thank you both, it has been v fun using this method, and amazingly quick! ... too quick really, i didn't expect to be looking at buying another set so soon

excited to practice some more "display style" painting once these are done, im making a squad of reivers i will paint up in black using a standard brush as desk objects from left over sprues

but the sponging makes painting up 20+ models of various sizes and detail barable and i will likely keep doing this method for anything i hope to actually play a game with so if i want to expand it i won't feel "painters dread"

One of the cool things about these kind of methods is you can always go back and add more. You could add more highlights / weathering / shadows to those models, but they're great as they are.

I find my enjoyment level for painting is somewhere above basic tabletop standard but somewhere below display level. Display level takes too long for results, pure tt standard feels results and not process driven so takes out some fun for me. All about finding that sweet spot.

I'm the same. I don't have the patience to paint a single model for 5+ hours unless it's a really special one so I aim to do tabletop +. So many of my models get painted to a simple tabletop level for an event with the plan to finish them later which never happens.
