so you're starting a new Army might be a
0:02
first it might be a second but like all
0:04
of us you're gonna move from zero to a
0:07
huge amount of plastic in no time we set
0:09
ourselves a Target can you paint a
0:12
Warhammer 40 000 Army in 12 hours
0:15
let's find out
0:17
for our new Army we're using the
0:18
contents of the cadius dung box set and
0:21
we're painting them in the classic City
0:22
fight color scheme of the Acadian 122nd
0:26
regiment as voted by our wonderful
0:28
Patron supporters we have our army box
0:30
set it's time to crack it open and get
0:33
build in
0:44
so I flipped through the instruction
0:46
manual and I'm picking the sergeant nice
0:48
and straightforward mini to demonstrate
0:49
on
0:50
it's just a matter of following those
0:51
build steps and working your way through
0:53
again when we're clipping our air I'm
0:55
going to use the flat side of the
0:56
Clippers when slipping out be mindful
0:58
when cutting that last part because
0:59
sometimes that would tendency to fly off
1:01
fill up the parts of a knife or a mold
1:03
line remover once you cut them off
1:05
personally I prefer to get everything
1:06
cut out in one go place them on the
1:08
manual and then just clean them up and
1:10
then just build them as the instructions
1:11
say it just helps speed the process up
1:13
now I built a few models in
1:15
sub-assemblies this is the gun crew who
1:16
are put on separate bases so I can paint
1:18
them easier and not have to work around
1:20
a big cannon again I'm making sure I use
1:22
super glue for this stage because it'll
1:23
be easier to snap them off later
1:25
[Music]
1:32
so everyone in our belt it's now time to
1:34
undercoat and then paint them now as I'm
1:36
painting these of an urban camo scheme
1:37
I'm going to be using Army painter wolf
1:39
gray which pretty much matches up with
1:41
rust gray if you're interested now I
1:44
always focus on the majority of color
1:45
schemes over these mainly fatigues and
1:47
trousers and stuff which is why I'm
1:48
getting gray but there's some things
1:49
that might vary in the Army so with a
1:51
sentinel and the actual Ordnance big
1:53
guns and I'll be spraying those silver
1:55
so we Brave the UK cold of -3 and the
2:00
Wolf Gray spray failed on his ads say it
2:03
drizzled spurted didn't really spray so
2:06
we had to quickly make some changes and
2:07
start to run inside grab some Chaos
2:09
Black undercoat on my trips to cow's
2:11
black and then get some lead Belcher on
2:13
the Sentinel on those weapons
2:17
so yeah uh we're undercoated black I'm
2:21
trying something here as opposed to
2:22
airbrushing or having the wolf gray
2:24
underket which didn't work as we've
2:26
already discussed on level cracker just
2:28
seeing if I can just over brush with
2:29
some wolf gray I hope these guys I know
2:31
it's got a bit of green on this brush
2:33
but that's fine because it's just
2:34
Stained It's All I Do let's just get
2:36
myself a dry brush
2:37
and just over brush that cloth
2:40
and see on that books I just need a
2:42
couple of coats
2:44
I originally would have done was just
2:46
sprayed it with gray would have been
2:48
super easy
2:50
not to the
2:52
because our gray spray failed I'm gonna
2:54
need to block out that gray the
2:55
old-fashioned way with a brush very big
2:57
brush and a couple of coats at that it's
2:59
unfortunate for the timing but the end
3:01
results will be the same
3:02
I'm not going for neatness here it's
3:04
messy but it's quick now that that's
3:06
done I'm an hour behind schedule it's
3:08
time to move on to the rest of the
3:10
miniature
3:12
our first step is to pick out all the
3:14
black sections using black Legion this
3:16
will be the armor the weapons and the
3:17
lever details like the boots and gloves
3:19
you could paint your leather brown but
3:21
as we go for Speed we're going with
3:22
black but we'll show you a cool trick to
3:24
differentiate the two materials later on
3:28
[Music]
3:32
so it took me 45 minutes to over brush
3:35
all that gray
3:36
so I'm 45 minutes behind I'm now
3:38
blacking out which is going to take
3:39
about an hour so
3:41
there we go
3:43
so we opted to paint the gloves all the
3:45
hands black so just a lot of leather
3:46
gloves to cut down on time because
3:48
that's what we're going for a speed and
3:50
then this absolute chance it turned up
3:51
with his sleeves rolled up we called him
3:53
Stephen
3:54
or should we say sneevan and it wasn't
3:57
one wasn't two
3:59
found out there's four of them four
4:02
that's gonna knock us back whole point
4:04
of it was just you know speed but no no
4:06
Slevin turns up in his mates and now
4:08
we're behind didn't get the Mellow did
4:10
they
4:12
how old is that next it was to pick out
4:15
his silver details using iron hand steel
4:17
most of this is gonna be weapons like
4:18
the last gun or things like grenades Etc
4:21
I nearly felt like an entire lifetime
4:23
painting the silver on this absolute
4:26
Muppet I mean literally every other
4:28
model in the set has options every
4:31
single one of them does except this guy
4:32
no yes of all the Aerials in the world
4:35
why
4:36
why so much that's why I hate him I hate
4:40
him so which I flicked him hard across
4:42
the table hey him and go away Master Vox
4:48
don't get me started that guy triggered
4:50
me all the way through this video
4:54
Pat we're trying to save time this guy
4:57
turns it with all the gear
5:02
next up is to pick out any gold details
5:05
using retributed armor this is mainly
5:07
Imperial scattered across the minis as
5:08
well as some belt buckles and a little
5:10
bit of trim on those sergeants and
5:12
officers shoulder pads
5:15
our next color is to use mephistan red
5:18
and this is for the left shoulder pole
5:20
again tying it in with that lovely city
5:22
fight art however for different squads
5:24
or platoons you can always use a
5:26
different colors and tie it up to you
5:28
so at this point we're blocked in a
5:30
whole bunch of colors next up is to pick
5:32
out that camo scheme for our 120 second
5:35
now I could just not do it and highlight
5:37
the models but it really just adds a
5:39
nice level of interest and it looks cool
5:41
and it actually looks like he's spent
5:42
more time on your models if you actually
5:43
have so the tech is an hour but it's
5:46
worth it for that impact
5:48
the first part of the camera pattern is
5:49
to use black Legion for the design and
5:51
we're looking at painting the letter Y
5:53
horizontally or slightly horizontally
5:55
now if you're not feeling that confident
5:56
then irregular Bobs will also do the
5:58
trick and should you make any mistakes
6:00
use the Army painter wolf gray to just
6:02
you know fix any mishaps take your time
6:04
and as I found when I was doing it I
6:06
actually got quite a good rhythm going
6:08
[Music]
6:17
for the second part of the camo we'll be
6:19
using pro acryl's bolt titanium white
6:21
again we are painting The Letter White
6:24
horizontally and again if you make any
6:25
mistakes use wolf gray or rust gray
6:27
whichever you've got
6:29
[Music]
6:35
well the camera now done what we're now
6:38
going to do is drench down a tie model
6:39
in normal oil because I know a few of
6:42
you out there really like it
6:44
around it which around those models in
6:46
Normal
6:48
as always with Shades be mindful of it
6:50
heavily pull in those recesses I did
6:51
need Pat to remind me a few times that's
6:54
fine if it does dry for brush and then
6:56
use it to soak up any excess Honestly
6:58
though after it dried and there was some
7:00
pulling it wasn't that massively
7:01
noticeable because well the camera
7:02
pattern kind of hit it applied the wash
7:05
yesterday and left overnight to dry
7:06
we've got about two hours 20 minutes
7:10
left
7:10
so the skin to do I've still got all the
7:13
weapons on the stem cell to do as well
7:15
it's fine we can do this most of the
7:19
models are built it's just like a bit of
7:21
skin I'm not stressed
7:23
you're built real stressed
7:27
it'd be fine
7:30
now we're going to add some distinction
7:31
between the armor and the leather
7:33
details and for this we're going to chip
7:34
the armor up using iron hand steel and
7:36
if you find any of your chips are too
7:38
big or clunky looking just get some
7:39
black agent and then just tidy back up
7:41
with it
7:47
[Music]
7:50
it's now time to pick out the skin tones
7:52
again any flesh tone would do but I'm
7:54
going to mix it up a little bit with
7:56
three tones across the Army set rack off
7:58
flesh for the lighter skin tone blood
7:59
Reaver for the mid-tone and then catch
8:01
on flesh for any darker tones I'll also
8:03
pick out any of the details like rack
8:05
off Flesh on the medic and parchment on
8:07
the banner and of course we mustn't
8:08
forget our full Guardsmen didn't get the
8:11
memo about rolling the sleeve down
8:13
sleeve and Strikes Again
8:21
to do is come over the rack off Flesh
8:22
and Blood Reaper flesh tones with golden
8:24
flesh and then I'll use normal oil for
8:26
the darker skin tone and at this point
8:28
you can also drench that over those bits
8:30
we did such as the banner and the medic
8:32
oh and of course don't forget the paper
8:34
on the blooming Master vox's
8:37
unnecessarily large xerox machine to
8:39
carry around now to speed up the
8:41
proceedings I'm going to apply my first
8:42
base and texture onto my infantry before
8:44
moving on to painting the audience and
8:45
sentos again was just to speed up I'm
8:47
going for a war-torn city Rubble Vibe
8:49
and for that I'm going to use a Dusty
8:51
gray base after this I'm going to be
8:52
using ak's lunar desert and I'm going to
8:55
apply quite heavily to the base not only
8:57
is it great texture paint but it's also
9:00
great value for money we worked out that
9:02
it costs about 6p per mil as opposed to
9:06
Astro Granite which is about 11p per ml
9:08
which is Matt uh it's a huge tub it goes
9:11
miles and I don't think we've even used
9:13
a quarter of it I'll also thin some down
9:15
when I'm splodging it around near the
9:17
feed again it just speed up the process
9:18
they can add some thicker after now
9:20
Astro is a decent alternative to this
9:22
especially if you've already got it but
9:24
honestly after using ak's basic
9:27
materials we recommend that it just
9:28
there's so much of it it goes for and
9:30
it's great and it just
9:34
looks better to us we're just having a
9:35
Christmas biscuit to console myself
9:36
because
9:38
we've hit the 12 hour mark
9:40
I've got all the troops done
9:42
paste what kind of they're waiting to
9:44
dry not done not not done that since no
9:46
one
9:48
these guys need doing
9:50
from those guys need clearing up but
9:52
nearly there nearly that I reckon
9:54
another two hours
9:55
14 hours 15 hours lifetime with golfment
10:00
Honestly though I mean with the time and
10:02
some of the issues we had sort of the
10:04
spray we've done okay could have been
10:06
worse
10:07
can they pat
10:09
could be Ray could have been pregnant
10:11
yeah
10:15
so now I'm gonna move on to our war
10:17
machines or weaponry and our Sentinel
10:20
now the central dried a bit weird after
10:22
we sprayed it because it had gone I
10:23
don't put some sort of outside or what
10:24
but you know what it's fine because
10:26
we're going to cut the whole lot in noon
10:27
oil really gentleman lawn oil and then
10:29
when they're dried I'm then going to do
10:31
a little bit of dry brush in a fine hand
10:33
steel so once that known all is dry get
10:36
some Iron and Steel wipe it off much as
10:38
you can and then just gently thick over
10:39
those edges giving it a nice subtle
10:42
highlight what I'm going to do here is
10:43
I'm going to paint all the armor panels
10:45
on these vehicles and weapons using wolf
10:47
gray which is the pot of paint not the
10:49
spray so I've got the pot paint ready
10:50
I'm gonna do a couple of coats here what
10:52
you're not gonna do which is all about
10:54
speed here if don't go to the edges does
10:56
two things saves your highlighting
10:58
secondly looked War torn weathered
11:00
battered been out obviously doing its
11:04
stuff on the battlefield for ages and
11:06
this is Imperial Guard fine great you
11:09
can use it for Orcs you can use it for
11:10
anything you can use the Space Marines
11:11
it just gives it a really nice weathered
11:13
battered effect and it's great and speed
11:15
Beauty and I've used it a lot for senior
11:18
as well it's worth taking up on scenery
11:21
after picking those older panels we're
11:22
now going to get some black Legion and
11:23
then just pick out the gun casing and of
11:25
course the wheels on those Ordnance
11:27
weaponry
11:31
there's a case of picking up little
11:33
Minor Details here so retribute to armor
11:35
for any Eagles
11:37
[Music]
11:39
and then mephistan red for any red
11:41
markings so just on the knee there of
11:43
the Sentinel also when using my fist in
11:46
red for the little monitor or table they
11:48
got I'm just going to use that thin down
11:49
pick out that screen also any lenses at
11:52
the front and then for any buttons I'm
11:53
just gonna use it straight from the pot
11:55
and again all those details we picked
11:57
out we're just going to drench those
11:57
with noon oil so again that's their wolf
11:59
gray black Legion retrometer armor and
12:01
the mephistan red
12:03
right
12:04
Vehicles Weaponry done what we're now
12:07
going to do is clip off those models
12:09
from the bases because they were there
12:10
just so we can hold them and paint them
12:12
again because they're super glued quite
12:14
easy to snap off there might be one or
12:15
two where you need to use Clippers and
12:16
dig into a little bit for the most part
12:18
they're just going to pop off and then
12:20
just clean them underneath with a Nica
12:21
to that bits of canoe on the bottoms or
12:23
on the feet
12:25
and then once they're all glued onto the
12:27
wall machines or the Ordnance weapons
12:28
we're then going to start basing them in
12:30
that texture and leave that to dry and
12:31
then move on to applying some liquid
12:33
pigment
12:36
so we are 13 and a half hours in now so
12:39
that's an hour and a half over where I
12:41
want it to be but that's fine evidence
12:42
base is waiting for some of the bigger
12:44
things to dry off and then I'm going to
12:45
add some liquid piglets to those but I
12:47
thought you know what probably an extra
12:49
hour's worth of work after that I'm just
12:50
gonna tart up a few things tighten the
12:53
flesh up put some transfers on put some
12:55
words on the ballot you bet that I'll be
12:58
happy with that said yeah
13:00
yeah
13:02
he's killed it
13:04
you're looking at the Double cabinet
13:07
Christmas
13:10
these are like enamel based so you'll
13:13
need thinners to thin then we've got
13:14
some thinners here apparently it's got a
13:16
nice fruity fragrance smell interesting
13:18
and all they do is apply that over the
13:21
texture and then if I need to in some
13:22
place where it's a bit too thick and
13:24
goopy or too much I'll just use the
13:25
thinners just to thin it down
13:27
once applied it will dry matte and is
13:30
self-fixing so you won't need to seal it
13:32
or anything alternatively you can
13:33
exercise Andrew dust or steel Legion
13:35
giraffe and really thin it down and
13:36
apply that over the Astro Granite if you
13:38
don't want to use this
13:39
to finish off I'm going to use steel
13:41
Legion jump as I always do to paint the
13:43
rim honestly you can use any color I
13:45
just love this and I think it's a nice
13:47
visual bridge between the bass and the
13:48
gaming board
13:49
[Music]
13:55
so all our models are based they're done
13:58
with 14 hours in however being me and
14:03
finicky want to add some extra details
14:05
and I'm going to give myself an extra
14:07
hour and the reason for doing that is we
14:10
all know a life expectancy of a
14:12
Guardsman is 15 hours so hopefully
14:15
they'll have at least a minute to fight
14:17
before I finish penis
14:19
we'll find out
14:21
I keep doing myself deadlines and
14:22
missing them
14:28
now I'm going to highlight the skin
14:30
using the base coats we applied such as
14:32
rack off left of the pale tones blood
14:33
River flesh from the mid-tones and catch
14:35
and flesh for the darker tones you can
14:37
always mix in other colors if you want
14:38
them lighter but I just want to add a
14:39
bit more punch to that skin
14:42
and for the rakoff flesh one of the well
14:43
I just added a little bit more thin gun
14:45
will flesh after because some of those
14:47
highlights can be quite Stark Skin's
14:49
done you can leave it there but I really
14:50
want some numbers on those shoulder pads
14:52
so we're just going to add some
14:53
transfers to our models now I'm going to
14:54
do it really quick we're using some hard
14:55
coat and some varnish and a knife not
14:58
too mad so let's see how we get them so
15:00
first of all I'm going to prep that area
15:01
where I want my transfer to go and for
15:03
this I'm using hard coat or any gloss
15:04
will do it's unlike things up the
15:06
Sentinel you want to do the whole panel
15:07
as well because it can look different
15:08
with toe and if you just pick out little
15:11
areas so do the whole section once it
15:13
becomes very noticeable then it's about
15:15
cutting out that decal so depending
15:17
which ones you want just cut to the
15:19
shape apply that decal to a piece of
15:21
damp tissue knee for around about 30
15:23
seconds lift off and then apply to the
15:26
desired area you should use tweezers I'm
15:27
just using my brush here to pick it off
15:29
once they're on just dab it with a bit
15:30
of tissue and then all we're going to do
15:32
is get some matte varnish and apply that
15:34
over again any amount of varnish we do
15:36
I'm just using matte varnish plus here
15:38
you could use thin down PVA or whatever
15:41
it's going to talk to you it will dry
15:43
matte and it just helps seal it in as
15:45
well
15:46
and I certainly look Mega
15:49
[Music]
15:57
there we are the only is done our aim
16:00
was to paint our army in 12 hours a 40K
16:04
Army in 12 hours can it be done no I
16:07
said 15. can I return no because I went
16:10
over by 15 minutes 15 minutes over 15
16:13
hours so 15 hours 15 minutes life
16:15
expectancy I was basically adding decals
16:17
to corpses is what I was doing there now
16:20
I would say it's really really handy to
16:22
give yourself deadlines yes I was
16:24
probably a bit ambitious with the 12.
16:25
took me about 15 just over 15. that's
16:28
fine if other said to myself can I paint
16:30
this box set in 24 hours I probably
16:32
wouldn't pick weird details I would have
16:34
took the foot off the gas
16:36
I might even end up with the same level
16:38
of content because I didn't stretch
16:41
myself I didn't push myself but actually
16:43
it took me 15 hours not 18 or 24. so it
16:47
is worth giving yourself stringent
16:48
deadlines or really challenging
16:49
deadlines be surprising we can do in
16:52
that time well after that roller coaster
16:55
