Wow... thanks for this!

The only problem I can see is that it may be tricky for beginners to follow, as it is also important to see what is happening to his brush each time the brush leaves the camera view. Whether that be, -brush getting washed, then used to mop up / readjust what was already loaded, -brush getting squeezed out more / bristles rolled to get back a point, etc.

As weisern says, those who find painting mini's does not come to them naturally..or at all (ie; me) are left wondering what happens, after he applies a bit of paint the brush leaves, then comes back, i am not sure if he is using a bit of water on the brush to help this/blend in the paint on the models arm from darker area to lighter area....or has actually just put a lighter colour on the brush and is literally blending two wet colours on the model . Still, watching paint dry ain't all that bad

You have a good point there Weisern.
They use 2 brushes, 1 for applying the paint and a second for smoothing the blends.
Mike keeps the second brush in his mouth (not the bristles), then swaps them over as he needs to so that he's not constantly looking down to find the 2nd brush.
I'm sure this is the way he has taught his wife to paint as well.

Gonzo is correct.

Dwayne, I notice you are from Tas, perhaps Arithon could give you some pointers. PM him and find out.

This exactly the method the guys made fun of me for in the speedpaint at Auscon

"What are you, a pirate??" Well yes I am, suck it guys!

Haha you need a helper monkey to help hold your brushes and wash them out!

I've never gotten the hang of the two-brush method myself but it's interesting to see it in action by others.
