  • My friend Cory asked that I restore his warhammer 40k Dark Angel Captain.
    This primaris model means a lot to him so I couldnt refuse painting him to his full glory.
    Astartes, Necrons, Eldar, Chaos Space Marines, Age of Sigmar, Tau, Ork. Ill restore pretty much anything.

    This reminds me of a 4chan post, a guard player and his friend who played Dark Angels were one hell of a duo. Even when his friend was dying of cancer he proceed to give his guardsman friend his models before he passed, and up to the day he wrote the post he played a portion of his friends Dark Angels as a support and the stand in for his friend always had good rolls😢

      @djnausea i personally do not use IPA as my primer is lacquer based instead of acrylic. Theoretically i could soak in IPA as that would remove all the acrylic layers, but purple power has worked for me.
      Extra soaking time is okay if i find some paint still sticks after a good scrub.

    You can't start to imagine how much that resonates with me. Although I am, and always was, a CSM player, I was painting a friend's Dark Angels space marines, when my mum was in the ICU battling with cancer complications. She did not make it in the end, but in the haze of the next few days, I still recall painting miniatures to overcome my grief. The amount of psychotherapy painting provides, the seer focus and blocking everything outside for a few minutes or hours at end, cannot be explained.

    I absolutely love your videos. Your painting skills are second to none. I’m new to Warhammer. I bought a bunch of models a couple months ago and am still trying to find the time to complete the laborious (but enjoyable) task of building the models in a perfectionist manner by removing mold lines, sanding, kit bashing and painting. I take a lot of care and time to prep and build the models so that they are flawless. Then comes the painting and Am just not very happy with the results. I’m just not a good enough painter yet. I have this one model in particular that I absolutely love. It’s the Blood Angels terminator librarian turned Deathwatch. If you would paint that for me so I don’t ruin it, I’d cherish it forever! Love the series, keep up the good work!
