Ever since they appeared on the cover of the first issue of White Dwarf I ever bought back May 2003 I've been meaning to paint them up..... That was nearly 15 years ago haha
I'd like to see the Warhammer Underworlds Shadespire khorne warband. I think they would be a great way to show how to paint different skin tones and scars.
Thank you very much for this. I got my Seraphon army and was very nervous to start. I've only painted 4 models previously, and was a bit nervous to mess up a new army. Thanks for the video man
QUESTION!? Some portrait painters use green as an undertone to painting skin/flesh , and the results are amazing, now could you apply this concept to miniature painting, and how does it work?, what’s the magic behind using green undertone?. I would love it if you could make a video about this. Also as a suggestion, you could make a series of videos regarding painting different flesh tones from Vampire pale to exotic purple skin.I’m really enjoying your tutorials, and I can’t wait to see the Slaanesh bases from the bases tutorial.
Probably it's based on the studies painters did in the years. There's an interesting study of dividing the face in 3 zones: yellow for the higher part, red for the middle part (nose and cheek bones) and green for the lower part
I really like what you did here. I personally think for my Saurus I am going to Paint them slightly darker Like WHtv did. Idk why but I just dont really think that saurus look all that menacing when they are brightly colored. Edit:Maybe Im just crazy...
I personally prefer darker colours for almost all my models than most painters seem to. Which is fine by me. Nuln oil is my favourite thing. You can use the same colours as everyone else, then paint the whole thing with nuln oil and it covers up little mistakes and makes it darker too. Only for mediocre painters, but my technique of oil on everything really works for me lol.
What a great video, very clear and articulate. The production values are great too. I’m curious about shading gold; I’ve seen others use Seraphim Sepia as a shade, was there a specific reason you went with Agrax Earthshade in this instance?
Gold is one of those colours which can be heavily influenced by what you shade it with. Seraphim Sepia will shade without effecting the gold too much whereas Agrax Earthshade will create a stronger contrast between the recesses and the surfaces to give a more burnished gold appearance.
Does the paint always have to be watered down? I’ve never used that technique before and although I love the wash to create depth to the scales I’ve never watered down my paint other than in using washes. I’ve never lost detail because of paint thickness. Doing multiple coats just seems like a waste when you can do one strong coat that doesn’t effect texture detail.
Thanks for a great tutorial, just starting out and your post has really given me a great idea of how to get under way. Just noticed on the comments you say you use a combination of grey and black primers, as in a mix or do you mean just a straight grey primer for this model? Cheers.
The only down side to those models are the mounts claws.. Surely they could of taken inspiration from Velociraptors in Jurassic Park because they're awful. Excellent job on the video bub.
The Saurus miniatures look quite clunky and old fashioned compared to some of the newer releases. Are these new ones or are they just old Lizardmen miniatures? They look like they're from a different generation. Sauri should be broad and mean, as they are in lore. Your painting is exquisite though. :)
I really struggle with painting the feet and stomach on these guys. I either use too much wash and or struggle with the highlights. I think I will just start dry brushing those sections and wet layering the other sections
With the base paints you can afford to water them down a little more as the pigment levels are still pretty high. A general rule of thumb is, the more thin layers you apply the better the finished coverage.
Such a good tutorial, thank you!
You're very much welcome! Thank you for your support 😊
Just about to get into the hobby, painting seems a little scary. Watching this fills me with confidence, though. Thanks!
These sorts of videos made a lot of difference for me. Actually seeing it happen in front of you helps so much!
Don't be scared! Once you break it down its really all about applying layers in the correct order :)
I like the set up for showing the paint mixing! Very cool. Great video as always!
I love your painting videos!! For someone who is very new and still pretty bad at painting the models these tutorials really help me out!! Love them!!
About god damn time you gave the great dinos some lovin. Please continue doing so.
Ever since they appeared on the cover of the first issue of White Dwarf I ever bought back May 2003 I've been meaning to paint them up..... That was nearly 15 years ago haha
I really like the format of this video. Adding in the thinning process at the beginning was a great addition. Thanks for sharing!
Still watching this video in 2021! Still rocking the Seraphons, many thanks and hoping you will do some more Seraphon painting guides!:)
Would love video on how to paint the carnosaur as it comes in the start collecting box.
One of the best seraphon painting tutorial out thr. Can you please do the old one on carnosaur next?
I'd like to see the Warhammer Underworlds Shadespire khorne warband. I think they would be a great way to show how to paint different skin tones and scars.
Just got a massive army of Lizardmen, sorry-Seraphon, yesterday and watching this makes me more excited to paint them.
Thank you very much for this. I got my Seraphon army and was very nervous to start. I've only painted 4 models previously, and was a bit nervous to mess up a new army. Thanks for the video man
Great guide We need more seraphon painting guides theirs very little on the whole of you tube
Huge help, love it, forgot to explain the spines on the Saurus back , could you do a carnosaur?
These are beautiful, I learned a lot. Thanks!
Hello !
What a quick, simple and easy to apply tutorial!
I love it, thanks a lot !
Keep on going ! :)
Just getting into the hobby and this has filled me with so much hope that my models won’t look awful 😂
great skills , very detail paint explained you got there and many thanks for all your videos.
Because the daughters of kaihne are out could you do a painting tutorial for one of the units ( sorry for the misspelling)
I'll keep them in mind for future full length tutorials :D
Amazing job
Hi Pete,
How about you try a monster like the Carnosaur? Seraphon are popular at the moment - just had a new battletome released . . . .
Really nicely painted. Another great tutorial.
Really helpful! My minis are lookin good cause this video! Thanks! 🤘😁
Nice work, how about use the air painting?
Another top notch video. Excellent
Amazing video. Please do Stegadon!
I've been thinking about going for a white colour scheme for my Seraphon. Any hints and tips about which colours work best? Particularly as a wash?
For their skin?
yep
Fantastic tutorial, my man!

Question: I don't have enough money to buy colors which you listed, could you suggest some main color should I buy so it will fit my wallet

Thanks you for this video and i like your work :)
Do you have any cheaper recommendations for a primer?
Thanks for a great tutorial, just starting out and your post has really given me a great idea of how to get under way. Just noticed on the comments you say you use a combination of grey and black primers, as in a mix or do you mean just a straight grey primer for this model? Cheers.
A decent beginners guide.
Where I can found this penture color?
Great tutorial!!!
Bruh would kill to see you paint Dark Eldar Kabalite Warriors with extreme edge highlighting.
Very good Job Sir!
I enjoyed it.
Do you thin your paints with a different brush to which you use to apply it? Or is that just the edit?
I tend to use a larger, older brush. It means that if I get paint down into the root of bristles then it doesn't matter.
The only down side to those models are the mounts claws.. Surely they could of taken inspiration from Velociraptors in Jurassic Park because they're awful. Excellent job on the video bub.
The Dark Elf Cold Ones are far superior miniatures than these ones unfortunately.
check out the batman board game on kickstarter it comes with lots of miniatures
nice job
Can I ask what camera you use for recording these vids and where you place it?
Really like your tutorials
Very awkwardly haha. Basically, the camera is in front of me and I sit with my legs either side of the tripod and reach around the camera to paint.
The War Gamer what camera and lens do you use?
I've got a good Canon but can't get the close ups with the lens I have for it
I use a Canon EOS M100: amzn.to/2GjVKGn with a 22mm Lens amzn.to/2p3Jl23
The War Gamer I think that's the same camera that I have, and I'll have a look at the lens.
Thank you very much chap. Keep up the great work.

They look like they're from a different generation. Sauri should be broad and mean, as they are in lore. Your painting is exquisite though. :)
I just found out it was an old model. The new ones look way better apparently. I think they should model them on what CA did with Total War Warhammer.
I really struggle with painting the feet and stomach on these guys. I either use too much wash and or struggle with the highlights. I think I will just start dry brushing those sections and wet layering the other sections
Which primer did you use?
yeah he's not clear on that, just a grey primer. I would like to know which one too!
A mixture of Vallejos Grey and Black airbrush primers. I've also used Halfords Car Primer as well.
More dinosaurs plz
Your paint already looked very thin BEFORE you added water, it's like you're painting using watercolors instead of hobby paints
With the base paints you can afford to water them down a little more as the pigment levels are still pretty high. A general rule of thumb is, the more thin layers you apply the better the finished coverage.
Very nice tutorial
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You could easily get a job as a radio or TV announcer.
If only there were radio and TV shows about painting models!
you can't use a lighter color to shade a darker color. art class 101
Algorithm boost
the raptor looks so ugly, i dont like the color
Very well done.
