1. Read about a technique and try it without any previous experience on the most new, important and expensive model I have.
2. During the paintjob, adopt corporal positions that defy the euclidean geometry.
3. Having an enormous and dedicated table with a speciallist cutting mat on it, but do the difficult cuts just on your hands while you are sh*tting.

-Has five brushes, only uses two...and even then the second one is just for large areas
-Paints with the model upside down, especially when freehanding
-Always has something on Netflix while painting
-Uses a towel that I stole from US Army MWR facility downrange 12 years ago
- always handles the models while painting instead of using some form of pinning or basing
- always removes all dried paint from painting pallet before starting a new paint job (what can i say, i like a clean pallet when ever i move onto a new project)
i might be a bit crazy but i feel like my paint doesn't dry as fast when it's cleaned out
- has a desk lamp with magnifying glass but sometimes still doesn't use it and squints instead

I love my wet pallet 🙂
I tend to handle the models with a base or stick, and for the finishing layers I always manage to leave some finger marks in fresh paint

Aouch.
By the way. The other day I was doing the final touch to a model with black wash. The problem was I took black PAINT by mistake. I cried a lot.
