A very stupid bit of art for the Halloween special episode of my ongoing #battletech rpg, featuring the main NPCs as the Scooby Gang. Had loads of fun with the poses and costumes even if doing the lighting and getting this many people in one image was hell lol lmao

Finally finished painting my Allopex (and second ever #ageofsigmar model). Really loved building and painting this, it’s such a fantastic sculpt! Can’t wait to move onto the rest of my spearhead!

Was practicing skirts and shirts and it turned into a Whole Thing.

A #Battletech related illustration of a Loki agent clearing a Lyran facility with gusto.

Getting better at folds and I liked leaving the white border as a stylistic choice. Had fun with this!

“What’re you hiding under a pullover that size?”

Did some more folds & shading practice, had a bit of fun with it and made sort of a sequel to this one. Yeah the pistol is in an odd place, yeah I got lazy with the background.

Having fun & learning tho, and that’s the main thing!

Got a block with the Norse fantasy stuff so did some clothing shading/texture practice with Esther and turned it into something goofy

"Never forget child that I am part of you and you part of me," the beast assured her, its voice echoing through her mind, "and in that you will never truly be alone."

Thought I'd do something different with this one while practicing anatomy (not sorry for posting feet on main)

A woman in the black cloak of a Seidkona peers into a conjured mist. Human artillery, they were force multipliers for both sides of the Schism. This one has a brooch bearing the symbol of Lunn’s armies. Despite progress in equality, centuries would pass before men were able to join

Painted up some #StarWars Legion stormtroopers in time for my Saga Edition game last night and it turns out I suck at painting white lol. Look fine on the table though and it’s amazing how much basing can tie a model together, even if the paint job is butts xD

The first #Battletech miniature I’ve painted in ages and it’s a Wasp for my pirates!

Hroar and Ottar, Hearthkarls (warrior priests, golden eyes showing souls bound to Lunn) sworn guardians to Valdis, in post-battle levity. Clad in expensive lamellar inlaid with magic-dampening electrum, Hearthkarls of all denominations were used as heavy infantry during the Schism.

-Valdis, 5th avatar of Lunn (Goddess of life, death, and natural cycles; ‘The Wolf that Waits’; ‘The First’) in 2267 S.F. during the Hjartaborg Schism-

Revisited my fantasy setting for this one and I’m really proud of how it came out, especially with the lighting and the pose :D

“Captains McCarthy-Casey (he/him, 6’0”) and Kramer (she/her, 5’3”) show off their unit’s duty uniform (skirt variant) for Vogue Eridani, S/S 3062.”

Did this as a fun follow-up to the previous piece with my #battletech rpg merc unit. Focusing more on lines and shadows than fancy rendering.

My first Age of Sigmar model and it’s a wet elf and his weird dog.

It was an adventure in painting and on the way I learned how interesting (and tragic) the Idoneth are as a faction!
