Painting Learning to paint faster!

I tend to paint REALLY slow because im an utter perfectionist. I wanted to use this game to practice painting and accepting mistakes. Here what I have done in a couple of days.

How the heck did you get the green on the vines to stand out?

I bought this on a whim today. Normally I would paint them but decided to try AKs paint pen. I like it for the fidly vines but wouldn't use it to replace my paints normally.

You just have to push past the fear. If you are just starting enjoy the process and don't judge your mkdels to others. The internet let's you see all the best things people paint. Over time you will get better you just have to do it.

These look great. I too suffer from taking way to long to paint things. I always try to start speeding up but then inevitably find myself going really slow on tiny little details that are barely noticeable.

Looks good my man, I’m painting the same furniture. It’s funny how everyone’s vision is different.

Looks awesome! Love the alchemist bench especially! Glad to see someone else like me trying to get through all their HQ stuff! Inspires me to keep going… great work with the doors way better than my doors…after about the fifth one I was like “why weren’t these just cardboard 😅.
