I'm always surprised how big a brush you use for detail work - I guess you select brushes for their points more than their size?

Did you know? The Reach belongs to the Forsworn.

That's some pretty graceful fine-brushwork you've got there, great job! If I end up making powerblobs for my Imperial Guard, that inspires me to do some effects on the power weapons, be it lightning or something else

The key to being able to enjoy the game in real life and also be a member of this online community is to know where you draw the line. What someone online on the other side of the world that you've never met says should never deter you from taking a unit for being either weak or OP. The community is a great place to come for tactics advice, and there is a lot of very sound opinions and idea out there, but at the end of the day, play the game how you want to... Don't worry about the hordes of Dakka descending on your gaming club to arrest you for taking one heldrake or not using a screamerstar. Knowing the standard opinion (and that's all it is) on what is good/bad and conforming to that opinion religiously are two entirely separate things.

You make the best painting tutorials on youtube, hands down. Where did you learn all of these techniques?

Have you done any videos about painting tanks? I'd love to learn from you how to paint IG tanks (specifically steel legion from the old Armageddon codex) and Ork trukks/wagons (speed freeks, also from the old Armageddon Codex.)

Thank you so much!

The video is having some buffering issues, so if you answered it sorry, but is this the same technique you would use to put lightning on NL?

She actually did a Night Lords tutorial, should be able to search for it.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."

This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

When people ask, "What's the point in understanding everything?" they've just disqualified themselves from using questions and should disappear in a puff of paradox. But they don't understand and just continue existing, which are also their only two strategies for life.

You have such a steady hand. Every time I try to paint a fine line like that it looks like a train wreck. Steady and strong, then crash and burn.
Your tutorials are great, keep them up!

I don't care how old this tutorial is... just by watching you paint, you have improved my brushstrokes and my own concept of base/layer work!

THANK YOU!!
