Tips for Best Results

For dry brushing, load your brush with a small amount of paint and wipe most of it off on a paper towel before applying to your model or surface. This leaves just a thin layer of pigment that catches raised edges and textures — a classic technique for bringing miniatures to life. Rinse brushes thoroughly after each session to extend their lifespan.
