A cold toned base of blues and greens to contrast the warm tones of the model.

There will be some proper pictures at some point.

Ngl I was especially proud with how well that swimming pool worked out. 1mm acrylic, backsprayed blue, ruled with white cellulose paint. Water surface was clear acrylic sheet set into a slot in the walls. Multiple stippling passes of emulsion glue.

Closeups of the Oracle pool before it got populated with minis and stuffed in a display case. Considering it's at most 6mm deep overall, the illusion's pretty convincing I think.

Unicorn blood can make its' drinker immortal. The main issue is *getting* that blood without falling prey to these carniverous, fleet-footed, super-intelligent horned predators...

I either heard a woodpecker or a Predator on my walk back this morning.

I hope it's a woodpecker, It's Monday, I'm not prepared for a Predator.

saw someone post that the only conspiracy theory they believe in is that professor brian cox is bald and wears a hairpiece. now i can't unsee it. i am a brian cox hairpiece truther. his spiritual baldness is why he's like that, it explains everything.

Do you want to know what I'll be painting next?

It's Beowulf! Also from @fenrisgames.com

I asked my historical reenactment friend for colour advice and he said lots of different colours was a sign of wealth and then shouted "But don't paint him rainbow!"

I think I have a reputation. 😂

Also new to the Fenris shop this month: A OWL

Another re-released Otherworld model, sculpted by our very own @snuurg.bsky.social and now part of our range.

A OWL, though.

kinda the opposite to when a bird shits on your head
not for nothin but the fascinus is a winged phallus charm from roman times meant to ward off evil and specifically the evil eye. when invoked, the fascinus should fly around and spit in the eye of your enemy
