For a long long time I've painted my Warhammer minis using the Games Workshop approved 'Citadel Painting System' of Basecoat, wash and then layer and highlight, and for a long time this was the ONLY way I painted!
I painted some great miniatures using this technique but when I compared my work to that of other painters I admired something felt wrong...
I realised that in order to improve my painting once and for all I needed to move away from the Citadel Painting System but after painting that way for 8 years... you may also be wondering 'How do we do that?'
Well this video is going to run through some easy, small AND QUICK ways that you can switch up the way you paint in order to make your minis look cooler and push yourself one step closer to your painting goals!
I HOPE YOU ENJOY!!
