One more from me - A lot of mini-painter advocate for "batch-painting", say taking 10 marines and putting one color on each of them, when you finish 10th, 1st is dry and you can put next color. While the idea is sound - it's terrible for beginner painter, especially when you're not that into paiting. In my opinion: the lower the motivation, the smaller the batch. If I REALLY don't feel like painting, just get one mini (not necesarily a character, just a normal rank-and-file tropper) and paint him A-Z. You will feel better, because now you have one model 100% complete instead of 10 models 5% complete. Next time you might feel better about paiting more, so make it a batch of 3 models. And so on.

@@Zumikito It's especially bad if the first or second color you put takes a long time on a single mini, you might get exhausted and demotivated around model #7, and when you finish the batch, you'll don't want to paint for weeks, even if you did majority of the work.

This! I did the batch painting at the start, but my patience isn't that long. By the time the basecoats are done you're hours later, and you still haven't made anything good looking. Nowadays I take 2 minis at a time, and switch between them after each stage is done. This gives one enough drying time to keep going, which you can't do if I take only one. And once stopped i distract myself with other things and generally I don't continue. 3 on the other hand makes progress feel slow again. So 2 is the maximum for me.

One thing I like to do is have something ready to paint, something ready to prime, and something I want to build next (often keeping some of the already built parts in plastic organizers). Sometimes I might want to build instead of paint, and sometimes I'd rather paint than build. Having several projects going at once may make things slower, but it adds variety to what I'm doing and decreases the chances of burn out. Yesterday I finished Primaris Eradicators, today I can either paint my primed Redemptor Dreadnoughts or build my partially built Inceptors depending on what I'm in the mood for.

I've just gotten back into minis after a half decade in scale military. This was very helpful thank you. The thing I try to do habit wise is get something done by friday every week, not a finished model, just something. Then on friday, I do a self assessment of the work to see where I've improved, where i need more practice, and the highs and lows of the work itself. I'm not sure it's helpful for burn out, but it keeps me focused on the new skills I'm trying to learn.

Really great video. I would say that the number of things you do something the better at it you will get. Pushing your self is always good but there is a cost. I would also say focused practice is a great goal. Try one new effect or technique and just do a small thing on your next project. Never done NMM, do it on a piece that is small or more importantly not in view from the golden angle (Main angle of view for the mini.) You get to practice it and even if its horrible its not visible unless you show someone.

Last one - careful with asking for criticism A lot of people in social media will compare your mini to competion-level models. This can be shattering to your motivation. Most important thing is the model you've painted looks good to YOU. Your own "what is good" level will change over time, so the mini you've painted 3 years ago that you thought was "pretty good" might look today to "present you" like absolute atrocity. And it's supposed to be like this.

Any time you get non-constructive criticism, ask them to show you what _they_ have painted to see if they can walk the walk. Many times, they can't - or their stuff is actually worse. Those are the people you can bloc/mute/ignore/sanction. For those few that truly are more skilled and get better results, from there you can ask them how they did this or that and generally you'll find some constructive advice. Comparing your ability to others (especially professionals and studio painters) is definitely detrimental to motivation and self-esteem. But it is also good to study their work and see if there's something to be learned from it.

A tip I've found useful is to post your miniatures to a social media account you don't care about. I didn't have an Instagram or really care about the platform until I started trying to get better at painting. I post what I'm painting or building to my Instagram now and it's motivated me to keep going. When I have posted something recently, getting a random like from one of the mini painters I follow feels good, and when I haven't posted in a while, seeing the app on my phone reminds me that I haven't posted in a while and I should get back to painting.

With this l don,t feel like l'm putting pressure on myself and it makes it more enjoyable which is what the hobbies all about . Now l,ve returned to what l used to do ...either a long modelling period or a shorter one dependent on my mood or motivation . Enjoyable video Zumikito .

My tips: (At least what have help me in the past): - Do a list of what you have and do random selections (Like Goobertown) - Divide to conquer: Paint a small part of your mini, dont do everything in one sitting. - Have a Journal: This allows you to see progress. An Instagram account is a great way and combine with your list more. - Create "Journey" proyects: What, when, how and why. For example, i'm going to paint a Doom Miniature from Klukva, but i'm going to emulate the original art box, apply wetblending and trying to do it in one week.

Sadly, the thing that holds me back the most is this annoying procedure of mold line removal, which always feels like a waste of time to me. Mold lines are like a negative offset of miniature quality and you have to put in tedious work, just to bring it to the zero base line.

First tip was eaten by youtube monsters, so here goes again: About your #1 tip - exercise restraint while watching other peoples work, especially when you're new into hobby. You might see a brilliant mini posted somewhre, that the author put 10h to the head alone, you'll get a rush "YES, I want my models to look the SAME", grab your paints and brushes and then get crushed because (yes I'm gonna be harsh) your skills are not the same as that guy. Don't get "overmotivated", never be ashamed of anything you painted, you skills will increase over time. And keep your first painted model, even Duncan of House Two-Thin-Coats has his :)

Thank you for this amazing video! These advices are very , very helpful, as many times this hobby is quite demanding if you search for perfection, and its easy to let it wait until " you are motivades enough" . The problem is , that is not constant, so sometimes you paint a lot, and others , weeks and weeks go by and nothing happen. I believe the advice i think is the best one, is the first: Dont aim to do a specific goal, but to create an identity of somebody that paints regularly. Thanks again, please continue doing this kind of videos. Also, do you think that listening audiobooks help to paint? I ask because sometimes i love to listen to them, but i tend to do more mistakes . The opposite happen when i dont listen to any music, or i listen soft music, but then although i dont make so many mistakes, i lose motivation quite fast as its more boring :( Any help with that?

Thank you! I find some podcasts are easy to listen to while painting while other are heavy and get me thinking and lead to mistakesbor my focus all over the place. I think that you will have to fins what suits you the best and experiment with it :)

My problem is not lack of motivation but lack of skill. I've been trying to wet blend my Cold Ones skin for months and there's no way they came up good. I swear I've watched every video and read every guide available. I'd had them painted since November if I wasn't determined to do a damn wet blend.

what seems to be the problem? You might wanna try different paint brand if you are not able to blend the ones you use

@@Zumikito Hey, thanks for answering. I apologize if you see this mesage twice but I thought I sent a reply yesterday and I see it nowhere. I'm trying to wet blend Caliban Green and Rakarth Flesh for my Cold Ones skin. Basicaly, I got the idea of wet blending from this video (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fMWjat2LucWziHU.html ) because I made two different colors on their skin in my test model and it looked unnatural, so some kind of blend would make it more natural. I'm trying to achieve this painter's blend (instagram.com/p/CFW-dh-nuK1/ ) but with bad results. I've watched every video and read every guide available; painted several sprues etc and I don't get this technique. Photos are the worst quality posible (shitty camera) but here is what I'm achiving instagram.com/p/CHOP8LNpxDB/

Another tip that comes to mind is: while your painting equipment should be somewhere in sight, do *not* put it where you play videogames/work etc. Your brain already associates those spaces with those activities, which can distract you on a more subconscious level, eroding your ability to keep on task. So, if you have the space, use another in-sight location.

I think this video really only applies to people painting a LOT of minis. Lets be frank, as you said yourself, if you paint like one army or a game or one big mini cause it looks cool, changing your habbits feels overkill.

you are wrong about one thing in this video, the hardest part about the gym is the trip home with aching muscles and low energy even if you take something to refill it before leaving. Oh and the emancipating pain from leg day that follows one 1 to 2 whole days if you just skipped one. (yes i quit the gym years ago for those reasons and that i hate working out and sweating unnecessarily )

@@Zumikito hmm it may be that, but i was just so awfully sore in the whole bofy for weeks after each time and my then ex dragged me there thrice a week. will add i do not need to train as my physiq doesnt need it and i am below average in weight due to forgetting to eat while painting as the only things😅 she just got unhealthily fixated on training and wanted to drag someone else into it as to not suffer alone.. Needless to say, we are not together anymore, due to economic and personal reasons. And I am much happier but needs a bit motivation at time to get going with what I have of projects.
