Watching you has been refreshing. Been out the hobby 17 years and it’s nice to see a professional painter who shows them making mistakes ands allowing the process to be messy. 🎉
I’m super chuffed your enjoying the content, there’s a lot of talented painters out there, but yeah it can be quite daunting, and I’ve always thought showing the mistakes are key for those wanting to learn. 😍🙏😍
@@PeachyTips Proof that Peachy has not been replaced by a robot.... yet
Absolutely agree nice to hear when you make mistakes or just change your mind mid paint process is really refreshing as I find myself doing that all the time
@@AZombieDude83 why I love peachy or Lloyd and Duncan's style of videos is that they are 100% helpful and achievable. Obviously they are excellent painters but crucially they realise that most of us are here to paint armies and a lot of UA-cam is "look at me paint an awesome thing" not 'HOW to paint an awesome thing'
I love these tutorials.. You make it look so approachable.. No crazy blending.. No perfection highlights, and you still get a terrific result. Going back to darken spots after a drybrush really makes a difference, so simple and so effective. Thank you
Glad to be of service Jim 👍👍👍
And I’m chuffed you enjoy the videos
Quickly becoming my favourite painting channel alongside Mr Rhodes. Your style is much more my way of painting to. 🙂
Thank you so much 😀 high praise indeed
Makes it look so easy. Been putting off painting my Custodies for Horus Heresy. This has inspired me to get to work.
But has Valdor ever had a fight in a parking lot?
The real questions being asked here 👌
best method for shadowkeepers. paint licker approved.
"Every model is a Necromunda model" words to live by. ❤
😍👌
I got myself some custodes wardens and I named them after The Ashleys from Recess. I love the solar watch paint you did
The patrons name scroll could be one Custodian's name.
Fantastic paintjob as always, mister Peach!
Ha! That’s a great spot lol, they do have some long names hahaha.
And thank you for the lovely comment too
I am certain they are popular because Superman likes to play them…
That dark metallic paint scheme is awesome. Never seen it before but I love it!
The Stormcast heads were a nice touch. Thanks for sharing!
Was hoping you'd do Shadowkeepers as they are my favourite Custides.
Cheers Peachy 🫖
I’m really chuffed with how they came out, and i will use this method on black legion marines too
That Shadowkeeper in particular looks brilliant - thanks for giving us a chance to enjoy the colour schemes these guys come in other than just a bucket of gold paint being thrown at them!
Part of why those reds are either too orangey or too pinky is that the Army Painter's "pure red" is not really all that red compared to basically any other manufacturer's red. They focused on coverage with white pigment, instead of, say, what GW does to Mephiston.
I am all for channels going heavy with a manufacturer, and most of those Fanatic paints work very well, but that "pure red" and that basilisk red, just like Pallid chalk flesh from GW, are great examples of why we should consider multiple manufacturers in our paint collection, instead of giant, single manufacturer sets.
Very inspired by your Necromunda idea with the shields, some sort of homebrew gang with just a random unarmed civilian paired up behind a single Custodies would be such dumb fun for a narrative game
Madness but fun for sure!
The Shadowkeeper is in Necromunda just for the vibes.
😂👍
This is super cool! I think most people get scared of doing Custodes because of the detail, but yeah they're not that hard honestly! And showing how to do it faster is pretty awesome!! Sweet and useful vid!
😍🙏😍 thanks, I’m chuffed you like the style, and they’re a real joy to paint tbh
Incredibly helpful video. Thank you 🖌️🫶🤘
Solid Intro and Outro Peach! ;)
Great tutorials as always, Love the enthusiasm
Cheers Ruby 😍👍
@@PeachyTips Anytime darling 💙
Enforcer Peach! Love it! Just the right mix of self deprecation and vanity.
Superb video sir. Super accessible approach, with amazing results!
😍🙏😍 accessibility is my main goal
Welcome back! :D
Amazing video Peachy. It was hard to choose a favorite, but the purple and gold is the winner for me.
yeah i found it very hard to pick too, i certainly love the Purple and gold ones....the black ones were super quick to paint....but also im a big fan of cream and gold....naaaah who am i kidding i love 'em all!
Really like the cloth on the Aquilian shields. Gonna have to go back and update my leviathan contrast bits.
Love this! Funnily enough I decided to go for a purple highlight instead of red on my Shadowkeeprs but that's an easy switch. Great tutorial (as expected!)
Thanks! And that’s the beauty of painting is just switching out to what you want. 😍👍
I don't think iv seen the solar custodes before I like the white and gold armor contrast might get myself a cheeky box of them, cheers for the peachy tips 🤙☕
You are most welcome……cheers 🤙☕️
amazing job on all of them. which brushes do you prefer to use nowadays?
I use a mix of army painter, artis opus, and citadel
That shadowkeeper looks badass! Drybrushing all that trim is a gamechanger! Do you think it work on something like Chaos space marines and Thousand Sons as well?
Well I’ll definitely use it on black legion, wool need to see how I go about translating it onto the others, 👍
@@PeachyTips looking forward to see the results
Great video sir, I really hope there is an enforcer peach model and if not would love to see you make one.
Great guide again Peachy!
I really like the black gold recipe. Going to use that on my anvils of heldenhammer.
Perfect! And that will be amazing to see
Thanks Peachy for the great video! You're the reason I started collecting custodes and painting them (classical Gold/Red shield host, can't go wrong with vanilla)
I had a few thoughts while watching the video. My first thought was "What could a painter who's new to the hobby learn here, and what's missing?"
1) it's a good idea to state which base coats you use for which colour scheme, for instance on the Aquilan shield you have a gold base coat - which gold? Custodian painters usually go pretty nuts with different gold recipes (with varying results)
2) It would help tremendously you could either link to or perhaps leave a few suggestions for different paints from other manufacturers that could be used. ArmyPainter paints are generally quite/very good IMHO (I love their speedpaints 2.0 for example), but many use Citadel colours for instance. While experienced painters will use whatever they feel like or even mix/match - new painters will look very closely at what you choose and try to replicate your result(s). You, as an experienced painter, leaving a few suggestions for similar/or other solid recommendations would help them immensely. :)
3) A tutorial on how to make gemstones in a different way would be really cool. For instance with Technical colours like Soulstone blue + silver base coat, or with layers/glazing/varnish-combos. Just an idea, it's neat to show them side by side and see the different effects.
Anyways, love the videos mate, keep 'em coming! :)
Also do you have a discord server for your channel? If not - you should consider getting one to start building your community, and people can easily find your YT-channel that way too. The Warhammer community in general is very online-oriented after all.
Drybrushing a power axe? You absolute madlad. Wonderful work, I've never been a huge fan of the alternate schemes but these all look great. Might have to steal that Shadowkeepers drybrushing scheme for easy CSM armour...
Tbh I think I’ve discovered the easiest way to paint black legion….so yeah go for it
Lovely work Sir.
Cracking video, I love the shadow armour aesthetics, but maybe I'll throw the purple robes on those because purple is a great colour.
Yep! I’m pretty much in the same camp on that idea 🤘
I had no idea there were other types of Custodes! They looks so much better! ❤️👏
I know right! I mean gold and red are cool……however
Man that quick Shadowkeeper scheme has me contemplating on selling my current Shadowkeepers and starting over with that lol. The gold and metallic trim is fantastic
Great video big peach, they look great
Cheers 😍👍
Great video. The aquilan shield are definitely my favourite of the three. Also, nice to see a video on custodes at the moment with a sensible comment section.
It is great that most of the comments have been super supportive and positive
Awesome video mate. I love that Diabolic Plum paint (though there now really needs to be a "lovely Peachy" paint as well now!) Loved all of these schemes and yeah Custodes could be a nice army project as the lower model count means their a bit more storage and space friendly if that's a concern - I am kinda tempted by them now - though I am really thinking what a home brew force of them would look like if they were all battered and grimy - possibly using some of the techniques from your Fallout video? Be a bit different. And you're damn right every model is an Necromunda model! Maybe they're there because Karloth Valois has come back (I think that was his name any way - the dude in original Necromunda who was basically a necromancer and had an army of plague zombies - and his model was wicked cool and very extra!)
😍😍😍 and great shout on Karloth Valois, I’ve been meaning to kitbash that guy
And thanks for a lovely comment too
Loving that black scheme peach! very neat for Justaerin and black legion too!
I'll keep on watching the video and see what else I like!
Edit: Lol I called the sons of horus vibes in advance hahahah
The solar watch look awesome! I quite like that combination of the white and gold. It's quite tricky to do well
That’s because you have a good eye for colour matching clearly, glad you enjoyed the video 😍👍
Great video as always, full of freat tips! I would definately use grim black speedpaint in these cases, but that is obviously a personal preference.
Great video as always. Personally the custodees never really did anything for me but great tips on speeding up painting.
Peachy, you are the Constantin Valdor of approachable painting tutorials.
Ha! Well that’s a title I’ll take 😂😂😂
An incredible video like the ones you always make. Could you tell me a quick and easy way to paint my Nightlords? Thank you. You are Best.
8:01 i believe its one verbal warning, 2 written then a performance plan... they have a strong union.
Hahaha
See I said about the stormcast heads on Twitter and got shot at by some unsavoury people (imagine questioning me on stormcast and custodes... fools) they fit so well!!
Yep, they’re perfect! Ignore those naysayers
This was great... really made thr thought of painting such detail less intimidating... appreciate showing the wee mistakes on the journey!
Legend.
Glad you enjoyed it, and making mistakes is all part of the painting journey, so definitely worth showing them
Been uhm-ing and ah-ing about picking up a Custodes Guard box to use in Kill Team and this might push me over the edge 😅
Absolute legend, been waiting for inspiration for my sisters army (its a serious pile of shame 😂) love the bone with gold (will add purple, its my fav). Its so good you have got to put your own experience into the community, keep on inspiring 🍀💚#Juggz
😍👍 thanks and I’m chuffed that the videos are helpful……also JUGGZ!
Thanks for this! I'll be watching this a few times for my all women Shadow Keepers Adeptus Custodes army.
Hell ye, new peach 🍑
Another smashing Jumper
😍😍😍 FANKS SUGS
Hahaha! Another one for the mums
love that purple 💜
What brush do you use?
Great video as always Peach 😘🍑
I wondered why the head was so wobbly. Liked the optional head! Looks great. A tiny head makes the whole Custodes super bulky and imposing.
Is that fallout I see in the back?
Anyway, glad you're making this video since Custodes are such a common entry point to 40k these days. I don't play Custodes but it'll be nice to be able to point the people getting on board to this video.
Hey Peachy - for the last colour scheme which Gold Primer did you use please? Cheers!
Sorry I forgot to mention the spray, it’s golden armour from AK
@@PeachyTips awesome thanks - it’s a lovely cold gold! 👌
@@PeachyTips What would be an appropriate touch up colour for this spray, Mr Peach?
i painted 6 of those allarus custodians recently, i spent way too much time time doing them and still wasn't happy, still nw to painting and got carried away doing highlights, recess shading, blending and glazing.
Wish i seen this first lol.
Lmao bro went there with the intro. Love the tips, Peachy! Any chance we could get a few Chaos painting tips for Iron Warriors, Alpha Legion and Black Legion?
Ha! Cheers 😆.
And yes I have plans to do a guide on the traitor legions, the shadowkeeper is definitely similar to how I’d do black legion now.
"oo Peachy's new vid .. oh, Custodes? hrm .. ok, nothing else it'll be fun" Curses, this was really good, I liked all three variants, broody black warriors with poor health and safety regulations, snazzy bone, and the commanders of bling .. hobby extra .. Army Painter Magic Blue??? I don't know what it is but I want it.
Thanks, and yeah magic blue is…..well…. magic 😂👍
For the wardens, any tips on filling the gap on the tabard? I feel like I spend more time than I should filling and sanding with marginal success.
So for a lot of quick and easy gap filling….which I will roll into a video at some point.
apply a bit extra superglue, or plastic glue, into the join, just do it so sits a bit proud of the robe, wipe with you finger or tissue.
Then I have an old file I use and just gently file the area, the fillings and glue sort of mix together and make a great quick and easy filler. Sometimes you need to do a second pass after it’s dried as the glue can shrink a bit.
Great stuff dude! So nice to see different painting styles given some airtime. You said the word punch so much I forgot myself and thought I was watching a boxing video at one point. Premium thumbnail and title (Peachy Punches a female custodes) = ONE BILLION VIEWS!!! Brill video:)
Hahaha! Now that would be a great title!
Just here to say I appreciate your approach, not just the painting.
I appreciate that! Thanks 😍🙏😍
Thanks Peachy, I was really struggling with the new Custodes box, now i already have one white. Please keep doing realistic paintjobs that idiots like me can actually replicate and dont take 200hours per miniature. ❤
😂👍 dont worry, I’ll be sure to keep them at the level we can all achieve
Nice jumper Peach. I see you’re using a flat brush for drybrushing, rather than the makeup brush. I tried the round brush but went back to the old flat brushes. Maybe out of habit after 30 years.
I think I’m the same, I use pop refer the flats
The entire Legio Custodes had one job during the Heresy, to keep the Emperor alive. So I don't think the Solar Watch have to worry about any threats that make it to Terra, they seem to have fantastic job security.
😂😂😂😂 very true
You could argue that they performed their job so well that he ascended to godhood. Maybe if they do their current job equally well, we'll soon get a god-planet.
@@alltat You must be the Adeptus Custodes' union leader, that's a good angle
I would be super curious for your take on Imperial Fists using the new Fanatic paints. Everything I see nowadays is contrast, which is a nightmare if you have to correct a mistake.
Have you seen my earlier video about the first founding? I cover imperial fists in that, it’s worth checking it out
Good stuff peaches 🍑
What kit did you use for those unhelmeted heads?
Those ate stormcast heads, as they’re a little larger in scale than most human minis. Specifically they’re the Warcry set Questor Soulsworn, but there’s tons of heads
It looks like you're enjoying those Fanatic paints!
I am! I especially like the metallics
Well timed, Peachy. I’m getting into the golden oldies and I’m in the ‘devour information’ phase.
Custodies can be…equipped in whatever way they choose. I’m a fan.
Devour away, I do love the options you get with the sets, I still think of all the wardens are my favourites, it’s that robe, it’s so nice for adding in colour
Great stuff and super peachy tips! Thank you!
Gotta respect a person with a 1796 hanging on the wall.
😂👍
Every model is a necromunda model, and every necromunda model is a potential inquistor or acolyte model 😊
☝️💯☝️
what kits are the alt heads from?
Those are stormcast heads, specifically the Questor Soulsworn from Warcry
I love you Peachy, keep up the great work
There really great paint jobs how ever i have to say the black custodie looks fantastic!!!
For me that one is the best 🔥🔥🔥
Cheers Martyn, I think I’ve discovered the optimal way to paint black legion
They really do have the worst job though.
@@JimmyCrawford reading about the prison thing its self they patrol in Cypher Lord of the fallen was mind blowing, let alone what ever life forms reside in it!!
So agree they have got the worst end of the stick!!
@@PeachyTips it was your techniques you did here i think you showed in another video that i put to good use on my pink chaos bad boy kit bash!!
Which came out surprisingly good albeit not as good as yours 😂😂
I got some black legion only problem is i want them for my home brew chaos so there going to end up pink… then again i could do it as a rag tag war band!! 🤔
Great video as always, I really appreciate how messy you allow the process to be in all your vids. Really reminds me to not get frustrated if something doesn't immediately look the way I want it to on the base coat stage
Agreed, I’m sure some painters are super neat, but I can sort all that near the end with a few quick tidy ups. Every model has an ugly stage….its all good.
Totally agree. The first time I saw him do that was a "wait, what?" moment, that I shouldn't beat myself up for things not being perfect first time like they are in so many videos.
@@PeachyTips Although every model has an ugly stage, many of mine never make it beyond that stage 😅
Love the videos! I’m getting better thanks to you
Would love to see more necrons
"Coz they're not real". A mantra we should all play wargames by
Nice Juggz on the Custodes
Thanks I’m very proud of those JUGGZ
The STC hidden there.
Have you ever thought about doing a necromunda campaign? 😂😂😂
Oddly I have, a four part campaign to be precise.
@@PeachyTips ever release it? Or just the first episode?
Ps: do old world painting tips. Lots of people need to paint while armies, it’s popular at the moment, and some stuff doesn’t have tutorials on painting in the last 10 years
Cracking video Mr P, keeping it nice and approachable as always - top notch 👍
Great to see your channel growing and enjoying the jugzz podcast
I have a bit of a dumb question but let's say I've been eyeballing these big glorious bastards (and the sisters of silence) as my first tiptoe into warhammer. Do people have different factions or regiments in the same army? I understand it's my money, my army, my decision, but am I going to look like a weirdo going to my game store and having some traditional gold boys and some of those darker versions as well as some of those purple boys? I understand you wouldn't mix and match some of the others (such as Ultramarines mixed Salamanders mixed with blood angels) but since these are all Custodes does it matter?
I mean as shields hosts there could be a very relevant reasons as to why all three would be there, the standard gold and red as just the warriors doing their thing, some shadow keepers locating some ancient enemy, and the aquilian shield because they need to protect a key individual(s), so yeah very doable indeed.
But as you mentioned it’s entirely your choice how you present them
Thank you Peachy, I've got a box of Custodian terminators that have been sitting around gathering dust as I've just not had the inclination to do stuff with them. But after watching your video, you've inspired me to use them as the Aquilan Shield for a character in my Star Phantoms army.
Oh sweet! Well I’m glad to have helped those mighty warriors eventually come to the table
At this point I want to propose you just go ahead and make "Just soak 'em off" or "Just soak it off" merch xD
😂👍 I like this idea lol
Never heard the phrase "innies or outies" before. I never want to again haha
Just the normal description for the two types. Standard belly button jargon.
Where did you get the heads?
Those are stormcast heads, you get loads of helmeted and unhelmeted ones in the sets
@@PeachyTips Cheers, might need to spring for some Sigmarines now!
I bet an Aquilan Shield custodian would appear next to Richard Sharpe to protect him from the SIMMERSONS!
BASTARD!!! 😂👍
If sharpe was a custodian, which host do you think he would be? Amazing vid mate
thanks! and i reckon Sharpe is Constantin Valdor...he has to be..mind you is he dead?
As a counterpoint good sir, wouldn’t sharpe now be “the king in green” ( it had to be asked 😂😂😂😂😂)
Peachy was in the Underhive to meet a notorious gang of Corpsegrinders regularly involved in assault, cannibalism, and worse. He was put in a difficult position. Peachy didn't want to show disrespect, but on the other hand, he didn't want to worship the Lord of Skin and Sinew. The Aquilan Shield could tell things were about to kick off, so they got Peachy out of there FAST. #peachyongangs
🤣🤣🤣 have you been reading my Escher script?!
Also that was incredibly well done
@@PeachyTips I remember those parody sketches from the 90s. When you mentioned the idea on Juggz, I couldn't stop laughing 🤣
Comment for the comment god. Great vid Peachy!
Making me want Yet Another Army. \o/ *I'm doomed.*
Dude, I love you... But at 10:30 when that head was wobbling about... 😯
I was triggered 😂
Hahaha! Yeah your not alone, the footage around that was a little bit fuzzy so I can only apologise for the wobbly head 😂
@@PeachyTips I was like, "It's going to fall off onto the floor and get covered in husky hair... Noooo!"
Then I remembered that's what happens to me and not everyone else 😂
@@hairysticks74 🤣🤣🤣
I do not need a custodes army... I do not need a custodes army...
