I've painted a couple of figures over the past year or two but this is my first army having tried to get into it a lot more these past few weeks.

I did them all one by one going one colour at a time. Printed on my 3d printer, comments and suggestions are very welcome. I would love to get a lot better!

My girlfriend went over them with a really watery brown to make them look dirty, isn't that basically what a wash is?

Yes on a resin printer. Thank you!

Its similar to that but i think they behave a bit different. Its more just making the shadows pops and giving some texture. It is completely optional and down to preferences. Example here No worries, you should be proud of them.

I'm definitely open to it. I have one called strong wash that was just in the basic paint set I got. But I tried to use it on my character mini and it just seemed to make everything like black and gross

Maybe something to experiment with like everything with minis, I find a little goes a long way. There is never a final project 😉
