Artis Opus | How to Paint 'Mars' bases: Texture Paints Explained! @ArtisOpus | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
In this tutorial we're learning how to do our favourite basing scheme! We've used this on all our warhammer 40k/Horus Heresy Space Marines, and it's a powerful scheme, that always does a great job of setting your miniatures in a world, and giving them a great narrative.

If you've ever struggled to control texture-paint (Agrellan Earth, Martian Ironearth) we've got some amazing tips for getting predictable effective results, and also stopping the paint from flaking off, which is a real issue with delicate dry products.
