"You might have 'twigged' that they have bits of tree growing out of them". That was an awful pun, but I laughed.

Omg, that 'non-outtake' at the end where Duncan laughs and talks to a disembodied voice makes him actually appear human. Now I have doubt about my theory he is a perfect Mini-painting robot.

Hello all. Try this - Paint your zombie flesh bubblegum pink - then a full strength wash of Beil-Tan green / let dry. Then a full strength wash of Reikland fleshshade. The green wash will mute the pink and the fleshshade will even everything out. Your base zombie skin will now be a mottled pink/green/reddish brown. To highlight, take a normal skin tone and thin it down with the Beil-tan green.

I always appreciate the lessons you teach, many thanks from a very new painter.

As a beginner painter I would love a new fresh tutorial video series on how to layer, highlight, shade, gloss, etc. That would be amazing Duncan, I find most of these on the WH site but a new fresh series with a bit more detail would be amazing. Thank you for all your hard work and I wish you the best!!

That pale skin tone is on point, been looking for a good one and finally found it.

Wooo!! Great start of the weekend! Duncan video! Thank you very much! And Have a great weekend everybody

[MrEScience]

This is exactly what I needed for my new Gellerpox Infected! Thank you, I am loving the Two Thin Coats line.

Excellent presentation once again from Duncan and the D.R.P.A team, thanks heaps always a pleasure to watch.
Fade in/out image and backing track, editing, script and even light comic relief, even if it was a little wooden 😂 so professional…a shining example of the next level of fantastic content and creators that we the fickle viewers hope for and why we love YouTube
5 stars.

I know this is an older video, but I got to say Duncan you are an inspiration. When I first got into the hobby, I watched up SO many of your videos. Even on models that i don't use..
I'm more of an AOS and fantasy player painter.
But I always found your tutorials extremely insightful and helpful.

I doubt you'll see this. But just wanted to out that out there.

I backed your Two Thin Coats paint Kickstarter at the highest level and was even able to get in for the early bird.

Could not press the help fund button quick enough. Even before asking the wife.. lol

Eagerly waiting for my KS rewards. Even just bought a paint rack specifically for your paints.

Keep up a the amazing work you do for the community.

What an awesome and timely issue.
Was mentally preparing to paint my first helmetless head and there are tons of ideas I can use.
Plus, I will definitely use these ideas for my future Nurgle bois.

[thomascrofts]

Perfect! Have been searching for some good zombie painting methods - hopefully there's something in here I can use...

[bitzbox]

Really useful. I have plenty of these left to paint! Really liking the grey flesh the most

[TheKillingBean]

"A freshly dead Zombie", never heard those words together :D

[GumshoeClassic]

Perfect timing, my Rotters arrived in the mail this weak :)

[nicolassainz-trapaga]

Amazing work, you always teach me a lot with your painting tutorials, I really appreciate it. Thank you for the help and I will be waiting for the next one

[vdka]

given me some inspiration for my custom Star Player for Blood Bowl necromantic team based on the Tar man from Return of the living dead

[michaelgilmore]

These are fantastic, I was hoping to see some frostbitten/ice cold skin tones but these are still some good inspiration

[ryankrankowski]

Zombie hordes look the best on the table with varying tones. Really like these schemes.

[SarhcBannitoot]

This is great! I’ve been thinking about getting a second box of Ghouls for Fallout and this will look awesome!
