In Episode 133 of Paint Perspective, James and Paul sit down to explore three miniature painting styles / languages: Box Art, Grimdark, and Volumetric painting, and how each approach can create completely different results for your Warhammer models.

From clean and vibrant studio finishes to dark and gritty realism, all the way through to dramatic competition-style lighting, the guys discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each style, who they might suit best, and how finding the right approach can completely change your hobby journey.

Whether you are painting for the tabletop, social media, or competition display cabinets, this episode is all about helping you discover which style might be right for you or fun to try.
