This really shouldn't be a controversial take considering we live in the United States of America but some of y'all seem to have forgotten. And so, here we are, once again...

The sprite gang from the Mythwinds boardgame is finally all painted up and ready for playtime.

Might try to go to the park and get some themed shots but just happy with how they all turned out so didn't want to wait.

A little side project for a friend I was finally able to wrap up. Repair of a couple pieces from the Harry Potter Wizard's Chess set.

Had to resculpt some of the raised pattern but the hardest part was definitely trying to match the finish on the original.

Wanted to share my paintjob of the Swamp Sprite as one of the #minifigures from the #Mythwind #boardgame. Tried to capture a bit of a more fun, playful style with these guys as a refreshing change of pace from my normal work.

Excuse me, Mr. Trump and Associated Bootlickers Inc. I was promised that I would be shipped off to a wellness-farm.

Well... I am still waiting. Why am I still paying rent?

Just came in today! Excited to dive into #ApotheBakery that we backed from #kickstarter. This one was actually a bit of a surprise at how quick they got this to us compared to several others we are waiting on, so props to them and their logistics team.

And last but not least, the Necromancer playable character, Hoxir, #miniature from the #Euthia #boardgame.

This set was the first time experimenting with #ArmyPainter speed paints as well as some colored metalics, so a little bit of a learning curve with a new product.
