Rising Ape Painting Workshops are the perfect place to learn to paint miniatures from some of the best in the world and at the same time join an incredible community of people to share your hobby.
As this was my first time painting with real paint instead of contrast, I wasn't expecting to be any use, and figured a lot of the teaching would go over my head, but I'd have fun anyway. I was so wrong! your teaching style is so welcoming and inclusive, I got so much out of the day! I've learned loads, and I'm looking forward to putting it into practice on my burrows and badgers minis soon!

"Most people stay in the local Travelodge and are happy to give lifts to people who don't drive as well so it's easy to get to."
[Rising Ape here, I am always happy to organise pick ups too, either from Airports or rail]
