Seven years ago, I would meet with my friends and we would all paint minis together. Then, I went to grad school, didn't have time, and started investing in plastic minis.
Now I have time to paint again, problem is, I no longer know what the "best practices" are. I was hoping that you guys could shed some light on this including...
What should I use as my base? White or black? Water or oil-base?
For painting, water or oil base.
Clear coat when finished. Yes or no.
What other tips and advice do you have?
