BEFORE YOU COMMENT… please remember this is me trying to do something half decent with my painting experience, I’m not trying to put you off or make you feel bad as a beginner. I want more people in the hobby, not less :) - please also understand that I am sarcastic. I don’t REALLY think it’s the worst marine in the world.
I decided I’d see how well a non-beginner could paint the marines using ONLY what you get in the starter box.
The Warhammer: Space Marines: Infernus Marines + Paint Set.
Was 4 paints a wash and a texture paint enough to make a go of it? What else did I need? What will you need if you’re starting out and this is all you managed to pick up? All these questions and more, answered in 20 mins. Strap in.
