Don't worry too much it's just a tabletop piece: proceeds to casually paint a miniature to a standard I could never hope to achieve trying my absolute hardest haha. Amazing work!

This is hands-down the best painted model I have ever seen in my entire life.

@@TierDrama Dude, seriously? This model is like a fricking painting. I saw it over at Reddit it I didn't believe it was a mini at first. Every stroke is as precise as it can be. All of these gradients and effects make it look so perfect.

I just did my intro set of Intercessors using a lot of advice in this video. I'm really happy with my with how they turned out. Especially for my first 40K models, and not doing any modeling in probably 36 years. Thanks for the help! Great video.

I love seeing content like this from you. I really have to try to do more grimdark. I love the style but in the past I've become too comfortable with the clean Eavy Metal style. Great inspiration to give it a go.

@Hope4sun 3 жыл бұрын

Absolutely phenomenal table top mini, captures that grimdark feel perfectly and still carries your signature look and feel to a T 👍 from someone who moved to studio scale modelling for years before coming back to minis, it’s really nice seeing all the techniques starting to blend 😎

Love this effect. I find it much more in keeping with my idea of how they should look rather than the edge highlighting bonanza you see on other models that end up producing a Tron warrior appearance!

Amazing to see your process. I've been working with oil washes on miniatures for a few years and I can recommend using small make-up sponges with thinner to remove the washes. It doesnt leave unwanted fibres like the cotton buds do. Saves a lot of hassle, but they tend to be more absorbent. Awesome work and truly shows your masterful control and experience as an artist.

I recently got into miniature painting. Being a chaos guy myself, i chose as my first miniature a Great Unclean One. Iv been having a blast painting it but its not anywhere near perfect like the works of Richard Grey but I now have something to truly work towards. If i knew what I know now going into this I would have painted some of these pieces before gluing stuff down but in a few years when i learn more I will absolutely be picking up another Great Unclean one to do a comparison between where i started and where i end up.

I absolutely love this. The only thing I have a minor dislike for is the initial stippling step adds the rough texture to the gold areas of the paint job and I don’t like the way it looks. But I think the textured look looks great on the blue parts of the armour. 🙌🏻👌🏻
