So I’m getting ready to dive into the world of finally painting my Star Wars Legion minis. I’m planning on getting an Army Painter speedpaint 2.0 set to start. Should I also buy the wash set? I’m not sure if it would improve my results as a beginner, though I imagine I will want them if I keep up with painting. I’m intending to start by getting this Army Painter’s stuff:
Speedpaint most wanted 2.0 set
Most wanted brush set
Matte white primer
Matte varnish
Project paint Station
Maybe not for stormtroopers, but it should work for death troopers. The trick to painting black minis is to not really paint them black, but various dark shades of grey.
However, you don’t have to be “stuck” on one technique. You can use slap chop for more colorful minis like named characters, and you can use regular techniques for your troopers.
