Hello all!

I have a beginner guide to edge highlighting your miniatures that I just put out. Any thoughts regarding the content or the style of presentation? I really love any feedback you have.

Absolutely awesome! I wish I would have had this vid two months ago when I started painting minis. Best production, yet.

One thing I do when edge highlighting is that I use Liquitex Fluid Retarder instead of water to dilute my paints. I found that the paint doesn't dry as much on the tip of the brush as quickly (obviously) and also the paint flows more smoothly for me.

I absolutely agree that a nice tip on a larger brush works far better than using a smaller brush for the task.

As usual, well done!!

Personally being new to 40k and ironically working on this technique lately, this video helps a lot and I will definitely be trying your tips out.

Excellent, thanks for the feedback, guys! The slowed is a good idea seeing as how you use so little paint in the tip of your brush meaning that it dries faster.
