Paints?
So I started priming my miniatures. I used this [Image: 9d21e3d65ca77e4318f2945a9bb340cf.jpg], it coated it pretty well, I coated it twice.

When I was asking a clerk in a games hobby store about paints.

He recommended I do a base layer, followed by a shade layer or/and highlight layer.

Paints are expensive too. Does anyone have paint set recommendations?

I'm almost done the heroes. I'm so proud of them. I'm bringing them to life.e0ae20d3511eb078e0dc4b13e8905cf9.jpg[/IMG][Image: f13b74ef9700cfb46aa38575e3070ef0.jpg]

I agree. Painting the minis adds so much to the enjoyment of the game. I'm waiting for Hero Pack 2 so I can paint more LNoE figures.

Those Army Painter spray can s are great too!

Thanks for sharing +1 Rep

RE: Paints?
I don't have my paints in front of me, so I forget the brand. However, I will say this.... Get some Nuln Oil! It's a shade. Unlike the paints pictured above, it is more liquid/inky. It works very well to go over after using your solid paints. It makes some of the finer details pop out and even adds a bit of a dirty, gritty look to clothing. I love the stuff and swear by it. Don't over-apply on the brush, though. When you apply to the miniatures, you want it to just be a light layer so it seeps into the various details. With miniatures that are really well sculpted, it looks awesome.
