Hello everyone !!

Update your paint app ^^

The Citadel Paint App is getting some handy new functionality alongside even more models and guides for you to reference. Firstly, we’ve added some miniatures from the latest codexes that are perfect if you’ve just started an Astra Militarum or Craftworlds army or are looking for some new colour schemes. Secondly, adding paints to your inventory just got easier thanks to the barcode scanner, while the camera colour picker can now work with your existing photo library. If you’ve taken a picture previously, or find one online, you’ll now be able to find an easy way to paint whichever colours inspire you.

More and more Handy !

ps : WD app got updated too and work on Smart Phone with a zoom fonction integrated !

Hello everyone !!

Read this :

Do you want to take your painting to the next level? Have you always wanted to learn from the best? Well now you can with the ‘Eavy Metal Masterclass Weekend! Your ticket will cover a full two day course where you will learn a selection of the techniques that the ‘Eavy Metal team uses to produce incredibly painted models for Games Workshop.

Not only that your ticket provides everything you will need to take part – brushes, paints, models – so all you need to do is turn up! In addition you will get to take all the consumables with you – paints, brushes and models.

Day two will then give you the time to fully practice and refine the techniques you learned the previous day – with an ‘Eavy Metal team member on hand to offer advice, feedback and help you if anything starts to go awry!

In addition, the most valuable part of day two will be where we set aside an entire hour for you in a separate room where you will get one-to-one time with an ‘Eavy Metal team member from the previous day.

The date is 09-10 dec (2 more date planned)

The most important thing to bear in mind is that tickets will go on sale Monday 16th of October at 8:00AM from our usual website (www.eventbrite) and are EXTREMELY limited in number, so get in there quickly!

www.eventbrite is the website they use for managing booking.

So hyped for this !!

https://itunes.apple.com/app/citadel-paint-the-app/id1238189867

Quick review of what this is about !

General stuff

Homepage

The homepage is 5 links :
-Getting started,
-Paint by color,
-Paint by model,
-Painting bases,
-Paint inventory/wishlist.

Getting started

Getting started page is very busy.

First there is a video on the GW paint system.

Then there is 9 Duncan videos explaining the different painting techniques. (some categories have no vid)

Ex: One video about shading (i think it the same one as the youtube page)



At the bottom when you click on the Brush you get a small pop up explaining how the brush is made and what is it for.
I learned there that all the GW layer brush are made in "poil de martre" (sable) is that true ? I knew it for the Artificier but not for the standard one.

Paint by color

Layering version



Drybrushing version



You can also access technique video from there.

Paint by Model

When you choose one.



You get a close up with links accessing the colors section.

Bases

Same as the colors but for the bases.



With quick access to the corresponding technique as well.

Paint Collection

This is the Homepage of this section.



Imagine ! you are planning to paint blood angels like every sane person ^^
From this page you can wishlist everything by clicking top right corner or select what do you have or want from each color line.
Notice that the paint icons are present on every color pages to add them easily.

ps: If i selected the Dry brush version the paints offered would be different.

Then in the Owned section :



And in the wish list section:

Color Picker

Exemple :



In this case i clicked on the arm of the Rat Ogre and a dark brown flesh tone was proposed. if you click on the bottom bar you get sent to another page with 3 or 4 painting options for the corresponding color.

Here another exemple when i captured my keyboard (black) and went to " Trouver les correspondances"



Quite awesome ?

ps: Color offered where a bit darker than the actual model, result may differ with different smartphone/light (Maybe it work even better on the Iphone X ^^) I was using my Ipad and the camera is a bit darker.

Time to wrap up, this review !

What is missing
-Multi language video.
-Stock level for paints. ie : Being able to add détails like Having 2 Nuln oil, or a nearly depleted pot of Mephiston red.
-Having other painted exemple than a space marines backpack, especially on the flesh colors it doesn't make sense right now :D
-Option for changing language (maybe it's in but i didn't found it)

Conclusion

For a Version 1.0 the App is already awesome, it's free and there a huge amount of painting information !!

Well Played Games Worskhop ! Future is Bright !

hello everyone !!

This is the best video you will see today :D
A painting tutorial by Kujo about blue steel, it's quite close to the Ben Komets Dark sea blue metal, but without the green.
Anyway even if you don't plan to use these colors the method and the explanations are definitively worth your time. !!

10/10 !
