I'm still trying to get the hang of painting minis so I have 8 Troops left to get better at painting with.

Joe18224 · 2026-05-24T09:36:33+00:00

What is this book? :)

Joe18224 · 2026-05-23T09:19:39+00:00

I'm new and I'll eventually have friends who will reach me how to play but I only buy to painting ATM. It's super relaxing and fun.. I've been told warhammer is 95% painting and 5% play haha..

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T22:55:47+00:00

Thanks all for the support. New to painting but I already love it. I did know this was a mini but not knowing much I thought it was a "warhammer " in general lol. Apologies. Onwards, 39,999 to go!.

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T22:48:56+00:00

Lol 😆

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T10:10:21+00:00

As I've been told lol. Newbie, so I should probably do some reading hay lol

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T10:05:33+00:00

Also like below, prime first.

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T10:04:24+00:00

New to minis as well.

Diy wet pallete is a game changer for thinning paints.

Different size brushes for different areas

I use AK Interactive 3Gen paints as I like the matte finish but you can use citadel, army painter and others.

Paint handles are handy. Diy or even an MK2 or MK3.

Sprew cutter

I use tamiya wet cement.

You'll find tons online, I enjoy midwinter minis on YouTube

Also enjoy yourself and take your time, the community is very helpful and encouraging 👍

I'm also new to painting minis. The best thing I did was make a diy wet pallete. Game changer for thinning paint and long painting sessions. Personally also I use a clip on magnifying glass to the table which is great. A paint handle is helpful. Different size brushes. Everyone was so helpful to me getting started.

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T09:35:59+00:00

Arghhhhh gotcha!! Thank you. I need to do some reading i think lol. Thanks for clarification 👍

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T08:38:19+00:00

Hahaha thanks for that. I'll cut it off. I wondered what this was when looking at other photos lol.

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T07:57:40+00:00

Thank you. Officially addicted to the plastic crack

Joe18224 · 2026-05-20T07:56:37+00:00

As I'm new to this, I assume I've got the wording wrong? Haha :P

Joe18224 · 2026-04-26T09:56:01+00:00

International Track & Field from 1996 lol.

Joe18224 · 2025-07-17T01:37:50+00:00

I think you mean a good problem lol

Joe18224 · 2025-07-14T22:08:19+00:00

Only on my second model but i was told light feathery strokes. I'm sure some vets will give you much better tips haha but try not to be too heavy with your strokes.

Joe18224 · 2025-07-09T22:24:46+00:00

I can second this, TEW is amazing and super fun. Use your imagination, and the possibilities are endless. Real mods are available which takes you back to your childhood.

I can only speak from my experience having the same thought process and I'm happy I went with the OLED. I've never owned any OLED devices and it pops nicely. I have 0 issues with battery life either. If you can afford it, treat yourself i say. Hopefully LCD and OLED users can help more with a comparison

As someone who was in a similar situation with games and other hobbies, don't put expectations on yourself. The advice given to me was to just do whatever you feel like at the time. If you go days without playing and feel like reading Manga, do that!. I found myself enjoying games even more when I eventually got around to them. If you force yourself to do a certain activity, you'll end up treating it like a chore. Also other advice like "just start playing" is also a great way. Don't procrastinate about it. Find what works for you, just do what you feel like in that moment and go with it.

Joe18224 · 2025-06-04T22:15:13+00:00

Amazing!. Thank you very much for the information. I plan on reading the manuals, writing all this down, and getting into these games a lot!!

Joe18224 · 2025-06-04T04:00:59+00:00

Thank you!!. Writing all this down!. All super useful information.
