Now that I see that hashtags are working on here I should probably repost some of my #Gunpla for higher visibility to #gundam fans
lucidnonsense.org
You can't see a huge difference in today's work, but I got a clear coat on to seal in the decals, primed the flags and darked down the scenery a little so there will be more contrast once I add the snow.

A Blood Angels Infernus Space Marine wielding a Pyreblaster. The marine is painted red with black trim and a yellow imperius on the chest. his mask/respirator is painted blue (Because I think these guys are fire support, but I really can't tell anymore since they moved away from tactical/assault/devastator squads)

It’s Friday! Hurrah!

The weather is grey and damp so this week the theme is…hot.

So let’s see those flames

As usual I’ll repost the lot and if you like something, share it!

Started work on decals today.
Trying to split the difference between Gundam level decals and something more restrained and 40k esque.

@lucidnonsense.org asked me if I could do a sumi e-style wolf portrait for his Gundam secret Santa. This is what I did :D #painting #BskyArt #artyear #art #artist #blueskyartist #SumiE
Ink portrait of a wolf howling at the red sun fading over the mountains. The painting is done in loose, sumi-e or minimalist style, done in red and black ink (the black ink is in varied shades as I watered it down)

I have gotten so used to painting Gunpla that I forgot how much time edge highlights can take, especially when the model is all edges. Next up the gloss coat and decals.

Someone once complained to my employer about my posts on social media. - While I was part of the company social media team. - Fortunately my boss's response was to tell me to make sure my employer's name wasn't listed anywhere public.

if you're wondering why I'm so cagey about my new job, it's because years ago I worked at a pediatric office in Texas, and someone contacted them to say I was tweeting HIPAA violations (I was not because I'm not stupid) and almost got me fired. I really like this job so far and I'm not gonna risk it

Today's project outside of writing: Nyalenti-Nyabolo from the #30MS line from @bandainamcousa.bsky.social. This is the unarmored form: still have her cannon bike to do, and seeing if I want to put her in armor. #Girlpla #Plamo #Plamodel #Bandai

Started working on some more parts of the big project today and someone asked me for a shot showing how I attached the shield parts to the drone. So I took this picture and I find something very pleasing about the composition.

towards the center of the image is an off white T'au drone, surrounding the drone is an energy field represented by a partial sphere of green hexagons. The sphere is supported by a clear acrylic rod attached to the drone. The drone itself rest atop a piece of armature wire modeled to look like rebar, below the drone you see the top of a larger models base forming an arc. The whole arrangement sits on a green cutting mat with a grid pattern interspersed with different sized circles.

More work on my cerulean project entry, just a few highlights here and there but I did take the torso of its handle and attached the left arm to make sure all the positioning was correct. I may have jumped the gun though as now I have nowhere to hold.

Twisted nightmare or magnificent dream?

Built this Exalted Keeper of Secrets before GW released the plastic kit but didn't finish painting it until the recent Witney narrative event gave me a surge of inspiration.

#seekingslaanesh #miniaturemonday #ageofsigmar #WarhammerCommunity
Front view of the Exalted Keeper of Secrets. Mask reflects the sky & the river of souls. Within its torso are those it absorbed as its source of energy. Converted from the Eldar Wraithknight, Tyranid limbs & Bloodwrack Shrine. Side view, showing off the many three-coloured gemstones & giant sword resting on its shoulder. Other side view, with outstretched hand mockingly offering temptation, while its scything talons are at rest. Trim, all the trim.

This weeks work. Main torso is coming along nicely. Got a few more bits to paint and attach. Need to assemble most of it before I can work on the right arm, but I think I am going to do decals and washes before I do that/ I was also finally able to do a test assembly on the shield drone.

The head and torso of a Tau battle suit from warhammer 40k it is Black and blue with white trim and yellow accents. An unpainted Tau drone with a spherical shield made out of hexagons in the style of a geodesic sphere formed from clear resin.

On October 21st Lychee Slicer announced they are now selling AI Generated 3D models in an attempt to take money away from real artists. The AI generator is trained on on real models from real artists. Help us boycott and spread awareness.

So Lychee put out another bullshit statement about their GenAi crap and of course their discord is popping off again. In the midst of this a user drops a link to "something" it wasn't up for long and then a mod posts saying that they understand people are upset but don't advocate for piracy. LMFAO 🤣

Finished the armored version of Camilla this morning, along with her weapons. These are the two versions, side-by-side. #Girlpla #Plamo #Plamodel
Two small plastic girls stand on a wooden floor with a marble backdrop. The screen-left figure has grey hair and red-and-black armor. She is dashing forward, brandishing a long, flaming whip. She has bat ears, and spiky bits on her armor. On screen right is the unarmored version of the same model. Her hair is blond, and she wears black thigh-highs and a black cut out one-piece outfit baring her torso. She holds a double-bladed weapon upright, with one end embedded in the ground.

Here's 3 Gunpla builds to get to know me.

This mobile suit is a combination of the Woundwort, Barzam and Aqua Hambrabi kits painted in the AoZ Black Hares livery

Great start today, get up and the heat's not working (inconvenient but at least it did it now and not in the dead of winter) and then I find out that Lychee slicer has started some GenAI bullshit. So now I have to figure out if I want to try ChituBox again or give something else a try.
