*BUSTED* - This guy is actually ant man, he shrinks down to the same size as the minis and THAT'S how he gets that detail. or they aren't mini's - he's recreated them really big.
something like that.

Ye gods those are good!

First of all thank you for posting all the pictures of your wonderfull painted HeroQuest figures.
They are the best i ever seen !! i've been thinking of starting to paint again.

and what better way to learn from the best.

But i want to do it right and am searching for information on how to best paint them.
I do know some of the basic techniques but i want to learn more and find tips to be a better painter.
So i got some questions for you. (hope you don't mind)

- Do you always use a white primer? and never use black as a primer?
- What kind of paints colors did you use to paint the orc/fimir/kobalt skin?

If i started painting would this be good steps?

- clean the model
- prime the model
- basecoat
- shade with inks
- dry brush
- highlight/detail
- base the model
- Seal the model.

are there any other steps i did forget. or any other techniques i could use.
i alway use thinner to get a thinner paint

any tips are welcome !!
