Thank you for "Learn to let go". Real life painting advice that needs to be said way more often.
Just found your channel, instant sub.
Thanks Tommy! Welcome
I absolutely have never done WarHammer once and yet i watch these things start to finish. Own zero minis. No paints. Please do an Insider Scoop video on 'How i Write Scripts, Get my Intro, Do my Thumbnails & Stuff'? That would rock. No one else would watch it, sure... but i just wanna know your Ancient Secrets! Otherwise... fantastic video, as usual.
Thank you so much Grimm! Really appreciate it =] I don't know if I could do a video like that tbh, not sure how it all works myself
I'd watch it
Start !!
These are just gorgeous! This channel needs to be bigger than it is, these are some of the highest quality painting videos I've seen in a long time. Hats off to you man. Can't wait to see the Grimey Wimey technique on a full force!
Thanks Spy! Grimey Wimey is coming (kinda) soon =]
Excellent job, CC Minis.
Your light hearted approach welcomes new painters to just get in and have fun. The "learn to let go" speaks volumes.
I went onto my daughter's account to watch your video and give you yet another bonus SEO comment. Do i have a life? Apparently not. I like that you admit that you kind of made this video for yourself - makes you super-relatable. Well done!
Thank you for your service Elana!
Drying retarder?!? Oil paints!?! In a speed painting video?!? MAD MAN!!!
@@aegrisomnia I like to live dangerously
for the lava, use crackle paint over the glue, it drys smaller than the area you paint it on and breaks up quite lava like
Can't understand why you don't have more subs! Love your vids - and you! PERSONALLY
I appreciate that!
The pop pop looks great with these colors!
Thanks BP!
Nice quick painting method. If I ever have to paint an army in 10 hours and 23 seconds, I'm sure I'll be revisiting the Pop Pop Technique. Looks great, too!
Thanks Lo-Fi!
Excellent look.
Dude, you put a lot of love into this video and it shows. Great vibes and love the editing. Thanks for the great content!
Ima keep it a buck with you, your unique editting style and calming demeanor is underrated as hell. Subbed to you at 5k and was happy I found you with a random video in my algorithm.
Such a vibe keep it up king.
Really appreciate it =]
@@CCMinis all good man just keep being you
Those turned out sweet!!! The middle never looks as good as the end! (And we as Artists constantly forget that in the middle! Haha!)
you are hands down my fav painter on yt, every video is gr8 and entertaining
Absolutely loved this piece. Your videos are consistently super well constructed and a joy to consume. Might have to steal your painting techniques once again for my next video project 😜this OSL feel is exactly what I was looking for.
Go for it Country Fried! Thanks for watching =]
23 secs ...... HOW VERY DARE YOU
🤣
They look great!
It's my greatest shame in life so far
@@CCMinis 🤣
The amount of amazing tips you threw into this video is amazing. Also, the last one is extremely good advice... I've been working on a ghoul troop for Warcry lately, and maaaaan it's hard to speed paint it. I spent 15 minutes base-coating everything with the brush... then spent 40 mins per mini doing highlights because I wanted them to be super nice and smooth. I keep trying to find a middle ground where I paint faster than usual but still get a result I like, and oh boy it's hard to stop myself from painting more and more details.
Anyway, I love how that army looks! Great job on it
Amazing edit, great tips, and wonderful vibes.
Nice
Thanks Sam! You're nice
Nice video.
I like the advise about letting go.
Please do a video about going back over this "painted army" to add to the lava bases. The before and after photo's should "pop"!
This is the first video of yours that I've seen and I'm super impressed! Keep this up man! I love this!
Learn to let go... Thanks mate
Anytime McGufalo
Great paintjob! Considering a simple unit takes me more than twice this time, I'm pretty impressed
Great looking army! I liked your technique and I will try it out
Looks amazing
Thanks!
I got so many unpainted models I might try out this technique. Thanks
(do it)
Those look pretty damn cool. What a neat idea to use two distinct light sources like that.
Maan , so glad I found this video , btw I got the portable compressor from Ninjons video , as someone without the space and needing a quick and quiet set up this works and let's me dip into the world of spray painting . If I mess up this airbrush I don't have to sweat it too much so as a beginner set for under 80 dollars it's a must buy for me. Ty for the vid , kinda inspired me to keep my idea alive of moonlit ravenguard in a fire lit battlefield to fit the 10th edition trailer except I'm gonna use purple instead of blue to show moonlight . Idk if you notice but if the conditions are right orange and purple are the night sky colors as the sun sets and stays purple depending on the time of year
Moon light Raven guard will look so dope! Yea purple would work perfectly for this
love the outcome looks amazin just got an airbush from my wife as a gift not really sure how to paint minis with it sacrificing the mini of the month to practice haha
In Germany we had a commercial ages ago for our national railway company, that kept repeating „3 minutes are 3 too many“ - referencing their improvements made on delays. Of course you can still rest assured that you‘ll be waiting for the train to arrive when you’re late at the station 😅
In that spirit, 23 seconds is 23 too many!
This identifies as a hate comment 😜
I haven’t tried oil paints, but the back and forth of applying and removing it makes me shy away from the idea. The result looks awesome!
Ahhhh haha yes I'm sure 23 seconds would be an uproar near you! Thank you! Give em a shot, they only reactivate with the right chemicals so they are still trusty paints once dry (tho that can take days)
Really enjoyed the vid. I'm still in slow mode on my mini painting journey, and it took me like 10 hours (i think more actually) to get a half decent paint scheme on my void dragon 😆but this looks like a great simple way to paint. Now I'm wondering If I can apply it to any of my presently grey models and have them still look like they belong together.
Give it a shot Night City!
Great work dude 👍👍
Well you really took the approach of not painting every detail to an extreme. And the result looks nice but doesn't look finished to me. It doesn't even have the 3 basic colours required to be tournament legal.
If you are satisfied with such paintjob you could have obtained a similar result much faster:
-If the idea is to start painting the entire model in dark blue why don't you prime the model in that colour instead of black, that saves you 52 minutes.
-In the same time it took you to do those edge higlighting you could have done several layers of drybrushing with different color creating great grandiant, Drybrushing is amazing if you need a quick highlight over large area with a lot of details, which is exactly what you had there.
-The Oil Wash all over the model seems completely unnecessary, it just darkened a model that was already very dark, located wash in specific area would have done the job much faster without ruining you previous paintjob.
-To save your OSL effect after ruining with an oil wash you had to go over it with bright red sponge technic , ruining the orange highlight you did before
So all in all, prime directly in dark blue, replace edge highlight by multiple dry brushes, do a localised black wash, and skip the red sponge part and you will get a better result in like 6-7h.
It has 6 colors, so I'd be shocked if any tournament has issues with it ;]
@@CCMinis I don't know if highlight and shadow are considered extra colours, realistically I think you're fine but you never know.
Cool 👍
You're cool!
This color scheme be poppin. 🎉
Thanks Funky!!!
Although you might not want to pick out individual colors (although it'd help), you might want to do some brushwork to differentiate the values at least. Even in moonlight, the white skin and the dark iron armor of a vampire wouldn't look the same. Skipping that step will have you end up with a statue-like look.
Very kool
You're Kool!
@@CCMinis 🤣
I have most of the pro acryl paints and want to try this myself, do you happen to have the complete paint recipie? love the content bro
Ya ya. Base of Payne's grey all over, zenithal with faded ultra marine, start the glow with the darker red (can't remember the name, but it's in the base set of pro acryl), increase brightness with bright pyrol red, edge with orange, edge with faded ultra marine with a drop of white mixed in, black oil wash all over, remove excess, sponge bright pyrol, base rims with Payne's grey, fin.
Did you 3d print any of these models? Theyre awesome! Either way that was a cool video. I definitely hit the sub button
Nope, not these ones! All GW kits. The bloodknights are old dragon prince kits, the big boy dragon rider is a out of production high elf dragon lord, and the bats are from cursed city
9:45 Oils and solvents melt the plastic
that lava effect at 13:30 was awesome... we need a tutorial.
No dry tips over here. Great painting tutorial gone sexual PHEW
"Aim for 100% but learn to be happy with 80" is a quote I live by, both professionally and personally!
If you speed paint an army, and after it's seen some use you want to revisit the paint job - do you have to do much cleaning/removing? Or is it enough to wipe them of and continue to paint?
Here from Boylai's video! Loved the video, you've got a great narration style! Also absolutely dig that giant timer, do you have an amazon affiliate link for that too? I love not paying more when you get a small commission
Thanks Patrick and welcome! Here is an affiliate link to the timer, you don't pay more, I get a small commission - you know the drill: amzn.to/43MwFhi
What size is your “big boy” brush? 6 round?
That's a number 9 my dude. Big boy
Do you think that putting more details into HQ would ruin the look of the whole army, or not?
Souldn't be an issue, worst case scenario take 30 min to repaint the hero
[looks at my box of unpainted Cursed City]
*Huh.*
(do it)
ajajajaja oleos.. emanel con bencina blanca ....
Awesome stuff mate, love your approach! One question, how would you do tanks with this technique? As obviously the osl is coming from the base which tanks lack!
I’m a beginner but would you be able to contrast paint over this for individual colours?
Beatiful color scheme! Need to try it on a vampire mini for sure :)
I always struggle with the oil wash step. I find the airbrushed layers too fragile to handle rubbing with a sponge and inevitably layers peel off in the process. Do you varnish in between steps to prevent this from happening?
Interesting, I've never had that happen personally so I do not varnish. It couldn't hurt tho!
Thanks for the shout-out broski #sixseasonsandamovie
Let's all cross our butts it comes soon
Why you didn't drybrush in soooo many steps there, i can't brain at all. However, that last bit about 'letting go', was great. I'll give ya a 'like' based on that alone. Otherwise, you can do better in less time.
Dry brushing would certainly be faster, but manual brush work (and the sponge) tend to hide the "I just airbrushed the whole damn thing" look a little better ;)
It's cool, but I hate the trend of showing finished models with colored background lights as it ruins seeing what the the models you know, actually look like with a big purple led blasting at it.
Totally fair
Your mentality about speedpainting is nice but this time the army didn't look like finished to me.
After 8 months, would you be able to recommend the wireless airbrush?
Nope, it's got issues unfortunately. I'll dig into it more in a future video around the year mark
Too bad to hear that, as I’m on the market for one. What broke?
Didn't Joe Biden have a stand-off with Pop Pop in the sixties?
Great video.
Basecoat and cheat.
Yes.
🥳❤️👍🏿
How is an airbrush cheating?!?!
I have no idea! But some people think it
@@CCMinis i will like to hear that.. it is a tool used everywhere on the scale modeling
Haha, why are you long hair then short hair back and forth? I am so confused. Ifs like you did 2 videos then mashed them together. Great content but what's going on?
Long hair is me, short is my twin, Alpharious
Yikes. 10 hours...
