The promise of the new year is the promise of a new, better you. “Yes, I will eat those vegetables,” you say. “Yes, I will do the dishes,” you proclaim. “Yes, I will paint my miniatures,” you howl from the rooftops.
But we know it can be a daunting prospect to stare down at your assembled host, paintbrush in hand and grand designs on your head. That’s why we’ve got some of our best tips together to help you get started on your new army and quickly whip them up into a Battle Ready state.Even the greatest artists had that moment where they first felt the weight of a brush in their hand, and for just such an occasion we have two compact starter sets featuring Space Marines and Necrons. Each box includes paints, a brush, and even some models to practice on. Go ahead and pick up both, and watch them glare menacingly across the table at each other.
For the denizens of the Mortal Realms, we also have paint sets featuring Sigmar’s own Stormcast Eternals and the gloomy denizens of the Nighthaunt.
Now that you're properly equipped, it's time to put the 'army' in New Year, New Army. Fortunately, this is no more complicated than picking up a Start Collecting! set or Combat Patrol of your choice for Warhammer Age of Sigmar or Warhammer 40,000 and diving into the fray, paintbrush in hand. You'll have a force you can be proud of in no time.
And if you're looking for some tips to get you started – we did promise you tips, after all, so you'd be well within your rights to demand them – Warhammer TV's got you covered.
