Pretty much just Miniature Painting, all the way down! Mostly, but not only, Warhammer!

And now also with a blog for longer-form rambles on my minature painting projects! - mangominis.substack.com
Tiny Chamelon Skink as a test scheme for the squad. Will be doing the rest in between a couple larger projects I'm working on, just to break it all up a bit!

Was a quick one, partly because he's very very small.

Slann was so well-recieved over the weekend, that I got stuck into his little Skink friends. Who I think I enjoyed even more, honestly...

They're very, very tiny though. Might be some of the smallest models I've painted...

A WIP for the Slann Starmaster I've finally got around to starting! Working on his little Skink friends just now as a wee break before going back to this guy to start tidying him up!

Lord of Plagues painted up as one of the Drowned. Done in a couple weeks for an online competition; not enough time to do him justice but happy with him overall.

54mm-scale 'Bjorn the Conqueror' from Daybreak Miniatures.

This guy was painted up as a gift for a friend an was my first time working at this scale - enjoyed it immensely, but definitely underestimated the difference in time required!

Working on a project that's longer than usual, so posting more backlog stuff in the interim.

Shyish-inspired Skaven from awhile ago - with glowing rat-gheists and cold purples! Intend to do the whole box in this theme eventually...

Born of legend! A very tiny dragon hatching, courtesy of Rescale Miniatures.

A quick project, so not as refined as I'd usually like, but I really like the atmosphere and am happy overall. Painted as a gift for display on a desk!

Second Terminator done, probably the last for a little while due to a couple other projects.

Arm's magnetised so the weapon can be switched out but I've only painted the assault cannon so far anyway.

Back on the Cairn Wraiths for a bit with some Terminators, to celebrate 2 years back in the hobby!

Freehanded the knotwork, which went a lot more smoothly than I expected. These guys deserve the extra attention, I think!

Wrapping up the first wee squad of 'Frosjawz' - big, frosty green lads from the even bigger, frostier north!

Intend to do the whole Spearhead going forward, finishing up with a second go at the Megaboss!

Had this guide up on Reddit, and wanted to post it here too - Ice Weapons (or other bits!) guide.

This is how I paint ice things just now, based on a slightly refined approach than for the Megaboss from earlier... hope it helps someone!

Refining the Megaboss - a project that took me almost 2yrs - into a scheme I can paint in 2 days!

The Megaboss started as a max effort thing 2 years ago to develop my skills. Seeing what I can do in two days makes it all worth it!

Finishing the year, in the winter spirit, by finally finishing up my 'Norcscan' Megaboss. He's been 90% painted for almost a year now, so I can see the places I could do better now I think, but I'm pleased with the end result anyway!

Finished the Seraphon Spearhead! Still got last year's Christmas Box to go, but nice to see something playable come together after so long working on it...

Holgrim, painted for Richard Gray's Bonezone competition. This guy was done in a mad rush (about 8 days) - shockingly, he wasn't quite up to the standard of the competition but I did have a grand ol' time with both model and contest!

Just putting up some of the backlog of minis now, for anyone stumbling onto this! Will add new stuff as it comes...

I've converted. Kicking off with the Apothecary Biologis I painted for my custom chapter!
