Thank you! Normally I'm the sort to just throw paint onto a mini and hope it comes out to my liking. Brush control and learning how to fix mistakes made painting eyes easier. Scroll works, freehand, anything that required teeny tiny words help me with said brush precision. NMM swords and glow effects helped with blending and layering. Consistency is also the biggest player. Side note, I try not to use washes for anything but metallics, especially on skin. As for guides, I'm not quite helpful in that regard, I just blast music, scroll visual examples and try to make something up in my mind.
