5 hyena miniatures from Byzantur Minis that I painted this weekend.
5 brown hyena miniatures painted and standing against a plain white background. The hyena are in various poses looking threatening and with snarling or snapping mouths and look like they are in the middle of stalking prey.

I’ve been painting a bunch of stuff for a weird little miniatures game called Quar lately and it’s been a lot of fun. #paintingminiatures
Some painted miniatures from the game Quar. Quar are sort of alternate WW1 alien ant eater people? These are Coftyran army painted in blue uniforms and standing in front of a tank. Both Coftyran tanks I painted blue sitting on a little green hill. Gwynt soldiers from Quar standing in a sandbagged trench. They’re dressed in red uniforms and wearing black Napoleonic style bicorne hats. A Gwynt tank that’s just a big box of tank tracks with a canon poking out the front. There is a smaller driver popping out of a hatch at the top.

Merry Ice Cream Bunny Everyone!🐰🎅
The Ice Cream Bunny driving an old-fashions firetruck overloaded with children. The firetruck is driving down a dirt road in the woods. It's a shot from the Pirate's World movie Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny, which is terrible.

Painting again after months of taking a break from it. Feels good to have brushes in my hand again.
A batch of nearly finished roman skelton minis painted with rusty bronze shields and wooden bows. They’re on a messy hobby table full of brushes, paint pots and splotches.

FIDDLESPRUNG!!
A terrifying clown holding Christmas presents in front of a sign that says 'Whizzo's Wonderland' in what appears to be a messy circus tent. It's a still from a very old Kansas City local television special "Christmas Circus with Whizzo the Clown".

I love her so much. 😭
The very small character Charlotta from GranBlue Fantasy: Relink. She's in a frilly blue and white dress and carries a sword and wears a little crown. She's standing on the deck of an airship with other characters from the game in the background.

🎃📽️ Day 30 - The Changeling (1980) - After all the junk I've been watching this month I wanted to watch something I actually like again. This is one of my favourite haunted house movies. It's slow and quiet and takes it's time but I think it works really well. #horrorween
Movie poster for The Changeling. At the top it says "How did you die, Joseph? Did you die in this house? Why do you remain?" with an illustration of an empty old wheelchair covered in cobwebs that casts a shadow that shows the silhouette of a child sitting in it.

🎃📽️Day 29 - The Uncanny (1977) directed by Denis Héroux. A British-Canadian horror anthology film starring Peter Cushing pitching stories about evil cats to his publisher. There are 4 stories in this: Montreal 1977, London 1912, Quebec 1975 and Hollywood 1936. The cats are cute. 🐱 #horrorween

🎃📽️ Day 28 - Brooklyn 45. Directed by Ted Geoghegan. Not your typical horror movie. The entire thing takes place in one room of an apartment as friends confront events past and present while performing a séance. #horrorween
Poster for the movie Brooklyn 45. The title is written in red on the lower half with an apartment window facing towards us. All the chracters of the film standing looking at the viewer as a huge spectral hand is grasping at the entire group.
