      Hey man you actually did really well! Both of you did way better than most begginers, but to be fair you did have a total pro teaching you guys xD its really great seeing more new people get into the hobby. I'm always worried people will say "no its too hard im done" when its actually easier than it looks from an outside perspective. I mean its not always easy but as an outsider even a basic model like the ones you guys painted might look unattainable, but welp you guys saw how easy it was xD
      The painting community is the best I've seen, everyone is so friendly and welcoming so if you really get into it join Scott and John's facebook group and dont hesitate to reach out when you have questions or want feedback.

      Very much true. Especially to dive into the hobby as this is one of those things where you can research all you want but the most important thing is to just get paint on the brush and put the brush to your work.. no amount of pre-learning can substitute experience.

      I feel like for me it's tied to low level OCD... like if I make a mistake gluing a model together and ruin some detail I'll try to fix it with some modelling putty and obsess over it even if it isn't that visible, same with painting, and it drives me nuts.

And Curtis and Nick, you guys really killed it. I hope you've found the passion and confidence to continue in the hobby.

    After watching this video though, I'm actually quite excited about painting them and just giving them a go!!
    I'm going for the Shadowkeeper colour scheme (black and gold) as I want to show all the beautiful detail of the Custodes models. I feel like you lose that detail when you go ALL gold custodes.

    Your man with the long hair took the words right out of my mouth. I've always been a perfectionist so I find it difficult accept that my first army's worth of minis will suck. I know that you can always reprime and start again, but I want a finished army to actually play with. I've started painting a couple of minis with contrast and I can understand why some people like them, but even as a beginner I've got an itch to pick up some acrylics for a neater look. I probably think too much and paint too little though 😅

    Fear of failure is hard to get over. The important thing is to just start, get paint on a brush, get that paint on a mini. Start with something that you are not afraid of messing up. Watch a few how to videos to get ideas for color schemes. It's not going to turn into an award winning paint job your first time out, but just getting that first one done and learning will instill some confidence. I say this as someone with less than 20 minis under my belt, but I am already trying out dry brushing, wet blending, and spicing up my bases.

    I loved this format! I think having the two noobs in there helps in a number of ways. In addition to boosting my confidence -as an "advanced beginner", their candor made me feel like I was a two times Golden Demon award winner, a rugged veteran, a pro- I think they are a potent way to have you go through some basic stuff that you wouldn't otherwise touch on but which is nevertheless useful for beginners. Hopefully this is a thing you could keep doing in the future? I'd love to see these two progress, face new challenges, discover new techniques...

    This is a good format for beginner painters. Seeing things like the paint and water mixed on the pallet is a great way to learn. And it's entertaining.

    I'm a beginner myself, I started painting my first mini a few days ago after weeks of watching videos on how to. This is the most useful one i've found so far (while also being very entertaining!).
    THANK YOU

    This has been awesome!! I’m new to the hobby and COVID had meant I couldn’t get anywhere to learn to paint with other people. You guys asked so many questions I’ve had myself. Thanks so much for shooting this!

    I’m just starting in Miniature painting. Starting with one of the Warhammer 40K starter kits that has a bunch of Necrons and few Space Marines. I’m definitely more interested personally in more Alien or Fantasy style miniatures, but this seemed like a good learning point and then can paint the things I really want when I have some practice under my belt. So I can appreciate both of your friends’ perspectives who are also new to this hobby. I appreciate this video very much.

    one of the things that helped myself and my fellow players get over painting minis was when I got myself a 3d printer. I printed a dozen of the same model and I just threw myself into it and tried a bunch of things. Sure, some of the beginning models don't look so well but I wasn't upset because it didn't cost me anything to reprint and try a different technique. All the players at our table spent a few bucks and got the digital models of their player characters and I printed a few copies of them and they were able to print up a couple different versions and they didn't have much trouble since they didn't feel like it would be "ruined" if the paint job didn't come out like they wanted.
    I really enjoyed this because it reminded me of the times my friends and I would just sit around a table, paint, and just hang out.

    Just so you know I’ve been binge watching your videos and you (alongside several other youtubers) have inspired me to grind out 3,000pts of my 5,000pts of Minotaurs Space Marines. It’s been great, they look great, and thank you for the great content!

    At the 19:48 mark he describes exactly how I used to feel in the beginning. It was hard to let that go, and it still is sometimes, but "failing" is a good thing. It lets you know you are still learning new things. And learning something new or improving your skills in a hobby that you love is a great feeling in the end, you just have to put it in a positive perspective. Great video, love your channel man. Cheers.

      It’s a very rewarding hobby. I remember my first model, it was a terrible paint job, but I felt so proud. Each model after that gets a little better and a little better and before you know it you’re pretty good at it.

    About viles and leaving marks, a good sanding stick with a fine grit can leave a very smooth finish that is almost the same as the bare plastic.

    I want more of this. I'm a noob, and I need to get to painting more minis. Watching other noobs do it definitely gives me a bit more confidience to pick it all up and start. Granted I'm not painting armies so I've got different problems, but still getting started is the biggest thing.

  • @LordScimitar

    Great video! As a new painter who has painted less than a dozen minis so far, it was really inspirational!
