January 02, 2023
Want to look like a pro painter, but don't know where to start?
Here at Digital Taxidermy we pride our selves on our model crafting abilities but our painting skills may not be up to the gold standrd of many tabletop miniature painters out there, but that hasn't got in our way!
We have explored a whole range of painting techniques that can allow new model painters to craft pieces of terrian that will be the envy of your gaming club. We are passionate about tabletop gaming and are dedicated to helping others learn the art of miniature painting. Our playlist is filled with a variety of tutorials that cover everything from basic techniques to more advanced skills.
Our Youtube channel has a range of videos that will show you that you do not need to have pro-painter skills to produce something that looks the part and will fit in with any tabletop game. Whether you are a beginner looking to get started with miniature painting or an experienced painter looking to improve your skills, our tutorials have something for everyone.
Our channel shows painting tutorials for some of our models and model ranges and covers painting with brushes, sponges, fingers, spray cans and air brushes. These techniques plus a liberal attitude to their application can produce outstanding results in your finished tabletop model. We believe that with the right guidance and practice, anyone can learn to paint miniatures to a high standard.
So if you are new to painting or just want to see if there are other methods out there, this channel is the one for you. If you are ready to take your tabletop gaming experience to the next level and learn how to paint beautiful miniatures, be sure to check out our playlist.
