Valbjorn is for long now the one that personnified Space Wolves miniatures at the highest level. Every figure comes with his background emphasized by his beard, his haircut and his accessories.
What's so amazing is as I'm watching, I forget just how frickin small the figure is and then my brain notices your fingers again and I'm amazed at how much detail you can put into something so small.
Jarl Valbjorn himself! I had no idea you did UA-cam tutorials!? You’ve easily been one of my biggest inspirations into the hobby for the last 2 years and the reason I started using green stuff 👌🏻
this whole thing feels like synthwave asmr the tunes in the background the vaguely cruddy mic the smooth dulcet tones of your voice the pacing of the tutorial a+, i'm ready for bed (in a good way - sculpting right before bedtime lol, very relaxing)
Gotta say, you do a fantastic job with sculpting hair. I'm going to have to practice this a bunch to get my skills up. Appreciate you posting up something like this to help
I always disliked the human heads for Warhammer minitures so I put them all in a bag and replaced them all with helmets, you have given me a reason to bring the heads out! thanks so much for this info and your channel is way too underrated. What a treasure to find this before you get all famous and everyone steals this technique!
Just found and followed this tutorial! It has made my new leagues of Votann models soooo much better. I love seeing them with big traditional dwarf beards. Thank you!!
Love this tutorial. I'm watching in hopes of putting some much needed beards on space dwarves. Also, as a werewolf-bearded fellow, I appreciate the nod to the higher cheek lines of we hirsute folks.
Just over the top amazing results man, you make it looks effortless. Fantastic video. I like that it's a full realtime video as well without a bunch of edits, so people get a realistic idea of the effort required.
These are amazing. Thanks for this great tutorial. My wolves are about to get a whole lot more beardier. The tip for changing the ratio for the blue is a game changer.
Since i found your video, all my spare heads now have mediocre beards and hair. Appriciate the work you put into this video! And a sidenote, was really refreshing to have a person talk calmly through it, and not overhyped and squeaky, keep it up!
That's really great to hear! It's funny, in person I'm very pumped up but during these videos I feel very relaxed - the best sculpting is done with a slow heartrate haha.
@@jarlvalbjorn yeah, seems like it! I have moved on into more free imagination since, having my 40k on a hiatus for a short while, still having tons of fun doing hair and beard 😅
I love this tutorial, I just followed it and it worked great, though I am intensely annoyed cause I nailed it on the first go then overworked it luck a dummy, oh well attempt 2 was still pretty good, this is the first time I sculpted anything thanks a lot for giving me the confidence to try, you rock
I'm firm Instagram and I couldn't wait to learn from the best beard and fur sculptor Ive ever seen! Great work on the video and I hope you do more if you can!
Thanks for posting this tutorial, I managed to get a nice beard on one of my operatives. I 3D printed a short sleeve ball cap wearing merc, but his chin didn't print out. The new beard allowed me to save the print, and get him back into the fight. I have to add your video and sound quality are excellent for a first time video.
This is an amazing GS tutorial. Real time, informative, and definitely not overhyping how easy something will be. Gotta say, the ratio of blue to yellow is something that seems so obvious hearing you explain it but I just never saw it explained properly anywhere else. I've been trying to sculpt a full 50:50 mix and seeing expectable results. I love these methods and will be definitely trying them myself.
Actually followed this tutorial to figure out beards for the first time with some ironhead squats, some of them have open helmets but bare chins so it a great opportunity to try it out
Came from Reddit, really nice vid man, looking forward to more if you do more. Would love to see cloth, like cloaks, tabards etc if you're thinking of doing more.
came here after another youtuber, Jam's Mini Mods, mentioned you in one of his videos about sculpting beards. i'm going to start sculpting greenstuff beards/hair on astra militarum dudes, and this was such an eye-opener on what you can achieve. super informative and insightful, cheers!
@@jarlvalbjorn I have the same situation. Found you on Instagram. As they say here in Russia, "У тебя золотые руки (You have golden hands)." Unrealistically cool.
Absolutely phenomenal video. I'm not very good at manipulating green stuff, but this gave me enough confidence to start giving beards a shot. Thanks much!
really nice work! fellow space wolves collector here, i have "mastered" the furs, but i havent done any beards or hair before, this have inspired me to try it out. great video!
Excellent video, loved the advice. I've just been doing a mutated lion pelt on my chapter master and Im going to use this technique on the mane tomorrow and give him an awesome beard like your space wolves 👍😁
Really excellent tutorial :) I've recently started a project making Vostroyan Firstborn and the lack of impressive beards and moustaches on existing pieces has been a let down so far. Found this video excellent on helping me on my way
Fantastic work, this video is probably my favorite in sculpting hair and bears for sure. I will attempt to work the same way but on a larger size as I don't work in that scale.
I just had someone tell me about your video in Facebook, I am wanting to do the exact same thing but find some different heads to do it with some custodians I want for kill team. Really is freaking awesome man.
Have you seen the new Leagues of Votann/Space Dward/Squat line by GW? I feel like all of the organic units would greatly benefit with more beards, braids and beer added by greenstuff
I would love too see some of the close ups you use to check your work and any more help to shape the moustache out of the beard. Once again thanks for an amazing introduction to this. I'm off to try some.
so simple yet so complex, thank you. would love to spend one day working with you, working on my first army that just happens to be wolves so this has been fun
Really nice jobs. BTW, as Space Marine never (in my experience) have eyebrows, have you ever added some big, bushy eyebrow? I think on an old and haggard face they would look awesome.
Want to say I stumbled across your channel and wanted to say wow! I’ve been wanting to covert the heads on my space wolves and you’ve shown me an awesome way to do that and it’s sooooo easy. I’ve been doing this for my new indominus box set and will have a video on my channel soon as I get more done
Valbjorn is for long now the one that personnified Space Wolves miniatures at the highest level. Every figure comes with his background emphasized by his beard, his haircut and his accessories.

This is such a cool thing to hear - Thanks so much the kind words!

Yooure INCREDIBLE!!!!!! Im SO grateful that youre giving away this amazing knowledge for free!!!
No worries man! Really glad you found it useful ☺️
Love this tutorial. I'm watching in hopes of putting some much needed beards on space dwarves. Also, as a werewolf-bearded fellow, I appreciate the nod to the higher cheek lines of we hirsute folks.
Not only great sculpt but fantastic explanation of what you are doing and why. Inspired me! Thanks
Just over the top amazing results man, you make it looks effortless. Fantastic video.
I like that it's a full realtime video as well without a bunch of edits, so people get a realistic idea of the effort required.
I really appreciate your comment! Going forward I'll be embracing this style and just going for it on each tutorial.

Holy..... the way that beard just formed is amazing! It blew my mind! I am totally using this and sharing this video with everyone I can. Brilliant!
Thank you! I appreciate you doing that, man, seriously! 🙏
Amazing work, I had to watch it in parts since I got quite dizzy due to the constant camera shake, but truly inspiring and amazing work.
Very clean fingernails. Great vid too, loved the music and plenty of neat tips
@Valbjorn Definitely the best Space Wolves conversions I have seen! Looking forward to more
Thank you! I'll be painting soon, I think, so stay tuned!

Thanks a lot man! 😁

The look and the flow of the hair and beard is fireeee. Great tutorial 🔥🔥🔥
This tutorial is amazing. Thank you, there are almost no hair greenstuff tutorials, facial hair or otherwise around and you did great.
Thank you so much! Really appreciate the kind words
Just sculpted my first Night Lord head with your amazing tutorial.
I love the Night Lords - they might just be my favorite legion.. If only they had more beards! haha
Here from instagram! Love your work, amped to try this myself 😁
Don't be shy to send me progress shots on insta, would love to see them.
Came from Reddit, really nice vid man, looking forward to more if you do more. Would love to see cloth, like cloaks, tabards etc if you're thinking of doing more.
Thanks! And definitely. I'd like to do a tutorial on all the techniques I use.
You should make a basing video!
I actually have one up!

So cool. I'm going to have to stop painting everything in sub-assemblies to try this.
Amazing. Great tutorial and attitude. Love the learn together style. Your marines are a piece of hair style art
Thanks man! I really appreciate you saying that. I look forward to making more tutorials soon.
I just found your account and this video is amazing!!! Just what I was looking for my Space Wolves. Thank you to take the time to make these videos.
No problem! Glad you're enjoying them 👍🏻
You make it look so incredibly effortless!
Thank man! You'll get there, just gotta keep at it!

Man this video is so relaxing and useful, thank you!
Anytime dude! Thank you
Incredible tutorial!
Absolutely incredible job you do there!
Thanks man!
Fantastic work, this video is probably my favorite in sculpting hair and bears for sure. I will attempt to work the same way but on a larger size as I don't work in that scale.
Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words.
@@jarlvalbjorn You're welcome, also beards... not bears. Although the technique would probably look great on bears too. haha
great video! Been wanting to give sculpting green stuff a go for a while and this has given me an enormous amount of inspiration!
Sorry for the late reply! That's awesome to hear, I hope it's going well for you! 👍🏻👍🏻
@@jarlvalbjorn Thank you for getting back to me! Yeah it is going well given some beards and hair a go and enjoying it! :)
@@NW_Painting_Official awesome! Hit me up on insta and send some pics of the work if you're keen on it 👍🏻glad it's going well!

Have you seen the new Leagues of Votann/Space Dward/Squat line by GW? I feel like all of the organic units would greatly benefit with more beards, braids and beer added by greenstuff
I have! I got the box ready to go, just need to carve some time out to beard them up
@@jarlvalbjornhi there!
How you been?
Just tried my first head and it came out beautiful thanks for the class 🎉
Anytime!
best tutorial i ever seen, please make one how to sculpt ultramarines robes.
I might do some cloak tutorial once I get into it 👍🏻
I would love too see some of the close ups you use to check your work and any more help to shape the moustache out of the beard. Once again thanks for an amazing introduction to this. I'm off to try some.
Check out my instagram, I do some really close shots on some models 👍🏻 link in the description of the video
Great tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve been looking for something like this a long time.
Thanks so much!
Great video. I wish for your channel to grow. Cheers mate thx for the knowledge.
I appreciate that! Thank you.
Amazing to hear how you do these, absolutely convinced me on giving toothpicks a try as well!
Thanks man! Hope it works for you.
Been working with milliput, miiiiiiiiiight have to give green stuff a try.
Yeah for hair and beards, green stuff I better if you're sculpting like this. Milliput can be great with patience and a different approach.
Mesmerising. Such a wonderful technique. Thank you so much for uploading this. 😊👍
all your tutorial are awesome!!!!
Thanks dude!
Awesome tutorial! I wanna try this now
Glad you like it!
A very good tutorial!
Thanks so much 😊
Great video and awesome results, thank you!
No prob dude! Glad you found it useful
just superb man. I'm doing a new Wolfspear force and this will come in super handy
love it man, glad you found it useful!
Looks amazing. Wonder how it would look on an ork. Thanks for the tips
Amazing! Thank you
Amazing skill. I would never in a million years, have considered using a toothpick, to achieve those results. Subbed.
Thanks man! More videos coming soon
Thanks for this. I'm about to start sculping hair for my hair-metal glam rock orks, so this was helpful. 😄
awesome! great application
Well done, convinced me to subscribe with this video.
Thanks man, I hope you make some badass beards.
Actually taking your concept and using it for hair. Can't represent the 3rd without luscious hair 😂
Would you be willing to do some more sculpting videos showing how you did other hair styles such as some of the ones on your Instagram?
Absolutely! I wanted to do a few on utility stuff like bases and rivets but I would really like to revisit the hair and beards.
so simple yet so complex, thank you. would love to spend one day working with you, working on my first army that just happens to be wolves so this has been fun
Amazing tutorial!!! I'm definitely trying this tonight! Thanks
Anytime! Glad it helped
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Anytime man
subbed, cant wait to see more tutorials for my space wolves!
Thanks dude!
Great tutorial 👌
Thank you!
Really helpful tutorial. Thank you for sharing 💪🏻
Really nice jobs.
BTW, as Space Marine never (in my experience) have eyebrows, have you ever added some big, bushy eyebrow? I think on an old and haggard face they would look awesome.
just got my first strip of green stuff,i have an idea for a custom scottish/highlander themed chapter,beards n kilts ooh yeah.

It’s incredible how well you do this lol i really hope I can pick it up like that!
Looks super nice and realistic. When will you show us some painted models??? Can't wait
Thank you! Not sure on paint, hopefully soon!
Hell yea dude! Been waiting for this
Thanks so much for sharing your techniques, and great work. Do you have any ideas/plans for new vids? Looking forward to them!
Anytime! Just put up a video about rivets, plan on doing a basing tutorial soon 👍🏻
This is absolutely amazing. Thank you for this.
No worries man! Cheers
