Ah well, so long as they are fun to do then to me, it doesn't matter. When I paint, I use no guides what so ever :)! I just do whatever I feel like. I used to try and copy what was on the box for my COLLOSAL Lord of the Rings collection (most of which is still not painted :b) but then I realised that not only do fail completely at doing so, but I enjoy it more when I just say "screw it" and do it my own way. If you're talking about techniques, well my dad has been doing this for years, so I just ask him if I want some help. Not that I've had to do that for three years now, or that I'd even need to say anything for him to give me tips.

Arragh! Why must it take so long to paint an Oliphaunt! And Callum, you are so right.
