Painting Guides

I’m Ok then just to set the scene for how these painting guides came about and what you can expect from them. They came about when I started painting my WWX Lawmen and because the colour scheme I used was unlike anything I had done before I kept some notes so that I would be able to repeat it. Then when I painted a few more I expanded the notes into something that was easier for me to follow. My next project was some MERCS and I did the same thing here keeping my notes in a note book so I wouldn’t lose them, and my painting guides were born.

So what can you expect? Well first and foremost I am not some super painter and these notes won’t turn you into some sort of Crystal Brush guru. They are just the steps I take to paint my model. My hope is that they will give others a bit of inspiration to try something new. Or that they may act as a bit of a reference for a particular colour or technique. That and the fact that it will inspire me to keep doing them, which in turn means that I will be able to remember how I painted something if I come to add more models to that collection in the future.

A few of the guides I wrote before I set the site up don’t have work in progress picture, just pictures of the finished models. But my plan is that future guides, will have some work in progress pictures showing the various stages.
