Decided to go with a more olive tone in the orc skin, prefer it to the richer green colour. Now to do this another 30 times #miniatures #paintingminiatures #orktober

Starting to work on the next model for my marines. Given librarians are meant to be blue I just get to switch the primary and secondary colours in my scheme #miniatures #paintingminiatures #40k #spacemarines

So didn’t get much of my own modelling done this weekend, but I did help out my daughter with her Lego city and made a stage for a group to perform on #modelling #lego

First league game of the season played. My Tomb Kings vs Goblins. Won 3-1 and got 3 casualties for 2 bonus points. Got tackle on blitzer (dodge on goblins was annoying and lizards next). And rolled 2 randoms on skeletons, getting shadowing both times 😭 #bloodbowl

First pass of blending by done and the jump in quality is huge. Just need to decide now how much work to out into it before I consider it done #miniatures #paintingminiatures

Following on from my lesson, I have sketched out the basic colours and placements of highlights for a model prior to blending, trying to decide if the pink needs to go lighter, but generally happy. #miniatures #paintingminiatures

Took my first ever painting class yesterday with Aaron Clark (AC Miniatures) at the Cryptic Cabin. Lesson covered blending and really happy with the result. Would strongly recommend taking a class with him if possible #paintingminiatures #miniatures

Inspired by James acaster’s perfect sound whatever where he claims the best year of music was 2016, I am inspired to do my own deep dive. Do I prove to myself that the 80’s wasn’t all horrible commercial crap, or do I see what was best when my first born was born (2019)?

The display board is now all flocked up. Need to paint up the columns and totems, then can start adding foliage and water effects. #bloodbowl #terrain #miniatures

Making progress on the display for my monkey blood bowl team. Stopped getting mentally blocked about how the foliage was going to work by reminding myself everything under the trees needed to make sense first. Assembling it out of the cabinet for now for easier access. #bloodbowl #terrain

I swear I did the same steps for the test model (left) as the second batch (right) but for some reason have wildly different results

Still working on the various test models for the #puppetswar army. Trick is trying to get the highlights rights before I apply the oil wash #miniatures #paintingminiatures

Test colours down for my puppetswar marine proxy. Not the cleanest paint job, but pretty happy with the colour scheme. #paintingminiatures #miniatures #puppetswar

Marine Chapters Part 7. Posting my history made we want to paint a marine (and marine proxies) again. For a long time I didn’t go pink as I saw that as a chaos marine colour. However decided that’s dumb, so finally gone with it, including first use of Lahmian medium which I already love #miniatures

Been trying out the FDM printer with some puppetswar miniatures, and quite happy with how they look. Currently printing a squad of 5 marines #miniatures #paintingminiatures
