That was really incredible. I am gearing up to get back into painting my 1/72 Napoleonics, and that was a great guide. Many thanks.

I really liked your stilleto technique for these miniatures. Now I'm already subscribed to your channel to watch your other videos.

Thanks for the support Luis! I have my own techniques ;)

How can you paint so well with poor brushes. Great work .LOL

[@ngbuilds7590]

I have a steady hand, so that works good.

@@ngbuilds7590 I just use micro brushes, they allow me to jitter. I do like your work . I paint mostly 10 mm.
