Hello,
I've been reading 30/40k for the last 8-10 years, just started the tabletop side of things (never done table top before).

Interested in making the best looking miniatures, not interested in competitive play, but do like casual.
Going to be starting with SM, specifically UM, I really do like the space Romans.

Got the 3 easy build interseccors, using them as practice, and have a squad to paint after that.


Been struggling massively with painting. Been watching edge highlighting tutorials. Every video I see, they use a brush which looks like it has a tip almost as sharp as a pencil. Even when I try to use the edge of the brush, I get massively thick lines and a lt of paint on the model. Might post a pic/vid later in the week to as for more detailed help.

Cheers

Keep watch videos, and keep practicing - never give up!

You'll get there eventually, and there are a LOT of helpful people here as well.
