Final - Skipper, Jump-Rope Artist Demon for the Carnival of Chaos. This little guy was lots of fun to work on. Playing in a puddle of goo and old posters. The Carnival's not stopping! #mordheim #nurgle #miniatures #art #miniaturepainting #minipainting #fantasy #warhammer #carnival #chaos #nerdlings

A fun little guy who likes to jump rope. A nurgle Plague Demon jump roping with his own innards in a pile of goo and tattered posters. I hope people like this, this model was a lot of work, and in addition to that I designed my own posters to use with this mordheim warband. Up next is something a little more explosive.

Today's post is slightly different. One of the things I love in wargaming is the community around kitbashing, and the creativity you get. So here's my derelict ravager model I kitbashed. You might see more like him soon. #kitbash #grimdark #gnarus28 #warhammer #miniatures #minipainting #scifi

During one of the Derelict's transits to real space a pocket portal from an experimental portal generator ripped the fabric of space and these aliens poured out. For the denizens of the Derelict they called them Ravagers for their feral and brutal nature. They are aliens with pallid sallow skin, terrifying almost demonic faces, they carry high powered ranged and melee weapons, and are insanely fast. Because of their predatory bodies they tend to hunt and stalk prey individually or as small hunting groups rather than swarm.

All sculpting credit to Manuel_Boria on Patreon and MyMiniFactory, he has some really fun and energetic models. His Carnival of Chaos sculpts inspired me to start a warband and paint some of his models as part of it!

This is a fantastic sculpt by an awesome sculptor named Manuel Boria. He did a Carnival of Chaos warband that really inspired me to finally get into Mordheim. This Plaguebearer is one of his, you can find him at MyMiniFactory or on Patreon @Manuel_Boria. Some of the upcoming sculpts are my own bash.

#WIP Carnival of Chaos Update: Skipper. Got to a pretty good standard last night on stream. I think this little fella is ready for a base! #mordheim #fantasy #warhammer #nurgle #miniatures #miniaturepainting #painting #art #nerdlings #minipainting #carnival

Just a happy little guy who is jumproping, another of my plaguebearers for my carnival of chaos warband. A green plague demon jumproping with his exposed innards. He also has a blue little clown collar around his neck.

#WIP update from last night's stream. More NMM Gold and the skin is in a really good place. Skin really put my skills on the airbrush to the test, trying to get color in the highlight. #fantasy #egyptian #art #display #miniaturepainting #minipainting #miniatures #bust #painting #gold #nmm #airbrush

A painting of a Egyptian woman in a headless unpainted, the skin and golden scarab on her mantle is painted, work in progress continues to move forward.

Well it's been a week and weekend of tough kicks to the shin. This past Saturday I streamed with my new setup and it lasted for an hour before the camera died. So here's what I got. The Lion Mother #egyptian #goddess #fantasy #dnd #miniaturepainting #minipainting #figure #display #wip #bust #skin

Idk man, I hope you guys like this. Thisll be the model I work on, on stream over the next month I guess. I've done some work off stream too. Hope you enjoy, been a fun model so far.

I spent a lot of my life being told the same, but in my professional career, people have worn my art, my designs sit on the sides of buildings. That's somewhere. I bought some of your prints, and they will hang in my office, because they're that good. At the very least it's somewhere.

What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets! I love Vampires, and there's none better than the Count himself. The background painting and about 75% of Dracula were done in Acryla Gouache. #vampire #miniatures #minipainting #display #art #painting #castlevania #fantasy #fanart #halloween #bust

Count Dracula von Tepes from Castlevania. A painted bust of the character mounted on a black wood block with a gouache painting of his castle in the background. A tribute to Vampires, and just in time for October. If you're reading this, this was a love letter to myself, I love Vampires and really wanted to do Dracula at some point, and to have my Dracula turn out this well just feels so good. So thank you, for viewing, I hope you like.

Zip, the Plaguebearer done, only took 10 hours! Excited to start on the rest of the warband, I might even build a display board for them. Also excited to play some Mordheim with him. #mordheim #warhammer #fantasy #nurgle #miniatures #minipainting #art #nerdlings #miniaturepainting #painting

Finished Picture of a plaguebearer - nurgle demon riddled with pustules riding a unicycle, carrying a dagger, with a tongue hanging out of his mouthbelly, he's riding on a city street, with gross green ichor on the ground and the cloud of dust behind him is kicking up discarded tickets

I wanted to make sure that this next #WIP had some significant growth compared to the last one. Purple shadows, electric blue pants, NMM sword galore! Zip, the Plaguebearer for my #mordheim #nurgle #carnival of #chaos warband. #miniatures #minipainting #art #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Disgusting little plague demon named Zip, he's a funky little guy, he's got a disgusting tongue belly, he carries a wicked looking knife and overall looks very sickly.

I use Liquitex Matte Varnish, its not completely ultra-matte, but I used it recently to dull the ever loving shit out of some metallics (pro-acryl silver with a phthalocyanine blue oil wash) I sprayed over and it killed the shine to a point I felt I didn't have to do two coats .

WIP Wednesday

Just totally normal stuff as I use a foil shaded book light to try to guide a shaft of light into the Sister bust for future reference.

Been going round and round on her skin - first pass was too ruddy for a spaceborn nun.

I love my craft/art/work (however you call it), but I hate promoting myself 🫠

Say hi, if you're in the same boat.

Btw, buy my minis, maybe? Or share post? Help.

While working through my backlog I have a new competition project going on, my Carnival of Chaos Mordheim Warband. Here's a happy little Plaguebearer riding a unicycle! Model by Manuel Boria. #mordheim #chaos #nurgle #warhammer #art #miniature #wip #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nerdlings #circus

A happy little circus Plaguebearer riding a unicycle. He holds a dagger as he leads the charge for the circus. This is I think going to be the most fun project I've ever done, a ton of different models up to display quality and they are such fun sculpts too. This guy is one of my favorites and has been a joy to paint this far.

John Wooing it up with a bunch of extra doves on this Holy Shogunate Sniper Priest from Bite the Bullet.

Tricky to paint for camera as I wanted him more shadowed to the front, but am happy how he came out! Feels like he's exploding into violence.

WIP Wednesday!

About 4 hours in.

I don't usually paint GW stuff - my group moved on to Infinity and it's hard to justify a $$$ kit when I have a resin printer. Sometimes I'll find a STL, like this one from Busts Workshop, that scratches an itch.

A bust of a Sister of Battle, crimson and not finished.

Tried to keep her outfit rustic in tone to contrast her vibrant skin tone. Built the fence from some balsa and hemp cord, flowers from Rival Arts.

You're walking the swamp at night, you swing your torch around to follow splashes and this guy leers back at you. River Troll Bust from @printnpaintminiatures Was a fun experiment in OSL. #warhammer #warhammerfantasy #miniatures #minipainting #painting #art #troll #gloomspitegitz #display #fantasy

River Troll bust painted to be lit by a torch. This was on my desk for two days, I painted this up manically. I am laying out the groundwork to complete a lot of old projects so look forward to that if you read the alt text.

In an attempt to clear my painting desk, I'm going to be completing WIPs. Starting with Betty from @bombshellminis.bsky.social Was a fun model to work on, will be getting her a base later. #display #figure #pinup #miniatures #minipainter #art #bust #minipainting #painting #miniature

Finished painted bust of a WW2 pilot officer with aviator jacket and goggles. Was a fun model to work on, if you're reading the alt text, I have too much stuff on my desk and it needs to get finished. This was just the most in progress. Another Goblin coming soon, this time she's a Bombin'.

Another update, very minor #WIP. Trying to fix values in areas right now before moving onto texture details. She is looking better, I've been on a bit of a hiatus, am busy working on my traditional art. #display #figure #bust #miniature #painting #minipainting #bomber #art

A pinup bust miniature of a WW2 air pilot officer, she has orange hair, a green shirt, and a bomber jacket.
