You are a very talented painter, and it comes across in your sculpts. You are a painters' sculptor, if that makes sense. Great posing, with lots chunky detail that adds character but doesn't make you want to kill yourself with how fiddly it is. Also, your narration is the right kind of low-key amusing for a painting tutorial.
You deserve so many more followers, you are very talented and teach a unique way of painting that gets a result I've been looking for, and you genuinely helped me calm down and gave amazing and funny life advice. Thank you so much for these videos
Thanks so much, that’s a really nice comment. I’m not worried about the number of followers or views, if my video reaches someone like you who gets something meaningful out of it and makes some kind of positive difference in your life, I’m happy. But yeah nah, glad you enjoy the content :)
Thanks so much Thomas! Best way to learn in my opinion, is to enjoy the learning! Please spread the word so I can grow the patreon and make it even better ;)
Yep I’m back! Got a few new videos up, check those out. UA-cam algorithm has not approved of my hiatus so a lot of people don’t know I’m back :) thanks for watching
I love your channel, being able to see the whole process of making and painting is so nice compared to the 5 minutes you get on other channels. Love to put you on while I paint and get to watch a pro with a smooth voice that sails me away to zen land.
Far out bro, brand new to the channel listened to this while getting some work done. You're like the Bob Ross of minis, alot of information but enough character to keep me interested. Tops 🤙
Thanks big john! Get the paints out for sure, have a crack. I had about a 10 year walkabout too, before I came back to the paints. Ever since I can’t stop
Extremely good video mate. The part at the end about self doubt was cherry. Definitely something that I can struggle with in miniature painting and was good to hear a counter for it.
Thanks my friend. Being away for such a long time, I learnt how to deal with self doubt. Self doubt has always been my curse, not believing I am good enough (or what I do). I need to constantly remind myself that perfection isn't real, it doesn't exist, it's just self doubt in disguise. Keep on painting man!
I've been a UA-cam subscriber for a year or two now, and joined your Patreon in the first month. I've always been amazed at your work, and just thought I'd throw a comment in here to let the algorithm know how great your content is!
another great painting tutorial. Thank you so much for your videos, I watched your tutorials so much, especially the deathguard one, which allowed me to progress enormously in painting, all thanks to you thank you so much.
Makes me so happy to read a comment like this. That's all I want, for people to enjoy watching the video and THEN go and enjoy their own painting. Magic.
Gonna print off Mezgob and his brother sometime soon and paint them as two enemies to my first space marines chapter, cant wait and stoked to support you, big fan of your work!
I've been a subscriber for a few years now, glad to see you back at it. Sorry to hear about your eye! I don't paint minis at all anymore, but I've always enjoyed your content. Insane talent as always.
I use a combination of red grass games sable brushes which are very affordable, or Windsor and newton series 7 brushes which are the most superior brush you can buy, but very expensive. So if you can afford it, get a WnN series 7 (size 1 or 0 will be good). But otherwise, get your brushes from red grass games because they’re much cheaper and the quality is pretty good
@@TabletopCollective there are a few other videos on the channel and two or three most recent ones. If you’ve never seen the channel you have a fair bit to watch hehe
This was really inspiring! I often add quite vibrant colors when it comes to my Boyz.. ( GW 90's , I guess 🤣) . shades of yellow, red, purple etc on Armor and such. This is something else! Looks awesome... can't wait to try a color scheme like this on a Zquad in the near future. How 'out of character ' it seems to be for me. 🤣 Tnnxz!!!! ( Waaaaaaergh!!!)
I absolutely adore your models and Im honestly really tempted to order a physical model (as I don't have a 3D printer) but I havent heard the best things about the site you have linked. I guess I just wanted to ask if you still support them to get a little reassurance about ordering from them if thats okay? I hope they are because I really wanna grab some of these models because they are incredible!
Hahaha! Tony the mech boss, gotta base him off my Italian mechanic who is the actual mechanic I referenced. Great idea! I am using a phrozen sonic 8k, amazing printer!
@@Mezgike ahh, no wonder the details look so noice! I'm using an elegoo mars 2, details are a bit muddled sometimes. I'm thinking about getting either the phorizon sonic 4k, or the anycubic 4k one.
Absolutely :) there is a new dedicated ork faction coming, similar to the Dredge. With a back storey and a bit of lore etc, and a unique theme. Focussing this faction as a beast Hunter army, but definitely with regular units like mega nobs and dreads included.
I don’t think the creepy narrative fits what is else a lot of great information :) I get it though.. we all gotta be a bit psycho to paint that detailed ;)
If no one else has said it, remove your print from the plate, then either rinse it on the supports or dunk I straight from the vat in steaming water. Pre-cured, the supports will just pop off. Support removal post curing leaves more damage and marring
blown away mate.. gonna swap my patreon sub over to you soon as i finish up a model im following.. i dont have a 3d printer, can anyone recommend a cheapo one that does a good job. "look how worried i am about it" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks my friend, what a nice comment to read! I can’t wait to have you over on the mezgike patreon, printing and painting my miniatures with us :) when I got my newest 3d printer, it changed my world. It is absolutely amazing. It cost me about $900 AUD, but you can get much cheaper printers as little as $200 or there abouts. My printer is the phrozen sonic mini 8k. You could get a sonic 4K which will be much cheaper. You can check out other printers from Phrozen, or elegoo like the Saturn or Mars models. Both phrozen and elegoo have a good range of printers from cheap to intermediate prices, and are loved and trusted by most of the miniature 3d printing community. Once you’ve joined the Patreon you are also more than welcome to join the mezgike discord, there are a lot of super helpful people in there to help with any 3d printing questions too.
Anyone else's wife getting surprisingly low on lids? I didn't have a real wet pallet for first year or two, and nuked through nearly every lid in the house.
Just making my return to UA-cam and the algorithm has forgotten me hehe. No worries, I’ll just keep making content and it will remember soon. Thanks for watching and commenting mate
@@Mezgike mate. This insane. I mean there is few good painters and few good painting tutors. You god damn have talent, dude ffs dont stop if only to grow personally. Look at some youtubers. Look at 3 year old auspex videos and look at him now. This whole yt thing is really great to grow across variety of skills. And you really pack a punch. Never seen such compilation of info so well put. And i am on 4-5 painting patreons now plus about 500 hours of youtube tutorials watched.
@@kerel995 get on my Patreon hehe. You’ll get my miniatures to download and print every month. I appreciate your nice comments! I’ll never stop making miniatures and painting videos.
I got diagnosed with a degenerating eye disease. I have it in both eyes, but it one eye it is holding strong at the moment. In the other eye, it is fully degenerated. Lucky we have two eyes!
I love the way you narrate it cracks me up 😂
Yeah mate just yapping on for 2 hours straight, you never know what will come out of your mouth :)
My fave thing about a Mezgike vid is how often I think, wow 👏 it's finished. And then he just slams in a new element to it's completion
Also, the mushroom glow having a shadow can be explained by the skirt and stalk not being bioluminescent
Yep I just keep going hehe. Layers :)
this is not a tutorial...this is a f***ing masterclass! top notch quality 🤌
Thanks so much :)
I love the one with the smug smile and a hat. Just awesome expression.
Thank you :) it’s interesting to sculpt an orc with no protruding teeth, you can get amazing expression with the lips
This is great !
I hope you will keep em coming for as long as you can
With this amazing support I will be doing it every single month!
Finally managed to get the big lad printed. Very excited to follow along and paint him up!
I’m speechless. The storytelling, the approach, the painting, simply amazing.
Thanks mate :)

Thanks Tezza!
Great paintjob and awesome model, but the best part is your narration. Makes the 2.40h swing by!
Thank you :) it’s always fun to narrate these.
Awesome stuff mate, makeing me want to break out the paint for the 1st time in a decade. Keep it up big fella ✌️
Thanks big john! Get the paints out for sure, have a crack. I had about a 10 year walkabout too, before I came back to the paints. Ever since I can’t stop
Absolutely love these videos!!! Love the funny comments and using 3d printing.
Thanks Gomezy!
Flipping fantastic mate! Can't wait for more eye science!
So happy to see you back. Love your videos
Thanks so much my friend! So good to be back
So good to have you back!
So good to be back. Back for good
Brilliant!!! And then this Bob Ross Vibe….. I think you have a new fan here 🥰
Everyone needs a new fan!

Woah, so happy to see a new video from you!
There are actually a few new videos :) check those ones out too. And also hit the bell so you get notified of the new ones
I put a nice dark purple wash on my green instead of putting a brown colour in, gives a nice hue in the shadows.
Yes! Stoked to watch this after work. Thanks Mez
I hope you enjoy it! Get a beer and an ice cream while you watch.
Extremely excited to finally watch this!
Get stuck in mate!
@@Mezgike Bloody loved that! Thank you!

@@Mezgike Thanks for the answer!
This is such good content! Please don’t stop!
Your Alive! Awesome, welcome back!
Yeah I’ve been alive again for a while now :) got a few new videos up
That "80% coverage" will save me A LOT of money on primers!
It’s so easy too! Never again will you have trouble with rough finish or orange peel etc
Welcome back! Best videos on UA-cam.
Thanks so much my friend! It feels good to be back making content. Thanks for watching.
I can definitely recommend that gorilla glue gel, the one that comes in the small bottle with the applicator syringe was a gift from god
Sounds even better! Thanks for the tip
This is amazing! Your style is unique and hilarious. Great job my dude! Had me super engaged and cackling throughout the whole thing!
Glad you enjoy my videos :) thanks for watching and commenting, look out for the next one soon

You're a very inspirational painter to watch. I love your vids and advice bro....2 Thumbs up!
Thanks a lot my mate :)
Two words: out-standing 😁
Can I suggest a three word version for future reference? Out-f**ken-standing :-)

Mate, so glad you're back! I think we'll need to see Tony the mek boss at some point too! Just out of curiosity, what 3d printer are you using?
Hahaha! Tony the mech boss, gotta base him off my Italian mechanic who is the actual mechanic I referenced. Great idea! I am using a phrozen sonic 8k, amazing printer!

DUDE! you never cease to amaze
Thank you :) so glad you enjoy the video.
"Let's get some more PVA glue, and put it onto the lid of some kind of container (that belongs to your wife)." 5:59 lmao
That black Templar wash has changed my life…
Yeah it’s a very different result to nuln!

Me: he's right so easy
My model looking like quato: kill meeeee...
Hahahaha
you can fill the gaps with resin an cure that with an UV Torch.. Cheers from germany. Love the Videos.
Great vid and you crack me up with your little comments. Grab a shiv 😂
Yeah nah, glad you’re keen man :)
That's very impressive
Thanks mate!
Beautiful mate 😻
Thanks brother!
All your characters that youve made would make a great enemy in a video game. Im thinking something in the tone of Shadow of War or something
That’s a cool thought! I’d love to see them animated one day
Thank you for another great video, really appreciate your work
So glad you like it!
Absolutly awesome! Cant wait to get my warboss printed 🤤.
Any chance we will get some meganobz and squighogs in the same style soon 🙏🙏🙏?

Return of the King
The way you talk reminds me of the bearded dude from epic meal time way back when.
Amazing work as always! What resin/printer do you use? Your prints always look exceptional in quality, not sure mine could match.
Phrozen sonic mini 8k. It’s incredible. Looks as good as GW plastic
@@Mezgike No doubt! Most definitely will be my next printer once my battle-worn Anycubic Photon Mono breathes its last lol
That intro is making me cry mate. LOL
Cry and laugh, laugh and cry :) I just explained life hehe.
Could you tell me where I can purchase this model as I don't have my own 3d printer. Thanks
There will be physical models available on mezgike.com very soon. Keep an eye out there, join the mailing list so younger notified of the drop.
Wholesome as fuck.
You are back, great! Where have you been?
It's been a rocky couple of years but don't worry, I'm back now and I hope you enjoy my new videos and new miniatures.
I don’t think the creepy narrative fits what is else a lot of great information :)
I get it though.. we all gotta be a bit psycho to paint that detailed ;)
Nothing wrong with a bit of crazy ;)
I guess I have to set my printer back up now
Um of course you do, Karl you mad lad!
Hey are you still active on UA-cam? Haven't seen anything from you lately. Hope its going well.
If no one else has said it, remove your print from the plate, then either rinse it on the supports or dunk I straight from the vat in steaming water. Pre-cured, the supports will just pop off. Support removal post curing leaves more damage and marring
