Mini Class : What’s the Deal ?
Don’t have the age for summer camps anymore ? You’re not keen on ClubMed ? Painting with just some old magazines and Internet is as motivating as a diner with your stepparents ? Come and do a mini class, to paint minis. !
For three days, 12 mini painters will meet to share pleasure and progress and under the well-advised critics and the motivating whip lashes of a professional painter.
Theoretic presentations to remind you of the general concept and principals of painting and an alternance between collective demonstrations and individual teachings make these classes intensive learning experiences. The mini teacher adapts his lessons to every participant to allow everyone an evolution adapted to his level, his personality, and his level. The passion with witch participants share their experience, puts in place an atmosphere charged with creative energy and enthusiasm, which exalts students of all ages and of all levels. Whether you are a beginner or a confirmed painter you will feel at ease and right where you belong
List of mandatory material for participants :
Brushes of Different and appropriate sizes. I highly recommend the raphaël 8404 T0, 8400 T0, 8404 T 2/0. The end result will really show the difference while you work and assimilate new technique. You can find them in good art stores. Sometimes the organizer does a grouped command, contact him in that case.
Various acrylic paints : Prefer the Games Workshop ones, Prince August or model colors are ok, stay clear of Rackham and Andrea.
Super glue
Lights : Two if possible with daylight bulb or powerful (100W is fine). Small bedside lamps are to stay away from. Prefer lamp that can be oriented like architect’s lamps.
Cutter, various files, X-acto, scalpel and blades
Hand dremel, wire of different diameter (0.7, 0.8, 0.9 mm)
Eventually the theme mini of the class, unless the organizer is charged with getting them.
Come with colored cloths. Trust me on that.
Don’t forget to come with your old minis to show off, for a more personalized class and to get a sense of your progression.
Preferred complementary List

Thin sandpaper 800 or 1000
Base material, static grass, sand, small rocks.
GreenStuff/Milliput (the red box is nice)
Games Workshop undercoats white and/or black
Sticky paste
Portable computer and some blank Cds, getting reference material is very useful

FAQ
Following a discussion on Forums and during preceding classes, here’s a FAQ to prepare the classes correctly.
Q1) what is the layout of the days ?
No two classes are the same. My professional experience at Illyade games and Andrea have contributed to make my technique change and improve. My technique and priorities change. So my advice and technique change from class to class. The schedule also depends of the class mini, of the student’s level and what they want to do. But, usually the three days are usually cut out as follows. Prep work the first day, technical exercises the second day ( blend, washes, glazes,…), and then a more artistic opening the third day (colors, mood, ect.)
Day1 : Removing mold lines, filing, milliput juices, dilution, color theory, Once all is understood it allows us to concentrate on the actual application of theory,
Day2 : Zenithal lighting theory and application, highlighting and shading….the mastering of blending then allows the more theoretical concepts and some specifics…
Day3 : Color theories and application, skin and Face, Light points… It’s often the face and the richness of its tints that allows me to start on this…
Then on the last half day, we go on to more relaxing things : Metals ( NMM or not), freehand, gems, details, Varnish, enamels, bases, base material, paints, how to use natural bas material, compositions.. We also do an examination of the various mistakes made during the class by going back on them.
Q2) what are the Daily hours?
9h-14h then 14h-19h is already very dense. If the room is available later on in the day students always appreciate some more relaxing painting and free.
Q3) how do the days fold out ?
In the morning, spirits behind more awake, I do more delicate subjects ( faces, blending). I do the difficult theories and application that require high level of alert. The afternoon is more of a more personal application. I noticed that progress largely show themselves on the second day, and even more so on the third day. So theory is mostly on the first two-day and application on the last two.
