      Thanks. I am very happy with this one.
      I have to be honest, I have no idea how to tackle Scareglow at the moment. As he isn't one of my favourites, I had him quite low down the list, but as you're a member, maybe I'll bump him up a few places, just for you! He'll still be after the classic line-up though. It's got to be Man-at-Arms and Teela next, then Skeletor, Mer-Man, Beast-Man, Trap-Jaw and Evil Lyn. After that it becomes a bit of a free-for-all.

      @AlwaysBoardNeverBoring  Рік тому +3

      Thanks. That's always been the aim with my tutorials. When I started on UA-cam, I didn't intend to do painting videos because I didn't consider my work good enough; but I was looking for a simple guide on something I was painting, and the first video I found that was advertised as "simple" started off doing a zenithal highlight with a spray gun. That was when I realised I should do videos, because with so many fantastic painting channels doing the high-end stuff, maybe some people would like to see a much simpler way to get the minis coloured.

      Strawberry blonde seems like a reasonable description for it. Okay, it's more yellow really, but they sort of drifted between the yellow and orange depending on the cell, so I thought it fit.
