    Your tutorial really helped me improve my work. I just completed a mortar platoon and it is my best work to date.

    Excellent work, thank you. Out of interest, how would you create a Flame of War desert base? Thanks again.

    Love your videos brother... made me a way better painter.. might I suggest air brushing base first then masking off edges of base before adding texture paint, then removing before dry for a crisp look. Cant beat the results

    Use a static grass applicator (easist way is a small plastic bottle with a screw cap with holes drilled in). Grass or flock applied by hand, looks like someone sat on your model.

      In this situation it looks fine though, as they'd be trampling all over it, moving back and forth to the gun!

    I do not know why but I always prefer to pin my minis, paint them, then making the base and then while to texture paste is still soft I press them in to make indentations. Then once it is dry I glue them on. It looks great as it seems more natural.

    Should you seal the grass with something to prevent them falling off over time?

    I never glue the guns to the bases. It is better for painting and transporting

    Unrelated to the video but I was wondering if you had any input on the best brand to buy orange paint from. Looking for better coverage than troll slayer orange from GW, it takes 6-8 coats to get a nice coat without brush strokes.

      What is your basecoat? if it is black, you should undercoat the areas you want orange with a white first for a vibrant orange, or a brown for something more muted. From a white vasecoat i really like acrylic inks like the fw range from daler rowney. The are somewhat transparent but brush on really smooth and mix quite well with other acrylic paint ranges

      @@jacobsmith8286 flow aid as an additive might help you ( found in art supply stores) failing that p3 has a nice range of gaming paints i rather like. That being said, acrylic inks are worth a look. You wont have the same range of colors and will have to mix your own to get specific shades but in terms of smoothness of application, they really upped my game when i discovered them

    one suggestion... why do many painters use expensive Vallejo paints for bases and dry brushing bases? cheap craft paints from hobby lobby or Michaels are fine for that
