When can we see you attempt this kind of approach on a bust like this? That would be great as well! Keep up the awesome job and I loved this artistic approach just as much as that amazibg mustache, loved it!
Yo Squiddy, is there a way to figure out how much postage is? living in NZ so a far distance to go

I've been subscribed to their patreon for months now and their painting style is so refreshing. Going through the comment section and watching a lot of people essentially bash them or belittle them for no real reason is exactly why a lot of people don't respect mini painting as an art form. Because when actual artists try to express themselves in new or interesting ways; people are jerks about it.
I found it to be very unique his on his own level. But I don't see anyone bashing anyone in the comments but you.
The comments he talked about have been disliked enough not be this high up. If you scroll down to the bottom you'll find them.
@@mormegilthurin5421 what the person above said. The comments have been downvoted into irrelevance.
That is so disappointing. Unquestionably, Marko and Aleksandra are extraordinarily talented and bring a very joyful and expressive if - certainly - different style to the hobby. Okay, view of it is extremely subjective, and maybe their style is not for some particular individuals, but that certainly does not justify criticism of a demeaning sort. Taking offense at what one sees in this video is just plain foolish; if it's not for you, okay, just decide not to take offense and move on. Sadly, that's too much for some, I guess ...
@@mdmnmdllr its strange as I was watching this and thinking "nope, don't like it, don't like it, really don't like it" but then at the end it's like WOW, its really damn good but no matter what I don't understand when people hate on another person, if you don't like it just don't watch, why try to put someones talent down
not only is he a good painter he also has that fantastic moustache
Fantastic. A Musketteer :)
Watching this paint unfold was like watching a beautiful sunrise on a dewy morning with the sent of the woods on the air. I was immersed in the shear effortless way the paint went on.
My first comment in almost fifteen years of youtubing. I have a habit of reading comments before watching the video and this painting-of-a-comment made me write my own for the very first time. Cheers!
Wtf are you on about mate? Lmao
as a amateur traditional artist who has recently gotten into mini painting, this insight is absolutely gold

It's exactly the process my tattoo artist use when she's tattooing my skin, i found it ugly but at the end it's a photorealistic paint. More or less here, he starts adding colors that, makes no sense to a non trained person, and then it all starts to make sense. Not divine powers, just practice and talent! Amazing video
This painting technique is obviously not for everyone. I LOVE looking at the art from Craftworld, but I don't think I would try and copy Marko, which is fine, we all have our own styles. But even though Marko's style is not my style, there really is a wealth of knowledge contained in this video that I think will help me grow as a painter. I think there are nuggets of wisdom here that can be applied to any painting style, and I appreciate the time everyone took to make it. I feel like there are tons of paint-by-number miniature painting videos, and "abc's of technique" videos, but the videos that I have been enjoying the most are the ones that approach miniature painting not as a hobby but as an art form.
I'm amazed by some of the people complaining about free content that maybe doesn't specifically apply to their personal taste, or painting niche, or that maybe wasn't mixed by a professional sound mixer. This was a great video. The content is more important than the production value. Giving feedback on issues that could be improved is one thing, but it feels like there are some people that just like to complain. I feel sad for those people that focus on the negative instead of being appreciative of the effort, but I guess that's just the internet and people taking for granted the amount of time it takes to make videos.
I think ther message is so important for mini painters. We generally need to get out of the paint by numbers mindset and become a bit freer and experimental in our painting.
I found this video very liberating and informative. A very different way of doing things.
âNothing is set in stone, everything can be adjusted and changed. The important part int he enjoyment in the processâ. Truer words have never been spoken. Amazing video, I hope I can take a few of these skills away with me
I appreciate this video so so much, I have no words to express my gratitude. I've been wondering for so long how these two painting gods pull of their colorful models and I would have never guessed they started with a visible LSD trip as 'base coat'. I'm itching to paint something colourful now!
This is one of the best painting videos Iâve ever seen. I love the way he used color not just to describe the subject, but as an opportunity to imagine the environment around her as well. Genius.
Really needed this honestly. As I feel like I'm getting better I'm beginning to lose interest because all my learnings so far have been very "Step 1, Step 2" regimented feel and it's starting to feel repetitive. But this really showed me that I need to start letting go of "recipes" and just be creative and no stress about the tiniest break in smoothness and just have fun. Thanks for this.
My absolute biggest tip for anyone painting is exactly this. Learn techniques, yes. Deliberately practice, yes, but just paint. Just paint what you want, how you want and don't get hung up on simple stuff. You'll sort through all those hang ups as you paint more and eventually it won't even be a concern. Just have fun. That's the most underrated, and single most important "tip" that never gets talked about.
This is pure gold. I've been following Craftworld studio for a while, because I find truly inspiring how they push the medium forward with their very personal style, but never knew where to even begin in order to learn from them. This video is fantasting because it's not just a "follow these steps to paint like us" tutorial, but an approach that I can integrate into my workflow to find my own style. Thank you Aleksandra and Marko for explaining it in such detail and thank you Emil for giving them space in your channel!
That's amazing ! These guys are my favorite mini painters to follow on Instagram ! Seeing this tiny bit of their technic is such a huge thing ! Thank's for this video to all who backed the KS and to you Emil for making this happen ! And thank's Aleksandra and Marko for sharing your technics with us !
My favorite painter for sure! Can't figure out how he makes such vibrant colors work together but they do! No color seems to be at the right place, but the result is so right somehow...
He's using direct line contrasts almost everywhere. Main one on this is blue and orange and those colors naturally go well together. Then he branches out a bit in the colorwheel and adds a bit of purple, green and red which compliments against the main colors. You can pair almost whatever colors you want, the important part is placement. Drawing and painting is putting down lines and color that gives the illusion of something the brain can identify. Main focuses should always be on volume, saturation and light values, colors chosen are secondary.
@@emilviuff2514 yep I understand the theory but "the important part is placement" is everything, and far from easy đ
@@ThomasGallinari It is very hard yeah. but that's where practice comes in. You mentioned the colors in your comment so if you understood the theory, i would expect you not to. Guess i misunderstood. Anyway, if you wanna practice placement, do what i do and paint black/white schemes where you focus on values and volume, it'll help a ton.
@@emilviuff2514 I tried it once, very instructive.
I mentioned colors "at the right place" so it is indeed placement that blows my mind đ
Craftworld are great, I met them both early last year and did a painting class with them. Incredibly skilled, talented, creative and just great people overall!
So cool how the end result really brings out such detail. Not gunna lie I did fast forward it a lil at the start, but ima go back and watch the entire thing cuz WoW. These guys are gold! Tyvm Emil!
That's mans hipster moustache is clearly a link to the divine powers. Absolutely incredible
That's not just a moustache, he clearly harvests it to make new paint brushes.
Theyâre both absolutely incredible painters. Check out their Instagram!
Bob Rossin , tremendous skill
The Salvador Dali of miniature painters....
Joke is on you. He painted it on.
Wow. The style is so incredibly simple and yet overwhelming in itâs complexity. I intend to try something like this. Thank you for sharing it, Marco and Aleksondra. It challenges my bravery.
"i will let the colors lead me" awesome!
I just love how positive and encouraging these guys are; it's very humbling. I feel motivated to let the brush strokes and the colours lead me. Thanks, guys, you're awesome. :)
I've followed them on facebook for sometime now as something to aspire to. Glad I finally got a glimpse into the process,and help free my mind to other possibilities. Thanks Squidmar for hosting them,and thanks to Aleksandra and Marko for the free lesson.
45 minutes in and I gotta say, this is weird for me.
Not weird in a bad way at all. Just a MUCH different painting process and style than what I'm used to seeing. And it's brilliant every step of the way.
The best way for me to process it all, is to change the way I perceive him using colors. He uses colors as both a tool to set his values and temperature gradients. Rather than the normal way of portraying a specific part of the model by painting it a certain color we are familiar with (i.e. brown for leather or red/pink for skin)
I enjoyed this. Looking forward to seeing other busts being painted and seeing all the different painting styles.
Absolutely unbelievable painting. So refreshing to not just have a step by step guide, but how concepts work together! Thanks squidmar for organising!
Youâre blowing out premium content by the day it seems.
Super cool tutorials and advice in this one, as well as the last masterclass. Keep up the phenomenal contribution to the community.
The video was so awesome and as a newbie seeing this was so enlightening after watching so many others that follow the same technique, I loved the difference and how he created such a vibe and beautiful figure, thanks for sharing.
holy cow, I've never seen miniature painting like this before. Absolutely incredible but more to the point, it's less about *just* getting it to look as realistic as possible but still really has that artistic expression part that so much of miniature painting doesn't bring up or attempt to include at all. This was so awesome to see, thanks!
This type of painting always throws me for a loop. Traditional miniature painting has always taught me to "stay inside the lines" for lack of a better phrase. The outcome from not doing so is really awesome.
This was so helpful! It makes me feel less like I need to do it perfect and in a bunch of steps, but to really just paint and just go with the flow
At 36.00 minutes, begins to turn MAGIC!!! Awesome tutorial! Love the artists Squidmar brings us, so amazing!! This hour long session went by FAST! đđâ€đđđđ
Just caught this video, and I am really excited about Aleksandra and Marko's style of painting! Thank you for introducing them to us!
I admire their paint style! One of the most distinct styles. Great video!
I love the bust, I love the paintjob, but most importantly I love the moustache
What an incredible video. I think it might be the first miniature painting Patreon Iâm going to subscribe to. The technique and mindset really speaks to me and man, I am in love with those colours! Iâd be mighty pleased with myself just getting that so-called undercoat on there! Looks amazing!
Such amazing and brave way to paint! Mindblowing!
That gorgeous. What an amazing use of colors.
Watching this video right now and it is blowing my mind! This is exactly how I would love to paint! Thanks Emil and craftworld. đ
Wonderful content, and great tutorial. I love how many ways there are to achieve great results in painting, and it's so good to be exposed to things like this to try out and to learn from. âșïžđđđ
Incredible detail. Really quite a process they go through.
Wow. I don't even need to start to know this is gonna be splendid. Aleksandra, Marco, you are both in my top 3 favourite artists!
Who is number 1?
@@SHOEB289 Roman Lappart. But Craftworld is very close
wow this is amazing. Been following them for quite a while on the gram. Absolutely love their work.
This looks soooooo fun. The way he just plays with the colors and goes crazy.
Totally in the flow - this is not so much a tutorial, but an example of a brilliant artist at work. Inspiration!
I've watched a couple of techniques for painting busts and got to say this one is more fun to watch. I haven't had a chance to try this way but when I do it should prove to be an interesting one, thx for sharing it :)
Just got my kickstarter rewards and this is really exciting working fast and painterly! Perfect way to get excited about these awesome busts instead of being intimidated from the INSANE detail of the sculpts đ
Thank you so much for your content and videos. It really encourages me to try and actually get back to the painting station for me.
This video, the previous one. Man, you trully gave us a lot. Thank you.
Mind blowing. Reminds me of how I used to watercolor paint. Didn't really think of painting that way on my drukhari because they are so small but want to paint a bust for fun now!
That's amazing, great video! I'm new to the hobby, but their tutorial is really inspiring!
I love this style. It reminds me of what Marta Nael does, but on miniatures and it is just so very beautiful. You can tell they know colors like masters because if you turn your screen to black and white, the values in this video are perfect.
Thank you for sharing this tutorial. That was amazing đđđ
this is a very generous sharing! thank you!
This is very much above my head. Good watch.
Best. Mustache. Ever. And fabulous tutorial as well!! The Salvador Dali of Miniature Painters!!đ€Łâ€đđ
I love this! Thanks Squidmar!
Absolutely amazing.
I am thoroughly inspired! Good job!
True artists; so awesome to watch everything come together. So much more talent than I have to see the possibility of color combinations. Inspiring.
Thank you SOOOO much for this video!
What a cool couple, lovely video thank you so much and thanks to these guys âïžđđ„
wooow 1hrs, time for some popcorn, EMil has something special for us... thanks a lot, Emil for your great content!
Amazing work from Craftworld.
It looks strange until it look so freakingly awesome!! Fantastic!
the result is absolutely beautiful
This was awesome when I get my bust from the set Iâm going to give it a go
Aleksandra: _explaining stuff for 5 minutes straight_
Marko:
> mmm
beautiful and colorful collab, you guys and girl are my heroes ;)
Those colors really pop!
Damn that really is God Tier colour. I'm having palpitations thinking about it, but now I really want to have a go at something a bit more impressionistic.
I did quite well at using a similar technique on canvas when I was at school, so hopefully I can bring that to bear on a mini, but that *was* 20 years ago. Even if those canvasses were the only thing I ever got an A on, I have to admit, I think this is going to take a *LOT* of practice.
Wow! This guy is good. Definitely gave me some new ideas to try.
please do something like this more often, like once a month or something like that, this is a beautiful video!
I knew I was out of my depth when he started shading and highlighting the eyeballs! (Amazing tutorial, though!)
This was very interesting to see :) as a painter (canvas, not much minis yet) I do see the value in underpainting, it makes such a huge difference in the end result.
I hope that something similar to this will show up here in the future :D đ
How many years of art school, the way this is done is so soothing to watch and that Moe is impressive.
Prime > Highlight > Ambiance colors > wetblended base colors > shadows > highlights > countours.
As an extremely obsessive-compulsive, object-oriented type, this sort of free-wheeling "let the paint go where it wants and lead you" technique (if that's the correct term) is extraordinarily hard to grasp as it's about the furthest from the process I've used myself over almost forty years of hobby. And yet I do love how this 'underpainting' process came around in particular for elements like the face, hair, and leather elements, as they were detailed and refined. This is definitely going to take some exploration to better grasp, and use on a pretty particular style of fig, but the result is unquestionably worth it and stands to lead in interesting directions.
Also - very cool moustache!
That was beautiful!
If you look at his underpainting in monochromatic, its like the video where squidmar painted color blind, absolutely wild
That is amazing.
man it's so nice you bringing this kind of content, thanks Sir :)
awesome!!
I got started and have only painted DND minis, as in the 28mm with very light details. I'd like to see some of these high end painters do some of these 3 dollar minis with crap detail. THAT'S a challenge. Anyone can do good detail on a 3 inch tall mini that costs 40 bucks with tons of details that are crisp and clear...
MuchĂsimas gracias... realmente he aprendido.
Wow, thx i learned a lot with this video
It'd be so cool to see someone bring an artistically painted army to the hobby shop to play
I totally dig this style
wow epic art
I love the new kind of videos
So this is a nice tutorial, but this is more an advanced step thing for a lot of people that don't understand the basics of underpainting colors and how colors interact with one another.
The first time I watched this it felt like there were a lot of steps missing, like why would he choose those colors.
For anyone that's trying to understand this, I'd recommend looking up Vince Venturella Color guides. There are a lot of ways that colored paints interact with each other that you need to learn first.
Then I'd practice balancing colors, take some editing software and grey scale something. Colorise it with some basic colors and figure out what works with what. The best way to view things is like a balancing act. Where your two contrasting colors meet will be the focus of the piece. Things like analogous colors can slowly feather out a color, and things like split complimentary can act as slight accents. Mess around with saturation, because it won't look good at first until you eb it back.
It's not entirely this videos fault for not explaining all this. However I feel like there's just no real guide to this sort of thing.
This is so refreshing.
Thank you , Squid .
Just watched for like⊠the 4th or 5th time and learn SO much every time.
Amazing!
Awesome, would love to see more videos on underpainting.
Great stuff friend đ đ
Ironically I was thinking of signing up to their patreon. The underpainting looks like a parrot threw up on it or a 5 year old got hold of it at a painting party. This is high level, instinctive stuff. Really appreciate you giving us this insight and the longer video. Props!
Exactly, it starts looking really ugly... But then, somehow it's all beautiful and slowly making sense.
You say that, but my impression was that the underpainting was already awesome and Iâd actually be quite satisfied with that as my end product, let alone my beginning values sketch!
đi just fell in love...
A fascinating video, but I'm far more interested in what Aleksandra has to say than in the music. I do understand, though, that there are those who find the music a really important part of the experience. Does CZcams allow videos to have multiple soundtracks? The best way to serve both audiences might be to have an âEnglishâ soundtrack with the speech prominent in the mix and a second soundtrack with just the music.
(The board game community often uses a similar trick with the subtitles, (ab)using the Klingon(!) channel for clarifications and rules corrections.)
Wow. He blocks in the colors like an oil painter.
That's because they're trained artists. They went to school for this.
