The definitive academy TO BOOST YOUR HOBBY
Weathering Haunt was born with the aim of bringing wargame fans the most powerful techniques to see their favorite armies and miniatures painted. Learning, community and wargames are the spinal cord of our online academy.
The basic pillars of our academy are:
1. THE WEATHERING HAUNT METHOD
We know how difficult it is to take the leap. Taking brushes seriously and launching into learning requires courage and dedication. We've been through it!
We know better than anyone the complexity of getting started "more seriously" in miniature painting. Our teaching method will guide you in all disciplines necessary to optimize learning.
ONLINE LEARNING COURSES
The Weathering Haunt method is designed in 4-week long learning courses. These courses are published by the Weathering Haunt team on the academy channels, offering a limited number of places. Before the start of each course, the course project is published (for example, the complete painting of a figure along with the mastery of specific techniques).
Once the course starts, starting with the first Monday of each month, we will share weekly learning materials. These materials include both written guides and highly detailed videos, with which students will work on the project.
These materials help achieve learning success, and require learn and refine the abilities.
Detailed painting guides: Each week of the cycle, students will receive a detailed guide on how to approach the miniature, what steps to carry out, what materials to use and any other details. The guides are developed with the greatest detail and accompanied by supporting audiovisual material.
Supplementary material: Learning cannot fall exclusively on a single miniature. Throughout the cycle, lessons will be shared on the Academy's YouTube channel. In the private learning group, any questions about any lesson on the channel will be analyzed and resolved.
2. TUTORIZATION
Throughout the learning process, students participate in a private learning group. The tutors respond to any questions or guidance that the students require, helping to enhance the assimilation of knowledge.
PRIVATE LEARNING GROUP
The tutors actively participate In this support group, I serve as a reference and answer the students' questions. Access to the group is shared privately with registered students.
This added encourages participation and motivation in achieving the course objectives. Sporadically, exclusive online workshops will be proposed to resolve doubts and demonstrate the techniques presented in the material.
At the end of the cycle, each student's figures are reviewed with advice, constructive criticism and guidance in terms of learning. In addition, feedback is collected with the aim of maintaining continuous improvement and collecting content of interest to students.
Additionally, the tutors will share their personal painting projects in the group, passing on new tips and notes.
Our experience supports us in that the support of tutors is essential to ensure optimal learning.
3. FOCUS ON WEATHERING TECHNIQUES
Painting a miniature is simple, painting a realistic miniature too. If we seek that our figures convey realism, that do not look like figures fresh from the factory, but rather show the wear and tear of combat or battle, we must apply weathering techniques.
Throughout the lessons of each learning cycle, we will introduce techniques and products to achieve the desired effects. The change in a miniature that has gone through the weathering process is notable, allowing
The magic of weathering
One of the characteristics of our academy is the enhancement of weathering techniques. These techniques are used to simulate realistic wear effects, such as scratches, dust, mud, etc. Weathering is easy to apply and provides a very powerful and realistic result, especially perfect for achieving incredible results in a short time.
Just as during painting work we must look for a realistic result, wear work must also be coherent. The effects of aging They are key to achieving high quality miniatures, but they require control and perfection to master them.
4. Specialization in wargames
Although Weathering Haunt is an academy geared towards all types of painters, We know that a large part of the fans start through wargames.
Within the academy we pay attention to this detail and offer additional techniques and advice for those who wish to hone your skills by painting armies.
Multiple themes and scales
Like many fans, We began our journey in modeling from wargames. We know in depth the particularities of these games, their settings and their limitations.
With the aim of providing a differentiating element, Weathering Haunt largely focuses the objective of its painting on wargame miniatures:
- Multiple themes and settings: The academy covers both science fiction, fantasy and historical miniatures.
- Variety of scales: The lessons will cover both 28mm and, to a lesser extent, other common scales in wargames (15mm, 32mm, etc.).
- Popular figures: In the learning cycles we will propose popular miniatures that allow the academy miniatures to be reused in their corresponding wargames.
- Search for efficiency: We know that painting armies is tedious. Especially if you are looking for a high level of quality. At Weathering Haunt we will discuss methodologies and techniques to maximize the paint ratio.
Weathering techniques They offer a perfect synergy with wargames. On the one hand, they are quick techniques to apply, while on the other, they provide great realism.
Mastering weathering techniques will allow us create impressive armies, with a high level of detail and realism andn very efficient time ratios.
