First hobby completion of the new year is actually something of mine rather than the usual commission projects, makes a change. Tamiya triceratops, a really old sculpt from back before they used 3d to sculpt their animals. #dinosaur #Jurassicpark

As a full time painter I really don't abide by holiday breaks, but I do break out the personal stuff to mess around with, like this tamiya triceratops display I'm working on. I'm recording the basing though as it may interest some people #dinosaurs

PaintSlam goes into a new year with #PaintSlam25!

The website at paintslam.com has been updated for the new year with new downloads, and I've attached them here for you too. Including a png logo in case you want to put it on your work when you post it!

Burrows and Badgers miniatures from Oathsworn minis. Loads of fun to paint, they don't have that nagging feeling you should be doing it a 'certain way' like gw minis do.

Finally got a photo set up that gives half decent results. Just in time to capture the result of a 2 ish hour exercise in getting a strong look without spending hours on refinement and detail, those I can always add later. #warhammer #skeleton #deathrattle

An actual recent (as in a day or so ago, not the usual 'several months ago because I forgot') finished commission of a Deathwatch Killteam, came out pretty well!

A selection of space marine heads painted up for a Deathwatch commission, which at the time of posting is undergoing the final few touches (should be hitting the photobooth tomorrow at some point) #warhammer40k #deathwatch

Chaos space marine Master of Possession I finished not that long ago. I never seem to link possession with him taking over other people, so the head canon for him is just a dude that collects stuff, like fire and skulls #warhammer40k #chaos #spacemarine

In case it wasn't clear what kind of hobby gremlin I am, I'm,amongst other things, trying to learn 3d modelling at the moment. So far I'm quite far along with a bug mech kind of thing, and started a sci-fi vehicle last night as a little project I can tinker with when I run into problems on the bug.

Yet again trying to catch up with posting on bluesky, and there's a fair bit to post. Illuminor Szeras was one I really enjoyed! Especially playing around with the green power blade. #necron #nmm #miniaturepainting

Joan of Arc from Infinity Panoceania. Tricky to paint because she's really tiny, even for a wargaming figure. #infinity #corvusbelli

I am not built for hot weather, but I fought through and finished Lhykhis 🤣 #warhammer40k #aeldari #eldar

Here's some Horus Heresy goodness for a Tuesday afternoon, some Veltaris Storm Section I painted up for Siege Studios a couple of months ago. The scheme is to tie-in a solar auxilia force with a blood angels army, and quite honestly they look good in red. #horusheresy #warhammer30k #warhammer

Another part of catching up with the backlog, an Aeldari war walker that was done a few weeks ago. Base was made with some old air dry clay that I'd rolled out flat and kept, ready to break sections off for situations like this.

Just finished up Maugan Ra, the harvester of souls himself! #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #aeldari

Built up a bit of a backlog of stuff I've been working on, but we'll start with old school Eldrad Ulthran. Mixed the scheme with bits I liked from both the original model and the newer version, which seemed to work quite well! #warhammer #aeldari #eldar #40k

Working on the camo for some Aeldari Rangers at the moment, not looking too bad, needs a bit of tidying up before shades and highlights go on though. #warhammer40k #aeldari

I try to paint and sell stuff on eBay as much as time allows, but I never seem to get a handle on what sells because I don't game. However,I know Aeldari are, to quote Mugato 'So hot right now'. So to fund some of the newer kits I can paint/sell, I'll have to start with some quite old stuff #aeldari

I set up a better photo area on a bookshelf near the painting desk a couple of days ago, and whilst I've never been the best photographer and dislike taking photos with a fairly intense passion, the results so far aren't too bad, although the light from the top needs to be brighter I think.

Did a little turnaround of the Contemptor Dreadnought as the last thing for this year

This needs to be shared for UK folks.
Today, the UK government announced a proposal to change copyright law - for the benefit of AI companies - that would cause huge, irreversible harm to creators.
