Is your learner looking to improve their miniature painting skills? Have they already taken some of my miniature painting classes? Maybe your learner already knows a little bit, and you would like them to get a few lessons so you have a hobby buddy at home. This is the class for them. Join me and other learners on painting miniatures for wargaming, tabletop rpgs, or for display.

We will meet twice a week for 1 hour and 30 minutes. This is an ongoing class (subscription) so learners can drop in or out at anytime. 

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ BEFORE ENROLLING: This class is designed for learners who already know the basics of miniature painting. If your learner has never painted miniatures before, I’d suggest they first take the tabletop miniature painting basics course, to have a strong foundation to work from. These classes assume that the learner already has the necessary tools: Things such as acrylic paint, brushes, and miniatures. As long as the learner has the beginning foundations and necessary equipment, they'll be ready to learn and prepped for the challenges in this ongoing class.

These classes are learner directed. Learners can direct the lessons to cater towards their needs for miniature painting. For example, if learners need help with color combinations, we can go over color theory, and color mixing, and ways to apply paint to the miniature.
If learners need help with contrasts, we can go over zenithal highlighting, glazing, shadows and highlights to make the miniature pop.
If learners want to improve their skills but are unsure about what they would like to do, there are rotating lessons to help stimulate their creativity, and help push them to improve their skills.

If learners have no requests, there are backup lessons to help challenge learners.
