Hobby Content Producer Chris Bilewicz is a painting maestro, and with all the excitement around the very-soon-to-be-released Epic Battles: Revolution!, he’s here to give you some great advice for painting up your British and Continental infantry for the American War of Independence. Whether you’re just starting out in Epic Battles scale, or a veteran collector of small soldiers (and elephants!), you’ll be certain to find plenty of useful tips and tricks in the video below!
Being a helpful sort, Chris has also provided his recipes in written form – you can see them both below. All of the paints are from The Army Painter’s Warpaints Fanatic line, and can be found on our webstore!
