I couldn't think of a better title, I'm sorry. Look at the name of my company - I'm not good at naming things!
This week we look at a 'bolt on' tutorial. This can be used for any large project. It looks at the method I apply to create a workflow for any large project. No matter how large your grey horde is, or how overflowing your closet of opportunity is, this video will help.

This week we are starting with a conceptual video. I hope it does well as it's the sort of video that's hard to frame - it's an examination of what makes a good character for your army with references to other videos in the library.
We'll also have a theory segment on the lizardmen team recently painted on commission.
As well as all the usual PDF delights, live streams, and extras that we can pack in!

When preparing materials for the patreon I often ask - what gives the best value for money?
Masterclass tutorials for students who want to push their boundaries?
Simpler tutorials to use as guides for projects?
Tricks on how to paint lots of miniatures to a very high quality?
August has all of that!

This video refines the Sons of Hours recipe (YES NO LONGER WILL YOU NEED TO MIX A LOAD OF PAINTS!).
It also examines a way to paint cracked leather in under 2 mins (I timed it).
And we have flesh 2 ways: flayed and wounded.

Textured cloaks. It's a well-worn, well-loved topic explained by a maestro. It's fascinating to see another artist handle the same subject matter in a different way.

When asked what character I should do first for the series this guy was the clear favourite. The swagger, the style, that hair cut!
In this video we look at how we evolve the art of compromise techniques into a polished character.
This video covers:
Grim Dark Skin.
Black metallics
NMM
Suede jacket
Atmospheric colour selection and implementation.
It's a cracker. Enjoy!

There have been a LOT of video tutorials recently. Gritty, in-depth masterclasses that encompass the full operatic sweep of miniature painting - but I don't want to watch opera all the time. Sometimes I just want a can of pringles and Fast and the Furious XI.
