Getting some wet blending practice while painting some WH underworlds ghosts! They’re much more fun and interesting than I thought at first glance

After spilling my second bottle in a week, I 3d printed a neat little stand with an extra wide base. It’s been a lifesaver.

Finished just under the wire - got a model done in time to celebrate Orctober!

He was a blast to paint, but was also a reminder that resin models are a pain. They’re just too fragile (hence the monkey’s little capped arm).

Inspired by the models I got for my birthday, I knew that I need to get through some of my painting backlog. So I got back to work on these lizard guys!

But then, I get a call from a friend. At 10:30pm! To check the mail.

And now my backlog is even bigger 😂

I can’t wait to get this one painted!

Getting in the October spirit by assembling this creepy forest witch before work. 🪾🧙‍♀️

Also: I got these two incredibly cozy sweaters ☕️

Opened my birthday presents a bit early - and my wife and kids clearly love me - and spooky haunted forests. 🪾

Had my first marathon airbrushing session last night (~2 hours) base-coating a squad of Dino Dudes.

While I had to go back and forth a bunch to get the patterning right, I'm super pleased with how it turned out!

Went to my first mini painting competition tonight. It was a speed-paint (2 hours) comp where you get a random mini and 6 random paints.

I got a great palate, and I won first place! I also walked away with my first hob, which is a win on its own.

Shout out to The Nerd Store, my FLGS

Been quietly hobbying through my anxiety these last weeks. I’m currently working on my very first Warhammer army. Not completely set on a recipe nor the finer details yet, but I’m loving the scheme in general.

I’m happy to be celebrating my mini-painting anniversary this week! I couldn’t have been shown to a more fun and joyful hobby.

To celebrate, here’s my first mini, along with a few I’m very proud of from along the way!

In going out of town for a week, so I tried to power-hobby this morning.

Got a full crew of kobolds painted up! (Details will have to wait until next time 👨‍🎨)

Painted my first resin mini, and I gotta say, it rocked.

I’m coming up on 1 year of painting, and I can hardly believe how much my skill has grown. I can’t wait to see what next year brings!

Enjoy Finnegan - because he had a fin, and now he has a fin again 🥁

With a D&D campaign I’m DMing coming up, I realized I didn’t have any big beefy orcs — an error demanding correction!

This sculpt was a blast. The clothing especially was awesome to work with. And now I’ve got a nice big bad for the first few sessions.

Painted a miniature few palate cleansers over the weekend, beefing up my baddie backlog for DnD.

All this painting has me jonesing for my our next session!

Had a blast painting this guy. My daughter specifically picked him for her upcoming #dnd campaign.

Talking my mind off… everything… by working on my first army. I’m really excited how the base coat is looking! I was a little nervous at first, but the yellow is great.

Had a nice relaxing night prepping my tau for paint. Still not sure what colors they’re going to be, but it’s nice to start the painting portion of the hobby!

Wrapped up another mini - this one a Harengon (bunny person). I’m especially psyched with how their pauldrons turned out - my first successful non-metallic metal!

This one had a loooong ugly phase. I’m glad I pushed through, because this is one excellent hero.

I’m painting minis for the characters in my daughter’s D&D game, and decided to take the chance to give speed paints an honest go. So long as I prime them properly, I feel like the results are excellent - especially for the time investment (35-45 minutes each)!

Just finished this goblin. They’re clearly up to no good, but at least they’re having fun!

Took the day off to hang out with my brother and paint minis!

This is Bronco - a Dragonborn paladin. He’s my first time trying a blend with loaded brush. While imperfect, I’m psyched with how he turned out!

I’m trying to fill out my baddie roster by painting one a month. This month is Valentino, the Valentine’s Day Vampire! Finished with a few days to spare 💕

Tried my hand at a 1-hour challenge to try and clear out my mini backlog during my lunch break. Very happy with how it turned out!
