How to Paint: Night lords
Added 2022-06-23 21:35:45 +0000 UTC
Hello everyone, apologies for the slight delay to the video. I've been trying to upload the video for around 6 hours today.
I have kindly been invited by Patreon to participate in the beta testing of their new video upload feature. However it's seems to have issues with uploading large videos at the moment.
- Skaven Part 2 is on the way, just needs some audio.
- Golden Demon is now almost only 3 months away (still awaiting ticket announcement though! ) Content next month will be mostly featuring videos related to this, looking to up the quality of the painting as much as I can and I have some big plans so it should be good content fingers crossed.
- I thought about this Night Lord video and there's a few bits I had to leave out for time reasons. Would a video about details on Chaos Miniatures be useful? Also perhaps a basing video showcasing how to sculpt rocks similar to the one seen on the Night Lord and my other miniatures?
I also have plans to make some more general techniques videos. I'm aware there's been a lack of content on here recently so perhaps making some videos that are quicker to edit and allow me to get the videos out faster.
I hope you are all having a great week, happy painting!
- Dave

Would love to know th recipe for basing nightlords. Or even just a desert or astro granite - like scheme. Same for their red cloaks/robes.

Another absolute banger mate, my future Crimson Fists thank you for this! I have an unrelated question if that's okay. I'm about to do your Black Templar tutorial, and after that I'm going to paint my own black / red marines, and I get the impression that a different recipe than stegaddon / wraithbone would be better for red. What would you recommend I use for blue tone, do you have a tested recipe? Or should I just use the Bike Chaplain recipe from the google docs? TYVM, keep up the good work!

I second the comments above. For YouTube general audience maybe a condensed general guide would grow the audience but I love the long detailed videos, to see something as simple as the sped up brushstrokes allows me to see how you manipulate the model. (I would assume those of us that pay enjoy seeing the thorough process more than YouTube) but I’d watch anything you produce regardless.

Dave don’t ever sweat about a “lack of content”. Your stuff is so pristine and provides us w/ perfected teachable content.

Hi Dave
Great video again. I alway look forward to them.
Some smaller videos on making bases would be cool. As well as some smaller free hand videos. Like chaos markings , chapter badges. May also be good. Or OSL tips.
I liked the video on human faces with different skin tones.
Can’t waist to see you golden Demon piece.
Regards
Matt

Great video, such a well balanced colour scheme. That bronze with the dark blue is -really- top notch, Dave. Thank you.

Also, +1 for rocky basing and painting techniques and +1 for glazing (maybe with tabard example) vids.

Great video man. Cool to see the extra feathering/blending steps for the blue armour. Actually gives me a burning desire to paint dire avengers. Also really like how the brassy gold turned out.

All thanks goes to you - I have learned so much from the content you have been making, Cheers!

This might be my favourite video so far. Thank you for this. I would love to see how you painted the other chaosy bits and the base!

Thanks, I undestand, don't worry. We are learning a lot with you.

Thank you for the feedback John! I did cover skulls on the Deathguard video however I could see a dedicated video on different skulls and different recipes would be useful
Infernal Brush
2022-06-24 09:25:16 +0000 UTC
Thank you for the feedback Chris! Yes I think that would be good, I could cover fur, horns, icons, bones, wood, leather etc

Thank you for the feedback dude! Noted! Definitely a techniques video on the way for glazing.

I'm afraid Miguel that it just takes too long to produce and edit a video with that many parts. Bearing in mind I have to get 2 videos out per month. The skulls are covered in the Death Guard Part 2 video.

Great vid thanks! Will definitely try and replicate those shoulder highlights. And yes, would love to see a base/rock sculpting vid that you mentioned please!

Great video as always mate! Love all the little inclusions like the paint list at the beginning and the inclusion of which brush you’re using (maybe it’ll stop people asking all the time? Probably not, but we can hope right?! 😊).
Amazing to see such an excellent piece laid out stage by stage like this!

Why not in the video the tutorial for the skulls???????, nooooooooooooooooo
Miguel Angel Ahís
2022-06-24 06:38:04 +0000 UTC
I personally prefer tutorials with completely finished figures, with explanations of all the details. In my opinion, it is good to have few videos, but with 100% explained figures. PS: I'm going to need a lot of videos of the new Warhammer40k dwarves.

I think general videos on things such as glazing or edge highlighting would be great. I think some of your experience with tuition as of recent might help too since it’s probably helped you realise what people struggle with most! I’d also love the chaos details and/or sculpting rocks tutorials too. Another suggestion for a ‘quick and easy’ video might be a rundown of the equipment and tools you like. Glaze medium, sanding tools, clay shapers, milliput, micro-set and sol, etc. It would be extremely useful, and you could also use B-footage from painting and assembly streams in that kind of video, making it easier to create than a whole ass painting tutorial. Also works as an FAQ to the millions of YouTube questions asking about your brushes, primer, etc 😂

Fantastic as always. Your glazes always seem really simple to do. I often struggle glazing lighter colours, even with Daler Rowney medium. It would be cool to see some stuff around how to properly use mediums.

Absolutely yes to details for Chaos miniatures.

Very good video, I’ve been waiting for this since I picked up Konrad recently. Small videos seem like a good idea, just having a dedicated video for skulls for example would be amazing. Basing videos are always good as well.

I would love to see some more basing tutorials but this is great stuff!

Hi Dave, yes to video about details on the Chaos Miniatures and basing video(s)
Jim Tink
2022-06-23 22:06:41 +0000 UTC
Basing and general techniques all sound great! Also, maybe tackling one miniature per race/army would be great too! (E.g. one space marine video applies to all, one eldar, one sylvaneth, etc…)

Shorter videos tackling certain parts or techniques are very welcome.
