    My two main takeaways are: Money is no substitute for skill, but it does save you time, effort and affords you more practise, and if you're wargaming on a budget, look at what Andy chose to spend his money on to know where the biggest bang for buck will land.

    Matter of facts (I never painted miniatures but use air brush in art school) air brush colors are just acrylic paint so you can use it with a brush for really cool effects and you don't need an air brush pistol to use it, but I get it he had a lot of good paint and just using the air brush colors the same way as the other paint would make much sense for just one figure cause space is limited😅
