Hey guys!
Welcome to my thread giving you all easy access to videos and images.
I produce videos of tutorials, unboxings, product reviews and even coverage of events.
My tutorials are aimed at all levels, I by no means consider myself to be an amazing painter, but love to pass on what I do know.
I have learnt so much from other people that i would now like to share it.
Also in my videos you'll find out about different products out there that you can use to create amazing miniatures.
Please comment, like and ask any questions.

Hey Guys,
Heres a real quick video of how to apply transfers really quickly, easily and best of all smoothly.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ynXT7FcUxA
This method will give you perfectly smooth, wrinkle free transfers. It almost looks like they have been painted on.
found this method after so much searching for a solution to apply the decals to space marine shoulders and getting a bad finish or tearing the decal.
I use 2 products for this method:
Micro Set & Micro Sol which are both made by MicroScale Industries and are available in hobby stores or online for around £3-£4 a bottle.
Let me know if this was helpful!

Just finished this chap, what a brilliant model.
Really enjoyed painting him, only thing i didn't like was the face, looks a little odd.
I may replace it with a different head.
Let me know what you think.

Hey Guys
Ive put together a video showing how I paint rust effects without the use of weathering powders etc.
In the video i use only citadel paints to create a great looking and easy rust finish.
It can add a whole new layer to you battle damaged minis and make you machines, tanks and terrain look 40,000 years old!
Heres the video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2f-felFoLo
It takes around 5 minutes and offers another dimension to your minis.
The process uses these paints:
Leadbelcher - base
Nuln Oil Wash - even wash
Typhus Corrosion - apply where rust required
Mournefang Brown - dry brush over typhus covering around 80%
Ryza Rust - dry brush over mournefang, covering 60%
Seraphim Sepia - light wash
Agrax earthshade - light wash
Let me know what you think!
Any questions welcome as always.
