Hey there, I've been playing warhammer fantasy and 40k since about 2005 but took a 2 year break and have started up again a few months ago. So when I came back, I dug my models out from the depths of the attic and dusted them off. Saw how bad the paint job was on most of my guys, so i took up the paintbrush and started on my newly bought Island of blood box set. So far its an massive improvement on my rank a file models compared to my old figures. I believe that patience is the key so far.

Thanks

Yes, in my experience patience is the key. Patience and persistence.

Patience is definitely the key. I recently went through the same transition. I found all my old Tau and went "eww.." but with the patience of a much older/mature person. I now paint my Daemons fairly well.
