BRUSH SKILLS

Improve your technical skill with a brush. This is a series of classes aimed at helping you to achieve a higher standard of finish on your models. We focus on:

  • Different types of brush stroke and how to utilise them

  • Dilution of paint and how to adapt it to different applications

  • Understanding how light reacts on different surfaces, and representing that using paint

  • Creating smooth transitions and blending, with the use of the brush stroke and glazing

The series includes Brushstrokes & Blending, Faces, and Cloth amongst others. Whilst there is no required order in completing the classes, we always recommend someone attends Brushstrokes & Blending to help them get the most out of the rest of the series and more advanced classes.

INTRO TO AIRBRUSHING

Build confidence and a full skillset with your airbrush.

This popular evening class covers:

  • Correctly setting up an airbrush and compressor

  • Airbrush maintenance (including what products are worthwhile)

  • Dilution of paint and how to adapt it to different applications

  • Pre shading and highlighting (grey scaling)

  • Application of colour

ARMY PAINTING

Our longest running series of classes that equip you with all the techniques and know-how to produce an army that will delight you and your opponents ( as you crush them beneath your iron treads/hooves)

Learn how to efficiently work on both troops, vehicles, monsters, and characters, and get that pipe dream on the table.

We cover:

  • Using an airbrush where appropriate, to enable preshading, colour application and weathering

  • Correct decal application on a variety of shapes

  • Using different weathering products from chipping medium, masking tapes, enamels, oils, and pigments

  • Detailing - lenses, armour trim, weapon effects

  • Suitable for complete beginners and experienced generals.

 NMM

Unravel the mystery that is non metallic metal technique. This class has been broken down to  make this difficult technique easy to understand. It covers:

  • How to render metallic surfaces

  • How to create tones simulating metallic colours

  • Blending and Glazing

Masterclasses

Masterclasses are a chance for people to spend some time with particularly celebrated artists within our hobby, learning how they approach painting different subjects and some of their preferred techniques for painting.

One of our aims is to provide access to certain artists that we feel can deliver something unique. Our role is to ensure the class is structured in such a way that you don’t just turn up and watch someone paint!

Some of the artists we’ve worked with include multiple award winners Andy Wardle, Marc Masclans, and Richard Gray. We also host specialist classes such as sculpting with Barrie Watkins.
