Drilling barrels incoming... yes, that one isn't actually drilled 😅 What do we need to cover?
Thank you for your fantastic input on Greenstuff... It's a larger subject that we imagined, but we are working on it!
Fake barrel painted with a toothpick and a size 5 🥰. Maybe it's time to try out the biiig brushes?

How many of you have used Greenstuff?
Would some basic quick tips on subjects like -
- Chain
- Chain mail
- Scale mail
be useful?
Even if you don't get it perfect it can be very useful for hiding gaps in kitbashes or conversions.

- Wash/Shade rules
- Tutorial for Bronze and Iron (drybrush only)

We are teaching 3 classes and one seminar at NOVA Open this year, we get asked a lot about Byron teaching in person - here's an opportunity!
tabletop.events/conventions/nova-open-2025/schedul…
192 is already sold out, 230 has 4 tickets left.
232 may just be the best class you ever attend, and is for some reason listed as for display painters.
It is 100% suitable for army painters, and will teach you the most cheaty speed drybrushing skills for space marines you'll ever learn.
Thank you for all your suggestions in the comments of yesterday's video, please keep them coming!
