Very cool experience, thanks to everyone I met there! Hope to see you next year
BTW. There is a scammer in the comments, be careful out there folks!
New video idea, painting a kill team that you can store in your beard.
Loved this video! I just can't believe the blends, it's just incredible. I did not like the model itself, maybe I'm too much into fantasy figures, who knows, but the paint is IMPRESSIVE, definitely Golden Demon material, no doubt about it.
I've spent even more than 100 hours on some of my minis and they don't look as good as yours. You can paint in maybe 1 hour a much better mini that I would get in 50, I have to live with that. Your videos are making me get better and that's more than enough for me.
About the freehand markings… well, I'm still trying to recover my dropped jaw.
And finally, the base. If you are not good at basing, then I'll have to consult a dictionary to find the proper term for my bases 😆
A commended entry is, IMHO, something to be very proud of, really. So, GO ZUMIKITO 🦾🦾 Congratulations, really 😃
And for the scammer, I trolled him FOR DAYS 😆Very funny indeed 😆
I want to double check, that's not you that left a comment for me is it?
That's what I thought. Good at first glance but doesn't really stand up when you stop for a second.@@DervishD
@@alexanderthomson6966 At first it may look legit but really it is a quite common scam, and even if you trust the looks, the moment the scammer starts writing in very poor English, offering you totally unbelievable presents, it is clear it's fake. I already reported the CZcams channel but I'm not sure if it still up, and warned Zumikito just in case.
And as I said, since this is a very well known scam, I contacted the scammer and had fun trolling him and making him waste quite a lot of time.
A Czech man getting drunk only once a week is a big accomplishment in my book. Shows the dedication.
As a Scot I can agree
plot twist; the guy sleeping on the airport floor is Zumikito
I'm Scottish and Czech fear my alcoholic heritage
I actually won a few Golden Demons over 20 years ago, only getting back into the hobby now. My winning miniatures from back then couldn't hold a candle to what you and other modern painters do. There were no online painting tutorials back in the day, we were just some young guys trying out what might work. The general level of painting has risen so much, it's absolutely amazing. So much more to learn, thanks for the inspiration!
Yeah! I started in 1996. the good old days had no comparison, just the guys lurking in the local Games Workshop-Store!!!
Tell me about it! Just got back into the hobby and there are so many new things. The modern acrylic paints for one are blowing me away. I won a mini painting contest at (Chessmaster? Gamemaster?) in the Santa Anita Mall back in... '85? '86? I painted what must have been a Warhammer GW mini as it was an Ork with a blaster pistol and a big knife. I probably used all Testor or Humbrol...maybe some Tamiya. The quality of minis and the modern painting methods are a game changer! And all the tutorials online...what a difference! If you didn't link in with someone at your local hobby shop back then it was all self taught. Anyway, awesome paint job, love the channel.
I'd love to see pictures, if you have any.
@@fallbranch YT won't let me post a link unfortunately, I only just noticed my comment didn't show up. You can find some very low resolution pictures by looking up the Demonwinners Germany in 2000, category Command Group, Battlefleet Gothic and Open category.
@@viggotannhauser7251 Oh, cool. It's kind of a blurry mess tho. The other winners are a good example of what you meant tho.
I feel like "bases don't matter" has not been true for a long while. Simple example: look at Chris Clayton's piece. The whole premise would not have worked w/o that giant waterbase. Bases are important to set the scene and support the narrative. And it can add to the wow factor if you include an idea that is fresh and intriguing.
I agree that they do matter, but more so in some categories than other. Duels and dioramas feel like they have the highest importance (no surprise there). But certainly the base can not be a fat nothingburger in any category, so the krieg could use so much more diversity for sure. However, one LOTR medalist still had quite minimalistic base with outstanding mini.
@@Zumikito yes...no...maybe...who knows with GW 🤣 it's all arbitrary.
Very nice mini in any case!
2:45 wow he actually left the house, that is some next level effort for the competition!
Amazing entry and loved the video. 100 hours to achieve that is an enormous accomplishment and you should definitely be proud for that reason alone. Not to mention commended entry given that competition? Amazing. Absolutely something to aspire to for me.
First off: that mini looked fantastic.
Second: the editing, presentation everything about this upload is superbe. Respect for having a terrific flow throughout the video.
Another thriller story since fan favorite oil wash incident. You are a skilled miniature painter with inspiring progress, astonishing achievements and thoughtful guides, providing all kinds of support for your viewers in this hobby! In my humble opinion, with all due respect to other content creators, there is no better place to become an excellent miniature painter, than Zumikito's channel. My kindest congratulations to you!
I saw your entry in the cabinet. It was absolutely excellent and the commendation card was well deserved. It was my first time entering as well and I also managed to get commended in 40k single! The standard was so high this year, I was blown away by just how many amazing entries did not get a trophy.
I think you should still be proud of that mini dude. That thing is fucking amazing and you put more dedication in that one mini than I have into anything in my entire life haha. It’s stunning to say the least.
I still can't get over how good those blends on the shoulder pad are. That is a level skill that is beyond mere mortals for sure!
For every golden demon you lose, simply add that model to the base of the next mini you enter. This will both spice up your base, and eventually you’ll just have a single mini standing on top of a pile of bodies of golden demon losers.
Awesome retrospective! The editing of the entire video was amazing and made the whole thing super enjoyable. Keep up the good work!
Well done mate. The fact you entered and spent the time and effort on a single kickass colour popping mini is more than enough.
Congrats on the commended entry, that's honestly huge. Beautiful painting and videomaking here, love seeing all these GD videos coming out.
Wish you the best for the next golden demons, and congrats for this sergent, it's still really impressive !
Congrats on the commendation! Very nice paint job, I love it. Good luck for the next one.
Amazing work! Absolutely love it and congrats on achieving the success and the journey.
For what it's worth, that mini is its own trophy! It came out looking great :)
Awesome miniature aside, that editing was top notch. Love seeing scenes being in sync with music. That takes way more effort than people realise. Kudos.
I always like your work, win or lose. I thought your entry looked awesome. I live for your videos and excitedly await each video you upload.
Well done on the GD result mate! Also loved the editing on this video!
Just wanted to say that I really like the style of your videos. Keep it up!
The Golden Demon competition in the UK this year was insane. The level of talent seems to have skyrocketed, and the bases are becoming works of art on their own.
I definitely think you want at least a year before an event to prepare, paint some test models, test schemes, and make a base that is up to the competition.
Your paintjob was literal perfection. I would be beyond overwhelmingly satisfied if I could ever paint something that well, so who cares if you didn't win a trophy for it or not, 'cause that model's clear proof enough that you've become a master of your craft
You are very kind, thank you. I think the model can still be improved (even if marginally so), but in fact, the base could use an upgrade the most!
I found it wonderful up-close such a cool and clean paintjob!
Great video - It was great to see some of the work you did.
Amazing job on that mini! All the time you invested into it really paid off, those transitions are incredible.
Amazing entry mate, your painting is so smooth.
That looks absolutely amazing!
Great report - I wouldn't be too disappointed, mate. Commended entry is a very significant achievement, especially considering how saturated the competition was with all these entries after missing years of competitions. The quality of the field is really amazing.
Congratulations!
Amazing story, amazing quest - fingers crossed!
It`s just a matter of time, your miniatures are always beautifully painted.
This is your best CZcams entry by far, more of this please :)
Congrats on the commended entry! I think you'll get a demon. You're an excellent painter and you paint in a way the GW seems to like. This was by all accounts the most competitive year EVER.
Hey man! Awesome video. I really loved your pieces, congratulations on your pins and commended entries! Thank you for including my Saruman.
Hopefully see you at the next competition!
Hopefully! 👊
With painting skills like this, you've already won... my heart :P
Commended on your first ever entry is phenomenal!
I‘m happy for you that you tried and learned something to try it again next year! Your kriegsman still looked awesome in my opinion 🙏🏼
Wow. Surprised to see Honza. I remember seeing his exceptional work on Confrontation miniatures back in 2003
Respect man! Amazing entry!
Bro that NMM is some of the best I've ever seen. Well done!
this was really insightful. I have plans to try and enter next year, between the US entries and swig the results from the UK event, I am pumped
This is a solid entry, you can be proud of it !
Congrats to you! I love your attitude to keep competing. I guess it will get you further and will push your own boundaries. And hey, even Chris Clayton, who won not only golden demon but the slayer sword competes since end of the 80's. Having a piece that was considered to be a winner is an amazing result for your first ever mini.
This is beautiful. You are an artist .
Cracking looking mini top job
All this time...I didnt know I was watching a czech youtuber. Your english is very good. And your content is top quality. I am a beginer painter and I have been loving your videos. Maybe one day I will be able to paint decently. :D Anyways thanks for the vids.
Beautiful piece and well deserving of a commended. 👍
The editing quality is on point... Just like the blending
Good job in the competition, good piece, better luck next time
This is one of the coolest mini ever, very "simple" yet it stands out so much !
When I see it, I wanna start a Warhammer game
I would like to thank you for all of your videos.
Grats on the commended entry; that's excellent!
12 DAYS. Damn, i can imagine the stress my dude. But i really loved the paintjob. It's the first and big step for bigger things my dude. Amazing video as always
Cheers for the mention 😃 and for the fun and discussion we had at the pub.
Baller video and figure! Looking forward to the basing videos!
it's absolutely beautiful!! Imo, there are not enough competitions or competition spots for the amount of entries. There are absolutely much more people who deserve to get a trophy.
Congrats on the commendation in single minis, with such a competitive format it's already an accomplishment !
I love the mini, crazy good blends! Also I appreciate LIttle Big music.
Subbed for that entry. As well as they dude fast asleep in the airport... Oh blighty, where would we be without you.
Great mini and video !
Getting a finalist pin is actually genuinely amazing.
very cool mini sir! at least it appears you had fun.. which is the most important!
That is so clean it's like you pulled it out of a different dimension
Fantastic looking miniature 👏
Wow I really really like that mini!
This things looks so good. You're as good as anyone else who entered. 👍
I think the trovarion video about the Golden Demon winners is really informative on how things evolved (simple base, conversion or not). Overall how a miniature wins over another is really opaque anyway but... it's a painting competition, not a math test.
Nice video, your miniature is 👌
Can't wait to see your next entry
Didn't expect to hear little big here! Cool video!
Damn man, I always love your painting style. It was an amazing piece. I'd be surprised if you don't win next year!
That oliver tree track hit me out of nowhere, I was not expecting that XD
looked great
Another great vid. 🎉
Great looking model.
It’s about the journey they say. Great video
I seldom comment on miniature painters stuff, but I have to say I liked the quality of your entry. Well done, bud.
When the Little Big kicked in I started dancing hahahahaha. "Turn it up!!!!!!!!"
I mean for "just" 100 hours and for your first time you did great! Also the mini looks incredible! I love the Non matlic metal and the glow effect!
Thats a beautiful model
Looking good. The winner of the Slayer Sword said he spent 360+ hours on his. I could never imagine spending even close to 100 hours on a single mini, so very impressive.
That’s incredible
Your mini was sweet. Great entry.
Goddam those blends! Feels like I could swim around in them.
Well, if nothing better, you got some wicked montage skills out of it.
Hell yes Little Big!!! Love their music
Good job anyway-looks really nice - even if i prefer more other stuff, i appreciate your work!
Very cool
máš neskutečnej paintjob a díky za videa
Whew model is sweeeeet
Really nice video!!! I wish than one day I could paint my first ever entry for a GD, and this video is really helpful for people like me. Thanks mate!!!
Ll
Not sure which looks the most majestic, your beautiful Golden Demon Krieg fella or the beard tbh!
I think it looked fantastic.
Now I want to see what I can do with a 100h paintjob... Thanks for the video!
Persifal, Honza Skypala and Zumikito in one room = national treasure concentrated :D
Congrats on your commended :D you did great, I need to do stippling more :) I got a pin in single model 40k as well :D
Well done on your commended entry 👍😁 When you said that you were thinking of starting a new mini with just a few days to go I immediately thought that there was no way that was possible. As a Vincie V subscriber I get the impression that 100 hours is the minimum needed for a Golden Demon entry and would have meant you painting almost 24 hours per day every day! Better luck next year 😀
good job man
Now I'm waiting to see the complete regiment.
Shows how good the level is when an amazingly well painted figure like this doesn’t win. It must be an ensemble of the chosen figure, the quality of painting and colour choices and of course the X factor - artistic license.👌👌👌
