    I started wargaming 30 or so years ago, and seeing how much better miniature painting has become is insane.<br>Thanks to everyone who has truly made this a form of art.

    It&apos;s basically portraiture and fundamental principles of classic painting and drawing applied to minis

    Best video you guys released on this channel thus far. I appreciate the recap at the end and practical theory that&apos;s not difficult to follow

    As a 3d artist and painter, its so cool seeing the evolution this hobby has gone through the past couple decades.<br>Everyone that does this and is levelling up, learning lighting, colour theory, values, etc. You&apos;re not just a hobby painter I consider you all artists, props to you all.

    I think these higher level tutorials are amazing and really useful to anyone painting to a display or competition level. Keep it up!

    So glad to see that fine arts and miniatures Painting are finally merging together, I&apos;m pretty sure grandpa&apos;s painting Napoleonic busts learned more from it from reels about making blood angels armors. Now the best of the two worlds is meeting and the results are increasingly better in a very little time window

    Well, this is maybe the most interesting video, or let&apos;s say, the video with the most value in terms of learning, you ever released. Cast shadow is something really tricky. This king of thing you tell yourself : I want to try but... where do I start ! Here, you just shown everybody : guys, start here ! And now, we just have to practice. Thank you for this, I just finished to watch the video and the only thing I want is to take a bust et work on cast shadow right now !

    this is the best tutorial I&apos;ve seen from you guys yet, and it&apos;s not even close. This feels like exactly what I wanted from here. Tutorials on advanced techniques, taught with a high quality paint job, and to treat me as though I&apos;m already this skilled, I just don&apos;t know the technique yet. Don&apos;t fuss about with the basic or intermediate parts of this like paint consistency or what direction to push the paint. There&apos;s plenty of other channels that people can go to for that. I need to understand the the color theory, why it&apos;s that way, and see the process of blocking and blending used to get to the result.

    If 3D printing - you almost want to print two models, and have one set up under your preferred lighting while you paint the other one in front of it.
