6mm is Easy! Painting Teeny Napoleonic British Infantry [How I Paint Things]

Turns out that I actually really enjoy painting miniatures the smaller they are - though I think I'd draw the line at 3mm figures!

Find Henry's miniatures on MyMiniFactory along with links to his other storefronts and physical prints here: https://www.myminifactory.com/users/h...

Also, check out the Kickstarter for the Europe Asunder: Waterloo range as seen in this video! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/... If you have your own printer, Henry's Kickstarter packs are always ludicrously good value; well worth checking out if you're interested in the era or even if you're looking to try something new with multiple armies included.
