Hi! I'm Mike,
I built PaintPicker.co.uk to make it easy to compare paints and model prices for Warhammer across retailers in the UK and the US.
The site is really taking off and partners with friendly local gaming stores worldwide.
Best of all; it's free!

Myth: metallics are hard. They're just paint with pigment that settles. Stir well, thin a little, done.

Myth: finish one model before starting the next. Batch painting a squad is faster AND more consistent.

Myth: washes are cheating. Shading is a technique, not a shortcut. The old masters used glazes, so you're in good company.

Myth: you need expensive paints to paint well. Technique beats brand every time. A cheap paint thinned properly beats a premium paint slapped on.

There's no such thing as a bad paint job in progress. There's only not-finished-yet.

Hot take: base your minis BEFORE you paint them, not after. Give it one go. It makes everything downstream easier.

Wawawooo. Looks like I'd better prep the site for some new paints!
A first look behind the scenes of our new range.

The best brush is the one you actually clean. A cheap brush cared for beats a premium brush left to dry with paint in the ferrule.

Grey plastic isn't a backlog to feel guilty about. It's a shelf full of good evenings waiting to happen. Prime one tonight. 🩶

Hot take: edge highlighting is overrated on rank-and-file troops. Nobody notices it from three feet across a table.

Contrast paints didn't ruin the hobby. They got a whole generation painting who'd have bounced off it otherwise.

Unpopular opinion: you don't need an airbrush. You need to thin your paints and be patient. 90% of how'd-they-do-that is just layering.

Hot take: a fully painted tabletop-standard army beats three half-finished display pieces. Get plastic on the table.
