@@PeterResponsible it is old as world joke about teaching to paint. Usually it is used on visual meme where on step1 we have literally circles, and on step2 finished 5h drawing of owl. That means that in this video Lukas told us that this guide is ez, about basics, and yet deploying high level paintjob which novice painters obviously will struggle to copy.
Maybe it's just me, but I love Lukas vieos and Emil videos more than Lukas+Emil videos, when it's just one of the guys at a time it feels like they get to bring out their personality more thoroughly.

Hey guys! Long time watcher and lurker, first time commenter, just wanted to say that having the color you're using in the moment pop up on the left hand side of the screen while painting is fantastic. Hope you can continue that in other painting segments in the future
This video convinced me to get the Skaven half of the Skaventide box. I was kind of unsure since I don't really know anyone who plays AoS, but I thought, might as well make it an art project then!
love this so much. actual good information packaged in a format not targeted at absolute beginners while still being useful for beginners (imo). with not being targeted at absolute beginners I mean not adding the usual "I add two thin coats of paint to give the mini a consistent coverage" fluff.
My favourite type of videos that you guys do, your style has completely changed my approach and made me a better painter. Appreciate you guys, keep the videos coming.
So yeah the paiting quality is great, but I was actually more impressed by all the thinking that went into the highlights, color choice, color position etc, it was really cool to get an insight into it
Great simple guide Lucas! Only thing to really call out is how much practice is needed to get the brush control you talk about, and how much practice it takes to place the highlights convincingly. They aren't *difficult* skills to develop, but they do take time to develop.
This is why we all need to paint more mini's! or was that another youtuber 🙂 But its true the more we all paint the better we get, even if we don't think so ourselves, we are always our harshest critics.
Fellas. Proper painting videos two weeks in a row. You are spoiling us. More please. I personally prefer blending but I paint for display not armies and I love the Squidmar approach for bold contrast. The punchy colours, bold contrast and value jumps certainly grab attention (especially from a distance). No one way of painting is right. (Now get blending 😉)
Thanks for the great video! It has helped me improve my own painting. I noticed when you placed the highlights (at the right locations) that you didn’t just cover the whole spot, but instead painted some “brush strokes patterns”. This made the highlights not only more noticeable, but interesting to look at, like some texture. Could you perhaps in one of your future videos go into more detail about this and explain when to use what brush strokes? Thanks a bunch!
I ordered the paint set last week, then randomly this Skaventide set popped up in a local auction, and I won it all in $95. Now, if Harder & Steenbeck would just ship my paints.
So I'm getting ready to paint my space marine homebrew chapter and a majority of their armor will be a bone color similar to deathwing armor. Every tutorial I've found uses washes and I've tried them but there is just so little control! Would love to see you guys tackle deathwing or bone armor on space marines using this contrasting highlights approach. I'm considering basecoating with a dark brown and then working up the highlights like you talked about here but it can be really tough on the often smooth featureless surface of space marine armor.
I've love to see you try your hands at some Lamenters. I've literally never seen a single photo or video of a miniature painted in their chapter colors where the checkerboard and logo on their shoulder isn't a wonky mess.
First and most importantly: Lukas I love your unique style! Second: showing the used paints is a huge improvement for nOObs like me! Another great video from the squidmar team. I’m not sure if the community agrees, but I’d love to see a video introducing the whole squidmar team.
Really enjoyed this Lukas. You guys are refreshing when it comes to painting as even I feel I could follow what you are doing!!! Great video with some fun moments which helps. You guys are possibly my favourite figure painters with Ninjon a close second.👍👍😉
Great video. I’m excited to start my Skaven army too. What about a video on getting all those clan rats done - getting a balance between quality and speed? Maybe how to use an airbrush effectively when army painting?
As always another great video. Lukas, you nailed it. I’m excited for this set and look forward to seeing you guys paint more of it. As for the how to…..I tried to do more advanced techniques before I got good at the basics. Walk before I run is hard for me to do. I want to be that good now 😂
Great painting as always!, Also I hope the new models that come after this boxset for both the Stormcast and Skaven arn't just more boring hero's, and are monsters, dragons, battline units, and elite units like the newer giant-er rat ogre thing (can't remember the name), im already disappointed we got yet another hero revealed (the one with wings), like Gw just give us some dracontith battline units like Tempesters but have wings and no riders and come as a unit of 3!!!!! THAT WOULD BE AWESOME, MORE DRACONITH UNITS!!!
I like the nonchalance of the tone, despite the super clear tutorial. Well done, Mr. Lukas, well done. How many cookies for this work, by the way? Chocolate cookies, I hope.
Along with all the Warhammer stuff, it would be cool to do paint and showcase of 3D printable collections. Ideally ones that don't infringe on copyright and have their own unique style. Or just other Company products in general.
This is one of the best painting guides I've seen. I do enjoy the more opinionated Squidmar content too and the amazing results that produces, but I want my own minis to look "home amazing" (without spending days on it) as opposed to "competition amazing". I think there's a big gap in the content market for that stuff (i.e. "home amazing", which is better than "table ready" and worse than "competition amazing", the latter two being the majority of content that I see)
My eyes are hyper cooked so I will just paint bravely and put my favorite colors next to each other and see what it looks like thank you Squidmar team!
Sweet job got a quick question hilghlights on tyranids… specifically the paint style I chose to go with… I have no idea though how to send pics of my nids though
not a criticism, just a thought: i think maybe going for a darker grey fur tone and using the texture technique to add aging grey hairs in certain areas could've given an interesting detail of how old and battled the rat is.
Okay got it:
Step 1: Draw 2 circles
Step 2: Draw the rest of the owl
I understood that reference!
Easy peasy. Especially when thge owl looks back at you with the glowing eyes
@@McGoughable Explain please, I did not :)

yeah. no hate to squidmar but these painting guide videos are genuinely useless
Emil crying out "You are wrong!" was so hilarious. Loved the grand reveal :)

That's actually a sharp buut clever comment!
I like the way they bounce off each other when they’re in videos together! They’ve got great banter.
And it’s a lot less UA-cam zoomer memes/cuts in the solo videos
Closer to Emils original videos!
I think there great together and apart

Painting the best faction in all of Age of Sigmar yes, yes!
I would even say the best faction from all warhammer in general including 40k
Yes yes agree agree

@@bocktordaytona5656 I agree! Long live the horned rat!
Muder lord will be happy-pleased with your devotion!
Congratulations on your upcoming paint line. A very nice pat on the back. You guys deserve it. Your opinion means a lot to us.
Absolutely love that you clearly showed the paints used, thank you.
This video convinced me to get the Skaven half of the Skaventide box. I was kind of unsure since I don't really know anyone who plays AoS, but I thought, might as well make it an art project then!
Well done Lucas. One thing I liked about this video is that you've shown every color you used in each step. It's something easy to follow for us.

Thank you! Finally a pure painting video. Keep em comming :)
"Automagically" 😁 that's gonna be my new fav word!

The skin of the Skaven looks so grose - I love it! Skaven could be a new army for me. Ty for the video!
I love these types of videos, definitly want em regularly!

I love all your videos but this one is My favourite video so far because it was very technical and had some real substance to it.
Awesome tutorial. An absolute gem for me and my beginner journey that just started. Thanks so much
Love that you guys have which paints were used in the corner
Excellent change up on the video style
Lots of hints of upcoming releases !!
I'd love to see Lukas do a plague marine I find the details can be overloading to a painter and be nice to see his approach for a newbie 🤘
Great paintjob, the model really works well with your painting style.
Goes without saying, you make painting look easy! Very skilled 😊

Great tutorial . The " Don't Blend " is a great advice.
So I'm getting ready to paint my space marine homebrew chapter and a majority of their armor will be a bone color similar to deathwing armor.

Lucas slowly became one of my favorite f**king painter of all time. F**king love this vid.
I've love to see you try your hands at some Lamenters. I've literally never seen a single photo or video of a miniature painted in their chapter colors where the checkerboard and logo on their shoulder isn't a wonky mess.
We want more Luca's paint tutorials like this please !!!
Really love these practical "how to paint" videos.

Lukas! You are the man! Another fantastic paint job and awesome video. Thank you both for all the inspiration you provide!
Really loving these more painting focused videos.
Great video, can't wait to see who paints the new stormcasts.
more skaven please!! I want a bit more colour in mine vs the grim dark look and yours is a decent balance
Really enjoyed this Lukas. You guys are refreshing when it comes to painting as even I feel I could follow what you are doing!!! Great video with some fun moments which helps. You guys are possibly my favourite figure painters with Ninjon a close second.👍👍😉
This is superb. Skaven have always been my favorite, and this is just a wonderful thing to see. Love it love it love it!
Great video. I’m excited to start my Skaven army too. What about a video on getting all those clan rats done - getting a balance between quality and speed? Maybe how to use an airbrush effectively when army painting?
Even with those drastic highlights, it's still very smooth. How?!?!?!
5:20 ish - the taught process
Details are the greatest thing in the business
The suspense is killing me, reveal your vallejo collab secrets now!
The incredibly upsetting disinformation contained in the evil "near future" words is insufferable!
Awesome work Lukas. I love your style of painting!
Sensational video. Very helpful to hobbiests of all skill levels. Thank you!
One of the best "how to paint" videos I've seen
Really like the color choices, Lukas!
Very cool format of video. It's good when you start 😊.
I really like Luka's painting tutorial
Loved the video! Hope to see more of this army getting done!
just found the Skaventide box on sale post-Christmas… queue the shipping countdown
As always another great video. Lukas, you nailed it. I’m excited for this set and look forward to seeing you guys paint more of it. As for the how to…..I tried to do more advanced techniques before I got good at the basics. Walk before I run is hard for me to do. I want to be that good now 😂
great video! really like the paint colors in the corner
feel bad for steve though, getting called out like that :D
That is f*ckin amazing painted mini, You and Emil are both GOATs!!
More of this please! 👍If you really bring your own Paint Range some Day. I hope they won't be that expensive as Two Thin Coates Paints. 😉
Love how you split screen the sponsor and content. I watched thru that instead of skipping forward.
Need more of these vids , amazing work
That blending thip might be the best painting advice that I've ever heard
Amaizing paintjob!!
Thanks for all the tips and ideas!
Great painting as always!, Also I hope the new models that come after this boxset for both the Stormcast and Skaven arn't just more boring hero's, and are monsters, dragons, battline units, and elite units like the newer giant-er rat ogre thing (can't remember the name), im already disappointed we got yet another hero revealed (the one with wings), like Gw just give us some dracontith battline units like Tempesters but have wings and no riders and come as a unit of 3!!!!!

this isnt out till the end of july some time , so its a long wait but worth it
Cookies for you! 🍪 well done. Good tutorial. And I enjoyed your humor.
Amazing work, love the colours! Do you have a video, or more pics of your Skittershank's Clawpack?

This is fantastic, can I aks that you do something like this vid but on a unit maybe 10+ and focus on the pitfalls that you have to work past.
What a skittering beauty
My eyes are hyper cooked so I will just paint bravely and put my favorite colors next to each other and see what it looks like thank you Squidmar team!
You have received one of my ultra rare likes for this one. Keep it up, great video!
Ps: Tuft beast, go!
Contrast has always been a problem for me...I am always too subtle and need to finally force myself to make more drastic jumps when Highlighting.
Love it. Love an Emil tutorial
More videos like this please, love
It!
I like the approach... not sure I can do this but I will try and most possibly fail.... lol
"first im making a mix of 3 paints for the skin" *closes window*
Incredible work ! Nice video !
Lukas is the GOAT 🙌🏿
What a great video! Thanks so much!
Sweet job got a quick question hilghlights on tyranids… specifically the paint style I chose to go with… I have no idea though how to send pics of my nids though
That was quite the 3 color mix to basically end up with bugman's glow
Damn you've killed it with this tutorial
Ah mate this video was fantastic, nice one
Hell yes, Lucas episode.
Lukas is awesome !!
Hello ! Where you have find the little paper with the indication about what is the mix for do a wash/edge etc ? Is so cool
Really enjoyed this one!
6:30 that is castle corridoor from castlevania aria of sorrow in a 60's rockabilly/blues style?
not a criticism, just a thought: i think maybe going for a darker grey fur tone and using the texture technique to add aging grey hairs in certain areas could've given an interesting detail of how old and battled the rat is.

"In no time" he said. 100 clanrats in my backlog (+ the new ones). That will require time, I can assure you!
