I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL THE SUPPORT AND COMMENTS AND IF YOU WANT TO JOIN ME ON MY JOURNEY IN GROWING THE CHANNEL, MAKE SURE TO SUBSCRIBE - Jak na to + styl
I never comment, but i wanted to say that I love the simplicity in your approach, it's genuine tabletop for everyone yet it's an amazing render ! keep it up man
thank you, I'm very grateful for you taking the time to comment, it means a lot. I love making these tutorials and hearing how much they help people.
I absolutely love the bright style of painting. People often think that the more dirt and dust is covering your mini the better it looks, it sometimes comes to the point you cant see the basic colors. While I think the grim and dirty approach is fine, its really just better to play when your minis stand out and dont blend with environment
I've always loved this style, I'm lucky enough to be able to go and see the easy metal miniatures at warhammer world and everything I do is just kind of trying to get replicate it but in an easier and quicker way
The quality of your videos is beyond insane. Love it! Thank you so much.
thank you and I always appreciate the wonderful comments
One of the best painting tutorials I've had the pleasure of seeing. Perfectly done, so helpful!
Oh shucks, thank you. I try my best 😊 it’s important for me to produce tutorials that people are able to use and are achievable
I'm collecting white scars and your tutorial is the best one for achievable results. Wanted you to know your tutorial is why a begginer like myself has well painted white scars. I just wish I had the skill for highlighting like you do. I cheat and use tamiya panel liner haha. Hope your channel gets the growth it deserves. Keep it up. Learning a lot from you!
I've been totally waiting for this!
Thank you❤
your very welcome, thank you
Great finish. Really make me wanna start a White Scar Army. What about Iron Hands and Raven Guard?
glad yo like the tutorial :) I also want to do a white scar army. I'll be doing Ironhands and Raven Guard next don't worry. I want to do all the legions
Yet another great tutorial, Michael.... Thank you for sharing this 🤍🤍🤍
I'm honoured as always warmaster
Just starting out painting. These are incredible helpful for paint selection and technique.
I never thought my tutorials would apeal to beginners, I'm glad it does though :D
Great videos love the easy ways and nice explanations as other creators seem to skip steps, use things I don’t have, or assume I already know what I’m doing. Thank you
I like to make sure that each video has everything you’ll need to know to paint that certain thing. I never assume people have seen any of my other tutorials and I think that works best. It makes them useful for all levels of painters then. 😁 thanks for the comment
Really enjoy your tutorial format. Just nicely laid out, so thanks. Would love to see your approach to painting Grey Knights.
Thank you very much 😊 grey knights are on the list and will probably be done in the next few months i recon
Fantastic video as always! I’m actually tempted to start a WS army now that I feel confident I could actually do it.
You should. White scars as an army look amazing. I’m glad you found the confidence 😃 just think of how good bikes would look
Hey Michael. I just wanted to say thank you for your tutorials.
Your very welcome ☺️ I appreciate that. Thank you for the comment
Awesome tutorial. Im pretty new to this and I chose Storm Of Chogoris, because I wanted to be done with the hellish experience that is white armor and get even better at painting. If you have airbrush, Vallejo White Surface Primer makes such a white and flawless texture upon contact. I dont think I need to paint it with White Scar/Corax White anymore as base lol.
Also while experimenting, I captured a sweet metallic orangish red by applying Screaming Bell on Retributor Armor.
Starting my Sucessor Chapter soon, and this video was a godsend!
😁 I’m glad you enjoy the content
Thank you Michael! Thanks a lot for the video! Please keep doing this!
your very welcome. I love making these tutorialsand won't be stopping anytime soon.
This looks great mate! I’m looking to start collection specifically White Scars, so this will help monumentally
Awsome 😁 I was really proud of this one
awesome tutorial!
Thank you 🙏🏻 I appreciate yah
Dude, you truely make amazing content. Thank you for this video! I just started collecting White Scars.. I am a former Ultramarines and Deathwatch player and collecter and wanted to try something new. This truely inspired me, not gonna lie! :D
Amazing. Gonna be honest. After painting this white scar and seeing how good it looks. I’m very tempted. Using this recipe on the outriders would look amazing. Probably my favourite marine I’ve done so far. The iron hand that’s coming out tomorrow is my second 😉
Very nice!
thank you :D
Really impressive model, well done !
thank you, I'm glad you liked how it turned out, I was really happy with it
me, a lego fan who is becoming a warhammer fan, I noticed the lego shirt most in particular
yeah I love lego. I had to kind of knock that back though for Warhammer but hopefully I'll be in a position to enjoy both one day :D
Brilliant work lad 🤟
Thank you. Always appreciate the comments 😊
I've rewatched this video so many times and only just noticed the cat on top of your chair at the end lmao 9:50
haha he's my supervisor
Thank you! For the Khan!
your welcome. thank you for commenting :)
Absolutely genious thank you bro
I'm glad you like the video :D
Looks great 👍
thank you :)
Thats cool! I love your works. I believe that with such talent you will be a popular youtuber
Thank you so much. I’m just happy people really like my tutorials 😊
at 9:50 its like the cat is doubting you lol your guide helped a lot the trick with the company markings is just what i needed
He's my supervisor ha I'm glad this guide helped :D
I’m just getting into the hobby and I’m planning to base my colours off my pet cat who is all white 😢 I’ve heard while researching that white is one of the harder colours to use so I was hesitant but thanks to your video it doesn’t seem so daunting now, appreciate the guides and will be learning intently ❤️👍🏾
Brilliant 😃 I have a tuxedo cat and a tabby. Both would be cool to base a colour scheme off. Make sure to come up with a cool chapter name and chapter badge. Have fun with the lore as well 💪🏻 make it your own
Your impeccable skill got my attention, but that Majestic Cat got my subscription.
He’s the one who makes this all possible. He’s the supervisor, keeping a constant watch on me
The khan would be impressed! Good work bro
Thank you, I hope he is
Love white scar i did a test run with one few years ago I put the finished result on my channel love the red chest looks so good 👍👌
thank you. feel free to e-mail me the link. wouldn't mind seeing that
This is really timely as just about to start a small squad of White Scars 😀
That convenient 😁 hope it helps
Another great video, awesome quality , best tutorials on CZcams! Slaves to darkness next ?
Thank you 🙏🏻 I was looking at all the slaves to darkness miniatures today and they look amazing. I recon I may have something in the next few months 😋
Enhorabuena ha quedado muy bien
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks man
no problem :)
Good stuff
Thank you
I love the tutorials! you should also do horus heresy legion colors too that would me cool
That would be opening a whole can of worms haha, maybe one day. Never say never
Am gonna paint some intercessors white scares oh and i manged to make some imperial fist intercessors 😃 thanks to your videos.
awsome. have fun painting the white scars :D
Great tutorial thinking of making my assault intercessors into white scar idk yet.
Do it 💪🏻
White is intimidating, red freehands on white doubly so. This tutorial does a lot to make it more approachable. I love the idea of mixing your own wash here. Agrax Earthshade or Nuln Oil have always felt too strong for me when it comes to white.
your right, white is a tricky colour because its what you do to contrast against it. so you need to be more subtle with your shades.
Imma come back to this when I have some White Scars to paint. I was looking to paint them a homebrew colour but maybe I'll use white as a base and accent them differently
Baneblade Brown, Fenrisian Grey and Apothecary White are my 3 go to colours to use as recess shades and accent colours with white. :D
Fantastic job mate! I’ve always wanted to do a white scars army but the thought of painting tons of bikes in white just doesn’t seem enjoyable at all haha
loads of bikes painting like this would look amazing. I recon I'll be doing some myself :D
Hello Michael!
Love the videos, instructions are clear and there is no airbrush required! I'm using your dark angels guide for my own dark angels, hopefully they turn out as good as yours
Do you take requests? I would love to see how you do grey knights if you get a chance! Thanks for the quality content
I’m sure they’ll turn out looking great. As long as you take your time with them. It usually takes about 8-10 hours for me to paint 1 marine 😋 but it’s worth the effort, especially for a squad. I’ll probably do grey knights in the next 4 months as everyone always asks for them. I’m just deciding what I want to paint 😁 so look forward to it
Love it as usual mate! How long would you say a mini like this would take you start to finish without filming?
🤔 if I’m in a good flow. A single miniature would probably take about 8 hours. Half of that time is highlighting. A week is about the time it takes to paint a squad
9:50 Your cat just looks at you like "wtf bro, who you talking to?"
He’s my supervisor haha
These are nice! Great job!
Will you also be doing the traitor legions?
I recon I will 😁
awesome lego shirt dude :)
thank you, I've had it a while now and its like my comfort t shirt ha
Crazy you don't have more subscribers man.
I'm surprised I have as many as I do ha and the channel is growing so fast recently I haven't been able to take it in. but it means a lot that you think that. thank you. we're getting there
Thanks so much, this video made me sub and will use your guides from now on
I’m very new to painting and I love the White Scars lore but everyone says how hard they are to paint and I’ve dreaded it
Just a question if you ever see this, on the base layer, how many times should I paint a thin layer on? Or what should I look for to know it’s enough?
Thanks again
Welcome to the channel. I'm glad you want to join me on this journey :) white scars are up there with imperial fists in being pretty intimidating to paint. I generaly do about 3 layers for my base coats. if it looks streaky and doesn't look right then you need to do more layers. people tend to stop early but as long as your layers are pretty thin its okay.
one method cult of paint did for the red details was using contrast paint. either method works for me, but i'd feel more pressured with the contrast going out of control
I do love contrast paints and hope to do something with them in the future. I know what you mean though, because they are so rich in colour.
@@TableTopReadyCZcams this may be more trouble than it's worth, but perhaps leaving the shin armor off "could" help with painting a specific company marking. Though I suppose I'm just too focused on perfectionism than done
Make a lamenters tutorial!
I will be. don't worry. after Ironhands and Ravenguard
Can you do iron hands? I love the industrial black and metal details to these miniatures (eg. the hands)
Ironhands will be next, probably February
I second a Raven Guard or Iron Hands video.
I'll be doing Ironhands next and then Raven guard
Hey Michael, do you find that you need to leave a space where the pieces connect to then glue them once you've painted the individual parts?. Or does the plastic glue still work through the paint?
Very good question. I tend to use superglue to glue all the parts at the end so I don’t have to worry about this. If you used poly cement it could ruin the paint. If you did want to use poly, I would scrape away the areas of contact other wise plastic won’t weld together because of the paint.
So good,
Do you sell miniatures? Or paint to order ?
Unfortunately I don’t really have the time to do commissions and I don’t have anything for sale at the moment. I’ll always let people know if I do though 😁
What do you use to fix the part of the. miniature to the sticks? 1:23
Either super glue or blu tac.
I have a tutorial on the channel showing you how to get miniatures ready for painting 🖖🏻
😊
🙏🏻
Novamarines next?
I'm thinking of doing a generic space marine painting tutorial and I really want to cover painting armour like nova marines or storm eagles. when that will be? I don't know but it's coming
@TableTopReady Awesome! Looking forward to it :)
No one commenting on that majestic af cat?
ha I'm surprised as well.
Why do you choose to not prime with corax white instead of brushing it on? Different finish?
There is no corax white undercoat? Otherwise I would ha
@@TableTopReadyCZcams im thinking of white scar..doh
I thought so ha. If I used greyseer, it’s probably because it’s what I had at the time. But white scar is also great to use. I would still do a corax white base coat though as it’s darker shade than white so it can be highlighted etc
Pls paint carcharodons!!
after I've finished the chapters, I'll be doing crimson fists, lamenters, mantis warriors and carcarodons :) that will be over the next 4 months I recon amongst other videos I want to do
Please add how to paint White Scars eagles. They always carry eagles with them.....
oooo honestly that's a great idea. I'm probably going to start painting a lot of the characters and I know the white scar guy has an eagle :D that would fun actually
Would it make a difference if i use army painter white instead of white scar.
I’ve not used army painter but I can’t imagine it would be a problem. 🖖🏻
@@TableTopReadyCZcams I suppose it dos not make a difference as long as there white lol white scar
@@TableTopReadyCZcams question can you paint space marines different colours instead of doing them all the same colours ?
in the same army? in the recent lore, when the intercessors were introduced to the galaxy, they had yet to join their alloted chapters. I'm pretty sure they had units mixed chapters or atleast whole units from different chapters. some were even the factory setting grey. you also have the death watch.
but honeslty you do what you want to do anyway, just come up with a cool story and reason behind it
Suddenly realised you had a cat scarf 🤣
haha he's my supervisor
On further research, it's only the sergeants that wear a company marking on the right leg. It's strange to me
🤔 really? I didn’t know that. I thought they were company markings 🤷🏼♂️ I always use the rule of cool though.
@@TableTopReadyCZcams they are company markings. In the white scars, they're on squad sergeants though. Even on the 40k wiki says sergeants only show them
I should remember to do my research 🤦🏼♂️
@@TableTopReadyCZcams you're totally fine! If anything, it just means you can buy less minis to field for multiple companies (if you wanted) unlike ultramarines
you did not just put karak stone right into the lahmian medium
🤭 haha
the white background makes this a bit hard to see properly
