Category: Painting Guides
Hello, fellow enthusiasts! This collection of painting guides is intended to help you achieve the best results with your miniatures, or at the very least, provide some enjoyment. I have used Humbrol paints for over three decades, but after encountering several issues, I’ve decided to transition to Vallejo Acrylic Paints for all upcoming guides. You can always adjust the recommendations to fit your chosen paint brand by using a conversion chart.
