What i do is basecoat moletow petrol. Then I spray titanium white from a 45' a little bit then from above until the model reads as white. You get a really nice cold white. Then i panel line with paynes grey oil paint.
I find soulblight grey shade is incredible for quick whites – I know you've used it on a white scars marine before. How would you say the oil wash compares?
One idea for potentially preventing you from accidentally painting on your crisp white armour; could you spray a layer or two of satin varnish over the model once the armour is complete but before you do anything else? This would seal in the white and, theoretically, act as a 'save' point to let you remove wayward paint splashes afterwards? What do you think?
I was concerned painting cpt Messinius because I felt I couldn’t push up from the white scar spray. Your highlight here look very muted too. I was thinking of an all over of apothecary white to give me room to come in with a punchier highlight. Thoughts?
Also, how does the oil paint compare to the enamel based panel liners? I used a Tamiya brown panel liner for Messinius and it was way more messy and didn’t flow into the recesses as well as I expected.
Great video as always 👍 I've tried the oil wash before, however when I come to cleaning up the excess, I always end up stripping al thrl paint and going back to plastic. What am I doing wrong? Please help! 🙏
Can you recommend a few brush sizes? I absolutely love the way your brushes hold form and snap, and want to get a few. Wanted to pick a few up for painting infantry sized models
1 – What was the blue undercoat spray you used? 2 – How did you cleanup the few spillages you had on to the white armour? For example, the red from the apron 3 – Would all the colours you used for the armour also work well for, say, sisters of battle?
Don't know how I missed it fast forwarded/rewinded several times but can some plz tell me at which point does he do the purple on that tank?? Only reason I clicked.
I really like your content coach would like to know what ratio oil to odorless thinner did you use than you as i want to want to try it with some white armor and skull bits.

Shoutout to giving us the answer in the first 2 minutes versus waiting until the last minute.
I legit watched the rest of the video just because i could enjoy it!
What blue did you use as the undercoat?
That blue undercoat can be macragge blue, right? Though I would think that spraying white over would discolor to a lighter blue
Just such an incredible vid for how to do this guy right and make it an ease – dare I say actually fun!
This is fantastic
Did you gloss varnish before applying the oil wash?
Awesome footage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lovely work!

Payne's Gray is hands down the best gray on the market. Its a great color
I like push fit kit.
Which AK interactive white did you use btw? The ‘Extreme white’ or the white from the 3rd gen white acrylics set?
Absolutely LOVE the non citadel paints you used

wow this looks fantastic coach just curious would this work on corax white base? or does it have to be a pure white?
Great video
This is awesome! Three quick questions:
1 – What was the blue undercoat spray you used?
2 – How did you cleanup the few spillages you had on to the white armour? For example, the red from the apron
3 – Would all the colours you used for the armour also work well for, say, sisters of battle?
Thanks!
Very timely video for me. I’m starting a White Scars army for Horus Heresy…
How long did you leave the oil wash to dry before going back in with the others? Looking good!
How do you feel about Tamiya Panel Liner…it’s enamel based so a clear coat may be required?
I’m in that rabbit whole where I want to use multiple channels techniques but yours is pretty ace.
Looks great!

As Silver Templars would the chest piece not be yellow with a black background? Or is it gold because it's an apothecary?
Love this scheme, 10/10
Lol i figured this out yesterday! Same model/same reason.
Did you varnish the White before adding the Payne's Grey? Or can you get a good capillary action without? Great job 👍🏾

So good
