Wow! Amazing looking figures and great looking table! How large is the playing area? And that's quite a lot of speed painting. Do you have any technique tips?

I love your 'battle mat.'  Is that home-made or a commercial product?

That's a great looking set up. If I can achieve those sorts of results I'd be a happy man.
