We sit down for another painting tutorial from John as he shows off what you can do to make the Carrion Lancer look great.

As you can see the techniques on show here really do reveal a fantastic method for painting up a larger creature in your Waiqar force.

What’s the stuff the paint is on i.e the paper pallette

It looks like a wet palette. Use parchment paper (not wax paper) over a wet sponge or wet paper towel. A little bit of water is absorbed through the parchment and keeps the paint wet so you can extend the working time.

Yeah, it looks like John is using wax paper which has detached from the sponge.

That looks great! What would you say the total time was from start to finish?

I was really curious about that as well. I don’t mind the edits to the video but it’d be interesting to hear how long it took in total.

Actually, on this one, the “shininess” of the quickshade would have added something fun to the miniature, making it look more slimy.

Dunno… it’s nice but maybe i would have gone for more contrast with the carapace!^^

Fantastic job. Ditto for a new paint series. I’d love to see speed painting vs not with the same model. The different techniques used would be educational.

A great job John, love the mix of purple tone on the bottom and dark tone on the top.
