I worked on a mini for quite some time and I was really, really disappointend and sad about the result. I was by chance watching this video and thought "its messed up anyways so lets try this fancy NMM thing on the unpainted axe before I quit". And man the result was really great! I even found motivation to repaint some messy parts of the mini and it became my most favorite one ever :)
This video really changed my hobby experience from disappointing to superb!
Now I am looking forward to my next paintjob :)

I watched tons of tutorials about NMM, hours and hours. And then Vince the Wizard comes in and explain it all in 11 minutes. One of the shortest and most useful youtube video I've seen in a long time. Thank you very much Mr. Wizard!

I know this is an older video, but I have been struggling with finding a good example and teaching method to help with my NMM. This has completely changed how I approach weapons and other NMM concepts. Thank you a ton for uploading this video so many years ago.

Triangles! Man I always felt something was wrong but never could put my finger on it. That blew my mind! Thx Vince! Great video =)

Loved the tip on triangles of light, that's a new bit of information for me!

Topic request? Rust over NMM?

[cidahl]

The one dislike is the chemist who designed runefang steel.

I have really worried about screwing up NMM because almost every other YouTuber, even the good ones, seems to make it feel complex. Then I find Vince's video and now I want to got and paint it right now! Thanks Vince, as always, your videos are amazing!

[Robzilla]

Outstanding and succinct couldn't ask for more. Please stay safe.

Prefect simple breakdown. It's a technique I've always been put off from trying because I don't think I understand light placement enough yet. But this is really helpful!! Thanks 😁

NMM is so intimidating for me as a new painter, you make it seem so simple!!

[MaskedRiderChris]

That's mighty impressive, and honestly? I need to man up and start delving into the NMM thing more. You removing the mojo from it is a vast help to that end!

[dahump]

Vince what red are you using, because its looks amazing

[kofmanmi]

looks bad, looks bad, looks bad, "blink", looks amazing! great vid, thank you

[liuyi]

One of those topics that everyone made videos on, yet remain intimidating for everyone else. Gonna try that triangle thing, thanks for the great tips as always.

Lists of paints in the staert is a new feat. ? Never saw it before, however greatly appreciated.

I was asking earlier today on Ninjon’s channel for a bit of a detailed demonstration on how to make softer blends, and this comes up a couple of hours later.
I will assume you heard my plea and are able to work at light speed.

[jadeeh]

first time someone makes a difference between NMM and NM steel, thx Vince great vid

[Dje]

Great vid as always!

Topic request: NMM on curved metal (thinking specifically on a Lord of Change’s staff

[merek]

NMM is something I practice at a lot and improve in a little, but thats okay there's always another mini to paint.

[Navtyr]

Amazing yet simple guide. I liked the thing about triangles, makes sense.
It would be very helpful if you could do a video about various shapes and angles of light for NMM and just quickly block out where shadows and highlights would fall in various situations. For example large flat surfaces perpendicular to the sky like Exalted Deathbringer mini (ruinous axe) was tricky to make it work for me and i had to scrape off and redo the whole axe like 3 or 4 times to get a decent result that sells the effect.
