It would be nice with a guide for speed painting each major race. Obviously some schemes are impossible to speed paint, but it would give players the option of at least one quick scheme for their chosen race, if they just want some miniatures on the table in a hurry.
Brainstorming easy schemes:
Nurgle Death Guard
Imperial Guard green or sand monochrone/two color camo
Most Space Marines that aren't black or white. (ie. classics like Dark Angels, Ultramarines, Blood Angels, IMperial Fists)
Evil Sunz
I am a bit unsure when it comes to Eldar, as I generally find them rather time consuming to paint.
Awesome work on those IG, they look really really nice. Really like the camo.
I have mentioned before that I would like to one day see a 6mm painting and terrain guide (Pdf or such) , in the same vein as the Epic fan expansions, that would cover ever thing from basics to more advanced guides. But I sadly wouldn't know where to start on such a thing, but I think it would be very good idea, especially for newer players, or for those of us that were not gifted with painting talent. I could contribute, but it would be limited to basic nurgle or rat schemes, and even then I'm no master painter.
I struggle to advance my painting any further, I can just go slower! But with things like 40k there is loads of youtube videos, books, and you can walk in to any store and be taught. Encouraging people to paint 6mm isnt as easy as there is always the road block of not being able to be shown how to improve, unless you are lucky enough to be around talent!
I definitely would be interested in seeing a speed guide to painting tanks, especial camo, and even more so if with out an air brush! I have tried several times, and I can never make it look good, one of the main reasons I have only painted orks, space skaven and nurgle!
