Happy New Year!
A year of Hadreys

I painted a bumper crop of halfling warlocks this year designed by folks like @twingoddessminis.bsky.social , @awkwpengu.bsky.social , Mia Kay, Tamzin, and even carved and printed a block print myself.

Hope to get more done in 2026!

My technical difficulties with eBay, Payoneer and Etsy developed in a way I could never predict.
Payoneer rejected my ID (the very same it approved!), and is closing my account. Which means I can no longer sell anywhere other than Ko-Fi, at least for now...
And I still need to get rid of stuff.

I finally got around to sculpt and cast Mynah.
The arms ended up a little big, but I'm satisfied with the rest.
For comparison: Eule over there is average human height.
#miniaturepainting #signalis
A photo of two painted models: a human-size replika Eule, with black and white sections, and a much larger Mynah, wearing a bulky sult with grey armour. Mynah is carrying a mining laser, industrial yellow weapon-like tool. Mynah, view from the left. She has MNHR written on the shoulder. Mynah. View from the right. On this shoulder, is a schematic picture of an orange and blue bird.

On a dusty pink background, a colorful render of a ttrpg miniature on a base: a young pink-haired unicorn-like person in stylised medieval clothing holding a white rose in one hand and holding the other on their chest.

Another Evangelion-inspired interior.
#tabletopterrain #miniaturepainting #evangelion
Angled view of a pale green room, with sections of dark orange and grey stripes. There are markings on the walls and doors, and a figure in orange suit in the corner. Photo of this room's half, with two doors in the same wall divided by a striped section. The other wall has some pipes. Photo of the second half. Doors in the middle of either side. One has striped sections to both sides, the other has a striped line down the middle.

I decided, I want a half-demon character. "Half-demon" in the most literal sense.

Would you like to adopt him as an NPC? I bet he's awesome, and surely not traumatised at all 🙃

On a teal background, a wax-colored render of a 3d model depicting a ttrpg character: a young warrior with a halberd. The right side of him is fiendish: a hooved leg, a clawed hand, a bat-like wing, a curved horn, and a pointy ear. The other - human, more clothed, a halbered in his hand, and a boot on his foot. In the lower left corner Awkward Penguin's Logo, on the right of it words "Available on Patreon" and "pre-supported".

And look at that… a few new faces have appeared. Elegant outfits, refined features — how did such aristocrats even end up in a place like this?
Although, they do look a bit too pale…

Today's cyberpunk kitbash inspired by still-in-progress artwork by @lettuces.bsky.social .
#miniaturepainting #inq28 #kitbash
A painted model of a running cyborg with very large mechanical arms and a full helmet. They are wearing a hazard-striped codpiece, and a black crop top. Top has an ornament of a white rectangle with a black X in it. Colours are largely muted, near monochrome - with exception being bright pink and bright yellow, mostly cables. View from the left. The left arm ends in a hefty circular saw. A thick yellow cable connects it with elbow. View from the back. View from the right. The right hand is a massive industrial-looking fist, with pink and white hazard stripes.

Now as a terrain piece.

Life's a trash-fire, atm, might share later, but for now, I'm just trying. Not my best, just trying.

Hey, have I already shown you this nature-themed axe, I made some time ago?

Please help me clear through my immense hoard of painted miniatures.
Without Americans, the pile is growing much faster than before. They are now everywhere.

Back to mecha with The Cheapest Model Kit In Existence.
(it's cast in some weird plastic, entirely unaffected by acetone. So this model is assembled on construction adhesive)

A robot, desaturated teal with black skeleton - on its knees, leaning forward, with a metal rod piercing its chest. There's a human soldier in front of it for scale, and the robot's crestfallen head is about two times higher. View from the back. There are decals in a few places, and a couple dark pink cables. View from the opposite side.
