Duncan Rhodes

"Pour sume tea in ya mug, ya dun't need very much, just... Like that. Makes the Duncan paint better on the miniature."

"And I know I say it a lot, but it's important now ta be as neat as pussible - It will take time, but the results are absulutely worff it."

Games Workshop resident builder and painter, which means he is going to use exclusively Citadel stuff,. But at least he actually teaches you how to invest your expensive paints and tools for maximum effect.

Duncan is easily recognizable for his hot accent, using every possible paint from the Citadel's ranges while actually making it look reasonable, his firm belief in THIN YOUR PAINTS and making overall beautiful models in Games Workshop tutorials. Sadly these tutorials are, as most videos on the Warhammer TV channel, blocked from having comments, which limits the possibility to make questions and bring suggestions. Of course, you can always ask some other professional but you know it's cool to ask the official guy.

The man needs to get his own personal channel, where he paints his own stuff and can interact with viewers, but unfortunately that is as unlikely as it would be awesome.

Friend to All Newcomers

With the release of the Battle for Vedros starter set primarily aimed to youngsters, GW has posted some new introductory videos where Duncan shows the newcomers, how to cut, paste and paint their brand new minis. This potentially saved thousands of minis from getting THIN YOUR PAINTS-ed while showing the more humane face of the corporation (bonus points as the tutorials don't require you to buy half of the entire Citadel range to get your models a decent look). Many old neckbeards feel envious of kids who nowadays have access to these kind of tutorials so they won't ruin their starter sets, progress always comes too late.

Tips from Duncan

And here are some points good Duncan would like to remark:

• THIN YOUR PAINTS, by submerging your brush in water and then testing it over some tissue.
• Always give your paints a good shake.
• Clean your brushes, particularly after using metallic paints (and reds).
• Many thin layers are far better than a single thick layer.
• Nuln Oil and Agrax Earthshade are good, buy lots of them, and use a large brush.
• Use detail brushes for highlighting.
• Always base your miniatures the same way you base the rest of your army. (No shit)

He is truly, a pretty cool guy and will encourage you to THIN YOUR PAINTS, coz moltipl thin layers ur far betta than a single thick un!
