- It might sound almost trite, but a hobby ought to be something one finds relaxing or satisfying in some way. With that in mind, I thought it was about time I had some fun!
You can pick up the STL for Marshal Wilhelm here: www.cgtrader.com/3d-print-mod...
There's also The Makers Cult Patreon to get in ahead of the curve and pick up some monthly packs at a massive discount: / themakerscult
This dude was painted on an Elegoo Mars 2 Pro at 30 microns (or 0.03mm layer height!) and looks indistinguishable from any other resin figure once he's on the table.

For the love of god man, ONLY paint stuff you find fun! Don’t burn yourself out. The bulk of us just watch you for the basic techniques and to see how you break it all down in a simple step by step method. We don’t care that much about the models. So if you’re having fun, then so are we! Take care, cheers 🍻
I second this motion!
I don't know, I have a lot of numbers that suggest people do care about the models at least a little! ;D But point taken, and much appreciated. Cheers! 🍻
Count me in Captain!
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio I have heard other CZcamsrs say that getting a Space Marine in the thumbnail boosts viewer count so I can definitely believe that. We live in the long shadow of the Primarchs, I guess 😂
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio Are you chasing views/profits, or are you just doing this because you want to, and we happen to enjoy it? I think that's something that lots of hobby youtubers need to ask themselves. Don't chase the views unless they're paying your bills man. Have fun and you'll attract people who love your vibe.
Right now I work 7 days a week at 2 different jobs. Don't worry about us that much. Don't burn yourself out. I don't have time to watch 4 videos a week..slow it down a bit and keep that mental state positive. oh and he looks amazing well done!
I think I speak for many when I say I watch all your videos no matter what they are about. Your content is that good. Please do what you find fun I'll watch it all the same ♥️♥️♥️
I'll have a shot at mixing things up a little, and circulating in something essentially random off the shelf now and again to keep myself fresh.
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio then I will be a happy subscriber
Dear and most esteemed Sir! Please go on painting - paint for you, for your joy. I guess there is a fellowship greatly enjoying your vids. So please, don't burn yourself out. Whatever you paint - it is fun to watch!
I think we mentioned this before. Yes, absolutely, you paint what you want, it's your site. It's a pleasure to watch an artist in action, whatever the subject being painted. Also the techniques used are the same whatever the subject painted. More power to your painting arm 👍☺
All the best matey 😊
is up to me, the viewer, to apply what I see on your videos (and miniatures) to my miniatures, not viceversa.
From Ultramarines with Contrast paints to a 3d printed soldier of a niche skirmisher painted with the most obscure set of airbrushes, I'm here to see, learn and have fun.
And I'm here to stay, whaetever you publish 1 video a day, a week or a month.
Take your break or whatever you need. This is one of my favorite channels and it's not like I don't have a huge backlog of your videos to watch (or use as reference). Seriously, I love your channel, and you're one of the friendliest youtubers in this hobby. And also you have an amazing voice that rivals Uncle Atom's. Rest, take a break, whatever you want -- you've earned it!
This would be great for Silver Bayonet! And I say paint whatever makes you happy, it's better for you and we get more interesting figures 😊
As chance would have it, I've actually got some French infantry on the painting desk now for Silver Bayonet. 🤣 The Perry plastics ought to give me plenty of useful figures, including officer and such. I'll just need to figure out how to get an occultist or similar in there to round out the weird choices!
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio you already know where to look *cough* Anvil’s October release *cough* 😆
I agree with all the comments of your followers, some great ones .you have probably saved me 3 years of trying to paint to a standard i like .you have made me enjoy painting miniatures so keep it up but like you say just enjoy yourself
Everyone really loves and appreciates the tutorials you do, but they are right. Only if you are having fun. I flit now and then to different genres to keep the hobby fresh and exciting. You inspire lots of people and we would be heartbroken if you stopped. So, take a step back, deep breath and keep doing the things you want to at your own pace. Most importantly, keep having fun!! The hobby painting world would be a sorry place without you. Take care. Kindest regards Ian.
I think what we as creators forget, is that it’s not just the painting. It’s also the editing afterwards and that adds time and to be honest its not much fun. I try to put out 1 video a week and sometimes don’t achieve that. You must take time for your own enjoyment and hobby stuff, build that into you schedule. I love seeing everything you paint. Great paint job on the figure.
Editing is almost literally half the battle! 😭
Sorry to hear about your burnout. I'd be happy to listen to you talk about historical units/battles, or even product reviews, or vlog style videos about thrift shopping, used minis, etc. Just keep the channel going!
After the intro: Please, do never post videos just because you feel an obligation to do it. You have the best painting channel on this YT because your videos are about the fun and not about production quotas. :-)
If you want to do some more relaxed videos, I'd love to see some more opinion vlogs/informational videos like your solo wargaming one a while back. Seeing your imperial guard army would also be pretty sweet, I know you've been collecting those for a long time. Maybe some other lower effort Sludge conversions could be nice, too?
Really, though, happy to see you doing your own more relaxed projects.
You were the first CZcams painter I watched when I started back in the hobby over a year ago. I learned a whole lot of stuff from you mate. Please take care of yourself and do what is best for you.
Really glad to hear it, bud. Hope you're still having fun with it, too! :D
Got the new kill team and found my old Death Corps of Kreig Commissar this tutorial will be a big help painting him
What a great tutorial! I can understand burnout on a hobby. Several years ago I was absolutely insistent on researching anything before building or painting. and sometimes it just lost the fun of modeling. So I went from historical modeling to Sci-fi and I really enjoy it. I am currently painting up some 10mm tanks in whatever color I want and I am have a lot of fun doing this. I have also been inspired by ANYTHING you paint and this helps me to go back to the bench and try something new. Thanks for sharing this and take your time making a tutorial. Thanks for sharing this.
Always really glad to hear from you, John. It's encouraging to hear sometimes that even the simple moments of, "I could do with some variety!" are mirrored by others, too!
its called HOBBY for a reason! Ifit ain't fun it ain't worth doing! We watch every one of your videos for you, as well as the minis. So any content is good content! keep up the great work :)
Nice work. Always good to walk away if your not enjoying yourself. It's why my idea of being a commission painter last 1 job
Love your work, please take your time and think about making Friday a fun video day. I think we all would enjoy that.
I had considered buying a lot of the STLs from these guys, now I am almost assuredly doing it. Decades ago, I read a French SF novel where aliens had gotten hold of Napoleon’s DNA along with that of his marshals. They, of course, were cloned multiple times and conquered the galaxy!
Ha! Now that's a thought... I'll have to go looking for that one, sounds like fun!
17:59 *drifter noise intensifies*
Holy crap the detail on this mini looks like a render, thats really crisp.
Loved this one. Seriously, I've been amazed by your output lately. I mean, I love getting more videos, but don't think you need to do four a week. Just do the stuff you enjoy.
I enjoy most of it! I could just do with slowing down a little, I think. 😅 I'm sure you appreciate with your blog how much work goes into the few minutes someone actually sees!
Great model and great paint scheme. Will have to use the color scheme for some Death Korps!
Thank you , lurvly mini and a smashing paint job ,
Jesus you paint scheme and quality of you painting is miles ahead of mine for the marshal
It might be I've had a bit of practice, mind you! 😅
Stunning figure as always, yes I agree only do what you are happy doing, brilliant tutorial as always.
This was great! Especially appreciated the tips on highlighting equalities and frogging - that had been a mystery to me for a long time
That should read highlighting eppaulettes lol
I'm sorry to hear you've been feeling burnt out. I heartily encourage you to take any time you need. Many of us really enjoy your work, but we don't want you to work yourself into a funk. These CZcams algorithms pay no heed to the humans who put the work in. I hope you can get some wind back in your sails with a break! Lovely work as always. :)
Brilliant stuff bud 😁 again the makers cult really are amazing set of lads they also work with other creators helps everyone get exposure. They really do have some of the coolest models around IMO. Your job on this also is brilliant! I think this dude is part of their welcome pack if I remember right. Also always do what you enjoy. I do this as well sometimes half way though painting something I just don't "feel" it. It's better to do something else, try something different or step away for a bit. This is why I also mix my models up plus do some busts every couple of months. Plus busts really help big time with mixing it up and trying technical stuff out since you have a bigger work area on a model it is easier to even doing wet blending 🙂
Looks great, and yes only paint fun stuff!
I absolutely enjoy the way you do the highlighting on the folds of clothes. A joy to see you have fun for yourself. That's the most important!
I love the colour of that coat, I think I might use it for my Steel Legion repaint.
Azure is such a nice blue. It also covers really well over most colours, which is great for such a light shade.
I think watching you paint stuff that you enjoy is much more enjoyable. Take a step back and enjoy the hobby. It's a hobby after all!
Lovely mini and lovely scheme!
I've enjoyed re-watching your videos several times and my miniature painting has improved greatly thanks to your techniques. Take your time and upload your videos only as long as it is enjoyable and convenient for you. THANKS !
This is a stunning model. When I get a printer I'll be having him
Thank you for doing this I get so much enjoyment out of your videos again thank you
Looks good for the Silver Bayonet
I dont paint for now but your videos not only give great paint schemes but also are really enjoyable to watch. Its really obvious when you are having fun while painting and that alone is really amusing.
Seriously paint whatever is fun for you
Wow, great result here !
Avoid burn out, paint what's fun to you, it transpires through the video when you enjoy yourself !
Thank you Mister Sonic !
I very much enjoy your videos. They are very helpful, and the techniques are very helpful.
Dude, you’ve got to love what you do, don’t force yourself into painting stuff you don’t get joy out of just for us.
I’d watch you paint virtually anything anyway, and there’s always something I take away from your videos. Keep doing what you want to do.
Wow, that's a crisp print job. Love the concept for the paint job, too. Great video!
Love the Dark Tone mix idea. Gotta try that on some of my Frostgrave minis.
The mix works really well to soften the overall effect without losing the shading in the recesses; it's GREAT for shading without seriously darkening your colours, I can't recommend experimenting with the mixing medium enough.
That looks awesome mate great job 🥃🥃👍🏻
You do what you need to do and enjoy. That's the most important thing.
Also this dude looks cool and bright.
Sweet figure and great paint job.
Thank you kindly!
Exactly, when you have more fun it also makes the video more enjoyable. I am here to stay even if there are less or less frequent video’s. Take care and thank you again for all video’s so far and the ones to come ;)
Ayyy! Painting the best warhammer models again AND doing it for your own enjoyment!
"Tiny wee" Scottish parents? You'll be saying "Totty" shortly :) Love your videos. Can't use washes though, every time I use them everything looks "clarty"!
Scottish pals. ;D
Великолепный контент по покраске миниатюр от различных систем. Прекрасная подача. Спасибо вам!
Надеюсь, Google поможет мне правильно сказать спасибо. :D
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio I understand English language very well, but my lettering is bad)
Ur videos are so amazing. And ur answer on my commentary, ur awesome man) Google is good in translation)
Burnout is real! I would definitely rather you do what you feel is fun. This is the same thing all painters go through I think. I'm recovering from burnout with similar models to Marshal Wilhelm, I'm doing Death Korps of Krieg :)
Watched lots of your videos and it was time to write something. Your awsome and make high quality and good videos. Also you got a great voice for em. Keep up :)
I'm always impressed by your art. Great job!
I love this miniature line and will absolutely get it when I'll have a 3d printer
Great video as always!
This is great! I say, always paint what you think is fun. I think a lot of your viewers are here for your personality, i paint while i watch your videos, rarely painting the same thing as you.
Just goes to show if you use the correct high light colours on the base paints you get a marvellous looking figure.it really shows you enjoyed painting this fellow.Keep the Fsith and just 😉
That came out beautifully!
I think this is one of your best paint jobs yet! I hope you only ever paint stuff that makes you happy. Cheers!
That looks bloody brilliant mate. Paint what you want. I’m sure most of us will watch regardless.
Lovely paint job, it always shows when you paint something you want too rather than have too. Keep up the great work.
Yes!!! I love these Patreon paint videos! (Especially when I have these models!😉)
Would love more TMC, Station forge, etc.
Great work, and awesome videos!
There's a lot of really amazing Patreon-backed material out there. Ordinarily I try to make sure that I'm painting stuff which folks would be able to relatively easily get their hands on, which isn't always true with some of the 3D printing things available, but now and then it can't hurt to do something neat for its own sake.
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio funny enough, I found you because of patreon, from Anvil. Was considering their models, and scrolling their page your video was there. Been following you since!
That is so much better than "krieg" style paint jobs
Painting so many figures for "krieg" army is almost mind boggling , but I'd love it
Sad your at burn-out , but i know the feeling
I did cadians in a urban cammo , my army is always checked out ..
Saddly it's 15 years old and only 100
phenomenal work as usual!
I feel ya. I’ve taken like a month break from painting, still have a few things on the desk that need finished but no real hurry. Looking forward to getting it all done here soon though.
Can't rush the urge that isn't there, I find. Better to let it lie a while and come back to something when you miss it rather than force it.
This was awesome man and please paint what you enjoy. We learn watching you paint regardless of what you paint becaause you are brilliant; I want this channel to be here when I need it. lol
I want to echo some of the other sentiments in the comments: I'm here to watch how you paint things, and especially things you want to paint!
Very nice
Amazing model, mate. Four vids a week is too much. Even those who do one a week - all of them have posted they are burning out. And it is always because the hobby they love has turned into a monetized J.O.B. Do what you love to do and a whole lot less of what you feel you 'have' to do. We just love seeing whatever you post. 😊
I think the satin shine looks better for the 19th century style boiled leather helmet rather than the matt finish. Lovely paint job though 👍
Paint fun stuff quirky things the semple was amazing so is this guy !
Don't burn yourself out!
Looking good mate. Nice to see some bright colours now and again. Have you seen the waterloo stuff from Warlord Games?
Just seen it go up on their Twitter. Now THAT's tasty!
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio Just a little bit. Things are a bit hectic my end at the moment but once things are settled down I feel a mighty need for some red coats. Will most likely badger Kyrie at the same time about them.
@@angrypantz87 Kryie will play the dirty frogs, you know she's down for that.
Man I wish I had a 3d printer for one of these. Too bad they wont let people make and sell these stls.
I'm sure that you've had ideas for large projects over the years that you'd like to "eventually" do (I can scarcely keep track of all of mine), but never found the time or energy or resources to do them, or you felt it would keep you for making these videos as regularly as you'd like. An army, or a colossal monster, a warship, something of that nature. You could do that. Move the camera off to the side so we can still tune in, talk as much as you feel you need to about whatever comes to mind, minimize the editing as best you can, maybe livestream it if you think that would work better. Try it for a week or 2, or a month even, then go back to your regular format. If it doesn't work for you, quit. If it does work out, your collection may have a new centerpiece. Just a thought.
Can you buy these valour Joel’s models already printed? Or do you have to print them yourself
He looks more Franco-Prussian to me......
I'll get my coat!
He man really like the content but please don't push yourself to do more then u can handle. If u find that your are having the drive to not paint like you mentioned it can only create resentment. And if I may be so bold to say "paint what you find fun and to hell with the rest."
You get a thumbs up because this came out awesome, but as a loyal viewer and agrax aficionado this made me sad.
Gotta use the right tool for the job, and sometimes - shocking as it is to me, as well - it's not Agrax Earthshade!
I love this miniature line and will absolutely get it when I'll have a 3d printer
Great video as always!
