    Maestro, the quality of your painting is always amazing, but I'd like to compliment you on the way you make your videos - the meticulous presentation and step-by-step methods not only showing what and how you do, but also *why* are fantastic. Coupled with clear narration and excellent music, these must be the best painting videos on this platform.
    Further, whilst I can never hope to achieve results like yours, (I know my Trooper Dunkin and Sergeant Blob limits!) they have helped me to understand and appreciate a lot of techniques.
    Thank you for all the effort and Happy New Year sir! Bravo!

As excited as I was to finally start with Star Wars: Legion, I made a terrible mistake: I've built the whole miniature with the cloak before painting it. Do you have any tips, how to properly paint it with the cloak attached yet?
