When you're done, see your total time, a ticked list of what you worked on, and the paints you used. PROJECTS Track every mini, squad, and army. Add cover photos, set status (Planned, In Progress, Complete), link sessions, and build up a gallery of progress shots. RECIPES Save the exact combination of paints and steps that got you a result you're proud of.
