Glazing: A Versatile Technique for Miniature Painting
Summary:
Hands-on. Topics: smooth blends, shade NMM, shift colour, add depth, add weathering and dirt, underpainting, and more. Includes free Dark Sword mini and colour handout.

Glazing is a simple yet versatile technique you can use in painting miniature figures. Attendees will practice the technique hands-on under the guidance of award-winning painter Rhonda ‘Wren’ Bender. She will outline and demonstrate additional uses for glazing including: improving blending transitions, shifting a colour, adding depth to skin, more realistic tattoos and fur patterns, shading non-metallic metal, weathering and dirt, and grisaille or underpainting. Each attendee receives a free high-quality figure from Dark Sword Miniatures, and a colour handout. Paints and other supplies for hands-on practice during class are provided, but you are encouraged to bring a good brush.
