No intention of painting Custodes but it is an absolute joy watching Peachy having so much fun.

My wife's first and favorite army. I think she likes them mostly because she enjoys calling them the Adeptus Custard.

Saw peachy at Warhammer fest, cheekily walking along with a Beveridge in each hand! Painting legend.

slipping the paintbrush lid behind the Paint pot - that's some inspiring wizardry! why have I not seen / thought of that before 🤦🏼‍♂️

I honestly can't say how satisfying it is watching a... 'sub optimal' paint job, like it's not bad, but there are so many display level videos, this is just so much more fun to watch

ill be using this power weapon recipe for sure.

That black trick to avoid pink white is brilliant!

Loving the use of a finger to blend and smooth. A hobby tool essential!

This tutorial had no right being so entertaining... but I throughly enjoyed every second of it and will be bringing popcorn to your next tutorial.

1:36 Peachy: Casually painting the BGM: 🎻🔥🎻🔥🎻🔥🎻🔥

The black paint trick is incredible

Man peachy i love you methods and your fun carefree atitude, i feel like you where sitting next to me ahowing me how this was done. Again fellow player from texas thanks you!

Getting to see Peachy be himself and making jokes is so much better and I like him even more than GW Peachy. These are amazing tutorials

Ahem, friends don't let friends paint there base rim anything but black sir.

As someone who is neurodivergent and is getting into mini painting, this video was very insightful and the paint process of each part of the mini is really broken down into easy to follow steps. Especially the blade painting steps really helped me to finally understand the coating with contrasts and how to create the lightning and energy effects, also the gem painting 12/10.

Loving the video frequency and format. Everything is beautifully shot, excellently painted and, most importantly, explained in easily digestible chunks (and in a way that feels achievable!) Kudos Mr Peach and the whole Painting Phase team 🙌

The layering of contrast paints and use of them as a shade! Love it! I have a ton of them and need to use them to their full potential!

Thank you so much! Ive wanted to paint Custodes for a long time, this video has given me the kick up my Tyranid Arse to go out and start a second army!

🎵 Golden words he will pour in your eeeeeaaaar 🎶 thanks I’ll be singing that all day now haha

Watching for the second time...because reasons...and man, the string music just elevates the whole thing.

Great video, you guys are smashing it. I love seeing the new unshackled Peachy.

That black paint trick is slick

Or just use ‘The Masters Brush Cleaner and Preserver’ to clean your brushes. Probably the best thing you can do for your painting sanity. ❤

Nice, I just got my first every custodes after painting only Ultra Marines and Death Watch before. Can't wait to try this out.❤❤❤

Loving these vids Peachy and what a pleasure to see you back doing tutorials.👌👍👏🖌️

Love the choice of music! 😃👌🏻

whenever I prime in one of the main colors of the figure, like gold here, I always do a halfhearted coat of gold from the pot/bottle on top of it. I find that spray cans and the regular paints do differ a noticeable amount even if it's a "100% color match", and of course, as Mr. Peachy said, it helps the paint grip on better as spray metallics can be a bit difficult to paint on. Also, if you want to get more "realistic" splatter effects of dirt, dust, or blood, then I do wholeheartedly recommend something Alex from 52 Miniatures showed in a video. Take your brush and load it fair bit and get a drinking straw. Then blow trough the straw onto the brush and aim wherever you want the splatter to appear. Then the droplets from your brush actually splatters onto the mini :) I find it to be a nice little trick to use from time to time to get a different dirt/ mud effect without having to buy new expensive things :)

When you think you've picked army and a video pops up that shows you just how great another army is

Happy to see your new gig Peachy! Awesome stuff!

This is the best power weapon i’ve seen A+

Lovin Peachy being off the leash

Peachy i really like your style just enough definition, i always tend to overdo things so that it takes 2 time aslong… i will try and stick to your scheme this time and get them battle ready. Thank you.

Love seeing the new Peachy 'Unchained'!

great tip at @7:50

Love this channel, looks so simple and the results are fantastic.

oh the music! Bloody lovely

This making the Christmas box set even more tempting! Great video!

Peachy, you're the MVP

Cracking video! ..and enjoyable seeing Peachy out in the wilds! Really inspires me to turn my brush to a 40k project. Cheers for sharing - and always good to see the ol' Peachy 'thumbing' technique in action! 🙌

Thank you for this. I just started the hobby with Custodes and this has been a huge help.

Great tips, exact paint names with descriptions, fine music, and a stellar end result of the model. Ten outta ten. Thank you!

1:30 - It’s nice to see that even though I am 18,300km away, the pattern on paper towels remains the same. It must be an STC.

Using this video for my minotaurs' spears for reasons related to deep lore

Nice seeing Peachy thriving like that. Such a good and genuine video. The music was epic!

Great tutorial!

Truly quick and with wonderful results.

YOU CAN HOLD THE PAINT POT OPEN WITH THE BRUSH LID?!!?!

His Touch Is Goooooold~

You've convinced me to start a custodes army 😍😍

Loved this video, one of my favourite painting tutorials. Now I just need you guys to do a space wolves like this and I am good

I love the vibe of these vids! Excellent to paint to. ^-^

So many cool tips! Awesome thanks team!

This video is solid gold!

Fantastic end result!

Painted up my first unit of Wardens following this guide and they look great! thanks Painting Phase! I had to substitute Nuln Oil for Basilicanum Grey and more Mephiston Red for Word Bearers Red but they came out lovely.

Hi Peachy. Loving this tutorial, your personality shines through as always. A fantastic dose of inspiration. I'm going to use this technique to paint my AOS Stormcasters Stormstrike set. Well done on a brilliant video. Thank you. Keep the good work coming and take care. Kind regards Ian 🖌️🖌️🖌️👍

Amazing work

Well done

Lovely guide, I'll use it for my first army! Thank you!

This was exactly the video I needed to finish off my Sagittarum. (now I can justify picking up some Jetbikes!)

Love it!!!

Great video! I'd love to see you do some Sisters of Battle!

‘I lurve gooooowld’

Love it man I should start a new army

I really love how free and happy you seem. Also, mentioning tips such as "if you can"t see it don"t paint it" (loosly citing here) should IMO be heard more. Thanks

Such a great video that shows how a combination of good technique and the right tools can achieve fantastic results. I'd love to see your approach to the Sisters of Silence. Well done!

Great recipe and I always love your sense of humour. Only thing different I did with my custodes was an edge highlight of eshin grey on the black.

This video is really helping me paint my army, it’s not custodes. I’m pimping out Necrons in the same scheme to great effect.

The Goldfinger intro was super fun.

Great tips got me jazzed to do some SCE!! Thanks P

Love the background music. Makes me feel fancy lol

I'm into Middle Earth SBG at the moment (to paint and collect, not play) but videos like these really make me want to starting buying 40k!

painting phase...peachy were painting custodes today peachy.. fantastic painting phase... ok we're nearly set up with the camer..... peachy... finished painting phase... god dam it peachy

Having been at this for a while and consumed so much HobbyTube, I was not explecting to learn new things with every video. Peachy pulls out tricks I've never seen from other tutorials (videos, pdfs, etc), and some choice bits of general knowledge (wash over metallics befor basecoats - check) that no one's mentioned before. This is great. Also, I've literally never gotten auric armor to work properly. Video was worth it for that alone.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:15 🎨 *Custodias are quick to paint due to their limited model count, making them suitable for fast tabletop-ready painting.* 00:43 🖌️ *You can undercoat the models with a metallic spray or base coat them by hand with metallic paint.* 01:11 🌟 *Applying a shade like Reikland Fleshshade helps the base coat adhere better to metallic undercoats.* 02:16 🗡️ *Different colors are used for various details, like using Iron Hand Steel for silver sections and Word Bearer's Red for leather.* 03:10 💎 *Gemstones and weapons are painted with blue tones, such as Frost Art and Storm Host Silver.* 04:26 🏞️ *Basing is done with Astro Granite for a contrasting gray tone against the gold and red of the Custodians.* 05:44 🎲 *The model is tabletop-ready after painting, and you can start playing games without further detailing.* 06:29 ✨ *Optional highlights are demonstrated using Auric Armor Gold for the gold areas and other colors for various details.* 08:10 ⚡ *Lightning crackle effects are added to the Guardian Spear, and gemstones are highlighted with dots.* 09:26 🔷 *Additional highlights with Storm Host Silver are applied to certain silver details on the Custodians.* Made with HARPA AIgiv

Could you please do one of these for death guard? Many thanks, I love this method of painting!

Peachy this was great.. Recommend getting some cheak meakup brushes for drybrushing, theyre super soft so work great

also best choice of background music

by any chance could you do a shadow keeper quick paint as well very tempted to buy the battle force box set after this vid

Hi love the following but would love to do a different shield host. Anny tips for paint?

Next to Duncan the best tutorial for the Custodes!

Might I request a similar video for Imperial Knights? While they're top candidates for high end paint jobs, they're also intimidating models that people struggle to get on the table and instead sit in subassembly in the closet. Better they get a rudimentary paintjob that someone can build on later.

Henry Cavill agree 😂

I really enjoyed this video and found it very helpful! Why brushes did you use throughout the painting process?

CUSTARDS 💛💛💛

This finally made my death guard click treating them like shiny cracked eggs. And I'm able turn them out much faster as result!. Thanks..

Hi there, is there any colour you would recommend to use to dry brush Space Wolves to highlight their armour?

Very helpful thanks what the music playing in the background

Peachy, do you ever do the base texture/rocks/etc before priming? I've been treating the base as part of "assembly" for a while now, and I find it makes it much more likely I'll actually do the base! Plus, with the base primed, you're not limited to the color of the texture paint and they're super fast to paint up with contrast and a dry brush.

I figured Tyranid would be the quickest paint job. These figs look fantastic though.

I think I'm gonna use this trick for my Custodes army. Now to wait that BF to arrive.... 😁

Thanks for actually showing us how to use auric armour gold 🥇 i haven't used that since sanguinary guard and still don't know how I did them back in the old days b4 retributor armour 😂 any chance you can show us on a vid how to do the blue grey lines between all those feathers games workshop do I've managed them b4 but I always find them a struggle n have never been out an bought a grey or blue wash to do it neither either way ied like to see it done

Thought this was Gordon Ramsay for a minute there. Kidding :D

Hey Peachy, what do you use when varnishing your miniatures after? I always find that's the one thing I struggle the most to really figure out what's best.

Perfect tutorial for my Custodies Killteam with great tips. It’s such a joy to discover Peachy’s true personality compared to his GW scripted vids. Thoroughly enjoyable. Also, great background music choice.

Could you do a similar video for Grey Knights perhaps?

How do you paint the white lightning lines so fine on the spear? I just can't seem to get them anywhere near as thin as this

Did you use the old or new reikland fleshshade?

Everyone complains to me about Corax white, but yours is as smooth as anything.. Is that just lots of mixing, or have you added some extra medium or something?

Hey, what can you use if you don’t have reikland flesh shade and word bearers red
