Jess, is here to show you! Once again we venture into unkown territories

cover all the basics of painting your tiny heros, including bases,
drybrushing, watering that paint down, how to not have wonky eyes, and
much more!

This workshop is free to attend, but if you would like
to paint a mini figure along with us, we have model paints and brushes
for you to use, and the mini you get take home afterward for a $15 fee.
(This fee will also cover one regular soda or bottled water and snack

attention, as you and your friends learn a new skill that you can use
for all your future RPG needs!

you can use the discount to purchase your own starter paint set and
brushes and more miniatures to work on.
