Wow! Thanks!

np. It took me a long time to compile them. I wanted to display only the best ones with the highest quality results.

That is a great list. Thanks for posting it.

This is really a very nice service to other miniature painters. Thank you for putting it together, and thank you to all those folks to created the content and posted it on the web.

I hope these all can live for years to come. So we can all benefit from all this work.

Wow, wow, WOW! Thanks, lots of great tips and I like that there are different methods to achieve the same end (e.g. Ral Partha site for painting flesh). Thanks so much for this. My son wants to start painting and I think there's more than enough info to help him too. Again, thanks.

Thank you everyone for the kind words =) Three of the biggest things that I learned from watching the videos were under The Basics:
1) How to Darken/Lighten Colors properly (not just wht/blk)
2) How to pin a miniature so u get a perfect alignment.
3) Painting Figures pdf, how to paint sheer lace on a mini

If there is something I missed or something that you think I should add, post it here and I will find it and add it to the site.

There are three new categories I have added to the site
Photographing Miniatures link
Restore Dried Out Paint link
Transfer Citadel Paint into Dropper Bottles link

I have 15mm miniatures and airbrushing on my youtube site. Would be very pleased for you to add them to the list of yours. Thanks.

Is there any category that anyone would like to see that I may have missed?
