Yes. Doing in-depth tutorials on different materials/part are a life saver. instead of trying to find certain aspects of a long video and then having to replay that over and over while painting.

The status face from Wolfenstein look is a win for me.

[SeppukoGaming]

It's such an amazing thing to have such an array of "tutorials" to pick from.

You can get something like " how to paint faces " by Jon, which is something that hits a wide range of use.

Then you got Vincy V. with a tutorial on how to paint the big toenail on a Spacewolf's right foot during a Bloodmoon.

Thanks for yet another amazing video with a lot to learn

videos like this are very helpful to the beginning painter. Good for understanding lighting and the transition from the bottom of the face to the top.

New ice breaker - “Your Nasolabial folds are top tier.”

I enjoy video that highlight ways to possibly conserve time in painting. The 30 minute face is the "best bang for your buck" so to speak. And pointing that out points at the best way to utilize my time painting, especially when army painting and not display or competition painting.

[ZombieMonkey]

Definitely prefer these videos, because these are the ones that will actually make me paint better- as opposed to other painting videos where you just watch someone paint with zero direction on how to replicate the end goal.

[robertralls]

Ninjon=my hero!!! Yes, more content like this. Always looking to pick up painting tips. Thanks for what you do!

[nicv]

This has become my go to video to show friends new to the hobby on your channel and has, as you said it would, made painting heads a delight. This video does leave me with questions about painting other skin tones especially introducing warmth and shadow on dark skin. That's not even taking into consideration other alien physiologies or even space marine skin turning pitch black to adapt to UV in space.

[duncanmcdane]

Good one, thanks. I think the 30 minutes one has the most expression ( not only because of the design but because it's a bit "harsher" painted ), would definitely go for that!

[richard]

I always find some take away from your videos, regardless of the specific subject, but this one in particular was really insightful. Especially where you mentioned returning to the painting table after a break - I thought it was just me.

I would love to see something like this for monochromatic paint schemes as I searched high and low to no avail recently.

Keep up the great work!

I think your right there is a minimal difference between 30 and 60 min version. I'm not a competitive painter, but I do still Glean some knowledge on painting faces from it. Oh, and your soundtrack has a little 80's vibe in it which I love.

[DigitalOrigami]

Yes, definitely more of these kinds of videos. I’m excited to try this out and I never thought of using such a range of colours to get the final result.

[octopushat]

I haven't painted a face in over a year, and watching this video has me pumped to challenge myself with a few over the weekend! I'd love to see more videos like this -- maybe even more face vids diving into different skin tones and female faces.

[lorinolsen]

These kind of videos are my absolute favorites of yours. I love hearing your thoughts and seeing your process on painting something, it really helps me to think through the painting decisions I make when I am working on something similar.

[andyswilkinson]

A+ on the music choice in this one. Perfect face painting music.

[Gundumb_guy]

I didn’t paint warhammer or minis for that matter but I do paint 1/35 figures for traditional scalemodeling so I always love to see these type of videos! I really struggle with faces so I need all the help I can get

[HeatherSanto]

Yes! These tutorials are what I love the best. I have to say, I'm loving the 30 minute one the best. You are amazing, thank you!

[waittues]

I love this. Thank you. I'm gonna use this today. Wasn't even gonna paint today. Just feeling inspired to slay the grey.

I’m getting back into the hobby now in my late 30s after dabbling in it as a teen, and I absolutely appreciate these detailed videos. Hobby time is a precious resource for me so understanding best practices and where to spend my time improving in the hobby goes a long way.

Also, this type of video will be timeless because someone can look back years from now to find it and still get lots of useful information and your experience on the topic.
