How to paint Ultramarines Space Marine by LBursley

Here is #6 in the series.

I like how you did the gold.

Question for you chief: I use black for a basecoat. How would my paint change in terms of the blue, for painting on black?

**LBursley**

I believe the Regal Blue covers pretty well. But with less coats the overall look of the model would be darker. I'm sure the model would look great using the colors in the tutorial, the finished product would just have a bit more contrast.

**ted777ccg**

So, maybe if I did the couple of coats of Regal, then maybe a coat of 1:1 Regal, and Ultra? And for the extreme highlight, maybe a greater mix of Ultra and Grey, or a mix of Ultra, and Ice Blue?

Yo les! Can you post up a pic like you do the rest of the tutes you do? I can't watch videos from work.

**LBursley**

The model isnt finished. That's why it's only pt.1.

When finished I'll throw the picture up

**LBursley**

Video 2 is up and so is the finished pic! Enjoy!

Hooray for part two! Let's be off to YouTube, then...

EDIT: Watched the video and liked it very much! I liked Ash's comment of "having a green 'COMPLETE' stamp" smash onto the finished picture showcase of the model at the end. How about a red 'ASSIGNMENT' stamp at the begining of a tutorial series also?...

I really appreciate the darker shade of Ultra in this video - this will be a good basis for me to do my Crimson Fists.

Hi, I a new to the forums. I love the videos only I am awful at maths and fairly new to painting at this standard and things like watering down paints I haven't ever taken notice of before.

But what my problem is I don't understand the ratios. Is it paint to water, or water to paint? Also for example REGAL BLUE Diluted 2:1. What would I do? Thanks. Excuse the low intelligence.

My friend will appreciate this, video's can often be easier then just pictures as you can se the progress

The ratio is 2:1 Paint/water . I use dropper bottles to aid in this, so it would be 2 drops paint/ 1 drop water for the 2:1 ratio.

Seriously dude, what's the brand of the brush you used? It's so awesome. I used GW brush and the bristle keep coming apart while painting

Great videos. I'd like to see some CSM paint jobs like Emperors Children.
