Remember!

Drybrushing isn't cheating
Contrast/speedpaints aren't cheating
Airbrush isn't cheating

Use whatever practical tools you have on your desk to make your miniatures look great!

The real value is in the fact you've made some art yourself. No machine can ever replace your own creativity.

The Rakke is probably my fave of the zeoforms, I think. Here's a great painting guide from Julian Miniatures:

I could nudge the camera angle or trim the photo just a little differently, but honestly, I don't mind the reminder that he's actually on a base! The US Infantry from Marcher: Empires at War are cracking little figures from @gdttgames.bsky.social

I picked up the Worms Advent Calendar for the boy. I guess I'm stuck painting all these little charmers now.

It's hard being a Dad. ☺️
