  • I gave myself an entire week to just paint stuff from my backlog. No other requirements, just to get some of the Warhammer projects i've been wanting out of the way and to get some creative freedom!

    Your video about the number of unpainted models you had got me into taking a look around my own collection of unfinished stuff, and yeah too much as well. No whilst i don't have as much time to paint minis since it's a hobby next to my job i did get some work done as well.
    - 7 previously half built models are now fully built, comprising over 500 parts (partly due to a largeish gundam) assembled since your overview video
    - 1 mini is now fully painted (started at bare plastic)
    - 3 mini's are now almost fully painted (started at bare plastic)
    Thank you for the videos and the motivation they give me to keep working away at the "pile"

    I really enjoyed seeing that moon piece come together, and the way you started with the colors underneath was really informative. You can really just go hog wild a bit and then draw things together, especially on such a large piece. Thanks for sharing. I wish I could paint as well as you, in time, but I find it really hard to just sit and paint.

    I was an Undead player back in the 90's. Skeletons were easy. White primer, brown wash all over, dry brush with bleached bone and finish with black for eyes, white for teeth. Then weapons and shields. Individually they looked good but as a massive unit they were great

You could call it “Outlandish News with bill” so funny, my favourite part would be when you where shaking paint then went to the vortex all stone cold. Epic reality shot of the turmoils of mixing miniature paints. So relatable and reliable as always Emil. Please keep it up! I’d wait ten years to get a commission from you it’s worth the wait! Wish you still did them.

    Could you try to show the progress in painting a minature by 'timelapsing' the model? Maybe set it on a sheet of paper where camera and base are lined out and take a picture everytime you add a significant step. Maybe with a flash so the lighting stays the same. I think that would really show how your process works and makes for a great looking intermission :)

    Extremely impressed with the skeletons and mummies. But overall just at the seemingly low effort of painting those freehand green cobblestones. That would take me as much time as you used on the giant moon shrine, for 1 base.
