Frontier wargaming successor chapters
0:04
quite often they take a backseat to the
0:06
first founding when it comes to Space
0:08
Marines the schemes are quite often
0:10
split with either shoulder pads or an
0:12
arm being a different color or having
0:15
your hared and quarted schemes with the
0:18
release of the Dark Angels codex me and
0:19
Jeff were looking through some of the
0:22
successor chapter schemes and we thought
0:24
to ourselves let's draw some names out
0:25
of a hat and try and paint some never
0:29
done any kind of split scheme before see
0:31
if I get one could be a train wreck
0:33
let's see what happens right I'm up
0:35
first and I
0:39
have oh
0:42
piss penison blades I'm going to have to
0:46
think about this one I'm using my harder
0:48
on Steam back Ultra Link in the
0:49
description I'm really liking valo
0:52
surface primer at the minute so starting
0:54
there Ultra set to Prime and we're off
0:56
more rare paints to get my pink layer
0:58
set my ultra to base for this one and
1:01
everything that I've used so far has
1:02
been diluted 50/50 through the airbrush
1:04
Works a treat this did take a couple of
1:07
coats now that I've got a nice pink
1:08
layer over the miniature I'm going in
1:10
with my Tamia flat white using their
1:12
specific thinner with a 3:1 ratio great
1:14
for building up those layers I've
1:16
definitely over thin this in the past so
1:17
trying to be a bit more aware of that
1:19
then it's on to my favorite yellow
1:21
Imperial fist contrast and Blasting that
1:23
all over with the pink being a bit
1:25
brighter than some of the ones that I've
1:27
used in the past the Shadows are a bit
1:29
less Orange which I quite like but it's
1:31
definitely in need of a highlight so I'm
1:33
grabbing the brightest yellow air paint
1:35
that I've got mix it in a little bit of
1:37
white and just trying to stick some
1:39
volumes of light on what I think will be
1:42
the brightest areas that's all the
1:43
airbrushing done and I'm super happy
1:45
with how this looks currently that
1:47
airbrushing took a little while so I'm
1:48
going to continue painting at home with
1:51
a hobby deck from Frontier wargaming
1:53
I've moved house recently and don't have
1:55
the space for a permanent painting setup
1:57
the hobby deck is perfect for me cuz it
1:59
allows me to to paint anywhere I can
2:01
paint on the sofa as it comes with a
2:03
Comfy Cushion that just veles onto the
2:04
bottom or as it's removable I can take
2:07
that off and it doubles up as a painting
2:09
tray on any flat surface that you've got
2:12
available the standard kit comes with an
2:14
enamel mug it's secured with magnets so
2:16
the chances of it flying anywhere a slim
2:18
awesome design choice you also get a
2:20
phone stand great if you're following a
2:22
tutorial whilst you're painting or
2:25
catching up on a series The version I'm
2:26
using has some storage racks for your
2:29
paint and an LED light the lighting in
2:32
my house is crap for painting So I
2:35
really love this I stuck it into a power
2:37
bank via the USB cable and managed a
2:40
solid evening of painting you can also
2:42
get custom engraving as well so let's
2:44
take this home and see it performs
2:47
whilst I try and quarter this Terminator
2:50
going in with akd blue the great thing
2:52
with these Terminators is there's only
2:55
really two to three straight lines that
2:57
you need to paint the but cover thing
2:59
being the first one and then the top of
3:01
the armor being the second maybe the
3:03
crotch the rest are quite small patches
3:06
and and generally okay to do the Aquilla
3:09
very kindly gets in the way I took the
3:11
helmet one angle at a time and that
3:13
seemed all right I plan to weather these
3:16
up anyway to cover up any mistakes or
3:18
splodges next up from the comfort of my
3:20
own home I'm blacking out the details
3:22
putting on some chippy highlights and
3:24
then trying to add some glazes to that
3:27
blue to give it a bit more shape and
3:29
match what I've done with the
3:31
airbrushing shading down with the dark
3:33
blue and then up with the light it's a
3:34
bit rough in places but definitely
3:37
better for it using the same duap blue
3:39
for some highlights on the blue
3:41
following that same sort of chippy
3:42
method and then I'm just basing in the
3:44
rest of the colors and adding a few
3:45
highlights here and there and then I'm
3:47
ready to take it back to the office for
3:49
an oil wash thoroughly enjoyed my time
3:51
painting on the sofa and the hobby deck
3:53
is awesome so back in the studio it's a
3:55
quick coat of gloss then breaking out
3:57
the oils and odorless Spirits I love get
3:59
tired of watching it shoot around the
4:00
miniature this is always really good fun
4:03
because I'm a bit messy I've always got
4:04
to clean up afterwards using a damp
4:07
brush damp with spirits and then wiping
4:10
away any
4:12
imperfections with the transfers these
4:15
guys have three swords on the puldon
4:17
which I'm going to grab off a dark
4:18
Angel's upgrade sheet I think I
4:21
contaminated the brush that I'd used
4:23
with Spirits however as when I went to
4:25
apply them they just disintegrated
4:28
brutal freehanded
4:34
is I was definitely found wanting here I
4:37
feel like this was some of my best
4:39
airbrush work to date on this mini but
4:42
my brush skills were were lacking a bit
4:45
I improved my sort of banana shaped
4:47
swords a bit by cutting back in with the
4:49
blue to try and straighten up some of
4:51
the angles and yeah just kind of decided
4:54
to to leave it there m vanish over and
4:57
then just the metallics to finish we
4:58
haven't really used kill in ages on the
5:01
channel so wanted to give them a go
5:03
definitely not used to how thick the
5:05
paints are and it took a while to get a
5:08
dilution I was happy with I'm not going
5:09
to say that I don't like using them I
5:12
think I'm just not not used to them uh
5:14
I've been using a lot of valo game Air
5:16
at the minute and these are very
5:18
different n oil and R and flesh shade
5:20
for the silver and gold I've been using
5:22
quite matte Shades recently and I don't
5:24
know if I like them over metallics the
5:27
shades from Workshop kind of dry
5:29
slightly shiny so going to give them a
5:31
go for metallics fluo green for the
5:33
lights red for the eyland done some
5:37
erors here and there some highs and lows
5:39
I really like the yellow the Blue's a
5:41
bit messy but you get the idea of the
5:42
shading I need to spend a bit more time
5:45
cleaning up the oil wash too I think but
5:47
all in all first successor chapter
5:49
Marine that I've painted and I think
5:52
I've successfully quoted it so I'm
5:53
pretty happy I can definitely see why GW
5:56
don't put these guys front and center on
5:58
boxes it would
6:00
absolutely put me off starting an army
6:03
it' be very very time intensive has been
6:05
super fun painting this one Marine has
6:08
been a blast a kill team potentially an
6:11
army absolutely not massive respect to
6:15
anyone that does send me pictures of it
6:17
I want to see anyway uh yeah let's go
6:20
and see what Jeff draws first Disciples
6:22
of calaban who
6:25
the
6:28
thanks all right okay Disciples of
6:31
calaban are a fleet-based chapter that
6:34
strikes with blistering speed they were
6:35
founded an M37 under circumstances that
6:38
have never been disclosed rumors abound
6:41
of their creation and Unforgiven
6:43
chapters theorize that they were created
6:45
for the pursuit of the Renegade known as
6:47
Cipher they bear oh i't gone a minute
6:51
they're always chasing somebody aren't
6:53
they they never do anything new I think
6:55
I'm going to go the buer and Artis Opus
6:58
method and do some dry brushing for that
7:00
greens that should make it look pretty
7:01
good and I think I'm going to have to
7:03
push a little bit on the brightness cuz
7:04
they're going to be the rest of is going
7:06
to be black I'll start as I've done
7:08
before with this sort of thing I've
7:09
going with calaban green as my base coat
7:13
which I'll then slowly blend through
7:15
with warpstone green and then eventually
7:18
get all the way up to mute but I'm going
7:21
to do this through Dry brushing on my
7:23
texture pad and just push it and push it
7:26
till it goes through so hopefully not
7:29
getting it looking too much like
7:30
salamanders will be the
7:32
plan I repainted all of the black after
7:35
the undercoat with black Legion paint so
7:38
it gave me space if I made any mistakes
7:40
I highlighted it with administratum gray
7:43
using the culter paint method of Tippy
7:45
tappy highlights basically meaning I did
7:47
a scratched effect throughout all of the
7:49
black the Aquilla the Crux terminatus on
7:52
the shoulder and the matching one
7:54
underneath were all painted with a mid
7:56
gray and then highlighted with a light
7:58
gray I then used the panel liner just to
8:01
get into all the little grooves on the
8:03
two
8:04
symbols as per the image the storm
8:07
Bolter is just gunmetal effect I give it
8:10
a quick washover with non oil the wing
8:12
skull and ammunition has been painted in
8:16
retributor gold with a with a quick wash
8:19
of raikin Flesh
8:21
heed the lenses were done in the tried
8:24
and tested method of a red base orange
8:27
highlight and then just two little white
8:28
dots right at the very ends of the
8:31
lenses the last thing I did was to give
8:34
the green armor a weathered and
8:35
scratched effect I did this by going
8:37
back to calaban green and using that as
8:40
the dark scratch color and using mute as
8:43
the Highlight Edge alongside
8:48
it a disciple of calaban all
8:51
completed for what I thought was going
8:54
to be a really boring looking miniature
8:56
black against Green I actually quite
8:58
like him
8:59
I really went to town on the scratching
9:01
to try and make him and the battle
9:03
damage to make him look as interesting
9:04
as possible and it's created quite a
9:06
Punchy looking green effect I'm quite
9:09
pleased he's no blood Angel to look at
9:13
but yeah he looks fine he looks like he
9:15
uh he's Dark Angel adjacent I'm quite
9:18
pleased with how that came out for what
9:20
is a relatively simple paint Scheme
9:23
yeah go and look for Cipher off your pop
9:26
so for my final Marine I've just drawn
9:28
angels of redemption another split
9:29
scheme thankfully only half this time
9:31
let's just dive in starting off the same
9:34
as last time and getting my priming out
9:35
of the way with the ultra black primer
9:37
but then I'm going to use a brown as a
9:39
base coat on this
9:45
one back to my Tamia flat white and
9:48
speaking of over thinning I think I did
9:50
that here few mistakes few bits of
9:52
spider webbing as you can see I mixed up
9:54
a bit more of a concentrated mix and
9:56
then went over it again and hopefully
9:58
sorted it for airbrushing I've really
10:00
been enjoying Tamia flat white I've
10:02
tried using inks but had problems with
10:04
reactivation at a various degree of
10:07
leaving things for hours and sometimes
10:09
even days so I'm I think I'm just
10:11
avoiding them from from here on in yeah
10:14
can't recommend this enough time to get
10:16
the bone sorted I'm going to use a thin
10:17
down mix of skeleton horde all over I
10:20
think I probably went a bit too
10:22
heavy but at the time I thought it was
10:24
okay moving on to the green I wanted to
10:27
try and use my work on the zeni so tried
10:29
out a contrast paint in the hope that
10:32
I'd get a bit of a gradient built in
10:36
having done all that work previously in
10:38
short it didn't work and I just painted
10:41
over it with black green from AK and
10:43
approached it with a similar glazing
10:45
techniques the last
10:47
[Music]
10:54
[Applause]
10:56
[Music]
10:58
time
11:01
[Music]
11:05
had a brief Interruption from this
11:07
ladybug so threw that outside and then
11:10
chipped up the
11:13
green I know pale sand gets a lot of
11:15
love online but I've really been
11:16
enjoying buff recently so chipped up the
11:19
bone with that I should have highlighted
11:22
the bone with the airbrush like I did
11:24
with the yellow um but we live and learn
11:27
it Strays a bit too far into muddy is
11:31
bone here and there I think the contrast
11:33
between the brown and the bone is is is
11:36
quite strong so we meet again whilst I'm
11:37
just waiting for a layer of gloss
11:39
varnish to dry I'm going to go in with
11:40
an oil wash just to get the
11:43
recesses can't be bothered using two
11:46
colors for each side or one color for
11:49
each side so I think I might just mix a
11:52
black and a brown together and and see
11:54
what happens I also need to try and do
11:55
the transfer and I'm looking at the um
11:58
at the shoulder pad
11:59
and I I think I might be able to chop
12:03
up a raven guard symbol and then plun a
12:07
skull in the middle of it that's going
12:09
to be the plan if I can uh if I can find
12:13
find
12:24
everything chopping up the transfers
12:26
work pretty well I wouldn't want to do
12:27
this for a whole Army but it was quite
12:30
rewarding having spent the time cutting
12:32
all those uh decals up and then having
12:35
it actually
12:44
work back to the air metallics same wash
12:46
as last time jobs are good overall I'd
12:50
probably say I'm not quite as happy with
12:52
this one as my penitent blade I think
12:55
the bone lets it down a bit quite happy
12:58
with the green maybe too much Brown not
13:01
enough of a highlight I'm not 100% sure
13:04
where I went wrong I think you know I
13:06
could say it's it's Grim dark but I
13:09
think it's just a bit a bit muddy
13:11
especially at the back so maybe more
13:13
white and then less of the contrast
13:16
maybe I don't know let me know what you
13:17
think all that side though it definitely
13:19
looks like an angel of redemption so I
13:21
will take it Guardians of the Covenant
13:25
comes up with these bloody names right
13:27
let's have a look at them it's not known
13:29
from what founding the warrior monk of
13:30
the Guardians the Covenant came only
13:32
that they too are Unforgiven they
13:35
adopted home World morath 7
13:41
possibly they are looking like they are
13:44
lead Bel and quite simple scheme
13:47
actually black shoulder pads they yeah I
13:49
think I'm going to be all right with
13:50
these you know um yeah ah there we go
13:53
actual some Terminator ones as well okay
13:56
yeah so let's get cracking on with them
13:58
as as well then so after priming the
14:01
Terminator black he was then primed
14:03
again with lead Bel spray from Games
14:06
Workshop so I decided to paint all of
14:09
the black bits first being the shoulders
14:11
and the unders suit and both of the
14:12
weapons
14:14
casing and did this mainly because I
14:17
thought if I get the black onto the lead
14:20
Bel it's easily corrected once I'd done
14:23
that I then went ahead and used a very
14:25
thin down mix of basilicum Gray and
14:29
contrast medium to be able to get a just
14:32
enough that I took the slightly strange
14:34
shine of lead belter off the miniature
14:37
once that was all done I went to my
14:39
favorite and tried and tested method
14:42
when it comes to painting anything
14:43
silver is I cracked out the panel liner
14:46
my one coming from Tamia and went round
14:49
the whole miniature doing my best to
14:51
catch all of the small grooves give the
14:53
miniature just a bit more depth all of
14:55
the lead belter armor was highlighted
14:57
with AK dark aluminium and this gave it
15:00
a nice Punchy effect I also at the same
15:03
point in time went in and did some small
15:05
scratches mainly on the legs and the
15:07
Power Fist I highlighted the Aquilla the
15:10
Crux terminatus and the matching one on
15:12
his knee all in standard gray followed
15:16
by a light gray and a very small spot
15:18
highlight of white I used a medium gray
15:21
just to give the black shoulder pads a
15:23
quick Edge
15:25
highlight the terminator's lenses were
15:28
faed by painted in Black just to leave a
15:30
nice Outer Edge I then used AK white to
15:33
fill them in I then went in with frost
15:35
heart contrast paint filled the eye
15:37
socket once it was dry gave it another
15:39
dash of the white the Terminators
15:41
actually have one leg halfed into red
15:45
which wasn't really in me planned to be
15:47
fair but um I think I'm going to have to
15:49
crack out some tape and put that in that
15:52
way I think it'll be fine see how we get
15:54
on although it was difficult to do with
15:56
using the trailing leg with it being the
15:58
one which doesn't have the crooks
16:01
Terminator symbol on it I had to try and
16:05
get the tape in there as best I could I
16:07
wasn't massively sure how this was going
16:09
to work out I took it as near as I could
16:11
and then just filled in at the very very
16:13
end left it to dry took the tape off and
16:16
it looked if I do say so myself pretty
16:18
good to make the leg of the Marine match
16:20
the rest of the Marine I gave it some
16:22
light chipping after that was the bit
16:24
that I've been dreading most which was
16:26
the decals managed to find reasonably
16:29
large white swords on a black Templar
16:32
sheet and thankfully we had two of those
16:35
sheets so we got these swords and
16:37
decided what angles we think they would
16:40
work at and cross them
16:42
[Music]
16:54
over oh he nailed it in a
16:57
one
16:59
you you
17:02
zenos once both lots of decals were dry
17:05
I went back in and I chipped them up
17:06
with the base colors that was underneath
17:08
them here he is Terminator of the
17:11
Guardians of the Covenant
17:13
chapter I thought like the last one he
17:16
was going to be a bit boring if I'm
17:18
honest silver Marine black shoulder pads
17:21
thought yeah but I'm actually really
17:23
pleased with the results I did a little
17:25
bit of chipping on him which has helped
17:26
him stand out a bit more and as much as
17:29
I was dreading doing it I think the
17:31
half red stri the red stripe on the leg
17:34
has worked out quite well decals look
17:36
good they've just helped the miniature
17:38
punch through a little bit you look all
17:39
right little man off you go you can go
17:42
and help your make fine Cipher as well
17:45
so there we go success of chapter is
17:46
complete uh I've had an absolute blast
17:48
um and thank you so much for watching if
17:50
you've made it this far hopefully you
17:52
have two if you're thinking about doing
17:54
a Haled or a quartered sort of Space
17:56
Marine um go for it it's it's
18:00
not as scary maybe as uh as as you might
18:05
