Warhammer Community Releases Step-by-Step Captain Titus Painting Tutorial

Warhammer Community released a concise, accessible painting tutorial focused on Captain Demetrian Titus, an Ultramarines centrepiece model that the page describes as deserving an immaculate paint job. The 12:35 video, presented by Ollie, walks viewers through a complete sequence from basecoat to finishing weathering, giving painters a practical roadmap for producing professional-looking results on a single, display-quality infantry model.

The tutorial covers fundamental stages: an initial basecoat, progressive layering to build depth, and precise edge highlights to sharpen armor panels. Ollie also demonstrates metallic techniques for weapons and fittings, and spends time on small details such as eyes, lenses, and purity seals that often define a model’s overall polish. Weathering steps are included and shown as optional, depending on whether you want a pristine centrepiece or a battle-worn appearance.

Practical value comes from the combination of technique and transparency. The video provides close-up footage so you can see brush strokes and paint handling at tabletop scale, and a materials list details the exact paint choices and brushes used during the demonstration. Because the page hosts the full video and accompanying images rather than a long transcript, you can pause, rewind, and match each stage to your own build as you work on Titus or a similar primed infantry model.

For community members preparing display boards, club show armies, or tournament centrepieces, the tutorial offers targeted techniques to lift a single model from good to standout. You can follow the step-by-step layering and edge highlight process to create readable contrast across photos and in-person displays, and the attention to small details will help models hold up under scrutiny in local painting competitions and narrative showcases.

The guide’s accessibility makes it useful for intermediate painters stepping up to a flagship piece, while more experienced painters can adapt the demonstrated methods and materials to personal workflows. With the video readily available and clearly structured, you can plan time, purchase the exact paints and brushes recommended, and replicate the look on Titus or transfer the approach to other chapter characters and command models.
