@Zane Colby I hope you realize it’s a scam. You can link things in comments and I’ve seen the exact comment on another video a little while ago with a different name
Just gave the "flicking paint with a toothbrush" method a try. Really surprised me how well it worked. Considering they are human-proportion modern soldiers, I could never have replicated that with a brush. Completed them in minutes. The foam chunk method is next. Thanks for the motivation.
Personally, I think it could have done with a more muted blue. Something to take the brightness down a notch, and let the vibrancy of the armor do the work.
The sponge technique works well for camo because it creates random enough patterns to mimic the random patterns in most camo patterns - and is a really good proxy for digi-cam.
First of all, Thank you for showing my Luke! A couple years ago, I'd helped my daughter with her Eldar Flier (can't remember the name). She was all bummed that the paint skill didn't transfer genetically, so I showed her a few tricks including a combination of the Speckle and Sponge techniques used here. Looked great, and I'll try to find it to show off lol
Sadly I cannot find it 😪 It was pretty cool, she used a few complimentary colors and a wadded paper towel... But that model is lost to time - she was 12, and now she's 20. It might turn up.
I love your videos so much. The rate at which they come out and the quality is nuts! You've also inspired me to go for it on painting rather than seeking perfection. Keep up the great work!
FINALLY SOMEONE CONFIRMED IT! I have been saying death guard green base paint is super bad. For longest time I thought it was in my head. It took closer to 5 coats on my grots to get good basecolor
I don’t have an air brush so for my dark angels I 1) prime black 2) over brush dark green 3) lightly over brush medium green 4) dry brush bright green 4) green shade the whole model. Each step I focus a little more on highly info from above. It works great for me as somewhat a beginner
I've recently started painting, and hearing that someone else talk about the 'ass phase' genuinely helps me feel so much better. That phase seriously almost killed my enthusiasm.
Loved the video! The firt 2 technics seems to work great for dirty and gritty miniatures, like instant heavy weathering. The third looks great for bright and clean minis.
Those schemes were amazing. I will totally try the splatter one on my nighthaunts, and the camo technique will totally work for my wood elves autumn cloaks! Huge thanks!
This Space Marine is awesome. Now I want to redo my whole army the same way. And I really like the wraith coat. The technique for the stormcast is great, but he is too flashy for me.
That marine turned out nice! I think I may try this in a more urban camouflage scheme for my alway growing but rarely painted guard army. This looks fun and just the thing for like 200 guys
Just want to say, the first way to paint is actually EXACTLY what I need for my custom Tau scheme. Was wondering how to make this "little dot" effect. Now, I know :D
I bought a 3 pack of revel tweezers, this came with reverse tweezers that are perfect for stippling with a sponge. no need for the band and it open with pressure applied. the stippled camo-marine looked awesome BTW.
Jay: "Magic Blue is the brightest blue ever!" Fluo paints: "Allow us to introduce ourselves" :P Great experiment and interesting results! I hadn't considered doing zenithal in colors other than black and white, this deserves some testing, recently saw some ghosts painted with fluos and now i think that a version of this scheme with purples and blues might look great, must test it. Also the other methods look far better than you'd expect with the techniques involved, definitely something to apply!
I've tried to make a camopattern for my bolt action fallschrimjäger by basecoating them with a kind of zandri dust tone, then aplying random patches of dark green and medium brown, leaving about 50% of the zandri dust showing. Then I took a toothpick to apply littel dots with different colors. The zandridust and darkgreen dots in the brown patches and zandridust and brown dots in the green patches. The toothpick created evenly sized dots for a better result. The result looked like a "hinterhalt-tarnung".
I like using feathering style techniques on horns and stuff. you apple some paint, and then pull the paint down into another colour further down the horn (with a damp brush) it's quite easy to become proficient at, and it's gives you a quick blend. also it's a one way blend, these work better on horns IMO (I paint a lot of chaos)
Really like how the camo scheme turned out. I believe the green is called refractive not reflective, but tomato nuke I guess. The 2 tone might look better by varying the angle slightly like 45 top front to 45 down rear, but that's an experiment for another day.
I’m currently using the zenithal scheme for my Tyranids I’m only doing one termagaunt right now to test it and refine my method. It’s turning out great so far
That storm cast fella looks like he’s wearing the hot wheels colors. Super cool. I think all of the things you did add texture at the 28mm scale. I might use those ideas for the cloth on some of my minis.

I liked panel lining with a pen, never thought about using a brush tip pen for that
Part of why camo ghost pops is you (maybe unintentionally?) did some smart color theory things. Green and red are complimentary. Opposite ends of the color spectrum. And because you did more of a pink than a red, it avoids that Christmas feel. It just draws the eye.
Wow, that sponge camo marine is awesome. And Death guard green truly is an awlful paint. I wonder if there are good vallejo alternatives to that and Castellan green?
I test on sprues, come at me! XD Honestly, all I can say is wow, I love those schemes and the techniques are awesome! Definitely worth a try EDIT: What pen brush did you use?
100% agree. experimemt and paint thimgs outside your comfort zone. painted orks for 10 years. for 3 years now i painted everything. undead. monsters. human. elf. dwarfs. I grown so much better these 3 years.
I liked the zenithal stormcast, think the glaivewraith was interesting but hated the color scheme, and think that sponging a whole army of space marines might be a pain in the ass
I just brought an airbrush for $15 and a 2nd hand make up/cake decorating compressor for $20 and just went wild on a Imperial knight Valiant the same day I got it through the post with no idea what I was doing and never used an airbrush before, the results are on my Instagram airbrush.cowboy it's not actually that bad for a first time 1 day paint job. I don't like drybrushing and washing so it's all airbrush shadows and highlights apart from some thinned oil paint used on the metals for a sort of rusty wash.
Fun video! For some unusual for 40k/Age of Sigmar color schemes here's some fun ones. From the 40k Badcast podcast, one of the hosts used a mountain dew label as a color scheme for a Blood Bowl team. Another one is stealing from sportsball teams, look at professional + college sports team colors as fun color schemes.
Mr. Eons, did you play Heroscape at all? They are relaunching but the miniatures will be unpainted like the OG version. I wonder if you could do a tutorial on how to paint these new minis to match the OG models.
The glave wraith was sick except for the blue skin I think a more whispy white and grey would have looked sick also the red terrain kinda cooked how spooky the cloak came out
Well to be honest I will take 2 of the methods to paint the Primaris for my son. Thats the sprinkle and sponging. The sprinkle on the coats (like the snipers have) or similar gives a more believeabel camoflage. And the sponging is better than stippling with a cuetip. The combination should bring out the paintjob my son wanted. (that reminds me I should have some pictures of the first 2 finished models and his first painted model aswell)
The nighthaunt is cool but my brain wants to see a camouflage cloak. Would love to see that style on a sniper mini or something. You can make ghillie blankets with gauze and blue btw
with the spatter pattern you unintentionally made flaktarn haha
The sponge job gives me an idea for a guard scheme.
I use a sponge job on all my guard vehicles for a winter camo look and it works wonders
same here for some marines. think make-up sponges will be ok

glad it helped!
How did the foam method turn out?

The PP break was worth praise in the comments.
that mcdonalds stormcast is fugging amazing. also, the luke skywalker in the community paintjobs was damn good also.

Agreed! I use the sponge camo technique when I custom paint mega construx halo marine figures.
I loved the stormcast method. Feels like the first steps towards doing a really simple NMM

really love what this channel has become, keep the stuff comming!

FINALLY SOMEONE CONFIRMED IT! I have been saying death guard green base paint is super bad. For longest time I thought it was in my head. It took closer to 5 coats on my grots to get good basecolor
I barely add water to that color
I use the death guard green spray primer, the pot one I just use to clean up after washes.

the first model turned out to be a really good Camo! love it
Good to know I'm not the only one obsessed with black rimm bases feel it gives such a finished look been doing that for 25 years
Painting the 'victory lap' is so satisfying. It's like saying 'I deem this paint job - complete!'
Yes
7:59
is that just a Camouflage primaris marine or is it supposed to be a Raptor space marine
Best 40k channel, hands down!
Great little hack about using the rubber band on the tweezers! Nice experimentarion all around!
Love the toothbrush effect
I could see this used for camo/the underneath of a ghillie suit
I've recently started painting, and hearing that someone else talk about the 'ass phase' genuinely helps me feel so much better. That phase seriously almost killed my enthusiasm.
Those glaivewraith stalkers!!! Just wow!
Awesome ideas
Loved the video! The firt 2 technics seems to work great for dirty and gritty miniatures, like instant heavy weathering. The third looks great for bright and clean minis.
That sponge use. Perfect
That paint scheme on the first morel is EFFECTIVE! Good job. Glad youre also using a hobby holder this time too haha

These models turned out great! I like them all!
I love what you did with that stormcast! i wonder if i could pull that off with my sequitors, since that have all that extra cloth.
I have some storm cast that I got as a painting project. Might consider doing a similar paint scheme for them
That zenithol one was amazing, I gotta try that. And I think I just found my space marine color scheme.
This was great! Would love to see more
Could you show us how to do a desert and snow camo with the sponging technique

Splattered was amazing I’m going to try that when I get a few minis
Those were some really successful ideas!
Either homeboy is the hardest working man on UA-cam or he has a sickness…. Maybe both…. But he really is ALWAYS WORKING. Dude it’s nuts

Those crons look incredible
Wow, that sponge camo marine is awesome. And Death guard green truly is an awlful paint. I wonder if there are good vallejo alternatives to that and Castellan green?
there must be, usually, GW base colors are decent but that one is just poopy
Cool vid thanks for the tips.
Some of the first few models I painted i had painted with spray cans. Perfect for the traditional military vibe
The kashyyk marine looks Awesome!!
Yes, my necron overlord was shown
it was really cool! good work
that camo space marine really takes the cake!
"Or are the Space Marines the bad guys?" *STARES IN HERESY*
I test on sprues, come at me! XD
Honestly, all I can say is wow, I love those schemes and the techniques are awesome! Definitely worth a try
EDIT: What pen brush did you use?
I reccomrnd trying Dspiae. Just remember to topcoat
Excellent !
I testet out the space marine technik but with blue tones, it looks really cool.
The first reasonable marine painting tutorial
really like the sponging camo technique, what type of sponge do you use?, it looks more coarse (rough) than a standard kitchen sponge....
Hey.. i love yur videos and trying to became up to date with them :)
may I ask which pen is that you use while sponging ?
100% agree. experimemt and paint thimgs outside your comfort zone. painted orks for 10 years. for 3 years now i painted everything. undead. monsters. human. elf. dwarfs. I grown so much better these 3 years.
The speckle texture kinda looks like MARPAT camouflage, but done at scale. Which is really good for being randomly done and accidental.
Stormcast was the best, great video
Dude what was that pen you used?
it was a Tombow Dual Brush Pen Art Marker, N45 - Cool Gray. I bought it in a set of gray pens.
Where is the weird blue Tau girl at 1:32 from?
Awsooooome!!🤩🤩🤩you are PRO Bro!😃😃😃
Man..... These look sick 😬
Oh man what is that pen you used for the space marine? That looks so awesome and fast!

Great work on the marine like a lot of people where What Brush Pen You Use ?
I feel like the speckled cloak made a very convincing camouflage pattern... like better than the sponge version.
Reminds me of WWII flecktarn pattern
Have you ever base coat with a zenithal rattle can? I thought about doing a zenithal for my white armored marines but not sure how that would work.
Mr. Eons, did you play Heroscape at all? They are relaunching but the miniatures will be unpainted like the OG version. I wonder if you could do a tutorial on how to paint these new minis to match the OG models.
My skills are medicore at best but I got no fear In grabbing my models and saying let's paint. I've been getting better.
Pretty much the only way.
That Glaivewraith, ooft!
I am 100% going to try the sponing on my eliminator cloaks
Finally a Space Marine who looks like a soldier.
The speckle technique looked super duper pooper at the beginning but the washes and other colors on the model brought it all together. Nice job!
what mini is that at 1:10?
The glave wraith was sick except for the blue skin I think a more whispy white and grey would have looked sick also the red terrain kinda cooked how spooky the cloak came out
What was that pen you used for panel lining, ty
