MiniPainters.

Welcome to MiniPainters!

MiniPainters is a website for miniature wargamers, painters, and hobbyists of all kinds.

MiniPainters has just launched, and to begin with I'm concentrating on creating the biggest and best paint reference on the internet.

Behind this message you can probably already see the paint comparison chart. Learn more about it here or just close this message to get started.

I just wanted to say a quick hello and not take up too much of your time. So for now, click the button below to get started!
