The Best Paint Set for Warhammer 40k Miniatures (So Far)
It's less clickbait than you might think! This paint set is really a game-changer in that it treats the miniature painter as an intelligent, capable artist able to create with confidence! Even if you aren't confident yet, it's still a great place to start on your painting journey, and can really help you learn the fundamentals of color scheming and paint choice. I'm of course taking a look at Pro Acryl's Rogue Hobbies Signature Series!

Painting Warhammer 40k's Most Underrated Inquisitor to Get My Mojo Back
Переглядів 12921 день тому
I had a great time painting this mini! Felt awesome to get another project finished and fully assembling this depiction of Ordo Xenos Inquisitor Jena Orechiel felt like it lifted a huge weight off my back after I had been staring at it in sub-assembly for almost a year! In this video I recount a bit about how she fits into my personal army and homebrew, and I also lay down a couple tips that ma...

I Hated Power Swords in 40k, So I Tried a New Way to Paint Them
I did this but with Reivers 😅
Reivers are a great choice! The "tacticool" Phobos armor is definitely closer to the original DW vets bodies but I just wanted that classic Aquilla :D
As a tutorial, I sadly found this to be a bit lacking. Showing steps and explaining steps is what makes the major difference, and I felt you did the former without the latter.
I do really like what I see in this paint set! Hopefully they'll make this one wider distribution!
Yea agreed! It took me a long time to finally find it in stock somewhere 😔
@toasthammer , oddly enough they get more stocked in the UK stores, but they manufacture in the US, and most stores have been out in the US longer.🥲
I suppose when talking about what a big win this paint set is, you'd say it's a big double-hue... 🎉
🥁
Yes officer this one right here
Question: For the gun chassis part, it seems like you're supposed to assemble superficial parts of the chassis differently depending on if it's an energy-based weapon or not (for example, the side and interior is different for the rapid fire battle canon). Do people just pick one and not worry that it's not quite correct for the other options?
Good question! I have seen people magnetize all of those options before, but I didn't bother because it didn't seem worth it, so I tried to just pick the options that looked the most generic since I really think even other Knight players will like 99% not notice at all.
@@toasthammer Thanks! I think I'll glue the ammo bit on very lightly so I can magnetize it in the future if I choose to do so. I'm configuring it as Canis Rex at first, and the las impulsor ammo bit still looks good for the other guns imho.
Love the flow of the hair and the cape. Amazing work
@@BeastnBrushes Thank you! But most of the credit goes to ArtelW Miniatures :D
Personally I do the Miniac thing of painting the eyes an off white color with an iris, no pupil
Oh I may have misspoken by saying pupil instead of iris! I only put one mark into the eye, which at this scale would almost certainly be an iris.
awesome glad you finished your inquisitor.
Thanks! :D
a guide without any drilling ? Love it !
Y'know I didn't even consider that 😅 but it's true! Glad it was helpful :D
So the Black Legion contrast is pretty much a one coat black, unlike Black Templar which does more of the dark shadows/lighter highlights effect contrast paints popularized. Would definitely try some of the first gen contrasts or similar products like Xpress color which aren't as pigment saturated
Oh dang ! I had no idea hahaha shows how green I am with contrast paints 😅 will definitely try to re-test this with a more transparent paint at some point!!
My favorite fanart of electro-priest is, "Electro-priestess by Nictanova ". Because ,in my mind, rapiers are the perfect weapon for electro-priests, giving directionality to their electrical powers
Woah I hadn't seen that piece before it's super cool!!
Having fully switched to 30k mechanicum I might retry 40k admech now.
Yea if you already have the army I'd definitely recommend it!
Ah yes, the sweet sounds of Build 6
Hey man, found your channel doing a search for Admech content, you've got some good stuff here. I have a rather big, possibly simple question for you! Im way more of a hobbyist than a gamer and more into 30K than 40K but with the new 30K Mechanicum box coming at some point soon im very tempted to dive into this army. My main problem is outside of the couple of wiki pages im at a loss finding good content for this army. Specifically looking for, if any, colour plates/lore on different factions. When i play its normally Titanicus and have a home brew legio so kinda moving towards a home brew faction and just looking at colour plates for inspiration/lore helps the creative juices start moving. Anyway man enjoy the content and your video on the Kataphron has pushed me into a buyung mode! Cheers
Hmmm I'm going to guess you mean like a color scheme for your army? The rule of thumb I use is a split of roughly 70-75% primary color, 20% secondary color, and 5-10% of a accent color. Black and white plus any bold color works really well (see many official GW schemes) but if you want to go fully homebrew I recommend checking out something like the site below for inspiration. If you want to be lore accurate most forge worlds have some amount of red in them, but not all of them do! coolors.co/palettes/trending
And if you want good book recommendations Mechanicum is great if you're into 30k, but if you've already read that then the Forges of Mars trilogy is a really solid 40k series as well!
the kitbashes keep getting better!
Hehe thank you!!
happy that you are doing well lately, I am happy you built another cool GSC mini
Thank you! Yes I am doing well :D
Ambitious project. I'd like it better with less cloth but it's still a cool model. I'm going to use one of the KDM masks on a future conversion too. Great idea. A tip: Silicone-coated baking parchment as your working surface would save you a lot of hassle here. Less water, you can work shapes and tears in the GS out on an even surface and use it to transfer your work onto the miniature later.
Ooh that's a great tip I'll need to grab some of that never tried it before!
Cool stuff! Not a native speaker, but isn’t it called a pin vice? It’s a vice for pins after all.
Well if you want to get technical it's a "pen drill" 😂 but its all semantics in the end
@@toasthammer The relative importance of semantics aside, you’re right. A pin vice isn’t meant or well suited for drilling, as it has no rotating palm support. Even though it’s hard to blame anyone for confusing the two almost identical designs.
My first kit bash was turning the orks from my second edition starter box into trophies and casualties for my dark angels. And a month later I was already putting a biker marine‘s legs and a converted torso of a tactical marine with a scratch built obsidian bladed power whip on a lizardmen raptor to create the general for my freshly invented DA successor legion. Ever since then kit bashing has been the most creatively fulfilling and only constant part of the hobby for me.
Hell yea!
A bit rougher than my perfectionism would allow me, but the overall result is right up my alley. (Not that much darker) Mechanicum for the win! We’re not hereteks, we’re just misunderstood.
Subscribed btw.
A wise man once told me "don't let perfection get in the way of progress!" I'm still pretty happy with the result for my current skill level :) but also yea she's just a straight up heretek if you saw the previous video hahaha
Really cool, and fits with the Warpshadow Junestealer theme of travelling cultists 👏👏👏
Oooh what's Junestealer?? I didn't realize there was a larger thing going on :D
@@toasthammer Junestealer has been going on for 4 years now, basically its like Orktober and Nidvember (Tyranid November) The Warpshadow account on Instagram creates a theme each year, which people take part in
Honestly loved the video, amazing concept. I was surprised to see how small of a channel you are so I’m just making sure to like, comment, and subscribe to help you with that algorithm 👍
Thank you so much I really appreciate it!
Great video! I'll use it as a tutorial to magnetize my first Knight.
Thanks and good luck!
Great Mad Max vibes.
Thank you!
Merci pour la vidéo
you have a pleasing face and voice!
Thank you! That's so kind ☺
this is awesome bud.
Thanks, glad you like it!!
Found it very useful, I think I don't want to do it anymore, lol. I'm not competitive and I think I'd rather just have the pose and weapon type locked in for a solid and sturdy finish.
Hahaha thats fair! Magnetizing isn't for everyone :)
Chaos Daemons Tzeentch is best
Definitely the best daemons to kitbash!
From your description, im going to guess the AoS kit you mentioned is the celestial hurincanum. Probably.
Yep! Amazing amount of bits in that kit.
Lmaooooo the whole video in the back of my head I was thinking these models were sort of Dune vibes. Laughed out loud later when the song started playing during the final reveal
LMAO glad you caught it ;)
Loved the intro
Great minis, if you want a chalange i recomend that you try making emperors children using the zorn pallete.
Oh man that sounds super tough! but potentially a lot of fun, I'll have to level up my color mixing skills first 😄
For next time, do yourself a favour and give your mini an all over coat of an undershade colour over your white prime/zenithal, leave it to stain that primer and then wipe it all away with a dry sponge like you might with streaking grime etc. Then you'll have a thin oily base that thicker paint will adhere to, then you can basically just wet blend on top. Remember thick paints sticks to thin, and vice versa. Edit: Also, check out the oilfather, James Wappel
That's a great tip! I'll have to try that out next time I do something like this thank you :D
oil painting challenge is great one.
Yea it was fun! Thanks :D
Great video! I went a little crazy magnetizing mine, and I have swappable head, masks, shield, legs, and missile launcher face plates in addition to everything here. I don't recommend doing the head (hard to get it to fit right again without rubbing against the body), but swappable masks are awesome.
Yea you can definitely go way crazier with it haha I just wanted all of the gameplay options to be available basically.
Great dudes you've done the Watch proud but that's not the chapter symbol for the Minotaurs. They have a completely different symbol. For anyone who doesn't know Deathwatch Vets are same size as the new MK3-MK6 stuff from Horus Heresy so they're not all that smaller than primaris. Said kit is amazing I can forgive the kit missing one or two options when it gives you Two stormshields, two heavy thunder hammers and a plethora of other gear. It's honestly crazy what u get in it.
Huh weird! Looking up the Minotaurs I see that symbol all over the place 🤔 wonder if it was retconned or something Thank you though I'm glad you liked the models! And yes the DW Vets box is absolutely amazing in terms of the variety of wargear and bits you get :D
Dont base them keep them black or find clear bases goes better with mats
Basing depends on where you want your dudes to fight... You taking it to the enemy? I'd go red/orange Martian dust or blue/purple swamp. You clearing a place out? I like ship decking or urban rubble.
Totally! I think one of the reasons I haven't decided is because I don't have a strong narrative tie for them yet.
Any Deathwatch gets a like and sub from me!
Thank you very much! The Ordo Xenos runs strong in these parts
I really enjoyed this video. Congratulations Mate.
Thank you!!
maybe like a destroyed city. some remains of the buildings, dust, human remains, something like that could be cool. maybe in a light-greyish color
Always love a blasted out urban landscape 😎
Stumbled onto your channel, first video I've seen. The bash looks great! And is this the music from The Sims 2 I hear?
Thank you so much! And I believe this is OG Sims music 😎
Looks great! What was the size of the chain you used?
Thanks! According to the package it's a 1mm chain
@@toasthammer Fantastic!
this is awesome bud
Thanks!
martian dust red/orange pigment base would look cool
True! Would definitely provide some good contrast
Very nice
Thank you :D
Great guide for magnetising these! Saved me a lot of time working out how to do mine so thank you :) just one comment though, are you sure the magnet at 6:24 is a 2x2? I has to use a 1x1 because that part of the gun is so tiny - still worked perfectly though!
Yep its definitely a tiny part, the 2x2 just barely fit in for me!
Could you link to an image of the painting you mentioned? I cant find it online
Yep! Here you go, it's called "The Lady and the Knight" www.artstation.com/artwork/a5o10

That lady looks like one of John Blanche‘s sketches. I love it.
