  • They look fantastic!

    I got my family into playing D&D a few years ago. My wife, who is also an artist, has gotten swept up in painting miniatures. She likes the videos by Dr Faust on Youtube. Dr Faust goes from basic methods all the way up to layering and more advanced methods.

    • My wife's dex bonus is much higher than mine. I'd love to get her painting my minis, but the way she goes about her hobbies I'm sure we'd have GW's entire catalogue delivered to our front door the following week. 😆

    • @Canopyflyer Awesome! I'll have to check it out. I've been painting them with the cheap sets of acrylic paint from Michaels.

      I've seen a few tutorials and they spend as much one like 1 paint color as I did on a whole set.

      • Vallejo makes really good paints. Game Color is another good company.

        They can be expensive, but they last a very long time and look great. I purchased a 75 color set of Vallejo, when my wife went full in on painting, 4 years ago. We still use it today. It was expensive, but I've not had to invest that much since. Just replacing the more heavily used paints once in a while.

  • These look nice. I especially love the boar looking thing with the blue tattoo accents. Very nicely done.

    If this is what you do with cheap acrylics and little experience you got some epic minis ahead oh you. Miniature paint has higher pigment density which will make painting minis a ton easier.

    Also keeping up with a campaign in prints and painting can be difficult. Been there.
