Similar to what I did with my Intruders. I spray primed them gloss black. Then I painted purple ink. Then picked out some of the details, mostly around the mouth. The infants on the queen were more subdued so not to detract from her. I drybrushed the floor silver then used some black wash on it. I wanted it dull looking.

Excellent video! I just got in to hobby, started painting intruders like this tutorial (i painted the same way queen, breeders, creepers and larva also). As a beginner i only had trouble with last runefang steel layer where u only touch high points so i decided to skip that part. I am currently at part where i used semi-gloss varnish but i'm a bit disappointed how it tuned down blood and armor. Was thinking about doing 1 coat of gloss on head like in video and then maybe another one on head, bloodied parts and armor, to bring up that shine. All in all, great video and i hope i'll find something like this for my other miniatures. Thanks! :)

Glad you found it useful Margot. Wy not try something like Incubi Darkness for a first drybrush? Keep the black undercoat through so you have nice dark shadows. Then the light metallic drybrush over that on highlights. But experiment first with one figure so you get the effect you're after. Alternatively, you can try more Nightshade blue washes over the metallic. Or both!

I am totally new to miniature painting, but I am receiving nemesis soon and want to paint the figures myself. Out of all the painting videos on the intruders, I like your look the most. My original plan was to zenithal prime the figures and then wash them with a dark color. Can you recommend this? In your video you primed them only black and went from there with dry brushing with Leadbelcher base color. There is also a Leadbelcher primer spray can from citadel. Could I go black->leadbelcher->white for the primer and then wash with nuln oil? Thanks in advance.
@EsotericOrderGamers4 жыл бұрын
Hi Markus. You can, but you'll get a different effect. I wouldn't worry about the zenithal highlighting, just drybrush them as I have. And white over leadbelcher probably won't work. In short, you can experiment with whatever techniques you like - and you may come up with something better! - but if you want this result, just replicate what I've done. :)

I always believe it's better to have some paint on a mini than none at all. By all means do a basic job and just leave them unvarnished - you can always go back and clean up and add more detail until you're happy with the result and want to varnish them. I often paint minis quickly with contrast paints, and then later when I have more time, add highlighting and fine detail. Have fun!
