How to use painting options in Moonbreaker

To paint figurines, use the color menu on the right side of the screen. Here, you'll find different painting techniques. If you're an avid figurines painter, you'll be right at home. As a new player, you'll need some help. Here's how to use different painting options in Moonbreaker.

What does the Paint option do in Moonbreaker?

• Press the Painting button to start with a base color. You can change color during this phase by simply clicking on another in the menu on the right side. You can also create a custom color in the lower right area of the screen. To avoid crossing the lines between segments, use the Toggle Auto Mask option.

What does the Wash option do in Moonbreaker?

Here, you'll see a dropper that you can use to select the color that you've already used on some parts of the model. This is important if you need to return to the Wash option later and you need the same color.

What does the Stipple option do in Moonbreaker?

• Use the Splatter paint option on a model to create decals. You can experiment with multiple color combinations depending on what look you want to achieve.
