Mini painting is fun until you get old and your eyes shrink.

Really? That's your first attempt? Because I'm looking at that knight, and he's better than the rank-and-file I've seen in WarHammer armies of people who've been doing it for years. Slap a dark brown wash on that dude and show him off at the local game store.

Yeah I actually painted it there after our D&D game. They were surprised I've never painted before. That was the first one I did. The elf was a lot harder being metal.

Thin your paints! Also drybrushing highlights and edges is your friend.
Otherwise? Really really really good for a new painter!

Dry brushing for cloaks is great. *nods with Tash*

Give them shadows on the clothing wrinkles and folds hair with the same colors somewhat obscured and your miniatures will own!
