Glad you like it RM & Bw,
Honestly I have been using this system for years & once you get the hang of it you can paint up armies really fast. I paint minis in batches, say of 10 or 12 and I do the same job on each of them with the colour at hand, i.e I paint the skin on all, then the pants on all etc.
You can easily paint twenty 15mm minis a day using this system.

What would really help me paint is to have 20:20 vision of thirty plus years ago!!!!!!!

Nice tutorial though thanks for sharing

You're welcome,
Can't help you there Iain1914…. What I can suggest is go to an optician & get a pair of glasses, that's what I did & this brought back the love for painting,especially 15mm ( I didn't know what I was missing )…. btw I'll be 51 next month so I feel your pain :):):)

Great tutorial… it motivates me to write one up as well.

I spent the weekend at the local convention (Gamex) convincing people that 15mm is actually EASIER to paint than 28mm… and as your tutorial shows, you can get great results!

Glad to have been of help then, MrH, I would be pleased as punch if you would use it to show the benefits of 15mm over 28mm. Unfortunately I haven't been able to do that either.

If you need more tutorials etc just send a mail at zrunelord@gmail.com and I'll be more than happy to help.
