Edit: there's now a painting subforum! Check out the new thread:

Hey everyone! Since there's no proper painting and modification subforum, I figured I'd just create one thread to put all my repaints and stuff in.

I'm a total beginner, so any comments/advice are more than welcome!

Here's my first mini, Darth Vader! (This is the first non-starship mini that I've ever painted)

More pictures and comments in the little spoiler tab below.

Sorry that this picture is so grainy

Here you can see that I sprayed the whole thing in matte varnish and then used a brush-on gloss varnish for all except the cape.

Put something white (like a piece of paper) under and behind your minis when you take close-up pictures, as a backdrop. It makes pictures come out a lot better.
