![How to paint Metallic / Iridescent Dragon Wings [Warhammer]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/kMDWTNUP4-Y/mqdefault.jpg)
literally watched this video around around 20 times over the past two days finally painting my hive tyrant wings which up until this video have terrified me. they went perfectly. Thanks for the tutorial!
This comment made my day! Thank you, Adam.
Exactly 😀👌
@@TesseractMinis If i'm painting a deathleapers "cloak" using this method, should I still go side to side or upwards and downwards? Sorry if this is a dumb question...
I didn't realize those were veins until watching the video. With the turquoise glaze, I was thinking of lightning bolts. I thought it was showing some type of magic or a dragon that uses lightning. In any case, great looking wing.
Yes i needed this my nids (gargoyels and hive tyrant) have been waiting a long time
I used this method on my hive tyrants wings but did a lighter fleshy colouration. My mate was convinced that someone else had painted it for me. I was really happy with the outcome, thanks so much for this!
This is an insane technique! I'm gonna try this on my Daemon prince!
Thanks for this mate. Been holding off painting the wings on a model I had custom made for fear of making an arse of it. This helped loads and really happy with the results. Top man.
I have been watching painting guides for the last two years and NOT one person has done a video for this! Well done!
Great work, easy to follow steps and nicely explained in a few minutes. Thats how Quick tips should work. Thank you so much.
This video has repeatedly popped up in my recs fir thebpast 2 years and for some reason i never watched (i really have no clue why) but boy im glad i finally did. Game changer.
Thank you for the wonderful tip. A new idea is always great for a new enthusiast like me.
That's a really cool way to do the wings, looks fantastic.
Thank you for posting this video, Sir! I'm currently magnetizing a Flying Hive Tyrant and will begin painting soon. I love how "natural" this looks! I've painted lots of winged Tyranids, from the little Gargoyles up to a Harpy. I may have to revisit them now...Cheers!
It was very inspiring. Awesome wing membrane painting tutorial.
Oooh! Wonderful! Here’s hoping it translates to a smaller model when I put together my Khinerai!
This is perfect, thank you so much for posting, this looks beautiful!!!!
Great tutorial, gonna try it on the model I'm currently painting!
This was the best tutorial I’ve watched, really accessible! thanks
So awesome! I have seen many tutorials and this is the One, the one to bind them all....Well, its the one that I will be using, thanks again and it is incredible, great job!
Love this! it looks great and well explained. Thank you.
Awesome tutorial straight to the point 🎉🎉
Awesome tutorial!
excellent, this is exactly what I am looking for.
Excellent how to video
The brighter veins simulate that they are raised surfaces and are less transparent, instead a more solid colour that catches the light. It's an effect which mimics the vascularity of bodybuilders and very muscular animals, which have larger, wider, less transparent veins which are covered by thick skin. As opposed to the veins of less muscular, transparent skinned animals that have visible blood flow and therefore have darker red or blue veins.
Definitely going to use this. Subbed keep up the amazing work.
This is amazing . Im looking into getting into AoS due to the new soulblight gravelords codex coming out , i amd deffo unsing this for the wings in that army.
Sweet blend like a fall leaf 🍁✌️
Amazing tutorial tsm
wow awesome video!! thanks a lot you were spot on what I was looking for!!
It's so easy and so cool!
Absolutely loved the video! How would you do it on the other side of the wing?
Love this video! Will have to rewatch a few times and figure out what paints are needed and I subscribed too!
Was meant to ask what did you do to the other side of the wings? Was thinking maybe the same thing but not as bright
Yeah that's about the extent of it. I didn't actually paint the other side - because it was done purely for this tutorial, but if I had, I'd have pretty much done the same thing.
worth pointing it, those white lines you used for the veins , they would make GREAT stretch marks on bloated parts
Awesome. Really. I will apply it on Montarion.
Thanks a lot for your help. Have a good day.
Absolutely fantastic video and an amazing result! Also, really great timing; I got my girlfriend the Reaper Bones Jabberwock mini for Valentine's and she wasn't sure how to do the wings. But now she knows lol
This is great news! I'm glad you liked it :)
Great video
Love it
Very nice. I glued my wing on already, probably shouldn't have done that
Wow. Great job. I recently got into painting miniatures and just did my first dragon. Love the how to. Sub'd and liked.
Verry.verry.verry amazing !!❤❤❤ thank you for this wonderful tutorial
Quick and efficient !what can we ask more !
You did an awesome job on that wing and this tutorial, I guess I was part of the explosion as led me to here etc :) Thanks for taking the time to share, painters like you are what makes the community so great with these inspiring pieces and even help long tooth’s like me to learn new things.
Thank you so much Andrew, that really is one of the kindest comments I've ever had! And don't worry, I'm pretty long in the tooth, too! I've been involved since 1991!
Your very welcome and wearing it well, funny enough I dropped out of the hobby around 91 and only just been getting back in the last couple of years 👍
Oh wow! It's definitely a really good time to be getting back in, huh? I was amazed at how much has changed, but it's definitely in a great place.
Awesome thanks
great!
The "veins" actually read like cracks, and that makes the membranes feel very thin because they let more light through
A-mazing!
Very Cool
that turquois glaze makes it look like its glowing and that fucking RAD
*looks at the collection of Creature Caster models* I should paint those ... using this as a guide.
I know that this is an older video, but this is a great video for flesh based nids, me personally I use metallic paints for my custom hive fleet
Nice tutorial!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Friend what about the underside of the wing? Im planning doing this but dont know uf going both sides or just the upper one :)))) thnksssss
This is awesome! What colour did you use for the base layer?
Absolutely love it! Just happened to find the channel and am now subscribed.
-John
Thank you John, I really appreciate that!
Thx m8, you help me a lot🤘🏻
Very awesome! Would love a paint list included in here though
GW Barak-Nar Burgundy
GW Bugmans Glow
VMC Sunny Skintone
VMC Emerald
:)
Really awesome work, and super Nice tutorial.. Im just wandering, for the Glaze, did you use the same color All the way, or did you mix them up like in the painting???
ooof, how is this not too hot for youtube?
Thx
Looks absolutely fantastic! One day I will be patient enough and take my time to do something like that but right now I need to finish my 2k points quicker. But thanks for showing this method!
Hive fleet skarok Flyrant scheme meets Otachi
Does somebody already mentioned you looked like Masterchief in the Halo serie ^^?
Also, thank you for your content^!
It blew up because it is awesome.
This ^
Great tutorial, thanks! I will try this on my tyranids, do you have a recommendation what color scheme one could build around this?
I'd probably pair this with some kinda desaturated teal/turquoise for the carapace.
This made me subscribe
Can you put a link for the brushes and glaze you use please? This really helped me out thank you for the video.
This is so good! Glad I found this! What turquoise did you use at the end???
Cheers Luke! It's Vallejo Model Color, Emerald.
Game changer
about to start painting tyranid gargoyle wings like this. Wish me luck. :)
Looks great! What color did you use for the turquoise?
It's Vallejo Model Colour Emerald :) glad you like it.
👏👏👏
Hey Stu, I absolutely love the effect and it looks as if I, as a novice painter, can do this on my Cthulhu BB model (yeah, it exists for 'reasons' XD). Quick question: the glaze with the clashing colour, did you just make that by adding water to the point that it becomes thinner than milk or did you add in glaze medium as well as water?
A glaze medium is never a bad idea, but in the example it's just paint and water :)
Cheers Erik, I'm glad you like it. I'll hope to see your Cthulhu on twitter :)
Oh wow great job!!
And about the dilution for the different layers? 1:1, 1:2, 1:3?
Thanks
I don't use dilution ratios, I just test the transparency to see if it's where I want it :)
Thank you for doing it with a brush ;D
Looks great, did you use a specific glaze medium to create that glaze?
Cheers, Dave! It's just water and paint. Whilst I do normally use a medium (I actually manufacture one), quite often, if I'm just doing something quick...water will do 😂
really nice video. can i ask you what you use for the turquoise?
Sure! It's Vallejo model colour Emerald
Nice turquoise
How did you create the glaze, what ratio of paint to water/medium/thinner?
Could you use a wash instead of making a glaze?
Do you have any recommendations for a GW equivalent of sunny skin tone? I don’t have that paint at my local stores :(
If i'm painting a deathleapers "cloak" using this method, should I still go side to side or upwards and downwards? Sorry if this is a dumb question...
is there a different way to paint the opposite side of the wings? I'd imagine the angles would be a bit different
I wondered the same
How do I make the "concave" side
Dark toward the centre, light toward the edges.
This tutorial helped me a lot for my first detailed wing membranes. May you have a tip on how to do the inside of it? Just invert the colors?
I'd honestly do the exact same on the inside, personally. Really really glad you got something from this. Thanks for watching!
@@TesseractMinis sounds reasonable. Think I'll give it a try then. If you want to see how my attempt went, i just gave you a follow on Insta and postet mine :-) It really helped as i first really didn't know how i want to do it and had like 3 attempts which i all painted over again until i found your video :-D
Do you repeat the process on the underside of the wing ?
I love this! Would the scheme work on white-primed models? Would you change anything to get it to work on white?
It would work fine, yeah. I'd just be careful to make sure you achieve complete coverage over the white.
@@TesseractMinis thank you for replying! I'm marrying it up with the coconut crab scheme so hoping it will be a great pairing 😅
Thank you! I t is a shame though I can't save this tutorial.
I enjoyed this very much, but it frustrates me a little bit that no one ever shows painting the inside wing! Thats the hard bit :(
update: Still doing the bugmans glow because it takes 500 hours holy hell
Fuck yeah!
Hello :) very good tutorial. You think i Can use it on the wings of dorghar ? ( Archaon Drake) I want to do think Like you but with a red tone menbrane. So i use a red tone as base and After use the three skin highlight like you and After red glaze ? what is the color you use for base the wings before the glaze ? .
I think you can use this method, for sure. The starting tone is Barak Nar Burgundy, from Citadel. If you want the top end to read more red, just layer up some brighter reds on those areas.
@@TesseractMinis ok thanks ! I will do that :)
what colours have you used?? thks
Also whats that wooden thing ypur useing when applying the barrak burgundy is it a spray or something
That's a home made hobby holder - it's a wooden cotton bobbin with blue tac on top, that I can stick the mini to, to make it easier to grip during painting.
This is a GREAT tutorial tip! Can you please insert into the next videos the name of the colours that you're going to use. I've understood the skin tones, but I didn't get the name of the purple base! Thank you 😅
Hi Giuseppe, thanks for watching!
I don't offer colour guides in my videos any more, because I don't really subscribe to the belief that they matter, or help. I prefer to try to encourage people to use their eyes, and make their own colour choices, rather than copy exactly what I'm doing. It's an important skill to have, and I think colour guides often discourage people from trying things unless they have the exact paints shown, which isn't something I want to put over in my content.
I'd recommend just using the colours you think are best! Although I believe the deep base tone on the wings is Gal Vorbak Red, from citadel, on this particular piece.
Good luck, and have fun!
I love this. My question is how you go about painting the skin and bones inbetween the wings without destroying the hard work you've done. I'm a sucker for drybrushing but not sure you could do that here?
I'd probably just build it up with careful brush strokes. It would be slow going, but with centrepiece models I think it pays to take your time where possible.
@@TesseractMinis Thanks for the reply. I'd really really appreciate your professional advice on what colours to replicate this process with where the scheme is a light grey body with airbrushed red accents on the arm joints and front of heads (you may have seen something similar online). The carapace is incubi darkness and pink horror in the vents.
I love the burgundy you used and went and got some but I don't think it goes so really would love any advice or suggestions you have. Appreciate your time 😊
What was the base coat color called?
Don't know how to get this to work on the new Tyranid Prime (Leviathan) as his wings are half folded with lots of creases... Would love some tips!!
I'd probably treat it more like painting a cloak (shade the recesses, highlight the raised parts), but use the same colours.
Wich is de base tone that you use for the darkest color? (Before bugmans glow)
I believe it was GWs Gal Vorbak Red
Is the underside of the wing pretty much the same or do you go in reverse where the lighter part of the wing is more at the edge rather than the center?
I just painted it the same, hence not showing it in the video :)
My question is, what does the underside look like? Did you reverse the process (dark towards centre and light towards edges) or did you do something different?
I didn't do anything - it was painted just for the demonstration in this video, so the back is just flat burgundy ☺️
Do you do this to both sides of the wings?
Yes
I'd love to know what the turquoise would look like as the veins but I'd be scared to ruin it!
Honestly I wish I'd done something like that. I think as long as you kept it thin you'd be fine
What brushes you using here and what is the turquoise paint at the end called?
Here i'm using a Rosemary and Co Series 33 size 3. There should be a link in the description of the video for where to get one.
The paint is Vallejo Model Color Emerald.
@@TesseractMinis thank you. My own tyrant is red with a black carapace. I assune i just go for a GW red shade?
What colours where used
*sorry if you already said i just woke up wanting to do the wings xD*
The colours are all given during the video.
@@TesseractMinis i just realised im a knob XD thanks ^^
