    Don't worry too much it's just a tabletop piece: proceeds to casually paint a miniature to a standard I could never hope to achieve trying my absolute hardest haha. Amazing work!

    I just did my intro set of Intercessors using a lot of advice in this video. I'm really happy with my with how they turned out. Especially for my first 40K models, and not doing any modeling in probably 36 years. Thanks for the help! Great video.

    Amazing to see your process. I've been working with oil washes on miniatures for a few years and I can recommend using small make-up sponges with thinner to remove the washes. It doesnt leave unwanted fibres like the cotton buds do. Saves a lot of hassle, but they tend to be more absorbent. Awesome work and truly shows your masterful control and experience as an artist.

    I recently got into miniature painting. Being a chaos guy myself, i chose as my first miniature a Great Unclean One. Iv been having a blast painting it but its not anywhere near perfect like the works of Richard Grey but I now have something to truly work towards. If i knew what I know now going into this I would have painted some of these pieces before gluing stuff down but in a few years when i learn more I will absolutely be picking up another Great Unclean one to do a comparison between where i started and where i end up.

    I absolutely love this. The only thing I have a minor dislike for is the initial stippling step adds the rough texture to the gold areas of the paint job and I don’t like the way it looks. But I think the textured look looks great on the blue parts of the armour. 🙌🏻👌🏻
