Techniques in 10: Power Swords

In this video we take a look at how to paint lightning power swords. I will be showing you several different ways to paint your power swords that can be used from tabletop all the way to display. Personally I think this is a fun and interesting take on the weapons, adding some movement and an almost particle like effect behind the lightning.

Hats of to you sir.
Very good toturial as usual.
You really nail that lightning.

Keep it up!

[@jwminiatures]

Thank you very much mate, I appreciate it. Glad you are enjoying them!

[@CubicLice]

Such a unique and striking look, absolutely love it!

[@jwminiatures]

Glad you like it!

[@nicolasdubos2797]

Simple and yet very efficient ! Love it !

[@jwminiatures]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@GuthanSlayer]

finally, some space marine content!

[@jwminiatures]

finally, the marine content has come back to the channel

[@manuelgaertner6834]

Really cool effect!

[@jwminiatures]

Cheers mate

[@laleglad]

Looks amazing. Would a full version of the lighting also look good

[@jwminiatures]

Cheer mate. I've not tried a full version but it could definitely work, you would just have to play around with the spacing of the mottled pattern. If you think it would look good, definitely do it and let me know how it goes!

[@SkelliwagJones]

Cool effect. Keep up the awesome work.

[@jwminiatures]

Thank you mate

[@goforitpainting]

That could be a nice option

[@chrismurphy3745]

Bravo. Ever do necron blades or orbs ?

[@jwminiatures]

Thank you. I haven't done any necrons recently but when I get round to painting mine I'll be sure to record it
