    I’ve watch a lot of mini painting videos on UA-cam and I really do think these are among the best: practical, comprehensive, interesting and very well delivered. Not only do I enjoy them in their own right but I’ve learned something new in every one.

    Love how you are making this more accessible to all - we can't all win golden demons but giving us a way of making tabletop miniatures look epic is very much appreciated. That being said I wouldn't mind you focusing on some TMM - although it doesn't always photograph well I love the contrast between metallic paints and normal paints so any insights on that are greatly appreciated. Thanks and keep it coming!

    If you're still looking for ideas for different videos: Something I haven't seen many other 'tubers do is to go over the different types of hobby glues, what they're good for, bad for, and comparing them. Cheers mate.

    I love the take on a larger model for sure. I would love to see you guys try to show off really flashy colors on a larger models. Having such a large center of attention with bright yellows, purples and greens tend to look silly on big models; so if you show how to get a more realistic look with it, that would be awesome!

      We do need to make a tanky return, whether GW or non, the SWL stuff hugely impressed me... I've not touched any other plastics on level with GW, which they definitely are, they're also extremely well designed for easy assembly and painting in sub assemblies, which is utter gold as far as I'm concerned!

    First of all, congratulations on the 20k subscribers. It's well deserved, these are some of the best tutorials, and have kept me interested in the hobby whilst the world is, well, on hold.
    I love how honest you were at the end, saying how you just wanted to get it done! I think we've all been there, I sometimes struggle to get over that final push!
    It might sound a bit philosophical, but I'd love to see a tutorial on how you "approach" a paint job; how you decide on what colours to use, where you decide to start etc. Or just a quick guide on how to approach freehand, I have tons of models that should have tattoos but I'm too scared to paint them!
    And great work on the gargant, it looks sick!

Would have liked to catch the premier for this one but I was upside down in a welding robot at the time because work, so instead I invented new and creative combinations of swearing. That's a surprisingly helpful thing to do, just not when there are people around, then you just get funny looks....oh well, had a thought though, do you have a method for creating a wood grain effect on a part with no moulded texture, like an Ork choppa handle for example? I can do it with oil paints but that's a bit slow to use for a full army. Anyway, gonna stop blithering now, congratulations my friend! It'll be 50k before you know it!

    I am thinking of applying the sort of scheme that you used on the Glowing Green GHOST WALL but with a deep blue green in the shadows rather than purple and a less smooth transition to the light colours but have been struggling to make it work.
