***The Ten Commandments of Miniature Painting are***

1) thou shalt always strive to not self-deprecate

2) thou shalt be proud of thine Good Works, for they are truly Good Works

3) thou shalt bestow on the work of others, regardless of skill level, compliments (just find something they did well) or emoji such as heart (any colour), heart-eyes et cetera, or other affirmation
(1/3)

5) thou shalt not offer painting advice or suggestions for improvement unprompted

6) thou shalt not painteth when thou dothst not feeleth like it. Thou hast a job, school, or chores for that
(2/3)

7) thou shalt not compare thine work with that of thine neighbour before thou hast compared thine work to thine past work

8) thou shalt take pictures of wash, paint or glue spills before cleaning them up

9) thou shalt better not drink paint water unless thou knowest the toxicity level is okay

10) thou shalt not make too much of a habit of cleaning thine brush in thine tea, coffee or other beverages

@erikcats 11) The fact that this is your first Warhammer miniature is irrelevant if you already have years of experience in painting other kind of miniatures/models. Stop posting expertly painted minis claiming they are your first. It plays havoc with the self-esteem of us, true noobs.
@erikcats @nerdlings @warhammercommunity so much spot on. The 5th is an eternal struggle for me - but I am improving.
