So a question I see come up here quite a bit is how to successfully take paint off of a painted model in order to redo it. For me, this was quite an issue, as there are a variety of methods you can find online, and many of them a) use illegal substances, and/or b) [...]
This is a guide on using “Dip” or “Dipping” as a technique to quickly paint miniatures. “Dipping” is a technique that is very easy, saves a bunch of time, and looks really great on a variety of figures. The technique has been out there for a long time, most famously here.
This thread is mainly a [...]
Hello again everyone. I have been playing around with the new Citadel Washes and I must say that I love them! I recently tried painting true metallics with the washes and was quite pleased with the results. The washes are very smooth and low in pigment, so they are perfect for the job!
Now, this isn’t necessarily the best or the fast way. But it’s fairly quick and yields nice results. This was rushed a little so feel free to take more time if you want. My setup is pretty simple. A tile (or in this case, plate), some water, some tissue and some paints.
I’ve gotten numerous requests for a tutorial on how to paint flesh so I thought I would take the time tonight to oblige those who have seen my Imperial Guardsmen and have inquired. Hopefully even those that don’t play IG can take something away from this. Faces can be scary to the beginning painter and [...]

Hello again there dear denizens of LO…
After I ‘persuaded’ a friend to paint his marines white, I figured it was only fair for me to try it out myself.
It wasn’t quite as simple as I had at first suspected, so I decided that I would help the poor guy out with this tutorial.
How do you paint face?” is another most asked question in my list. Therefore I put together a short tutorial on how I paint face. For this tutorial I’m using Sir William Peacemaker from Reaper: Dark Heaven line.
In This tutorial I will try to show how I blend the robe of a warcrow miniature in a natural green colour, and also how I make a mudd-effect on the clothes. This is the same technique that has been used on Sir Broderick in the my gallery. I excuse for the difference in the [...]
The first big obstacle was how to paint his skin (Or her skin. Or it’s. Didn’t I once hear about some frogs being asexual? I think that was Jurassic Park…) Anyway, I didn’t want to copy the GW paintjob, which I loved, and all examples of doing it very colorfully hadn’t turned out very well [...]
