Sorastro: Star Wars Imperial Assault Painting Guide Ep.11: Chewbacca and Gaarkhan

I hope you all had a great holiday season! I meant to post this up but alias I’ve been sick!

Incase you needed some tips in painting those lovable fur balls you most certainly picked up last week, here is another wonderful tutorial from the master miniature painter himself, Sorastro. The tutorial features Chewbacca of course, but also includes Gaarkhan which gives you a second option for those Wookiee Warriors. After following these guides you should be able to create your own custom paint jobs for the rest of your walking carpets.

Hello! This is a beginner’s guide to painting both Gaarkhan and Chewbacca from Fantasy Flight’s Star Wars Imperial Assault miniatures game. (Buy the game here: http://amzn.to/2ph6ah5 or for the UK here: http://amzn.to/2k7ASu2)

-Series 56 flat brushes for dry brushing, size 3 for smaller areas, and size 6 for large:

-However, Series 768 are a much cheaper alternative you can use for dry brushing and will do the job just fine:
