Well, I continue to practice my painting skills, and as you will be able to tell I need a lot more practice! However, this is why we practice on hero quest models and not our army models. In time my painting skills will improve, and when I get some better brushes that should help as well. Right now I am just using the standard practice brush, but I can already tell where different sized brushes would come in handy.It's amazing how time consuming such a small crappy paint job can take! I am can't wait till I am actually good enough to start painting my own armies. Of course I need for my starter kit and starter paint it to arrive, but that should be on wednesday.
On a side note, I am sure most people have seen the mega paint set that Games Workshop puts out. While this set has a truly amazing assortment of paints, and the price that you are paying per paint is an excellent deal, I would not recommend purchasing it. As Joey and I have discussed, quite a few of the paints you won't ever even use. I believe Joey has roughly 23 different paints right now, a few doubles, but he only needs a couple more before he has all the necessary paints to for his entire armies, which includes Space Marines, Necros AND Tyranids. The mega paint set comes with 73 different paints, why pay for paints you wont even use, even if you are paying less for bulk?
