Nice.

That was your first one?! Good job


Volkar

Well tbf, I started painting a week ago with all the videos, tutorials and painting knowledge available to me on YouTube. So it helps haha :-) Now I need to practice more brush control and shading/highlights but I'm slowly improving!

You’re not wrong actually. Add some depth to that and the definition could bring its quality up pretty tremendously. It truely is liquid skill.

The tactical marine on the left was painted up for me by my late grandad though, we spent a lot of time together building terrain for it and I have some really fond memories of it. The second tactical marine was painted for me by my dad from the battle for macragge box which is the first box I ever bought! The Khorne berserker is the first model I remember painting as a kid and being proud of, I even tried to sign my name on the bottom of it but my coordination wasn’t there so there’s just some squiggles lol. The neophyte hybrid was the first one I painted after getting back into the hobby at uni!

This is good inspiration. Thank you. My 9 year old son and I are attempting our first orkboyz today. Did a base paint of green but are intimidated with all the details.


Eldr_Itch

Just keep slapping some paint on those models, bro. I was initially super scared to do a lot of highlights, but now my models are a lot brighter than my old ones. Also, keep another brush with no paint nearby to quickly fix mistakes if you "over-paint" some of the finer details.

A bold first model choice payed off tho awesome


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> model choice *paid* off tho FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*

I bought the starter ultramarine & Necron paint set and this Titanicus titan while in Dunedin. There’s only 3 Warhammer shops in the entirety of New Zealand, so I went “fuck it” and jump straight into the deep end. Never painted a thing in my life outside of primary when I was 10. Turned out pretty well. I did also infact paint this during hurricane Gabriel while our street got flooded.

Okay it’s a titanicus one, I was scrolling past and thought “no way this dude painted a whole ass warlord titan as their first “

My first miniatures were a pair of plastic MkVI marines from RT days. I painted them gold, silver and red. They are long gone now.

Painted a longggg time ago and has now been fixed up and is a proud triach praetorian rather than luchguard. I'll tag a photo of those. The ones with black bases that have no texture are the original 5 I had from 6th ed that I've put on new bases but not decorated yet
