This guide is designed for beginner to intermediate level painters. The aim is to achieve a good quality paint job in a way that can be replicated relatively quickly across an army. Some of the later steps are optional, so the method can be âscaledâ from rank and file to more special models such as commanders and characters.
A certain level of experience and understanding is assumed of basic painting techniques such as basecoating, layering, using shading washes and edge highlighting, but more âadvancedâ techniques such as freehand or NMM are avoided to ensure maximum accessibility.

I’ve been a fan of The Mighty Brush’s painting style ever since I first saw their article on shading/pre shading many years ago, and have been an avid follower ever since. So when this series of painting guides was released I knew it was something worth purchasing.
I’ve not been disappointed as the quality of the guide is very professional and clearly laid out. The inclusion of an introduction section with a list of paints and techniques used is a great touch, and each of the painting stages are very well explained. In addition to which, each stage has several clear images which are taken from the same angle to help show the effect of the painting of that particular stage. This is very useful as it allows you to see the changes to the model as you follow the guide. A very nice touch.
Overall I can highly recommend this painting guide and will be keeping an eye out for future releases.
Speaking of releases, the author frequently updates these guides and if you create an account when buying one, you automatically get an email with a link to download the latest version of the guide in question.
Well done The Mighty Brush!

This guide is a great introduction to selective highlighting and uses of inks with an airbrush.
The techniques described in the guide introduced me to new styles with ease and helped me to paint visually more interesting minis.
Furthermore I could not agree more with my previous reviewers opinion.
It is a great guide, written by a very nice and helpful person who will answer any questions you might have quickly via Facebook. That is in my opinion perfect customer support.
I would totally recommend TheMightyBrushâs guides and am looking forward to future guides!
