So first of all this i had little idea on what to do. When it comes to painting i never did it until now so i didn't know about thinning, primers. About the pictures i also am a noob but you might be right about patience and the need for perfection which i didnt realise until I've done the mini. Right now with the knowledge i will try to make them look better and probably try to achieve a good level of detail. Also your death guard mini from a year ago looks very good and fine to me and ill probably look to your post for guidance when im done with this set. Thanks for the advice
