Physically, psychologically exhausted, with this brown dirt rock.
The final of the #fenrisianwolves for now, anyway. This one is based off the one on the box. & I could have tried harder to make it look more like it, but I also wanted it to match the rest.

The 4th wolf. My favorite. I just love how the shading turned out. & I love, a beast that blends in with its surroundings.

I do worry about stability/fragility with that contact point, but alas.

Wolf number three. This one was loosely based on Balto. A movie I entirely forgot about before he brought it up as an option. Though we didn't do the eyebrows. Still happy though.

Here's a few photos taken during a short hike I took with a friend of mine a few weeks ago.

Another, of the #fenrisianwolves
I did the eyes, months, & teeth on all of the wolves

I don't have too much to say about this one.

Here is the first of the #fenrisianwolves my partner & I painted. This one was mostly him, with my coaching. The base was a group effort, & I'm glad we changed the paint scheme of it. The snow was fun & easy.

This is actually the first dwarf I've painted.

For this one, I recycled the color palette from the giants I did a while ago. I also experimented with how I paint metal, which I'm quite pleased with.

I went to paint pottery for my annual aging celebration. Somebody made these for a class, & never picked them up, so I got to paint them, I'm excited to see how they look when fired.

The Ice Mephit. My favorite out of the bunch. I'm kind of disappointed. I couldn't get a good photo of his color. It's the perfect ice blue color.

They were really fun for an afternoon.

The Steam Mephit. Second to last. Truthfully, I'm not sure I use the correct model for this one, but they weren't exactly labeled. Though in hindsight, it's making a lot more sense why fire never made sense.

My dust Mephit. Actually a bit harder than you'd expect. When you don't have the perfect dust brown. Not my favorite, but I still like him. The can hang

The mephit, I spent the most time on. Honestly, I kept going back and forth on whether I liked it. Though people seem to like it, so it lives on.

This starts the mephits.

Well, when I was working on these. I was working from one from a reference picture, with something that looked like this. Though, apparently fire isn't actually an option.

Play testing a glass pen, I just received from my bestie. It's my first time ever using a glass pen, it's really cool.

Considering I haven't practiced hatching in years, I'm fairly happy with this.

Though, I have no idea how I got covered in ink.

I forgot what this thing was called but it's super cool. Though I know, it is supposed to be a frog monster, considering the tail... Tadpole monster.

Tbh, I think the crotch skull, was a little unnecessary, but ehhh....

The other selune worshiper. Same color palette, different placement. I definitely really like the color palette.

So if you replace the green with more red, then it's accurate, lol.

The new Vamir. I'm really happy, even after all the work it took to get it paint ready. I love the glitter paint. It's just too pretty. I ended up making a set of moon worshipers. So, this mini has a use after the campaign is over.

Here is the other naiad, I like that better than Kelpie, and I've been given no suggestions. Honestly I like this one more. Just something about it.
I'm happy, I went with the green tones on them.

This is the first, of what the box called kelpies. Not exactly what I'd think of. Few of the stories, I've read mentioned them appearing as women. Though, I'm no authority.

Any ideas what I should call them?

This set took a lot more prep, then I would have preferred, but it was worth it. I've painted this miniature set before, many years ago, & while I don't have them to compare. I just wanted to do it better. & I think, I did.

I really don't understand how I get in so many miscommunications. Like really? I don't know how I could be any clearer a majority of the time. It's really starting to stress me out.

It was love at first sight, but pain from first contact.
First I broke her arm off, when I was cleaning up mold lines. Glued it back together, and broke it again. Then lost the arm entirely, down the drain, literally.

Worth it,a favorite
