrow miniatures for the Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game. These spooky, ethereal fellows have loads of almost zombie-like details and are also a potent force on the battlefield. It's also the first force I've finished in over a year, so at the end of the video there's a short vid of a 360 rotation of the full unit. There's two ways to paint them, there's the 'follow the full video way' where I add a little bit of colour to them before the ghostly colours go on giving the merest hint of colour to them that they have in the films, while the other way is just following the last few sections of the video (from the Nighthaunt Gloom and Briar Queen Chill) which will give them a pure ethereal and ghostly look. Hopefully either or both will be useful to you.

How to paint Ruins of Osgiliath (Gondor Ruins)
zhlédnutí 7KPřed rokem
In this short video I'll be using a quick and easy method of painting up part of the ruins of Osgiliath (Gondor Ruins) from the Battle of Osgiliath box. It's absolutely stunning terrain, and this simple method will get it looking great on the tabletop. Please consider supporting Brush and Boltgun, as it allows me to keep making content.

How to paint a Mordor Troll
zhlédnutí 3,5KPřed rokem
In this video I'll be painting up the Mordor Troll from the Battle for Osgiliath Box. 'Why don't you arm him with a hammer and shield?' I hear you cry, well, I have one of those already magnetised, and fancied having this guy ready to impale someone on his spear.

How to Paint Gimli
zhlédnutí 515Před rokem
In this short video I'll be painting up the plastic Gimli from the Fellowship of the Ring kit. It's quite an odd miniature, not one of my favourites from the kit for sure, as he looks a little slimmer than he seems in the films, but it's a worthy addition to the Fellowship.

😊
Just showed this to one of my customers. Many thanks!
Great video. Simple method and awesome results. Been painting unit of 20 plague monks and I painted their foetid blades extra crusty🤌🏻 Gonna try out something like this for my stormvermin to give them slightly cleaner armor👍🏻
The leadbelcher was too heavy and honestly not the best choice
Quite the takeaway you took from that vid! 🤣 Thanks for watching MrFirecasters! 👍
Looks great!
Nice job man, that looks great! 14:19
aw mannnn i forgot about your channel, so glad YT put you back in my recommended videos, you're awesome dude, hope you're doing well
I managed to pick a set of this up for £15 & I'm just painting them, but as dark angels. I've still picked up some tips on how I'm gonna do certain parts, so thanks for the vid mate. 👍👍
Thank you for this video. massive help
you should have throw another coat of that deepkin flesh to make a more solid coat on the face..its was a bit transparent from that black underneath...other than that, that is a very good , awesome paintjob
You can be named Ultramarine without helmet, but you will never have tactical rock as big as his.
You made such an art of The Emperor, meanwhile that heart at back looks like painted by a Grot. 9.9/10
Genius. Just put a cape over a shoulder pad that propably will take more of your sanity than rest of figurine.
Awesome! It's great
I just did mine as an old world artifact style. (Im brand new and its my first model) and i think i may have forgotten highlights
Wow! That looks very nice. I'm sure, in person, it looks even better! The camera zoom plus big monitors really shows a lot more than what your eyes will see and blend together in person. TL;DR; Questions: 1) Ever prime/paint miniatures on the sprue? Or always fully assembled? 2) Ever used Speed Paints? 3) What's good to protect the final paint, similar to cars having clear coat layers over the colored undercoat? I just picked up Cursed City. I know I'm late to the WHQ party, in general. It's my first WHQ game or Warhammer miniatures in general. It only took a few hours to assemble all the miniatures, but halfway through, I wondered if I should've primed or painted any of it before gluing them together. So, that's one of my questions, do you ever prime or paint any Warhammer miniatures on the sprues? Or do you prefer to paint them after assembly, since the primer/paint can mess with the glues? And my other question is if you've ever used Army Painter Speed Paints? I'm a novice at painting miniatures and I think my #1 issue is feeling like I'll never have enough time to paint them with multiple layers, like you did in this video. Thus, I have been painting other board game miniatures with Speed Paints, but each miniature, just putting on 5-8 different colors takes me an hour or more. Also, I'm getting older, so must use a magnifier on a headband with light and my neck is so sore after 3 or 4 minis. Any tips besides taking more breaks? :)
You know, I totally get you about the sore neck and eyesight! I’ve found sitting back in my chair properly and propping my arms up so the miniature is in front of me rather than being hunched over has helped a lot. I still hunch over eventually, but I try and stay upright when possible/when I remember 🤣🙌 I try and undercoat on the sprues with spray. Works a treat - I did used to paint some minis on the sprue, but realised in doing that I couldn’t game with them for aaaaaaages. Now I paint them pre built, and ignore the bits I can’t reach with the brush. 9/10 you can’t see those bits unless you look hard at them :) I’ve used GW contrasts and they’re superb - head good things about the speed paints but never tried them myself. For getting an army ready quickly you can’t go wrong. Did a poxwalker vid with contrasts and it came out fab. :)
Beautiful work!
Great work ! I love the details on the white part of the armor👏
The number on the shoulder isn't the squad number its the company number which goes there. So you made a 6th company Salamander but listed it in 1st company and both shoulders in 5th and 6th are red. Salamanders don't number what squad they're in but some people use the knee pad for that.
Every day's a learning day. They're a chapter I've not painted before so easy to get the shoulders wrong. The squad number can be done on the flame though, that's from the Heraldry and Markings page in the codex under Battlefield Roles and Squads (check the 40k Wiki). Black shoulderpad should defo be red though! :) Thanks for watching. :)
You are so relaxing, one of the best painting channels on YT. Thanks for the video 🙏
Cheers guidedbylight, very much appreciated. :-)
They actually are all crying under their helmets
They wouldn't fight any other way!
What are they lamenting?
The question is 'What aren't they lamenting?' :)
about to start a Lamenters army but that chapter badge is a little intimidating
Don't get put off by it Dave, paint the shoulder white and use a sharp pencil to faintly mark out the shapes, then just fill in the blanks. You'll get better and better with every one. :)
@@BrushandBoltgun i bought a drafters pencil a couple days ago to have lead fine enough to draw the shoulder markings. We're taking the plunge today! Thx for the support :)
Très cool👍
Cheers renaudroyer5390, very much appreciated :-)
Lamenters Primaris also ‘cursed’ with bad luck?
Yeah probably, I mean not needing to drink blood or the possibility of the black rage is a pretty crazy buff
Very cool
In the words of Homer: "WHY CAN'T MINE LOOK LIKE THAT !?!"
Wow brother very nice
Cheers Jono, very much appreciated! <3 :)
Those are awesome
Cheers Henry, very much appreciated! :-)
Lovely tutorial. Simple, straight to the point and clear instructions. Cheers!!
Cheers Dave, very much appreciated! :)
I know this video is old, but It'd be good to start saying what you used for the base coat and whether your sprayed it or painted it.
Fair one, it's Runelord Brass Spray. :) I've defo mentioned it on some... will add it to the description! haha :-) Cheers for watching Shane! :)
Looks awesome, you've inspired me to paint mine. I'm going to try and do in the style of Oltyx
Hope you have a lot of fun with them, they're an enjoyable paint. :) Thanks for watching! :)
Older video but what was the base color? Model air chrome?
And was it primed with model air chrome?
The initial colour (prime/base) of the miniature is Citadel Runelord Brass spray. The chrome was used for the silvery bits. :) Thanks for watching. :)
Just a quick quest about brightening up after the shading process. When you say cover about 50% of each previous colour are you working towards the centre of the Armor or on the upper half of the body? Thank you for your time.
I go with the upper surface of the armour, so it it's the left shoulder/pauldron, it'd all be mephiston red, shade with druchii violet, then I'd do the upper half of the shoulder pad with mephiston red, then the upper half of that with Wild Rider Red, and then a little highlight of Wildrider red :-) Thanks for watching Engarde! :)
Very, very nice, thank you so much for doing that great paint job!!
Hey man! I haven't seen any new video tutorials from you in a while. I hope you're doing well. Your series on the Black Legion Chaos Marines really helped me out a lot and I really appreciated that. These Terminators look great. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦!
Cheers Jredhayjay, very much appreciated! :) Not had the time for it for a while sadly, working, writing and family are absorbing a lot of time. Hoping to get some more vids out at some point though. :) Love the Black Legion, still have some to paint up - they're next on the list when the Knights of the Chalice are sorted. :)
great job!
These model are the best thing to happen to the lamenters 😂
Very nice pal. They would look cool on my table 😎🤟
They look soooo cool!
Good paint job. What colors did you use for the base coats? Seems to be warmer on the skin than on the armor
Love my golden men who protect the emperor
Mordor trolls can't take spears homie, still - lovely work
If I'm honest, I just loved the hat and the pose with the spear! haha! :) the other one's magnetised (and yet unpainted) so I can swap them out as necessary. :-) Thanks for watching! :)
My god, looks insane! Subscribed
Cheers James, very much appreciated! :)
The best step by step for Red Corsairs on CZcams
Cheers Nocturn, very much appreciated! :)
Might have missed it in the video but what color primer has been used? Thanks
Sorry Dave, I've probably missed it from the description (will get it added!)! :) It's primed with Runelord Brass spray. :) Thanks for watching! :)
awsome this has helprd me alot 👍👍
Beautiful brother 😎🤟
Cheers Jono! :)
