This is a great "cleaner"/fancier companion to the super rusty version Peachy did at the Painting Phase a bit ago, great combinations possible too
It's almost limitless
I absolutely love your battle mud wash! It's like the old school agrax.
Ikr?! I wasn’t around during the old school agrax earthshade but I absolutely love the grime-y effect the mud wash has
Thanks guys. Were glad you like the paint. We are super happy with the way the washes came out 😊
Painting terrain is a wonderfully messy process at times. There's some great techniques on display here. Personally I really like the not-quite-drybrushing for large models like tanks. A softer drybrush works best for this in my experience. Something like a makeup brush making circular motions. You almost buff the colour onto the model and it looks great.
Also, never expected to see Duncan do object source lighting. As rudimentary as the technique shown in this video might be, it's still a great looking effect. If you get confident using that on a few terrain walls then you can start doing it on your infantry or vehicles. Plasma guns in particular can look great casting a glow on their wielders.
Brilliant timing for this one, I was just about to start painting my ship terrain. Love how grimy and dank you made it, without being TOO nasty.
Awesome. Thanks very much. We're glad you like it 😊
i just started painting these and by THE EMPORER; this is what i needed!!!!
Holy Emperor this is the best I’ve seen, definitely doing it with mine!
Awesome! Thanks for the kind words Chapter Master Valrak 👍
Best. Tutorial. For into the dark terrain. Thanks so much.
I’m loving the new theme tune! Great tutorial as usual. I’m gonna use this for a hidden underground mechanicus manufactorium in my narrative campaign.
Ohhh...that sounds cool.
I love this version, it seems fairly quick to drybrush on, but looks very neat and you can always add additional details later.
Absolutely!
As if I need I needed any more reason to pick some boarding action terrain lol you make it look easy
Duncan Rhodes... Terrain... just perfect xD
Mate youve done it. I just bought my first minis - orcs. Cant wait to pain them. I watch quite a bit of painting channels because they are very soothing, but you inspired me. Cheers.
I just got this set and I’ve always struggled with glowing effects so this is perfect!
Awesome. Glad we could help
Just picked up the boarding actions box as my first ever terrain project. This video will be a great help, thank you.
Awesome and have fun 😊
Beautiful terrain piece 👍. This is what i want on the board.
i fininished very recently this terrain, its an amazing piece, it can get as much or as little as you may want to. I wish this tutorial came sooner so i could do the lights in a more similar way to yours, i just blasted them with my airbrush after doing all of the colors xD
Agreed. You can take these as far as you want too. They provide a great back drop to your games 😊
Thanks Duncan! The explanation for painting the green screens is so easy to understand, but just tried it and the effect is great!
This is great. I wonder how it would look with a mad assortment of different metallics - might take forever, though.
Watching for the basecoating tips, as I have a 3rd Edition ruin to work on today.. Thanks!
Glad to help!
I am making rhino for my death guard army and your light painting tip is perfect timing! Thank you.
Awesome.
Looking great!
Thank you! Cheers!
Looks awesome! 👍🏻
Thanks for the video!
thank you , DRPA .
🐺
You too Loupis Canis 🐺
Good stuff Duncan! Your paints (Especially battle mud wash) are fantastic and I can’t wait to get some 🖤
Glad you like them! And thank you :-)
I went the lazy route on my Boarding Actions set (aka I was too excited about playing with them). I just used my airbrush to blacken-prime all of the pieces (ignoring the join sections of course) and went all "Rusty-tacky." Used random Greens, and orangish primer sprays, then threw a bunch of rust washes from Vallejo/Citadel/etc (airbrushing and brushing). Then I went back and attempted to do some highlights with either some drybrushing and skull coloring. Still working on the metalish details and stuff like the TV screens. But then I see videos like this and I feel like I went too lazy lol. so much better detailing in the long run. My "ships" look like an instant Tetanus nightmare.
Quite fun though! I'm starting to enjoy painting terrain or bigger models over tinier ones now. Going to try your tip for Necrond Compound though! I forgot that I bought some and haven't really used it much.
That sounds like a fantastic terrain set 😊
awesome colour scheme!!
Thank you!
Love your videos!
excellent as always! keep up good work!
Thanks, will do!
Duncan Rhodes channel is the Real Master Class
Wow, thank you for the kind words :-)
Mon General at his best painting 🤟
This is great.
I may have a go at this for my dark uprising stuff that is still waiting for me to paint
Nice 👍
Nice nd easy glow effects on the lights 👍
Yup, simple and effective, easy to achieve for anyone 😀
This is what I wanted to see. Clean ship walls out of the space hulk terrain
Thanks :-)
Excellent work Duncan! Ate you going to be painting all of the ITD terrain to this level? It took me a whole month to finish mine at a way lower level. Felt like I never ran out of terrain pieces 😆
Great Tutorial! Im definitlely going to use the green glass recipe for my Bloody Rose Sororitas. What's a citadel equivalent to Wyvern Green? I don't have your paint line (yet; backed Wave 2 and am looking forward to it!)
Awesome and thank you.
Wyvern Green is similar to Caliban Green
The lord and savior of The Great Holy Brush returns!
You guys should do a crossover with the Painting Phase! Get Peachy n' Dunc back together
Love the videos. Do you think you could do a guided on crouex blades the blood angels successor chapter
Duncan - what do you think of using Dark Reaper and then Incubi Darkness over the top? Just to build out some interest in the blue/black wall sections? I love the scheme here but my eye for colour isn't what it used to be.
As relaxing as it was informative. I'm looking forward to painting my terrain now, though the required sanding (to stop it fitting too tightly) less so. V.good.
Awesome. Yes, it's a little tedious but it's worth it in the end. Having awesome scenery for a game is so satisfying and helps add to the over all atmosphere 😀
Fantastic as always Dunc. I was curious, do you plan to attend warhammer fest this year?
Hey Duncan I’m currently painting my first Blood Angels units and have a question regarding wash vs contrast I’ve currently base coated my units in Mephiston red and wondered whether it would be best to use Flesh Tearers contrast over the top or just use Nuln oil? Any tips or advice? Many thanks!
Very nicely done! I'm surprised that neither Typhus Corrosion nor Ryza Rust came to use. Then again, that might have been too much.
What I'd like to know, if you don't mind, is how you ended up handling the poor-fitting tops and tongue-in-groove wall components. Did you leave them as is and prime them? Cover them in blue tape? Sand them down? just assemble it and prime while they're covered?
These walls have so much detail. What are some good time-saving techniques for this?
Looks fun enough for one wall but I can't imagine doing the entire set @_@
thumbnail is funny = )
How do you prime a large model without a stand, like the Rhino?
'Carry on until you're happy...' That might take a while.
Doors and corners, kid. That's where they get you.
Nice
Would it be okay to ask for a citadel brown wash that I can use instead of the 2TC one?
Sure. Agrax Earthshade would be perfect 😊
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA I appreciate you letting me know. It felt a little awkward asking. I did like the paints you showed off and will check out the store. Figured I would use up my current washes while I had them first
I shudder to think how long the full Boarding Action Set would take to paint.
A fair bit. But once done, it'll be worth it 😊
Took me 3 hours for the base coat on all the pieces, probably 3 more for the details
Muy bien, pero lástima que no pintase el cableado. Le habría dado más vidilla a la pieza, con tonos verdes, azules, amarillos...
True, We did think about it to be honest but for this specific video we felt it was too much. Saying that though, it sure would look nice 😊
So nice, but doing an entire set like this is gonna take ages.
Took me 2 weekends. Total of 20 hours give or take with no airbrush cheating. I didn't do the glowing light effects after how time consuming the one I did was.
The dry brushing and wash stages took literal minutes. I batch painted each set that looked exactly the same.
I also didn't fix every mistake because honestly no one is going to look at these up close. Its literal back ground pieces.
So I finally primed all of my minis (I’ve got about 2,500-3,000pts of Black Templars) and I’m still nervous to try to paint them. I did kinda paint three chainswords, two pauldrons, and a couple of items on the Impulsor and Primaris Redemptor Dreadnought but then I quit.
I expect that they’ll all be painted in time for 12th edition to launch.
How about a quick video some time where you show us how to properly clean the brushes using brush soap AND HOW IN THE CRAP DO WE KEEP PAINT AND WATER FROM GETTING DOWN INTO THE DARN METAL BECAUSE IT SEEMS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE.
Sigh.
For me it isn’t the painting but to goddamn connections having to be filed down that makes building the terrain the most painful building I’ve ever done.
Same. Shouldn't be the case with this premium segment terrain GW wants us to pay for.
It can be a chore but in the end, it's worth it.... possibly 😂
Second that, I've still not finished my personal set. Built one set for my FLGS, but it took three of us over four hours.
I had it primed and base coated in two hours with no help.
Pole
Awesome!
@@DuncanRhodesDRPA awesome is having lunch right now with your content
Now that IS AWESOME!
Just a comment for the algorithm.
Thanks! It all helps
Collab with Peachy when?
Maybe one day when schedules allow 😉
My metallics split when I thin them.
Looks nice, but I will continue to search for a speed painting method for this bulk of terrain.
Great idea. Thing about terrain is that you can take it as far as you want too 😊
Duncan just slapped his had in a pot of rhinox hide and caliban green to make the thumbnail
Hey dude. Your website is down.
Thanks, looks like it was only temp.
Spiffy intro and graphics
Now do it.. 48 more times.
THREE ETERNITIES LATER...
CRAP! I FORGOT THE BOLTS!
Thank god someone did this terrain without following the blindingly obvious and really boring prime, drybrush, contrast, contrast, drybrush done speedpaint obsession on YT.
much better tutorial. informative and descriptive. that peachy character does a horrible job.
Is it just part of the trade that you waste that much paint? like is that something they encourage you all to do to show using large puddles of paint for small little details and then just leaving them behind like it's no big deal? l imagine that really helps sell a lot more paint, I know you're kind of your own boss now but I'm assuming they're after is many years as you've done this habits are hard to break. but then again you do have your own painting line now so it probably wouldn't pay to break that habit
Convo with my son after watching.
S: daddy why arent the walls you painted clean like that.
Me: well those were ork building, there supposed to look dirty and cobbled together.
S: your orks need to clean their walls, these look better.
🤣🤣🤣 Kids....
Spaceship corridors should be either military grey or ocean grey.
Hoarding Action - compete to fill your accommodation with waist-high piles of costly, perpetually unpainted plastic things, making basic household tasks impossible and imperilling your solvency.
Totally separate to video, but would you consider something like Heroquest painting guide. Most seem to be contrast quick ones and would love a proper painting guide, even if behind a paywall? 🤔
Not a bad idea...
