My jaw literally dropped when you did the oil blend. I've got a little sample oil paint kit that I've been planning on using to do the washing, so I figured I'd only use a few colors but now I guess I'll be using the whole range. Bravo.
my mother is a realistic oil painter on canvas and when i first started painting my 40k 15 years ago oil was the first things i used because of her... funny how mom's usually know whats best for you haha..
Years of painting and looking guides online, and this in by far in my top 3 styles. Veramente bravo, tecnica a parte i video sono fatti strabene, ben strutturati, terminologia perfetta, spiegazioni approfondite. TOP
As someone who builds models and 1/16 resin figures. Oil paints are the best tool for all kinds of effects. From rain marks to rust and rust streaking, to shadows and highlights. Glad you jumped on board!!!
You've inspired me to do a whole army using techniques I've picked up from your videos, using inks, using transparency and opacity to create different effects on my models. Truly a gift to this community!
Your content is literally in a league of its own. Nobody should touch a brush before having seen your videos first, you are literally saving us from hundreds of hours of frustration every time you post something. Well done Marco, impressive work.
Your videos like these have given me the courage to start integrate oil paint in my miniature painting, and I was really happy with my first attempt. I've already learned from the experience and know that I'll be even better at this technique on future projects.
Thanks! I used to work a lot on gunpla (that's where the name of channel comes from!) and I have a passion fo tanks; painting all these different things at the same time the boundaries between the different modelling styles became blurry
You're quickly becoming my favourite youtube minipainter. You share so much knowledge, and so many ideas and techniques that just makes me itch wanting to try them out. Keep in mind this is coming from someone who's been painting minis for roughly 25 years now, though on and off admittedly.
Airbrush for alot of the base. It makes things alot easier. Thats the big one for me. If you havnt got one then its alot more difficult and time consuming.
Excellent work for a simple space marine! I like that tip about using thinned out Tamiya putty for a fine texture effect. He looks like he works for a living, nice a gritty and fairly real, no shiny boy there!
“At this point, it’s a pretty boring Space Marine”… whilst showing something better than I’ve ever managed 😂 I’m going to try to figure out an equivalent approach for Dark Angels colours… anyone have any thoughts for good colours/paints/inks?
This video has really unlocked the power of oil paints for me. I was trying to use them like washes and found they didn't cover evenly on large flat surfaces. What I was missing was the techniques you used here, now that I have them....the power! Thanks for the video.
And just today I ordered a small number of oil paints with the plan to use them as washes and blacklining predominantly. Now my eyes are opened and I see I should have just ordered a whole lot more as the use of oils is unlimited. I can't wait to see what else you can do with them! Thanks so much Marco. Keep it up.
Wooow. Yes, yes, yes. Thank you Marco. Thank you very much. It's here. A different approach to paint a Space Marine. Ink and oils, and the combination is awesome. A new world to experiment and discover.
Hi Marco, I love the way you mix techniques with oil paints and acrylic paints. I want to see mor videos mixing this two techniques with oil paints. Thank you!!
So let me start by saying I was a little leary, but that is one amazing looking Space Marine! I don't know how I'd never seen that trick with the plastic cement and putty but it really made the ceramite armor look convincing. It really all hit another level though when you started playing around with the oil paints; you've convinced me I should start incorporating oil paints into more of my projects.
This! I love your approach to shadows and contrasts, but I can't, for the life of me, figure out what to do with 90% black models (Blood Angels Death Company in my case). One option is to make everything dinged / rusty / dirty / dusty, but the Blood Angels are described as one of the most aesthetic chapters taking pride in their beauty, which makes me want to keep weathering quite light and add interest with color contrasts between base tones and shadows. No idea, how to do that with black...
Absolutely amazing Marco! Once again proving why you are amongst my favourite painters on UA-cam. You have inspired me to start a project of one marine from every main chapter, all as realistic and weathered as possible 😊
You have blown my mind. I've already been experimenting with the oil washes and q tips and it has been a revelation. This technique will be fun to try. Thanks Marco
Clearly you made a huuuugggeeee progress over the years, not only in terms of the quality of the videos but painting technique as well. You are my top 1 YT master :)
Confusion at its best. Don't get me wrong, I mean it in the best way possible. What we see here is an effort to create so much noise to the point where one does not know if they are seeing shadows/battle damage/reflections etc, and that means more freedom = less stress. Well done, sir!
Good. God. Your videos are filled with practical techniques. I am torn between rewatching them to properly digest them or going on to the next to be further amazed!
Whenever I think I've seen all your tricks, you amaze me again with your next clever technique. I learn so incredibly much from you about how to think outside the box when painting, and how your techniques are dictated by one's subject matter. Thank you so much for your insights! Cheers, and keep it up!
Another awesome video ... I love the technique with the putty and glue .. think I'll give that a shot on my glaive-wraiths to make them look old and haggard :D - Thank you Marco :D
I've already watched this about 5 times. Definitely giving this a go as I've been meaning to paint some Fists for a few years but always found something to distract me from the horror of painting yellow armour! Keep up the good work, Marco. Discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago and it's fast become a favourite.
Haha practicing you techniques had me move from my typical painting and some Imperial Fists I was working on to really having fun painting some Death Guard. Now I'm going to have to go back to working on my Imperial Fists.
My dude, your videos are the best of all the miniature painter UA-camrs I subscribe to. Always super informative and you, more than any other UA-camr, have added tons of new tools and techniques to my arsenal. 10/10
Ok I'm sold! Picked up a 12 colour starter student oils set reduced to £3 at Hobbycraft and the quality is fine I use them a lot more subtly than you did on this figure - lack of confidence so far - but the effects are infinitely adjustable and with three colours transitions are the smoothest I've ever managed with any technique. I'm now genuinely speed painting an army of vampires and ghouls with ink colour blocking over Zenithal and then this to paint the unnatural flesh tones, tie it together with a couple of colours of oil paint washes and reveal the underlying colours with Qtips they look better than any of the test models I spent hours on with acrylics. Gamechanger
@@MarcoFrisoniNJM You're happy? You can imagine how happy I am, one day I'll get these smooth transitions with acrylic layering or glazing but right now I the bigger the area to tackle, the easier to blend, little bit of final highlighting, bit of subtle edge highlighting on hard panels (not something I do much of but it seems to accent this style nicely). You well deserve to be more widely viewed for this stuff, it's solid gold and the effects are totally achievable for anyone that pays attention
So glad you have this channel Marco. Getting back into painting after a 20 year hiatus, and you have given me tons of inspiration and great ideas to work with. Might be the accent, you are the Da Vinci of miniature painting! Keep up the good work!
I always remember that at the end of the day it’s all about Grim Dark. Heavy combat,lots of smoke,blood,fire,dirt and all the the other things that come with war. This is my ideal Space Marine. Thanks for putty coating idea 🙏
This is a brilliant, brilliant tutorial, Marco. Thank you so much for posting it. My only complaint would be that now I want to go back and re-paint all my old Space Marines using this technique!
A very, very good introduction into oils, damn you Marco first it was enamels, now its oil! You're like a fearless iconoclast destroying the prejudices of us wargamers have against anything non-acrylic!
Again this is next level of miniature painting. I am always inspired by your every video. if Caravaggio was painting space marines it would be like this
love it, hope black templars are next. I want to steal your black power armor skills for my inquisitor scale artemis model ive had in my closet for 20 years
Goodness. I wish I had discovered you sooner in my painting hobby. I've been watching your videos for 3 days and you are one of the first painters, of all the ones I've watched, alongside Sorastro, that has a distinct and powerful approach to technique at the level of making minis painting an art form.
Comming from a art background I always Hated acrylic due to the lack of control and volume it give while painting, and oil is according to me so much nicer (on canvas) and using them as washes, filter and for blending is a pure joy to see! great work :D
This is great stuff Marco. Love how you explain and highlight these techniques. I’ve been experimenting a little with oils but have grown bolder after watching your stuff. Plan to do a lot more with it in upcoming projects.
Ugh, I just found your channel and have been binge watching it. Your mixing colors to make your own black, with the black templar, awesome. Using the acrylic inks, glaze medium so the metal pigments don't separate, your at a insane higher level. Wet pallet!?!?! I'm trying to take notes, gonna have to make a huge run to the hobby shop. I'd love to see you repaint the bandai Ultra Marine.
For oil paints, the water miscible ones are really easiest to use in our hobby. I’m looking forward more oil videos: I recently started painting using exclusively Holbein Duo Aqua, and the results are really nice, even though the process is longer than when using a mix of acrylics and oils.
MarcoFrisoniNJM I honestly haven’t seen any difference in texture or behavior. Note however that I still use a medium to dilute - acetate and oil from Grumbacher, it gives a Matt finish - I don’t use straight water (the water is only for washing everything).
You should do a tutorial on advanced weathering, like chipping models, this texturing technique and probably a dozen others i dont know about (but you do! ) .
There are such a bunch of clever tricks and cleary explained (and seemingly rather easy to realize, at least when you are seen doing it…) in so few minutes in your videos in general, and on this video in particular...it’s just incredible, inspiring and pure delight to watch ! I wish I could put a million blue thumbs (I can at least make a donation =)...Keep going !
Knocked it out of the park again, Marco! Showing that relatively easy/quick techniques can achieve amazing results when done properly. Looking forward to seeing you use oils to achieve a clean look too *hint hint Bravo and grazie!
You continue to amaze man! Your videos are so great! Don't worry about getting lots of videos out quickly. These high quality demonstrations at a comfortable pace are all I could ask for.
Great video, thank you Marco! Every video is so full of things I never thought or heard of most of which could be a full video by themselves, not from Marco though. The texturing with putty, glazing dust, and blending oils (which my son calls oil-smashing.)
That's it. That's the last straw. I've got to get an airbrush. This is my favorite looking Imperial Fist I've ever seen and I've been planning on building some of them myself. I'm going to use this video as a guide.
I’m so excited to explore the opportunities of oil paints on my new Death Guard army!!!!! This technique will give me some cool “Nurgley” variations in color. Thanks, Marco! You rock, dude!!
This video is one of my favourites! So many cool oil paint techniques to try out! I think the oil-based blending techniques will be especially useful when you aren't using an airbrush for the intial basecoats! (i.e. if the initial gradient is just some sloppy "overbrushed" layers")
Were you an armor modeler at some point in life, because oil paints are ESSENTIAL for armor modeling. Dot-blending is a quintessential staple for making sure tanks don't look boring or too uniform when painting them, it's so great to see this being used in 40k!
I recently watched your Blanchitsu paint video after a friend recommended it. I painted 9 flesh eater courts Crypt Flayers using your method in about five hours and I'm incredibly happy with how they look. Thanks for all your awesome tips! (Also, please do Space wolves next!!!)
I painted 5 minis so far and have like 6 more on the backlog and not one of them is a simple space marine XD have to change that. Also you color scheme looks so awesome, like the bright hair with the darker skin
"This is a pretty boring Space Marine"
thats already better than anything ive done
😂😂😂
I was thinking the EXACT same thing after he said it. I'd be more than happy with "a pretty boring Space Marine".
well he's an imperial fist
I did a literal LOL when he said that. "Boring" is definitely relative to your skill level!

The oils can be very helpful, especially if you use them with flesh tones...the transitions are great with practice.
Blending with oils will be a revelation to you bud, they're amazing and dead easy to use unlike acrylics
You have really opened my mind to the world outside of the Games Workshop style of painting and building. Texturing the armour blew my mind!
I have never been so motivated or inspired by a tutorial before. Your openness and enthusiasm is hugely appreciated. Thank you, so so much!
I'd love to see you work on something that is supposed to be "pretty" like an elf.
Yes please! That would be great!
Perhaps the new high elves when they're released?
@@Scaggler I said pretty. BURN! Those things are dreadful!

😍 I need to see the WIP and can't wait for the final result 😍
As I get older and my eyesight is getting worse I find your technique with washes/ink/oilwashes very helpfull.

It's great to see more mini painters using the techniques common to armor, aircraft and gunpla. They can make some terrific realistic weathering
Thanks! I used to work a lot on gunpla (that's where the name of channel comes from!) and I have a passion fo tanks; painting all these different things at the same time the boundaries between the different modelling styles became blurry
complete, consise, and amazing. love your work.. and your approach well done sir.

Airbrush for alot of the base. It makes things alot easier. Thats the big one for me. If you havnt got one then its alot more difficult and time consuming.

You say it.
Go for it!!
Cheers from Italy!
Love the use of oils and acrylic... amazing
Before any paint is added the base color of the power armour with the putty alone looks great. I think you have figured out the solution to white.
Thank you for the idea with weathering the mini with glue and putty. I wanna make a "Rust Marine" one day and will remember that info!

Bravo Marco. A fantastic paint job and brilliantly explained techniques
This tutorial is gold. Good stuff Marco
Simply Amazing
For oil paints, the water miscible ones are really easiest to use in our hobby. I’m looking forward more oil videos: I recently started painting using exclusively Holbein Duo Aqua, and the results are really nice, even though the process is longer than when using a mix of acrylics and oils.
They are a good alternative but in general I prefer the properties of real oils and white spirit and how they move and blend over the acrylic layer
MarcoFrisoniNJM I honestly haven’t seen any difference in texture or behavior. Note however that I still use a medium to dilute - acetate and oil from Grumbacher, it gives a Matt finish - I don’t use straight water (the water is only for washing everything).
You should do a tutorial on advanced weathering, like chipping models, this texturing technique and probably a dozen others i dont know about (but you do! ) .
There are such a bunch of clever tricks and cleary explained (and seemingly rather easy to realize, at least when you are seen doing it…) in so few minutes in your videos in general, and on this video in particular...it’s just incredible, inspiring and pure delight to watch ! I wish I could put a million blue thumbs (I can at least make a donation =)...Keep going !
Thanks a million buddy!!! I have no words 😊 I hope I expressed better how much I appreciate this in the email 😉
Another great video Marco! Absolutely rammed full of game changing techniques! Thank you!
Knocked it out of the park again, Marco! Showing that relatively easy/quick techniques can achieve amazing results when done properly. Looking forward to seeing you use oils to achieve a clean look too *hint hint Bravo and grazie!

Amazing! More of this please!
Using putty to give texture is just BRILLIANT
Marco that was a fantastic tutorial for working in oils. thank you so much!
Just beautiful as alwasy my brother. Thank you for the video. ❤
Awesome work and great video as ever Marco!

I would love to see a Night Lord version of this. Truly a Legion deserving of Grim-Darkness if ever there was one.
Id love to see something like Iron Warriors or Guardians of the Covenant. The metallics in your grimdark style
I painted 5 minis so far and have like 6 more on the backlog and not one of them is a simple space marine XD have to change that. Also you color scheme looks so awesome, like the bright hair with the darker skin
Would love to see you do another space marine with a similar process but a much cleaner less weathered look.
Great techniques you can apply on any miniature! Awesome!
