Today we're talking stippling, which is basically just poking a bunch of little dots on your minis, sure... But it can also be a little bit more than just that. We'll discuss the basics of stippling, offer a few tips and talk a bit about a way I've found is helpful to think of this technique, as well as share an example of using stippling to create texture from one of my minis.
