thanks to 3D printing the promise of wargaming from 20 years ago is finally being fulfilled. The fact that a little company like OPR is putting out better looking lizards than GW is mindblowing and heartwarming all at once.
Actually he choose the most complicated approach to think of. I get the "don't use piles of gear". But even without special gear like an airbrush, you can paint waaaay simpler and getting a better result.
Love One Page Rules - please; more more more content supporting One Page Rules; I'd love to see a crazy ass OPR board or terrain; hell I would buy OPR supplements from Geek Gaming Scenics if you sold them like a limited edition bag of base ready themed for each army
We basically only play OPR right now and I got one of my mates to use the NZ base ready mix as well. OPR Firefight and 10mm regiments is a match made in heaven for base ready material... shelled out a complete Khemri army in next to no time!
As someone who never got into contrast or speed paints and barely ever use my airbrush for anything other than priming this is basically how I do all my painting. And yes it actually does indeed take me about 200 hours to paint an army,thank you for asking.
@@nightingale4632 I used to do that but then got spraycan, not as annoying to do but I want to try airbrushing it at some point. Still do the rest by hand though and with bigger models. Don't have the eyes for minis anymore I hate it.
I've must of been watching luke from the start of his UA-cam and I must say you level of editing and levels of composition colour grading within the videos as just getting better and better and the quality of the videos has become better than I would ever believe you are truly a inspiration to this community and the great rival to all the other UA-cam channels thank you for taking the time at your day to always make this community great
One page rules seems to becoming the go to war gaming hobby, due to the simplicity and ease of preparing an army. Hell yeah, I'd love to see a battle report, bring it on.
I'd like to see you guys bang out some One Page Rules sessions. I've been thinking about getting into wargaming for a while and OPR is what I figured I'd go for. I don't know anybody who plays, so it would be me leading the charge with some friends and it would really help watching somebody who knows what they are doing play through.
One Page Rules have some gorgeous lizardmen minis, I enjoyed watching you paint your skink and would really like to see how your lizardmen army grows, the table you build, and watch it go to war in some games. Nice to see you enjoying painting. I dont have an airbrush just a few brushes, I find the experience of painting can be theraputic, escapism, calming, and a real pleasure especially when you find a groove and that autopilot magic happens. For me its Skaven, I love to paint those wonderful weird models.
Glad to see another brush licker, I`ve been doing just that ever since I started out painting way back in the late 80`s with crappy brushes and few paints, drives the family mad..!
That's a really nice skink dude, can't wait to see the vibrant colours you choose on the others (barbie pink is my personal favourite colour). it's good to see you take some time and paint a mini with the same attention you give scenic stuff, you've spent so long saying your not good and not trying that I bet you probably even surprised yourself with how good it turned out. Keep it up brother, you'll have a fully painted dope ass skink army in no time :)
I've been over complicating my painting recently and worrying about techniques and styles and not been enjoying the journey. This was a great help thank you 😊
I recently went through the same phase. "Back to basics". I did simple basing techniques and regular paints on my latest KoW army and it was really nice to skip the airbrushing, resin printed bases, and painting in between the lines with Contrast. Very refreshing to prime black, and have it be OK if the base coat is a mess
It hilarious that both you and Josh say in your videos that you both agreed you can’t do Lizardmen but you’ve both done Lizardmen! Haha. Nice coordination. Can’t wait for the battle report.
I love onepagerules so much I could cry been a patreon for 4 months and my STL library stonks, My favourite model so far is the beast men cyclops that looks like the one from Dragons Dogma!
THANK YOU so much for this video :-) I am sick and tired of other people going on about airbrushing base primers/zenithal highlights and so much more, that I have now unsubscribed to many of their channels, as they just make me feel like the past 50 years of my figure painting hobby, and all I learned using basic brushes/paints and so much more, were wasted unless I use an airbrush and expensive Channel owned products. I LOVE simple, one page rules games, as my memory can't upload another 500 page rule book, followed by a 200 page codex, a card set and whatever else game manufactures expect us to buy today, just to play a simple skirmish level game, let alone a huge, massive battle using all my and my opponent's minis/terrain. Love your simple colour scheme, which really makes this lizard man stand out in the end :-) Sometimes, less truly is more, and the simpler the techniques/equipment, with a little skill thrown in, can result in some stand-out minis for you to play with :-D
My thoughts exactly. I recently picked up Warcry as an entry back into the hobby; simple rules, quick set up, easy to teach, small model count, etc. But fook me GW haven't half made a mess of being able to get the rules to actually play the game. I've had to research and buy so many additional products to get the info I need. I wouldn't be so frustrated if at least the books were full of cool artwork and inspiring photos. I can't even identify what a model looks like as they only put a photo of the miniature's face on the "fighter cards" and don't caption the scenic photos anymore. I'd love to just Oldhammer my way into the hobby, but haven't got the time nor can I bring myself to spend the insane amounts of money needed (as if modern minis aren't expensive enough as it is).
Loving One Page Rules Saurian army. The lizardmen from GW haven't had an update in a long time, and they look goofy compared to the artwork in the Codex's and in more recent designs like Total War: Warhammer II. The Kroxigors and Saurus warriors (Saurian Gators and Warriors) look amazing, and look a lot closer to the incredible designs for TW:WHII. It's been a long time since I've been into the hobby, but this definitely makes me want to dip my toes back in, even if it's just to paint some of these models rather than play.
I've always started with a character model because they tend to be the most detailed so I always saw that getting a more complex model done first helps planning for the rank and file. I've also started limiting myself down with colour choices and mixing as much as possible because sometimes its really easy to run away with youself and before you know it you've got 20 different paints out and use 15 of them for tiny details (Slight exaggeration but I'm sure you all get the point)
I like the focus of this video. Not everyone wants to paint amazing works of art and even if you do, you don't have to do it all the time. Not every mini has to be super-try-hard, it's okay to just paint to an adequate standard for the tabletop.
Why do we do it to ourselves in creating these issues of having the best painted army all the time!!! I enjoy being reminded just to have fun. Looking forward to the game. Thanks Luke👍😉
Loved the vid, LOVE the paint job (I think you're a much better painter than you give yourself credit. I've been super inspired by your mini paint jobs in the past, not even going into how inspiring the terrain content has been haha) and DEFINITELY would love to see some more One Page Rules content! They've been putting out killer content after killer content and I would be thoroughly down to see you play some lol. Thanks again for your content and time, and have a good one!
Bach in the day i hated Lizardmen...then GW done an article (When WD was good ) about scratch building LM terrain with foam..OH MY !..Then i loved em for ever more.
Love it, i started out with the saurian army a few months ago after deciding I needed a fresh start and a new perspective on painting. All my models sort of looked the same in a boring way. Loads of details, lots of weathering and too much time. I've switched it up to my own colour schemes, bright colours and no washes. 80's hot pink, purples and blues mixed with a stylised cel-shade style. I'm enjoying this so much more. I'm glad your getting back to your happy place too!
As a beginner painter and never played a tabletop game, I really liked this video. I would like to see more videos on one page rules and one on how to play it. I have printed a few of their freebie models and really like them. Great video so keep it up.
The one page rules Suarians have been why I subbed to thier Patreon like a year and a half ago or more, around when black magic craft was sponsored by them. They are beautiful sculpts. Need to re set up my printer to make more.
One page rules one page rules one page rules, rules! Ive been a patron of them since aoct last year and of all the other subscriptions Ive had and left One page rules as always stayed. Their minis are awesome and there rules so simple but so smooth. Im gonna be a life long supporter if them and Luke yea live to see you guys play some OPR games.
As usual, great video... I thought I should add that your camera work and editing are great, really professional product... and ur painting was good to 😅🤣😂. Its been a great journey watching you grow through the years Luke!!! Thank you for ur efforts.
That's a pretty model 🙂 I really enjoy doing this now and again, particularly when coming off a big batch project. Just going back and painting up a fun model with just acrylics and brush. It's just a nice relaxing time.
Just now watching this video, but I would LOVE to see a OPR game from you guys! You and OPR have made a hobby which i previously felt was completely unapproachable to something actually accessible.
This was a great video…..I like the entire approach of keeping it simple, while using some of the basic guidelines on color schemes and complementary colors. As always, very enjoyable and many thanks for your time and help!
I can't really paint anymore, so I am used to sprue-grey, but I am going to have to give these tips a try. It may end up looking like a blended Easter Egg, but that could look neat...
@@johnathanrhoades7751 Oh don't worry, I am sure you have a long time to enjoy. I had bad health and also got hurt, so everything was sped up. But hey, it is not really losing a skill, you can adjust otherwise. For me, the mini-hobby was converting and constructing / lore building vs painting or playing. I can spend weeks creating new units and terrain and it goes right to the shelf. Now? I am learning Blender and 3D printing to keep creating.
Good tips dude, and the idea of simplifying mini painting is a good one. There's so many techniques and products out there, that it can be a little daunting when thinking of what ones to use - I feel for people who are new to the hobby!
thanks to 3D printing the promise of wargaming from 20 years ago is finally being fulfilled. The fact that a little company like OPR is putting out better looking lizards than GW is mindblowing and heartwarming all at once.
Love this back to basic stuff. Painting doesn't have to be a complicated nightmare with piles of gear and overwhelming concepts. Keep it simple! 😁
Actually he choose the most complicated approach to think of. I get the "don't use piles of gear". But even without special gear like an airbrush, you can paint waaaay simpler and getting a better result.
Yes, would definitely like to see a game of One Page Rules. I've enjoyed my limited experience with the system.

And yes it actually does indeed take me about 200 hours to paint an army,thank you for asking.
I dont even use airbrush or spraycan to prime. I just find it boring. Way more relaxing for me to brush prime.
@@nightingale4632 I used to do that but then got spraycan, not as annoying to do but I want to try airbrushing it at some point. Still do the rest by hand though and with bigger models. Don't have the eyes for minis anymore I hate it.
@@Arcanua i hate spraycans. They annoy me and i can never get an even coat. Priming by brush takes me less than a min per model anyway.
I love the "doesn't need to look beautiful, just have fun with it" approach
I love that your "half decent standard" is what I'd consider an amazing job.
This piacular mini is really making the rounds on UA-cam, I guess it show how cool this guy is. Beautiful paint job as well!
I've must of been watching luke from the start of his UA-cam and I must say you level of editing and levels of composition colour grading within the videos as just getting better and better and the quality of the videos has become better than I would ever believe you are truly a inspiration to this community and the great rival to all the other UA-cam channels thank you for taking the time at your day to always make this community great
Thanks very much for the kind words! Definitely still learning, just happy there wasn’t a drop in quality when I took over filming and editing
Loving the OPR themed stuff, helps a ton with inspiration whenever I get round to printing off the saurians
I'd super love to see more One Page Rules bat reps!
I can furiously recommend OPR's Grimdark Future. I haven't had this much fun playing 40k this the 00's.
I would love to see the Mummified Undead. I just picked them up and once I finish my current project I'm starting on them
A OPR game and board video would be sick
Yes please!! Build a table and do a battle report!!! Amazing.
One page rules seems to becoming the go to war gaming hobby, due to the simplicity and ease of preparing an army. Hell yeah, I'd love to see a battle report, bring it on.
I appreciate the love for OnePageRules

Upvoted purely for the shirt. Love your stuff, it always seems more down to earth and approachable than some of the other stuff on here.
Please do more of One Pages Rules! It would be great to see you playing it, cheers brother!
110% would love to see a game of OPR with you both
Great video Luke, love the tee too! "Come in, have a cuppa tea, meet the Mrs" Epic!

glad to see you've come over to the proacryl side..
I can't wait to watch you guys play one page rules!!
Funny coincidence I'm also making some OPR lizardmen.

ONE PAGE RULES FTW! Please do a battle report!
Yaas, more OPR content please!! Nice skink btw
I have just done 2 thin coats and some washes with a quick highlight on some models and they look ace.
Jungle city board sounds like fun times. All the better to blend the chameleon skins into.
Great work on the miniature... i have to say I love Patchy plains ...I use it all the time.
OPR rules! Can't wait for the Space Lizards for GDF!

Cool miniatures and paint work is amazing too.
Yes some game play and terrain for OPR would be great.
Would love to see a game!
Luke them figure look mint, even better after paint. I'm one of those people who over does the paint.
Triadic or tetriadic colours work well if you need 3 or 4 colours too. Love to see some 1P rules.
Is that the freaking cup'a'tea worm from Labyrinth! Amazing.

I totally would love to see more of this lizard men army!
I’ve watched both this and pickle jar vid and I want a vid from you two when you reveal your armies to each other 😂😂😂😂😂
This was a refreshing video! I’ve been overcomplicating my painting lately. Back to basics!
Great video. Very cool meeting you in York!
Casting my vote for a OPR batrep!
That's a good motto for life in general :D
Yes please to the OPR battle Luke, would be awesome!
a One page rule Battle reports will be very interesting to watch
Nice "Live Slug Reaction" Shirt!
All up for more onepagerules, battle reps would be good

I paint basic everyday 😀 nothing wrong with a good old brush. Love the lizardmen sculpts. Great video

Love the one page rules videos!

Where did you get that t- shirt i want one?
Let’s see that battle report for OPRs!
I would love to see how a One Page game runs!
I LOVE the OPR Lizard Men. I don't actually play any warhammer stuff, but I do love painting the minis, and I want to get a whole army of these guys!
Yes. I would like an age of fantasy bat rep. I would like that a lot
Yes please onepage rules gamed
I am really looking forward to the full army to see how you will improve in the layering from starting model to the last one.
I would love to see you guys play One Page Rules XD
