  • How to paint Death Guard Chaos Space Marine by Lester Bursley
    Script:
    1. Model Air OLIVE DRAB is airbrushed on to the whole model.
    2. Game Color PLAGUE BROWN is then sprayed at a downward 45 degree angle to highlight the top and vertical surfaces that light from above would hit.
    3. Game Color DEAD FLESH is sprayed from directly above the miniature for the brightest highlight.
    4. Before the wash is applied, Game Color GLOSS VARNISH is sprayed on the entire model for two reasons; to protect the airbrush work done so far, and to create a barrier for the wash cleanup with alcohol.
    5. After a couple coats of GLOSS VARNISH are allowed to completely dry, my wash recipe of BABY POOP is sprayed on to the entire model.
    6. Using IISOPROPYL ALCOHOL and a sponge makeup applicator, I remove the dried wash from the surface while trying to leave it in the deep detail areas.
    7. Game Color PLAGUE BROWN is applied to the fly icon on the right shoulder pad as well as the skulls on the left shoulder pad.
    8. Reaper Master Series color GHOUL SKIN is applied to all the flesh on the face.
    9. For the first highlight Master Series MOLDY SKIN is applied to all but the deepest recesses.
    10. The final highlight is achieved with Master Series paint BLOODLESS SKIN. Apply this to the areas of interest that you want to bring out and think of the areas that would be hit directly by light directly above the model.
    11. Vallejo Model Air color ALUMINIUM was the color chosen for all the silver pieces.
    12. Game Color BEASTY BROWN is thinned, 4 drops of water to 1 drop of paint, and applied to areas that I want rust.
    13. To make the chips in the armor a 1 to 1 mix of Game Color's CHARRED BROWN and BLACK is used.
    14. Highlights for the chips are done with a 1 to 1 mix of Game Color's PLAGUE BROWN and DEAD FLESH. Putting these highlights directly under the dark chip I made will help create the illusion of a 3D chip.
    15. Game Color DEAD FLESH is used to pick out some edges and the armor is done.
    16. Vallejo Pigment color GREEN EARTH is mixed with water to a wash consistency, then applied to the base being careful not to touch the feet of the model.
    17. Game Color BLACK is applied to the base lip, and when dry, the model receives a coat of Game Color MATTE VARNISH, then we're ready to game. Les' Tools

    Thanks for the tutorial, it will help my mighty chaos army hide its primer shame. Keep up the great vids so we can spread the word. Also thanks for mixing it up between airbrush and standard brush. There is no right way. We all do the best we can with whatever tools we got. the more I paint the better I get, regardless of tool. Les is more, lol.

    I'm not into this type of mini but had to say "fantastic vid" A1 paint job. Look forward to your next post.

  • @LesterBursleyMiniatures

    @peyo001 I did a poll a little while back and asked the viewers if they wanted me to stay with brushes or use what I got. It ended with a vote tally of: 12 wanting me to use BRUSH ONLY vs. 433 telling me to use whatever and show them how I paint my own stuff.

  • @graefx
    @graefx Před 13 lety

    The wash and alcohol over the gloss is a pretty cool trick.

  • @buckwheatgw

    @Stephanius Před 11 lety

    I've just done the first three steps of this tutorial on 75 plague marines. It took me less than a minute per model and layer. So yes, airbrushing base coats and highlights is faster than using brushes, even when drybrushing.
    Also, aribrushing will result in thinner layers of paint without any visible brushstrokes. Of course, there is a point in any model where you swap to brushes - for small details that need hard edges for example. I use an Harder and Steenbeck Evolution Airbrush.

    Being a long time nurgle-gamer it makes me glad seeing this. Really good paintjob, i liked the grey skin.. to bad that i paint my nurgle grey so it would be a tad to little contrast. :D

  • @Haggistom
    @Haggistom Před 13 lety

    Like this video a lot, although I am still trying to get to grips with the airbrush. I have had mine for a month and still trying to achieve a fraction of what you do. But like the last APJLes vid tells us, i will keep at it. Dettol(Simple Green equivalent in UK/AUS) is my new best friend!
    Thanks for all your efforts.

  • @suriassassin
    @suriassassin Před 13 lety

    Thx,Les

  • @LesterBursleyMiniatures

    @TheDuke07 The wash colorized the model while airbrushing. Even if applied with a brush it would have changed the tone of the model. Using the sponge to wipe it off of most of the areas kept the original color airbrushed while bringing out the details and adding a little grunge.

  • @cdstewart87
    @cdstewart87 Před 9 lety

    i love watching these videos. never used my airbrush as i feel i have not gotten good enough with a brush first. wonder if this is a normal feeling? (allso afraid of compressed air and paint mess)

    dude great freaking video great freaking video i love the chips in the armor im thinkin about doin some of these guys my self and i was wondering if you had any pointers for something oozing out of those dents and rents?

  • @LesterBursleyMiniatures

    @eq2templar Thanks! Yeah I fudged up the chip portion, it was suppose to be 30 seconds at 200% speed and I took the 5 minute section and sped it up to 30 seconds. So about 1000% speed :/ I'm still learning and trying to perfect my tutorials so I apologize.

  • @michart70
    @michart70 Před 13 lety

  • @Harbaugh87
    @Harbaugh87 Před 13 lety

    I love the video. One comment - I wish you would slow down the speed when showing some of the detail work at the end like the highlights on the armor/shoulder pad and the armor damage. It would be very cool to see what you are doing there and it was really hard to see because it was sped up so fast and you were turning the mini a lot. Thanks as always for these!! It is indeed an awesome paint job! :)

  • @LesterBursleyMiniatures

    @HueyOoeyKablooey The head is actually in cool grey tones. This was done to contrast the face from the model and compliment the warm tones of the armor. It was an artistic decision. While most of the models have helmets its good to bring interest to the random guy not wearing one. Using flesh tones would have blended it into the model but that is exactly what I didn't want.

  • @eq2templar
    @eq2templar Před 13 lety

    Outstanding, I believe this one is my favorite of all the models you've done thus far. Oh...and thanks for the seizure you gave me when doing the chipped paint effects! You need one of those warnings they put on video games. hahaha

  • @LesterBursleyMiniatures

    @ChaoticPainting Yeah I'm getting more and more of their line. The triad systems take the thinking out of mixing and color choice.

  • @texastony1946
    @texastony1946 Před 13 lety

    Thanks for this tutorial. I will certainly use the technique of airbrushing the wash and
    partially removing it with the makeup sponge. Great idea. When is your online store
    coming? Thanks again.

    Awesome vids btw, just getting into air brushing myself (and warhammer actually) and your vds have been rather helpfull

  • @Stephanius
    @Stephanius Před 11 lety

    I've just come across something worthwhile to add: I had big jars of Vallejo Wash meant for dipping (and then shaking off excess) shade onto the minis. When I looked at the consistency, I thought it might go through the airbrush. It went through beautifully (without even thinning it), with the wash instantly gathering in the edges and recesses as intended. Not as expensive as pre-made GW wash (200ml @ 16 Euro instead of 12ml @ 3 Euro) and not as cheap as self-made wash, but a solid option. =]

    Thx so much for reply I love your work so much As you know im new to airbrush and I was wondering if citadel paints work well in a airbrush. I notice you use different name brand of paints ( witch i am a big fan of those colors ! ) Are these paints you use higher quality ? And are they the same "type" of paint ie acrylic paint ? Whats the recipe for the Baby Poop ? I can ask questions all day :D thx so much

  • @willsham45
    @willsham45 Před 13 lety

    I really like the varnish, wash and alcohol technique...Just one thing, what do you use alcohol wise? White Spirits, or medical rubbing alcohol...or are they one the same?
    And while it is on my mind ace paint job, love it.

  • @savagex466-qt1io
    @savagex466-qt1io Před 11 lety

    I have never used a airbrush myself ( cant wait ! ) Do they give a more detail paint job then brushes ? And is it faster to airbrush a model rather then paint it all by brush ? Also If you could tell me the exact model of airbrush you are using or a model you would recommend for painting Warhammer 40k Thx so much I love your colors / work Papa Nurgle Bless You !

  • @HairyTaff101
    @HairyTaff101 Před 13 lety

    Very cool final model and a great vid.
    Could you perhaps slow down the vid in places like the 'chips' bit? That's the kind of small detail that makes all the difference that people might not know how to do and seeing it (even for a min or so) at double speed would be handy.
    Love the vids - learned a lot already.

    @Meentanker Good luck out there bud and keep safe! The BDU thing is very specific and no schemes actually use anything similar. A friend of mine did a desert scheme on his Sons of Medusa SM's but that was the only scheme I have seen with it. I'll see what I can do and post it on my blog.

  • @lordmetroid
    @lordmetroid Před 13 lety

    How do varnishes effect the airbrush? I am thinking, the inside will become quite messed up as it is coated with layers of varnish. Or metal flakes for that matter if one uses a metal color.

  • @LesterBursleyMiniatures

    @lordmetroid It doesn't matter. They are all water based paints, so metallic or whatever it all cleans up the same :)

  • @Uselesswizard
    @Uselesswizard Před 13 lety

  • @BigAndTall666
    @BigAndTall666 Před 12 lety

    @Nashrocks1 looks like the end of a "DeVilbies" or a "Paasche", Badger i realistically priced in comparison to other brands (like Iwata) and reliable as well as durable, buying a proper airbrush (like i.e. a Badger 150 or 100SG) saves you a lot of money in the long run and you will get the "feel" of a dual action airbrush from the beginning without the hazzle of starting out with single action airbrushes, the money saved can be used on a proper compressor and a moisture trap. Badger is my fav!
