    This is without a doubt the best MiniPainting channel on youtube and I actuallt do mean it. Not only clips like this are full of actually usefull info, but the host has natural charisma, unique style of humor and editing and Tempo of the videos are on point. But mostly your approach to the hobby is something that actually mad me go back to painting. You struck the perfect balance between focusing and improving your painting while also finding a way to not beat yourself over mistakes, shortcommings that had stopped me many times to paint the models I thought i was "not ready" to paint yet.

    For Streaking Grime, I recommend makeup sponges. For a couple of dollars you can get a big bag, then cut them down to workable sizes with scissors.
    I'm using them for my space marines. I think it's also a good idea to not leave the streaking grime on too long. More work to pull off the grime.

    You need to put a lacquer clear coat on to lock in all the base coating you did before putting the streak and grime enamel on. Capillary action will then take the enamel to the recesses of the model and the lacquer clear coat allow the mineral spirits to cleanly wipe away the enamel.

    I think in the future you would be better off not waiting as long before removing enamel layers.

Also use make up sponges

    I started this video exactly at 10:44. The same time as the clock in the initial shot 🤯
