Watch “How I Painted Ant-Man & Wasp | Metallic Red + Gold Finish #marvelunited #antman #wasp #lotusthalia,” a board game video on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Lotus Thalia on YouTube:
In this video, I paint Ant-Man and Wasp from Marvel United, using two different metallic approaches to give each miniature its own identity.
Wasp is painted with warm gold armor, deep black sections, and small red accents. I use Greedy Gold to create a bright reflective finish, then add controlled highlights so the armor keeps its depth instead of looking flat.
For Ant-Man, I move to a cooler metallic palette. Tainted Steel, wash shading, red armor panels, and black details help create a more technological look while keeping the miniature clear and readable on the tabletop.
This video focuses on:
Warm and cool metallic contrast
Black armor highlights
Washes for extra depth
Red accent placement
Making small board game miniatures stand out on camera and on the table
The paint list appears near the beginning of the video.
Two heroes, two metallic palettes, one colorful Marvel United painting session.

I paint Warhammer 40K, Age of Sigmar and board game miniatures, create custom bases with my Bambu Lab printer, and share the process from priming to the final showcase. Projects include Frosthaven, Bloodborne, Cthulhu-themed games and many more.
Techniques include zenithal priming, contrast paints, washes, dry brushing, terrain building, dioramas, and snow and ice effects.

All miniatures are painted and filmed by me. Mildy the cat occasionally joins. 😺
