Hi fellow Wizards and Necromancers! Hope you are having a great summer. In the second tutorial of this week, I will show you how to speed paint Grimdark Blood Angels. With this technique, you can achieve beautiful Blood Angels in a very short period of time - under 60 minutes if you are using helmets on your miniatures. 

If you would like to speed paint faces as well, here is my tutorial about it:

With this tutorial, I'm launching a new hashtag: #BeautifulSpeedPainting

What it means: I am aiming at creating a multitude of tutorials that allow you to achieve amazing results in a very, very short timeframe. I encourage you to use this hashtag on your social media too, to promote the idea of painting well in a short period of time. It doesn't always have to take hours and hours to paint nice looking minis after all! 

Thank you very much for supporting me – it means the world to me! I dream of being able to paint and make tutorials full time, so if you like my Patreon – please tell your friends about it. It would make a massive difference to me and hopefully it will be beneficial for your friends too :)

*Layer consistently = paint mixed in a 1:1 ratio with water.

*Glaze consistently = paint mixed in a 1:3 ratio with water.

Best wishes,

Mamikon

Hey Mamikon, can I ask what blues you’d use if you were to do this for ultramarines? I find the ultramarine contrast paint is awful in comparison to blood angels so curious what you’d go for ?

Hey Mamkion, back again with more questions :) I have been using either AK Black Wash or Streaking Grime for different chapters and its AMAZING. I have been playing around AK Black Wash on gold, and while it looks like a really cool cold metal, I wondered if you'd used any of the other washes to try and keep the warmer tone? After using these AK washes, I find the skeleton horde or sephia pretty rubbish so I wondered if there was an AK alternative you'd use for Gold to keep the warm tones?

Hi man, I came back to this amazing tutorial for my Flesh Tearers army and was wondering if it would be possible to apply some matte varnish after the inital red base before the wash step ir order to avoid whiping out the paint when you apply the thiner?

Hey, thank for video) Unfortunately, I only prime with an airbrush. Which primer would be suitable for this? Will any white one work?

Hello, is there a possible alternative to the wash and thinner you were using? It’s difficult for me to find online, it seems out of stock anywhere sadly. Also thank you so much, the tutorial is amazing!
