So I\'ve been posting and learning a lot here in the last little while. I\'m much improved vs. when before I got here and I have been asked quite a bit about my newer painting.
So, to the point.... I would LOVE it if everyone here could think of some of the things you absolutely think are MUST follow rules for painting. I mean rules that without which you could never finish a fig to your standards, things you probably think are so standard and simple but really aren\'t followed all that much by gamer painters. Things I was thinking of...
-Always thin your paint
-Shake any paint cans for at least a minute
-Clean your brush and bring it to a point
If I\'m being truthful here I didn\'t do any of those for about 20 years before coming here. Hearing that sort of advice is one thing, but then actually SEEING the difference in quality tips like that make is another.
That kind of stuff. I wanted to put something together to put up on the wall at the LGS that hosts paint days. Anyone care to add to this, or discuss?
