I love scatter items and objective markers! It's so fast and fun to paint. Nice work with this!

Always nice to see more people sharing what they make!

I look forward to seeing how the board evolves!

The mini is a Pathfinder Kobold 3d print from the ongoing MyMiniFactory painting contest.

Thank you all for the wonderful advice! I am officially over my art-block! The dark lining helps me see the areas where I need to texture or shift the values!

Another #WIP on my #Pathfinder Kobold Mini!

I could really use some feedback on this piece. I'm competition painting and trying to figure out how to push this model to the next level. Currently feeling a bit stuck.

Thank you! I have a basic understanding of the technology involved. I'm more curious about the structure and presentation of a stream.

My work tends to be slow, how do you keep people interested? How do you best engage with your viewers? What kind of assets are most needed for starting?

I've been thinking about trying streaming my #minipainting sessions, maybe some chats, and the occasional game. Does that sound like something interesting to you?

For those of you out there with experience streaming is there anything you think I should know? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Currently #wip on this #Pathfinder Kobold mini!

Still needs lots of work. Over all I'm having a fun time with the project, even though I keep fighting with the background and the lava.

Just primed my first display plinth. Not perfect but I'm quite happy with the result.

I haven't painted in a competition in years, wish me luck! 🤞

I enjoy making unique bases for my #miniatures

Each one feels like crafting a small diorama
