🕑 Added 2022-03-02 00:42:19 +0000 UTCA bit later than planned due to some tech issues today, but I am pleased to announce Part 2 is now available as a Patreon exclusive.
Basing Video for this miniature is also on the way.
Thanks for everyone's patience!

How were the skulls painted on the shoulder pad and knee pad?
Alexander Sikorski
how did you paint the black tubing on the backpack, caution tubing on the head, and black parts in between the armor?

Awesome! Just wondering how you painted the yellow circles on the cloth? similar to yellow pipes?

Thanks, I switched from DaVinci to R&Co for my basing brushes recently. I plan to give the W&N mini brushes a try for edge highlighting.

Hello! I use a range of brushes from Winsor and Newton, Rosemary and Co and Artis Opus. The R&Co and AO are great for basecoating, layering, glazing blending and the W&N are great for edge highlights specifically the miniature series sizes 0 and 1. For the other brushes I recommend some sizes 2-3s. Hope this helps!

I love the results! If you donβt mind, what brushes do you use when painting?

This is so helpful. Thank you!

hi, great tutorial. Are you considering doing a rubric marine? I've been looking everywhere for an eavy metal guide on them

What colours are used in the studio for the horns on DG models (on pauldrons etc)? always have trouble with those.

It might be worth trying another pot Andreas as sometimes Ive noticed they vary quite a lot, unfortunately some of the GW paints are just naturally chalky though. It also depends on what medium you use, I definitely recommend Daler Rowney Matt Glaze medium this stuffs great for reducing chalkiness.

Thank you Isma, you are good people <3

Good question! I would use Deathworld Forest with a tiny bit of Caliban and Rhinox Hide mixed in and glaze it in to the panels instead, this works really nicely!
Ismail Sekakte
Thx for releasing the best painting content available online!! <3

This is the best DG tutorial out there - i think ive seen them all :) You mention that you would use paints other than Athonian Camoshade for shading, if you were not going for studio look. Hope you don't mind me asking, what paints would you use? I am keen to give this a go!
dyniorro
Awesome! Thx!
Andreas Pegrin
Great Video! I always get some Problems with the light green colours like Death Guard Green/ Ogry Camo etc. They seem to split on my palette/brush tip and look chalky and flaky when i apply them to the model. I already tried to mix it with medium and water but i never get a smooth result. Do you have some Tips on that?

Thank you Rick!

Thank you :)
Infernal Brush
Thank you b3 your comment made my day and thank you for your support. I mostly use Winsor and Newton Series 7, the miniature series size 1 is what I use for the majority of detail work now. The larger brush I use in this video is a Rosemary & Co Series 33 size 1, they are great for larger less detailed work and glazing. Hope this helps!

I am so glad that I stumbled on your instagram page which has led me here! The content you are creating is absolutely amazing! The quality of these videos is great and the way you paint is truly inspiring. I am already looking forward to your next video :) One question though, what brushes are you mostly using?
Valerio Proietti Checchi
Amazing, thanks!
James Turnham
Great video Dave! As others have said there's plenty of stuff in here that translates far beyond just the Death Guard. Looking forward to the next video!

Fantastic video mate! So many useful tips and recipes that have mileage way beyond just Deathguard as you note! The finished piece is beautiful (in a disgusting Deathguard kinda way!) too! π

This is gold, this tutorial solves many headaches, I am really grateful to have the opportunity to see such professional and well-executed and structured material
Timothy Philpott
Thankyou! I've been hanging out for this one π
Dominic Booth
Looks great Dave! π
Christian Schmidt
Great, much more to come then! One thing that I find particular difficult is GW fur 'eavy metal style. Skaven or Kruleboyz / Space wolves for example. It is a layered gradient with tricky edges... Maybe something for a future tutorial
Infernal Brush
Thank you Christian that means a lot! I am only just getting started!
Christian Schmidt
You dont get enough credit and applause for your work. It is very well done, great tutorial and please keep it going. π€π»
