    I can't unsee Ghazkull rocking a quad car cigarette lighter. Maybe I'm just old because I doubt many will know what I'm referring to. Cool model and very informative as always.

  • @lizzylies5844
    @lizzylies5844 Před rokem +107

    Ghazkull is genuinely one of the coolest Ork models out there, and the amount of painting possibilities you can do with him is honestly astonishing. Saw a few Ghazkulls online that have genuinely blown me away!

  • @thecrabmaestro564
    @thecrabmaestro564 Před rokem +111

    I do think the effect on the barrels turned out alright! However it feels less like a muzzle flash and more like the glow of the hot barrel to me. You could accentuate that by adding the effect over the first half of the barrels too!

    • @nobodyimportant5417
      @nobodyimportant5417 Před rokem +5

      Spot on. Ghaz needs a barrel change!

    • @karstedt9987

      Same, go with the orange red overheated barrel effect... which would be a nice part of a video in of itself.

    • @nak3dxsnake
      @nak3dxsnake Před rokem +1

      Agreed. It reads very well at a glance though.

    • @yamahkogribbis6212
      @yamahkogribbis6212 Před rokem +1

      I thought he'd be highlighting all over with the yellows and reds of the flashing weapons. Seems more like a warm glow as current, as the op said.

    • @Scrombo2

    I guess the choco taco thing is a big deal because you have to buy it from a scalper who's been stockpiling them in their freezer. So it's gonna be expensive and you really only have a short amount of time left in which you can buy one and still expect it to not have gone bad.

    As someone who is just getting into miniature painting thanks to Star Wars Legions (tried to stay away from Warhammer through my youth, but we all know that's where this is heading); I love your videos. Always informative, fun and the outcome is always incredible. Your enjoyment of this is evident, especially in this video, and its very contagious. It always makes me look forward to sitting down and try what I've been learning.

    Just painted my first GW model in months after painting mainly bust and smaller company minis. This look is what I was going for but didn't quite get there. But I'll be using this video for reference in future

  • @SweenyMarc
    @SweenyMarc Před rokem

    The idea of getting good results and enjoying your painting by relaxing more is so true. Fussing about getting every last detail done "the right way" is a trap for a lot of us.
    The muzzle flash doesn't look bad either, but some smoke and/or flames from the barrels would really sell the idea they're churning out hot death. I know there's a few 3rd party companies that sell physical muzzle flashes for smaller stuff like bolters but I wouldn't be surprised if there's bigger ones suitable for artillery etc that would work on Ghazkull.

  • @sultanbaba1230
    @sultanbaba1230 Před rokem +10

    Could you do infinity and conquest miniature painting videos? Both games deserve more exposure on youtube, their models are gorgeous and you are insane at painting, perfect match :D. Love your content keep it up!😊

  • @Rhaenday

    Really liked this approach and the mindset behind it! Made me want to paint something this way just to try it out and see the result!
    Would love to see you show it off again on something with more curves and not as commonly seen looking as roughed up.

    Seeing the muzzles of the gun face on, they look like targets. Seeing them at an angle when you look at the front of the model the look amazing. Nice one.

  • @user-ne4ld3jp6i
    @user-ne4ld3jp6i Před rokem

    I've tried this paint style on my own and I really like the way it makes my minis look. Just like Brent from Goobertown says, "paint bravely." I heard that and just decided to hack and slash, loved the results and have been working on refining it.

  • @mau48310
    @mau48310 Před rokem +1

    This is exactly the kind of approach I use in digital painting I don't know why I didn't think of it before, actual lighting base colors for shadows instead of pure white or black for shading and highlights

  • @ElNick09
    @ElNick09 Před rokem

    Great model!. Also,the muzzle flair effect is taking me back to an old pickup truck where, as a bored, curious child I learned what a 'cigarette lighter' is.

  • @mycommentpwnz
    @mycommentpwnz Před 9 měsíci

    I initially struggled picturing light/shade. Then, however, I stopped thinking it as "light," and "shadow," and began thinking of it more akin to fluid dynamics.
    This helped me, perhaps it will help someone else.

  • @lescaribous
    @lescaribous Před rokem +1

    I like the way you speak about painting. The Exact same thing happened more than 100 years ago with modern vs classic painters. It's cool to see the same story happen on the miniature painting. Maybe that in 10 years we will let our miniatures in abbadon black to mimic Pierre Soulages paints!

  • @retlaw83
    @retlaw83 Před rokem

    I'm no professional level painter, but what I do is put down my base color, then highlight with a much brighter color. Then I tie it together by putting a layer of contrast paint over it.
    Specifically for my current 40k color scheme, I basecoat purple, put a medium red over it, highlight raised edges with a red bordering on orange, then hit it with a dark red contrast paint.

  • @foulmoodcentral2830
    @foulmoodcentral2830 Před rokem

    For the barrels, and I can only recommend it because i've seen it done by people who love to go all out on overheated looking metallics, is to try a thin layer of purple and blue with some silver, to give it that strange transition that heat produces over metal (maybe that's more a flamethrower thing? I dunno..) ...other then that, I can say that this style is just the sort of crisp and in your face that I can really appreciate for a display model. will definitely try those brush scratchings.

    @wickedgaming9632 Před rokem

    I think it's sweet, especially the fact that it's"firing" the one thing you may want to try next time is to go a little ways down the barrel with the bright colors like it's really heated up.

  • @Grumplestitskin
    @Grumplestitskin Před rokem

    So many videos and channels focusing on the smoothest and creamiest of blending techniques, or how to slop shit on to get ‘em table ready.
    Subscribed because of this video. Glad to see more varied techniques on a mini video instead of wading through fine art and scale modeling videos to get other than eavy metal style.
    Love it

  • @littlemousestudio5890

    I like the idea on the barrels, buuuuuuut, I always imagine that multi barrelled weapons fire in sequence, with your AMAZEBALLS skill, you could darken different barrels slightly to give the impression of the barrel being that second or two cooler than the next... but its still bloody superb work as ever... and yes, I will be trying to win this at WHFest

    Thanks for reminding us that there are many valid ways to paint and having fun is important part. I've been experimenting with a variation of this style but creating textures using over thinned paint and a big brush ( like a 6-8). The concept to have fun and pushing color combining base coating layering and weathering steps together and then detail and clean up steps together.

    @MaskedRiderChris Před rokem

    Rough, weathered, and textured is my favorite way of doing things most of the time, and this was a fun video to watch and get some more insight as to what I may be missing whenever I attempt to lay paint to mini. Turns out I miss lots of things, but that's what videos like these are for! Edge highlighting & scratches are the bane of my existence because no matter how much I try thinning or not thinning my paint, half the time I get big ugly splodges that make me frown.
