Speedpainting Truescale Space Marine

[DaRkRiOt32123]

How do you put on decals so easily!! XD i can never get decals on

[PretentiousPainters]

aw i wish the space maines were taller, there the size of a guardsman, just with more muscle which isnt right, but this is great.

[gcndavidmn]

Pretty damn fantastic there! I've never heard of true scale. I'd hate to think how much a true scale titan would cost.

[RyuHono]

nice nails both are angels dark and blood

[MrRabidCat]

You really like your SM's

[wpbeta2]

why cant i meet girls tht like warhammer :P

[MrYoursoup]

Why the fuck did you first undercoat it blue and then completely paint it black???

[Stijning]

I have a space marine captain who is holding a chainsword, and i've painted the chains of the chainsword red, and then drybrushed some parts of it, to make it look like it has tasted the fear of the enemy.

[Zakading]

this looks incredibly good (eventhough those wounds look a bit odd).

i'm quite new to warhammer 40k and just starting to do it but could you give me some advice how you get that perfect amount of paint on the brush? for me it's always either too much paaint on the same spot or no paint at all and i have to paint over it 5 times -_-

[bioniclego97]

Dark angels nails xD

[killa1triangle13]

Ha, dark angel transfers on your nails, great!

[tombstone200]

That's a big mini *now what im saying*

[dadak10]

nice truescale! i loled at ur dark angel nails xD

[TheBAOM]

YOU ARE AMAZING! IS YOUR WHOLE ARMY LIKE THIS?

[Zasalamel1423]

i so god dam wish they were all like this  i would never leave the hobby

[Antoniusan]

A truly awesome work of both building and painting a TrueScale, makes me want to try it.

The only thing that bugs me is that you always paint rust effects on Space Marines. Battle Scars and Damage on the Armor, sure, but Space Marines care more for their armor than their own lives, they should be immaculately cared for.

Other than that, you are an inspiration, Keep It Up!

[jrasm711]

is space wolves gray a bluwish hue gray thinking of doing a khador army in a like similure colour to space woves for the armor?

[filodeusz]

I do love your Gondor nails!

[99whiteman]

another great figure have been studying your technique's and apply them to my wolve's ,can you put a small description of the battle damage paint that you done on this marine please once again "AWSOME"

[reece8890]

WOOP WOOP Dark angel nails :P

[alaric007]

what kind of paint do you use fer this kind of projects? :)

[GirlPainting]

@alaric007 like always i use gw acrylic paints

[Asmusei]

@GirlPainting Wait, why use GW paints?!? I buy my own two oz. bottles from a local craft store for a buck less than the half ounce bottles do. GW already makes enough money off of us with their figures. :/

[elpedomasgrande1]

OMG Transfers on nails!

[reedy1871]

any

[reedy1871]

can you panit it any colour send me a message if u can or can not?

[GirlPainting]

@reedy1871 what did you mean? if i am able to paint him in any colour, or if i am allowed to paint him in any colour?

[Drbaden]

I liek your painted nails :D

[rabk294]

How do you get your basecoat down so smooth? Thanks for any reply.

[cheesebum55]

first girls take away our tv and now they are taking away warhammer and next are our souls lol

[14SKULL88]

your use of decals on your nails was a nice marine'y touch lol, great work too, ill be doing a project like this.

[blooboy12]

may i ask how you tend to your brushes? (how much paint do you put on the brush, how do you clean your brushes, ect) mine seem to wear down and fray fairly fast, i dont know if im just being too heavy handed when painting

[blooboy12]

may i ask how do you tend to your paint brushes and how much paint do you put on the brush when painting? mine seem to wear down fairly fast. im not sure if im just being too heavy handed when painting or something.

[Radiator95]

aslike haegr the mountain from the wolfblade or pasanius of the ultramarines fourth company

[Radiator95]

enter a truescale into golden demon :D

[MinTillMassacre]

I really enjoyed watching you paint this Space Marine. You have an amazing talent! And on a side note...I love your fingernail polish. ;D

[fiduskunstner]

Hi, what kind of basing material are you using? Is it GW or your own mix?

[GirlPainting]

@fiduskunstner just normal sand

[IMPERIALxFIST]

quick question....was it easier to you to paint this size model or the originals?

[GirlPainting]

@IMPERIALxFIST no differentz at all. for that the size different is to low.

[EmperorCricri]

Hey Alexandra! Great video and painting job! I really like your work.

Question: may you tell us what stuff / substance do you use to fix your models / bases on your paint pots? Is it glue tag?

Thanks for your answer(s)

Best regards.

[GirlPainting]

@EmperorCricri this stuff is called "Uhu Patafix" this is a clay to put posters on the wall, and it works great for holding minis wile painting. well, sometimes to good...i have twice riped of the mini from the base while atempting to get it loos after painting ;-)

[lysemads]

Nice nails! :D

[rougespeed85]

hello pleas look my videos and comments..am an Italian boy and painting 3 years....give me advice :-) tanks

[GirlPainting]

@rougespeed85 there is actualy no real advice i can give you. first your painting is good, and second its hard to realy see close details on the mins because of the camera angle and lighting. and i cant understand as third a single word from what you are saying in your videos because i just speak german and english.

[UselesswizarD]

Another great video Alexandra! I always enjoy watching your speed painting videos. However, in this case I'm just not a fan of the green smears coming out of what I'm assuming are wounds. It just looks too... Nurgle-ly.

[xXpaintjobXx]

yet again another grate vid! extremely grate video. i think it was about time some1 did something like this. well done again!

[GirlPainting]

@Deefkej like xSuperiorManx sayed befor, i used terminator shoulderpads. but i am not that good in modeling so i don´t model the trims.

[scandalousrogue]

awesome as always Alexandra!

[SteamTitan]

Is that any chapter in particular? Cause I don't recognize it but I'm not that great at recalling the chapters

[GirlPainting]

@SteamTitan self made second founding chapter called the sons of Ultramar

[SteamTitan]

@GirlPainting Ah got ya. Still trying to figure which group my Dirge Hounds should be an offshoot of.

[therealrob99]

very awesome. i have one question though, what was that you used on the transfer?

[GirlPainting]

@therealrob99 matt varnish

[xSuperiorManx]

Very good stuff. Of course a real Ultramarine would have been better, but oh well. ;)

And I personally don't find his head too small.

[xSuperiorManx]

@Deefkej He HAS shoulder pads. I think she used some Terminator shoulder pads to keep them in scale with the rest of the size-increased figure. Not all pads have that rim you miss here.

[Reaverhobbies]

god that thing's fricken huge, Im totally makin one :D great work!

[NaterPertater]

Will you paint a Land Speeder for us? I just bought a Land Speeder Storm and I am painting it yellow like your army :) Do you have one to show?

[philtdog]

Awesome work as always.

[lq4chevelle]

Awesome as always Alexandra! Too bad it is not feasible to make an entire army true-scale. Would be nice if that is how the marines came. =) Regardless, I love it.

[MrDreamblade]

if GW was smart, space marines would actually be this big, they would be elites, and they would be in a codex for all imperial factions. that would be cool.

[Lostsoul1889]

didnt expect that colour choice, was thinking you'd go red being a fellow Blood Angels fan. like the battered battle scarred look. you'll have to pop him near a normal marine in a later vid just so we can see how he looks.

whats next? Sanguinary Guard on the horizon at some point? i'd love to see what you do with them one day Alexandra. mmm shiny

[GirlPainting]

@Lostsoul1889 i´d love to paint some of the new bloodys, but i dont have the money right now for them. i just baught me a new air brush kompressor and next on the list are paints and some tanks ;-)

maybe in the future

[FrogVloger]

are you planning to make some other models into true scale size, like terminators?

other than that, outstanding painting!

[GirlPainting]

@FrogVloger actualy not. i am not that good in modeling and my money scale is not that high.

[Phile700]

ziemlich gut :D ich kann den orden aber nicht identifizieren, ist es ein bestimmter?

[GirlPainting]

@Phile700 selbst ausgedacht. siehe beschreibung

[Videobaschtl33]

unglaublich :D gut geworden dein truescale modell. Welches Matreial hast du benutzt um das Modell zu modifizieren? Also das grüne aus dem video vorher...

[GirlPainting]

@Videobaschtl33 green stuff

[RetributionAngel]

DA nägel FTW :D

nice paint job

[RetributionAngel]

mir gefallen die schrumpf-kopf marines nicht : /

nicht mein fall

[GirlPainting]

@RetributionAngel laut hintergrund haben marines aber einen kleinen kopf, im veergleich zum restlichen körper. Irgendwo hab ich auch mal ein vergleichsdiagram gesehen zwischen mensch, basketball spieler und space marine. stell dir den hulk in ner rüstung vor und du hast den perfecten marine.

[RetributionAngel]

@GirlPainting denn kleinen kop brauchen sie auch... so oft sie sterben

würden ja sonst nicht mehr Imperator loyal bleiben ;D

[RetributionAngel]

machst du lack über die decals?

[GirlPainting]

@RetributionAngel jap

[blitzr0809]

extremely talented

[daveintheclouds]

awesome painting and beautiful nails !!

[ThunderfireMac]

How long did it take for you to paint it?

[GirlPainting]

@ThunderfireMac 51 minutes and 37 seconds, without drying time

[Number1GamerAsh]

tis goodd but i think my nurgle one is more evil !!! o yee im chaos right okay that makes sense now :P

[GirlPainting]

@Number1GamerAsh "you are the good Ash, and i am the bad Ash...Little Goody Two Shoes , Little Goody Two Shoes ! *BAMM!* I ain´t that good ;-)

[Number1GamerAsh]

@GirlPainting lol seriously i laughed sooo hard at this im still laughing hahahhahahaha :')

[Liamwitz]

What do you mean by "truescale"?

[Vehementi]

@Liamwitz It means the model's more accurate in terms of size.

Normally marines are no taller than imperial guard models, when they should be at least another 2' taller.
