    Painting tyranids like this turns them from Saturday morning cartoon character to horror movie terrors.

      I think it's the darkening and dirtying that's doing a lot of impact.
      Still alien in color, but more realistic.

    Just remembered another little effects trick from many, many years ago, that helps achieve a nice, lifelike but creepy sheen to carapace like you see on beetles, that would really enhance either Tyranids or the new minis from the Aliens game that's come out.
    If you mix black and blue Quink writing ink together, (DON'T thin it down, or you lose the cohesion and it takes days to dry, and then looks streaky. Talking from experience here, believe me 🙂), and apply it to carapace armour with a fine/detail brush, and let it dry naturally, you get a gorgeous black/blue rainbow effect that not only settles in the ridges, but shines beautifully on the flatter surfaces, and can be very gently dry-brushed over once totally dry, to highlight any edging areas.
    I learned this by accident way back in the late 1980's, when I was painting a beetle as part of a large mini's base, and the end result blew my mind.
    Even after matte varnishing, the sheen stays vivid, and when the light hits it, the effect looks awesome and very realistic.
    I'd forgotten about this technique until I re-watched your video again today, and saw just how it could be used to make the carapace stand out on the Tyranid minis (Or on the new Aliens minis that I've been asked to paint, so I'll apply it to them, too).
    Again, thanks for posting your truly amazing videos, and even more for jump-starting my memory of techniques I'd almost forgotten about until now (I've been in the hobby since 1972, so have forgotten a LOT, but am still learning more every day), and can share with you and your viewers.

      Thats black ink and blue quink writing ink not black acrylic paint and blue quink writing in right? This tip sounds amazing and I think I might try this on a dark ethereal space marine army made to look like they were pulled from the darkness of space

    • @MrCrystalwarrior1
      @MrCrystalwarrior1 3 дні тому

      Yes it's the writing inks, not the artist inks.
      I tried artist inks, but just got a rather yucky dark blue instead of the effect mixing the writing inks gives.
      Good luck with the marines 🙂

  • @MrCrystalwarrior1
    @MrCrystalwarrior1 17 днів тому +4

    One trick I learned many years ago for stippling using an airbrush and a paint brush combined, to get some seriously nice stippling effects on saurian/alien skin is this: get a flat brush, apply some paint to the tip, and, using just an empty airbrush, spray air through the airbrush toward the paint brush, which you hold near the model, and the air blows little specks of paint over the areas you aim for.
    You can use this technique for doing lizard style stripes on dinosaur models, for getting some very nice mottling on alien skin, Nurgle flesh and even use it to help weather space marine minis and even armoured vehicles that you want to make more Grimdark.
    I haven't used an airbrush in many years, but am slowly turning toward getting back into using one, and seeing how you did the mottling on the Tyranid model brought back the memory of how I was taught to do it so long ago.
    Hope this tip comes in handy, and some of you give it a try, and it works out to be fun and informative for your hobby 🙂
    LOVE this video, as I'm thinking of painting a Tyranid force for a side project, and seeing how you painted this mini so dark and truly scary has inspired me even more.

    I just got into 40k (my friends got me Tyranids.) I have never painted any kind of mini before. I have been following your grimdark series since they look so good. Your instruction on how to paint is outstanding, especially coming from a true rookie painter. They definitely are not nearly as good as yours, but I am very happy with how they turned out so far. Thanks for your great content and keep it up!

    The speckling / mottling for skin pigments was gold! IVe got to find the right brush and technique / feel for this, but I’ll do it sometime. Thanks man and cheers!!
    I dunno how to support you other than subscribing - which I already did. And the villainy ink thing sounds interesting too, especially if they’re less toxic. For me, I use water based oil colors for everything, they’re less smelly aswell as their thinner.
    Kudos man and keep it up!

    It's hard, especially for new painters, to get away from the game's workshop style and recipe. There's nothing wrong with this, and I think a lot of people pick their armies based on the gw examples and end up creating their own take on the style. What I like about this is it is a great example of someone doing exactly that. Taking the models and painting them like the gw example but in their own style and take, which I think is what many people want to do.

      One of the funnest armies to paint for me as there’s so many different models. So much you can do with them in terms of schemes as well! I’ve done grim dark for years and it makes the tyranids look incredible. Can’t recommend enough. The newer models (minus the barbgaubnts) are so fun to paint as well.

    Do you have any photos of units on the table to share, the scheme is quite dark across both the model and the basing and for an army scheme i feel like it will be a little indiscernable on the tabletop? Maybe a spot colour to make them pop or taking the top highlights on the chitin higher will make them mroe readable.
