Very enjoyable "Start to paint" course
I recently followed the “Start to Paint” course, and I have to say, it was an absolute game-changer for my miniature painting journey. As a complete beginner who had never touched a brush, I was unsure where to start, but this course made it incredibly accessible and fun.
The course was structured in a way that eases you into the basics. It covers everything from understanding color theory to mastering brush techniques. I appreciated how Weke took the time to explain not just the “how,” but also the “why” behind different painting techniques/ paints. It made the learning process feel less intimidating and more like a creative exploration.
Weke was engaging, clear, and very approachable. He broke down the new concepts into digestible chunks, making sure I could follow along. I really appreciated the step-by-step guidance. Plus, there was always room for questions, which made the experience feel more personalized.
I’ll definitely be back for more classes in the future.
Pure passie!
2u privé les gehad van Werner en het was super inspirerend!
Op maat gewerkt en er was ruimte voor al mijn vragen,
Bedankt!
Learning the technical aspects of mini painting
I have already been painting for a few years but it’s mostly self-taught and I did not have any experience using paint. During a two-hour session in a cosy studio, we covered a lot of the bases I was missing and I feel like it can really help me up my game considerably! Definitely worth investing in some lessons to solidify your mini painting knowledge.
Great course
Today, my 12-year-old daughter and I took a start-to-paint course. It was a fantastic experience. We received a warm welcome in a very pleasant and suitable setting. The instructions were very clear and tailored to beginners, with lots of tips and personal feedback. A very enjoyable activity to do with (creative) children.
Een absolute aanrader!
De Start to Paint was voor mij de beste manier om eindelijk een werkbare en goede uitleg te krijgen over de basistechnieken van het schilderen van miniaturen.
Werner ontvangt je enthousiast en met open armen in zijn prachtige en zeer functioneel ingerichte studio.
Alle theorie over de basistechnieken in de komende lessen, alsook kleurentheorie om een interessante mini op tafel te zetten, komt in de eerste les aan bod. Dit alles gevolgd door een eerste praktijkoefening op een miniatuur.
Alle daaropvolgende lessen zijn pure praktijk, waarbij je samen met Werner de basistechnieken oefent op de door hem voorziene miniaturen. Elke handeling volgt hij op om je bij te sturen waar nodig of om je te voorzien van handige tips en tricks.
De hele lesreeks van, in totaliteit, 6 uren is voorbij gevlogen en lieten mij elke week al uitkijken naar de volgende afspraak. Met een gids als Werner aan je zijde krijg je met de Start to Paint méér dan waar voor je geld.
Great lesson!
I took a private lesson in the good looking, new, well equipped painting studio. Werner is a great teacher, paying attention to your way of painting, helping you out with lots of info, theory, practical exercises, available tools to try out, … I went home with lots of tips and tricks. This really made me wanna paint more minis!
Super leerrijk, zelfs voor niet beginners!
Ik volgde onlangs de Start to Paint-lessen en hoewel ik al enkele mini’s had geschildered, waren de lessen ontzettend leerzaam. Een absolute aanrader voor iedereen die zijn basistechnieken wil verbeteren. Alles wordt helder uitgelegd en er wordt gefocusd op je werkpunten waar nodig, wat echt een verschil maakt!
Awesome lessons
Took some lessons to help me improve my painting skills. The lessons comprised of an excellent mix of theory and painting itself. The direct feedback while painting helped me so much already! I would recommend these lessons to everyone that wants to improve their skills.

Best teacher!
Very friendly and helpful.
Would recommend if you are a beginner starting your painting journey or if you just want some more tips.
Or if you just want a community full of friendly people to paint with!
Super lessen voor miniature painting
We hebben de start to paint curcus geboekt bij Weke. Het was een super ervaring waar hij heel duidelijk en gestructureerd alle stappen van het schilderen van miniatures uitlegt. De sterkte van deze lessen is dat hij heel gericht advies geeft om je schilderen te verbeteren. Hij is heel goed in het aanleren ervan, we zijn er sterk op vooruit gegaan!
Back to basics: learning to look at minipainting like a pro
I just had my first lesson at Werner’s and I’ve already learned so much! Werner is a superfriendly teacher, patiently guiding you to a better technique. He teaches you to look at your mini like the professionals do; improving your work with a few simple steps. Looking forward to the next class!
