    The thing you kind of touch on without specifically mentioning it while painting the hair on the Marine is the concept of the Golden Angle. I'm sure you and most others here know the idea but for those that don't, it's simply the concept of "which angle this miniature looks best from."
    Painting the highlights based on how light would reflect in it while viewed from this angle is usually gonna give you the best result.

    Awesome video. Caucasian and Asian hair behaves in this way because its round and channels light almost like a fiber optic. You should illustrate the curls of african decency hair, because its much flater it reflects light quiet differently and in a cool way, as it amost collects light exclusively at the tips and remains inky throughout especially on shorter hair stlyes, small 40k style minis often have hair thats scuplted in a way that could represent any racial hair type and it would be fun to show an example of that.
