You really should do this as a series: Sorastro’s Next Level. Something for intermediate level painters and creative ideas or just bringing in new ideas to old models. Might I suggest revisiting some of the old Zombicide: BP models? Love this!
@@Sorastro I like the idea :) This could also work with alternate sculpts, like the ZBP Ultimate Survivors. They are basically the hero figures already painted on your channel, but still new figures.
don't play MCP, but absolutely love this video, i'm of the same mind in leaving old paintjobs alone to show how i've grown as a mini painter, but this is a good reminder that sometimes if something really does bother you there's actually nothing wrong with breaking that self imposed rule. as for the paintjob itself, gotta say i'm blown away, i thought the original was great, but the amount of character and story you managed to get into it with these changes is amazing!
this is truly fantastic my friend. on a jovial/juvenile note the caution tape, for me, is a powerful callback to the original "you have won a beauty contest" chance card in monopoly in which the ink-drawn character is wearing a sash and holding flowers.
Really cool additions, makes me want to paint my Hulk asap! Also refreshing to see you in front of the camera for a change. Keep doing your Sorastro magic, you are the man!
@@Sorastro you've helped thousands of people (including me) in discovering the hobby of miniature painting, and I reckon you are an inspiration for other aspiring miniature painters here on youtube! I think all of these people look up to you and love you for the person you are, so there's nothing to be uncomfortable about.
Merci pour cette revisite filmée ! C'est tellement beau au final ! Et voir les travaux pour l'améliorer est très enrichissant !J'adore regarder vos vidéos même si je ne peins pas forcément beaucoup . Vous voir "en vrai" est un vrai plus pour vos vidéos ! je vous incite à continuer ainsi ! ;-) A bientôt. Thank you for this filmed revisit! It's so beautiful in the end! And seeing the work to improve it is very rewarding! I love watching your videos even if I don't necessarily paint a lot. Seeing you "for real" is a real plus for your videos! I urge you to continue like this! ;-) Goodbye.
I double-dog dare you to up your Hulk again in another two years! But seriously, the storytelling you added with the basing is fantastic. I can easily envision him crashing through the city for the previous few minutes.
Man, that opening shot of your collection is so awesome. Really jealous of your gaming group, Iw ould happily lose every game, as long as I get to look at the minis for 2 hours!
Just when you think it cannot possibly look better, you do this and increase the awesome factor tenfold! Thanks a lot for bringing these amazing videos to us, your work will inspire generations of miniature painters because you show how amazing the miniatures can become with solid painting but also explain how to do it throughough the video, making it look simple and also showing the intricacies and the techniques used to get these fantastic results. Keep up the great work, Sorastro!
Honestly I think it is quite brave to revisit an old mini, especially if it was one you were happy with to start with (Just doing the same with CMON Zombivors right now...) The source lighting from underneath really made Hulk look like he has popped out of the pages of a comic. Top job Mark. Love it
Wow!!! Mark this is tops!!! I love the new style, even the music has changed!!! I'm still watching this, but I'm so happy that I'll drop the message before the end of the video.... 100% sure I won't be disappointed!!!:)
The original Hulk was great, but this is a massive improvement on the miniature. I have been following your tutorials since purchasing Star Wars Legion, I find your techniques really useful. You are very good at getting miniatures to a high table top standard, and if you decided to take them further you show us how. Thank you so much for your tutorials, I have now found a pastime I really love and enjoy. Keep up the fantastic work. Thank you.
I've been watching you for quite a while. For me the insight into why and how you choose things far surpasses a how to video or color recipe guide. I don't say this lightly but this has to be my favorite video you've done. Really resonates with me and made me re-evaluate some things. Thank you so much and please stay safe.
Bloody Hell man that's incredible. I was thinking the other day, you were one of my earliest accounts backed on patreon, maybe even my first? And certainly the most consistent, with continuous incredible output. You set the bar high. - Nigel.
Dude, you've been with me from the very start (which is why you're still the very first name in the credit list!). I remember you telling me on Patreon years ago "you're an enabler, Sorastro"; that stuck with me. In truth though, you guys are the ones who enable me. Thank you my friend :)
Just "incredible" ;). Amazed watching you paint a street light let alone the OSL and the composition. I love Aaron Lovejoy but his hulk just hurts to look at because it's so intense. Your paintjob is more realistic as a guide as I know I can follow it to achieve something somewhat resembling your results. I have picked up some Crisis Marvel Protocol, mostly as practice as I went in on Zombicode Marvel Zombies Kickstarter. I do really like that Next Level idea btw. Thanks so much for all you share!!! You are a source of inspiration!!!
If you ever want to do a 'converting with Sorastro' series, I am here for it. I don't even play Crisis Protocol but this was a great video (that also may have made me start looking at prices for the core set)
This is a very good video for intermediate level painting. I don't like doing conversions myself (.. lack of imagination ..) but this is very inspiring
Great video! It's neat to see how even minor changes to color schemes and basing can really level up a paintjob. MCP has some great figures and Hulk is one of my favorites so I'm happy to see him get more love. You gave him a manicure :)
What an upgrade! I like the idea of taking a model painted up to a certain point (doesn't necessarily have to be a model that's already painted - you could paint up to the point of "tabletop standard" and then go beyond or something) and then introducing more storytelling aspects, more advanced techniques etc.. Anyway, lovely paintjob and great video. I like some of the Marvel models, but they're so expensive!
@@Sorastro I always enjoy your videos :) you go above and beyond to make them not only easy to follow and interesting but also eye-pleasing. And the music is really cool as well. Thank you for the great content
You managed to improve on greatness! Thanks for sharing this rework with us. Would you consider filming a special "battle report" game with your friends in the future? It would be incredible to see your collection in action.
Thank you Jeff! I would love to film a battle report one day; I just really need a camera that has better focus tracking (so I can get decent moving shots..). One day.. 😁
@Sarastro have you ever done an video of your painting space? From the looks of it it looks really cool would love to get a detailed look at how our have everything setup l.
I like that AMG changes their rules to keep older stuff relevant, but I am really worried that they're going to change some old starwars legion rules, I am worried that it's going to become something like warhammer with all those confusing edditions and forcing players to buy new rule sets. with that said, awsome work on that hazard tape, it really makes the model look like its interracting with the environment.
Hey Mike! I was actually really encouraged by what I saw in the Legion presentations during the AMG Ministravaganza; it seems like they also want to ensure that the older Legion characters and models remain relevant, which is quite a contrast from the kind of business model that relies on power creep to entice consumers to buy the latest expansions etc. Time will tell I guess.. 😀
Hello. Lol. I will never be as good as you, but I finally bought Legion Star Wars set and getting back into painting. I'm enjoying myself. They are a little different then painting my 40 k figs but I still enjoy painting them. And enjoy watching your videos.
Excellent stuff. Just something I noticed at the end: you have a patron named Jim Negro? Are we sure that isn't a poor taste Mark Twain / Huck Finn joke?
Cool video! I also went back and updated a hulk (that someone else painted) though with half your skill. I'm the one from Discord who was inspired by your Green Goblin smoke!!
Awesome upgrade on that model, About your Wowstick, Ive followed your link and and coulndt see the drill bits, only the srewdriver ones, does it come in the kit or you have to bough the drill bits apart?
Thank you! Ah, sorry about the Wowstick link; I've removed it, and will look for a better one later. I actually backed it on Kickstarter where it came with the drill bits... 🙂
Great Video! I'm curious, what's that stack of drawers you have on the right side of your desk, with the labels of the citadel paints? Looks really cool!
Thank you! That's the "Ultimate Citadel Paint Collection" which my wife bought for me quite a few years ago (I don't really use Citadel paints much these days to be honest, so I might repurpose it...) :D
At first I didn't care for the excess debris on the base, but it rapidly hit me that "Wait a minute, this is the HULK we're talking about, here!" Arguably the most volatile walking natural disaster in the Marvel Universe. It's totally apropos!
Damn it, I'm now looking at my painted Hulk (1 year old) and wanting to upgrade him! I will admit to have recently gone through all my collection and redone a number of the bases to add more interest to them. So I guess we do revisits at some level. Excellent video, informative and clear about your thought processes behind the project 😎🖖
I thought you might magnetise the lamppost. And then you could swap it around with random items. Like a rubber chicken or lollipop 🤪 another cracking video. Thanks 🤟🏼
It looks amazing as always! Personaly I wouldnt put the tape there for a playing piece. For a display piece? Yes. But since he will move around it would feel like it should fall of :D But this version does look ALOT better and that thing about the tape is just personal preference. Its not actual critique
Having just finished painting Dr Voodoo today, I compared him to the 1st Dr Strange I painted when he was released. My second painting of the Eye Of Agamotto is SO my better. It's MCP that's made my painting improve, after years of painting Space Marine after Space Marine, I love this game
Awesome results Sorastro! Odd question, you seem pretty cavalier with the glue you are putting on the hulk and on the base. Is that because you are confident it will dry clear and thin? With a matte finish? Or do you wick up some of the extra glue? Or do you go over after with matte varnish?
Thanks mate! I wasn't too worried about the superglue on the base as it's covered in rubble etc anyway. And the PVA glue I just for the tape dries clear - although it's a little glossy, but that's what matte varnish is for.. 😄
What a great transformation my friend 👏 The only thing I would add would be a Cople of cables at the base of the lamp Hulk is holding for extra dynamic 😀 Also let me know what you think of my channel 🤗
I remember when Alfosno Giraldez said that blends and smoothness are really overrated. Finding visual interest through texture, weathering, and contrast is much more important....now I see what he means.
@@Sorastro also where did you get does newspaper? did you print it yourself?? btw thanks for the wonderful video is there any updates for the next painting?? I saw all the videos and helped a lot on my MCP minis
You really should do this as a series: Sorastro’s Next Level. Something for intermediate level painters and creative ideas or just bringing in new ideas to old models. Might I suggest revisiting some of the old Zombicide: BP models? Love this!

This is a much better version of the Hulk, the idea of him smashing terrain around him is very fitting for the character. Well done sir!
Thank you very much! I'm glad you like my interpretation 😀
Second coming of Jesus got nothing on seeing this wonderful man talking on camera. Love ya Sorastro.

The caution tape idea is so ridiculously cool!
It’s hard to believe how much your painting has evolved. It’s really top tier painting lately, can’t wait to see what you paint in the future.
Thank you so much! There are certain games - like MCP and KDM - that make me want to be a better painter... :)
Love the creative additions. The tape reminded me a bit of a sash, to honest. "Hulk is prettiest one there is."
Ha ha - thanks :)
What a great episode. Really enjoyed the change of pace.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😀
@@Sorastro I always do!
You clever cookie. Fantastic update to your original piece with some great editions.

Thanks so much my friend! :)
Great - you have now stepped up my painting wants to a new level - PLUS "telling a story" - COOL !!
Thank you sir!! 😀
A worthy upgrade for Hulk! What was the little drill you used for pinning the lamp to his hand? I didn't see that in your list of equipment.
Thanks Jeff! Ah yes - I've just added it to the video description (the Wowstick) :)
Awesome! The new integration of model and environment is fantastic. The figure has much more impact now, you can see/feel how unstoppable he is :)
Thanks so much! Mission accomplished then :D
Wow this is awesome, almost looks a different mini.
Thank you so much! Mission accomplished then 😁

Yes! Thank you my friend :D
That is amazing. Was a little concerned about the base being a bit too busy and cluttered but you really succeeded in telling a story here.

Hi Derek! I published a PDF guide for Bullseye a while ago: sorastro.com/2022/10/02/bullseye-pdf-painting-guide/ 😀
What a great transformation my friend 👏
The only thing I would add would be a Cople of cables at the base of the lamp Hulk is holding for extra dynamic 😀
Also let me know what you think of my channel 🤗
Thanks a lot! And that's a great idea :D
I remember when Alfosno Giraldez said that blends and smoothness are really overrated. Finding visual interest through texture, weathering, and contrast is much more important....now I see what he means.
Absolutely! Case in point: my original Hulk was quite effectively "blended" but really lacking in character.. I'm much happier now though 😀
Sorry for my comment ... But WTF it s Amazing Sorasto!
Ha ha - thanks! :D
Which product is your auto drill bit ??
Hi! That drill is called the Wowstick - there's a link in the video description too 🙂
@@Sorastro also where did you get does newspaper? did you print it yourself?? btw thanks for the wonderful video is there any updates for the next painting?? I saw all the videos and helped a lot on my MCP minis
happy you used a bigger (belly) brush ;p
I'm happy you're happy 😁
you should of just kept the old one and done a new model to have both as a record
I could have, but I think I'd rather spend the £25 on something new (plus the real estate on my figure shelf is at a premium..!) 😄
