This is my painting and wargaming hobby profile. Mostly painting, barely wargaming.
Saloon raiders and Stagecoach Mary, plus a vampiress from @badsquiddogames.bsky.social. I really enjoyed painting up these well dressed ladies and the challenge of silkyish garments for the vampire for my old west games. Mary came with an info card that was really cool, nice drawing on it too.

Just seen I've been given a runner up award in the #ontabletop Community awards for painting so much of my dreadball stuff. I did enjoy painting them and I think that has helped. Also I should probably keep using one name for everything, I've used Gaiseric08 since I left school.

Merry Christmas guys. I'll put up Blondie from #deadmanshand #greatescapegames. Pretty happy with him, not perfect by a long shot, but happy with him. I do fancy doing one of those 9 panel shots with things painted this year, but dead mans hand is my hyperfocus and would make up most of the panels.

My #deadmanshand Cavalry Kickstarter came today. Couldn't wait to get it open and have agood look through. Was lucky enough to get the update for the pledge manager mid day yesterday. Recieved in less than 24 hours. Amazing service from #greatescapegames! Models look amazing! Can't wait to assemble!

Dreadball nameless team, the Kalimarin Ancients. Really enjoyed painting these and loved how alien and gribbly they were. The temptation to go with a cthulhu theme was really strong, but I found something from stellaris I really liked and stuck with it.

Finished basing a few characters for dead mans hand. Their horses are lovely to paint. Got to be said. I finished tuco from the good, thr bad and the ugly, Calamity Jane from Deadwood plus the dead cavalryman from Draculas america.

Dreadball coaches and side characters. Love the character of these guys. The lady in the middle i used the box art for colour scheme. The 2 zees in the trenchoat pretty much painted themselves. The water worm i loosely based on Slurms mckenzie from Futurama! Wimmy wham wham wazzle!

This lovely badger was such a joy to paint. As soon as I saw him I knew i needed him but also he would be quite challenging for my skill level. I really like his character and he goes so well with the shrew. Definitely proud of this guy!

Elmer and dobby, commentators for Dreadball. An unnecessary piece maybe, but full of character essential for me for the feel. It's not a sports game unless youve got commentators, coaching staff, med bots, cheerleaders and plenty of fans. Really enjoyed painting these guys.

My Pioneers posse for #greatescapegames' #deadmanshand painted up. I really enjoyed painting these guys. The miniatures capture the characters really well. The series was such a great watch and when these were coming out I had to pick them up. Such a cool eclectic posse!

Dreadball team of sphyr players. Liked these guys as it gave me the option to try shark skin. Plus I picked a character from voltron as inspiration for the uniforms as a guide. Really happy with how they look as a team.

One of the newish newts for Burrows and Badgers. Really liked painting this guy. He was a lesson in washes multiple times to get and affect. Really happy with him.

My long eared owl for B&B. Was a nice characterful miniature to paint. My main issue was what to paint on the banner. Went with diamonds and paw prints. The paw prints don't translate so well in the photos lol. Really happy with how he came out.

Some starfinder characters I've painted up as I've gone along and the colours have been in the pallet. Not amazing by any stretch, but am please. Will go back in and add little details. Intended use is for a bit of both starfinder rpg and oaching/staff/cicilians for dreadball!

The Buffalo soldiers for dead mans hand. Easily my favourite dead mans hand posse I've painted up. I enjoyed every minute painting these guys. They absolutely pop and am so happy with the uniforms. Can't wait to paint up the reinforcement 3. Maybe need to rebook at my 7th cavalry. #deadmanshand

Painted up my matsudan for sreadball 2. I want to go back in and add some orange points on the trouser armour. The main emphasis was the skin, wanted that to draw the eye. Really proud of these guys.

The coolest little hard guy I've painted. The shrew mercenary is such a cool sculpts with loads of character. Was really nice to paint, and enjoyed the challenge of his size. Totally worth it. Love the little Dude. He looks great next to the badger mercenary.

My Mole Knight. Really happy with how he has turned out. Feel like calling him a chronoknight. Feels right. Was really happy with how the bronze has come out.

Continuation of my Mordheim Beastman Warband. This is an Ungor.

These are surprisingly challenging & heavy detailed.
