FAQ

What are the essential hobby supplies for model-making?

While there may be a few diverging opinions out there, Flipside Gaming recommends you stock up on Mod Podge, tacky glue, paint brushes specifically for glue application, tweezers, craft blades, a cutting mat, and acrylic paint. As you settle into your preferred model-making hobby, you’ll learn which tools are best for your needs.

What are the best paints for miniatures?

The best paints definitely depend on your preferences and price point. Flipside Gaming recommends Citadel for a large selection and premium results, as well as The Army Painter if you’re just getting started and need something a little more affordable. 

You’ll also want to build a palette with light, medium, and dark options that can create base coats, highlights, and shadows for highly detailed and realistic results. If you’re just buying your first paint set, start with 10 colors that offer versatility and allow you to mix up different shades.

What are the most essential brushes for painting minis?

Sometimes, it’s best to start with a brush set that covers all the basics. However, when browsing sets, make sure they include round sizes from 0 to 4. You may want multiple sets of the same brush size so you don’t have to clean brushes between colors as often. Sizes 0 and 1 will do a ton of heavy lifting, so prioritize those hobby supplies above others
