Why you should try oil washes for your miniatures

Here's a quick tutorial of the most essential miniature painting techniques I use on any squad or larger sized project, the oil wash. It's become a lot more popular in the last couple of years, and for good reason! I literally could not tell you where my Nuln Oil is these days. Plus, oil tubes don't spill!

The Kommandos I painted for this video are going to the FLGS' fundraiser for Kids Kupboard, a non-profit dedicated to ending child hunger in my area of Alaska. If you want to help out, you can donate at the link below.
