    Non metallic metal (NMM) is a complex technique that can become simple if you know how to approach it. I will teach you about the basics and the more in depth.

    I want to start these articles off with what I was hoping to get out of the event, how it went and what I think I can take away from it and use going forward. Wet blending is the fastest way to get paint on your model. Join industry expert Aaron Lovejoy as he teaches you the techniques he uses everyday to paint both armies and display pieces.

    I’ve been sticking with the Iyandan for this week and I’ve made some good progress on the WraithBlades and the Psychers, but I have also taken the time to get some wo l rk in progress pictures along the way.
