Titanicus Test Schemes!

Hi all,

Bit of a tech meltdown this weekend, but I've finally got the video up!

Continuing my AT kick. Let me know what you think and what you'd like to see more of, particularly from the specialist games ranges.

I've also attached the original Legio Krytos guide I did last year.

Have a great week!

Farseer Part 4: Painting Over Transfers

Hey Cultists!

If you have always wanted to try freehand but haven't had the guts, I think you will enjoy this video! Painting over decals is lovely way to begin, and give you confidence. I will do pure freehand videos in the future but i thought this was appropriate for the job. The base and cat will be the final parts from this series coming next week!

Super interested to see what you think,

Andy

Farseer Part 2: CombiningTMM Gold & OSL

Hello all!

Really enjoyed making this one. Very experimental but I lucked out and it worked! Which is lucky as it wouldn't be a great video otherwise.......

Looking forward to your thoughts on this one. I'll create the full colour list for the mini soon, as it will be finished. Very few paints in this one as its just the gold elements.

Episode 6 Recording Tonight

Hi all,

We're managing to stick to that schedule, which means it's recording night for the next episode of Culture of Paint. We wanted to try and new segment out, " Interview", so we're using our very own Matt as a guinea pig. He's got the amazing Compendium project on the go so get read for lots of pics and chat about some of the best painted minis around!

Live at 2000 BST

See you there!

Farseer tutorial coming soon

Hey Cultists!

Just wanted to share with you what I’ve worked on this week. While Henry is doing the Dark Eldar for this weeks tutorial, this is what will be coming next.

I read all your comments and suggestions and chose this for a couple reasons. The main focus of the tutorial will be OSL, but more about creating some atmospheric lighting. I’m trying to create a blue aura coming from the sword, as opposed to a more “in your face” OSL effect. I also played a lot with TM...

Culture of Paint Episode 5: BASE

Hi all,

We'll be recording a new episode tonight. Hoping to stick to our every other tuesday schedule as much as possible. Tonight we'll be chatting about the importance of basing, and some of our favourite elements of it.

Be great to see you there. https://youtu.be/uki8sgPdU5I

Simple Flesh Recipe

Hey all,

This weekend's free Youtube video looks at how to approach a model that is predominantly skin. What a handsome fella.

Henry

Sigvald Part 5: Base

A nice and easy one to round out this series! I hope you have enjoyed them.

So what do you guys want to see next? I need to start painting something for the next series. Do you like seeing the process for entire models? Or just tips on specific areas? At the moment I am feeling like re visiting the Tau and working on some weathering. Let my know anything you would like to see and maybe it will inspire me for upcoming videos.

Cheers!

Andy

Iron Hands

Hi all,

This weekend's free Youtube tutorial is for the Iron Hands legion. Really chuffed with the results on this one. I'll endeavour to have the rest of the heresy legions out for you guys over the next 6 weeks. I'll also be working on a tank for next weeks Patreon video as we've been getting quite a few questions about how to approach painting vehicles.

Don't forget we're streaming the next episode of Culture of Paint tonight at 2000. Have a great weekend.

Henry

Be great to have you in the live audience and get your input.

Cheers, Henry

Sigvald Part 4: Gold

Hope you are having a great weekend Cultists. Here is the gold tutorial for Sigvald. Quite possible the most important video for some of you, so would love to get your feedback on this explanation and format in general. There will be more videos with me actually painting gold, so don't worry if you prefer learning in that format.

I could talk about this forever, so this is me trying to explain everything while remaining concise. Don't forget to check the PDF to follow along and get the ...

Enjoy!

Henry

Sigvald Part 3: Silver

Good Morning Cult!

Today I share with you a short video on painting silver NMM for Sigvald. I was making the tutorial and thought I might as well separate the two colours and get you some content out faster! 

I hope you enjoy it and it contain enough information in there for you. The gold video will have more tricks and tips for NMM in general.I I'll make the PDF as before to go along with both, so when I post the gold video I will share the PDF too.

As reque...

Sigvald Part 2: Painting Cloaks with Airbrush

Happy weekend Cult,

Excited to share with you the video for painting Sigvald cloak. In this video we use very few colours and simple techniques but get a fantastic result. Back to a normal video here as i thought it was more appropriate for this one!

Colours used are:

Citadel Screamer Pink

AK Black Red or Citadel Gal Vorbak would be ok

Vallejo Ivory or any white/off white

As usual looking forward to your thoughts!

P.S. The sound is a little...

Culture of Paint Ep. 3

Hi guys,

We're going to be recording tonight at 2000 GMT. We're still trying to find a regular day that works for us all, so lets try Tuesday!

The main topic for this show is going to be how traditional art and artists influence miniatre art and design.

Be great to see as many of you there as possible, it's really fun reading the chat as we record, and we'll try our best to answer questions as they come up or certainly in the final segment.

See you there!

Sigvald Part 1: Lighting and Face PDF

PDF to use with the video. Make sure you watch the video or this will seem very brief!

Sigvald Part 1: Lighting and the Face

Good Morning Cult!

Hope some of you will be getting you Sigvald Pre orders in the post this weekend.Here is Part 1 for the Sigvald series which I hope is enough to keep you occupied this week. I have tried a different style this time, with still images I am talking over. I chose this as it allowed me to do nice close up shots and give you an accompanying PDF guide. I thought it would be nice to have a video explaining all the theory and why, then you can just refer to the PDF...

Painting Lumineth Battleline

Hello Cult,

Made a video on how I’ll paint my standard troops in comparison to Eltharion. Let me know what you think! I know some of you were interested how I would paint all the rank and file after seeing him. So here you go!

Just working on the Sigvald Video and accompanying PDF. That will be up this weekend too!

Enjoy,

Andy

Eltharion Part 3

Hi Cultists!

So the final part of Eltharion. Lots of little bits in this one, but I hope you enjoy it. I was really happy with how the base made the miniature look. It made me really excited for doing the army.

I will be making a video on how I will paint the rank and files troops. This will be a free one on Youtube. You guys get the much longer videos and see my creative process. Would you like to see any more Lumineth? I will be painting an entire army but...

Sigvald Tutorials Inbound

Hi Cultists!

Happy to finally share with you Sigvald. Tomorrow I will post part 3 of Eltharion but next weekend we will begin the series on this guy.

I’m really pleased with the steps and looking forward to sharing you. Particular the cloak which is just done with the airbrush. This was done purposefully to compliment the brush only tutorial from Eltharion, and the combo on the Lion.

Hope you will enjoy them, and come back tomorrow for Eltharion part 3!
