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).
I’m freaking out a bit - my favorite Warhammer faction is getting their first novel by my favorite sci-fi author.

I couldn’t have joined the hobby at a better time 🥹

Happy birthday, Robyn 🥳Your art is an inspiration 🥳 I hope you get some cake 🥳
A beautiful breakdown of the stylistic approaches to printing minis 🥹
Miniatures and models: Simulation, Mimicry or Abstraction or a combination of the 3.
When you paint miniatures/terrain you are making decisions as to style even if you are not aware of them. These 3 techniques are IMO the most common. Gonna Waffle.

When doing gunpla, how do you decide when you’re done cleaning mold lines? I feel like I either under- or over-scrape them 90% of the time.
You’re not alone. Sprained my thumb once while changing a diaper, and threw my back out “drinking milk too hard,” as my daughter will tell anyone who will listen 🫠
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. 🪾
Ok, but this looks amazing!?!!
Unfortunately, it is not at all a happy resolution. While he didn't shoot the bear, he did force someone else to (because the bear was mortally injured during its capture). He didn't care about the bear at all, he was just thinking about his reputation.

When you run into your friend at hobby shop after telling them you wouldn't buy any more minis until you finished painting your pile of shame
This sword is quite the sight! 20/20 on the details.
And you know 15 years from now he's going to complain about his chronic back problems, "That came out of nowhere."
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!

I’m a grown man. I can deadlift 300lbs. I can give my wife a piggy back ride for 3 blocks without breaking a sweat. I’m the guy you call when you need to move your furniture.

And yet.

I hurt my hand airbrushing little dinosaurs too much. Defeated by high quality German engineering and plastic.🥺 👨‍🎨

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.

The same thing happened to me last night while painting a Tau Pathfinder. I knocked their head off like four times before I finally pinned it. 🫠

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.
