The secret to a beautifully painted mini is smooth, flawless transitions. Learn the two most common painting techniques used to achieve this goal in this demonstration class. Laszlo will explain "wet blending" (also called "wet-on-wet" or "real-time" blending) and "layering" (also called "wet-on-dry" blending) and provide demonstrations of both. He'll also talk about hybrid techniques and demonstrate how to get that elusive "consistency of milk."
