Hair, skin, blade (mascara?) starting to come together on Rumi! The colors and details on these characters really do it for me, every bit of progress is very satisfying 🙏

Figuring out what is and is not yellow (and doing some artistic interpretation) on these pants and shoes was quite challenging. Now about a thousand layers of yellow to hammer in the saturation.

Painting minis a with a kitten, step one: search the floor for all the things on the hobby desk that inexplicably grew legs since the last paint session

As I was painting yesterday, it felt like the default print of these lost a lot of detail (my printer possibly), and I was thinking about sizing them up.
When I noticed Mira's blade had broken off, I took it as a sign.
So here are new prints, sized at 150%.

Look at that, a finished mini!
This is Hans, the killer from the first "tape" you get with the Final Girl starter box, Camp Happy Trails.
The initial girls are still in progress, but overall very cool minis. From @vanrydergames.bsky.social

Working on some demon hunter skin. Taking my time here because painting skin is fun and to try and infuse some subtle pink and purple tones since that palette seems to suffuse the movie.

My summer (fall?) blood bowl league started yesterday! I didn't play my first match because of travel, but that's ok because my team wasn't ready. Today I finished base coats and got everyone on bases. They aren't done, but they are ready for the first match.

Drew this logo for my Squig blood bowl team, the Murder Meatballs, but the software our league uses doesn't allow images without a transparent background. Womp womp.
Maybe I'll learn how to do that in some image editing software eventually.

While I reserve the right to add further embellishments at some point, I'm happy calling this DM screen from Fate's End miniatures done!
Fun doing a big piece of practical terrain like this, hopefully it will preside over many adventures.

Mostly quick bursts of hobby time lately, so I've been working on quicker things that will be good for d&d: guards, chests, tables.
Here is some quick skin for the warrior from hero quest.

We have a crested gecko now! Remember when I said the hermit crab was a slippery slope? No? Well he we are.
He's very handsome though 😍

More finished stuff that I never got around to posting! Goose woman!
I've been trying to do more minis to a satisfactory level instead of "absolute pinnacle of my ability every time", and it's a good thing!
Still wondering if the egg should be gold though.

Today was the day I finally setup the lightbox in my new hobby space. I'd been putting it off mostly because I had to cat proof the wires.
Here are some "final" photos of the teeny sororitas tank I finished a while ago.

Discovered that one of my printed squigs lost a foot while being shuffled around the house, after searching all the likely places I think it's going to have to be given up as lost.
The solution? Try sculpting a wooden peg leg replacement of course!

How hard could it be to paint a bright, smooth, saturated yellow you say? Well I'm still working on it, so I'll let you know. Anyway, a continuous happy pride to you.

It's my birthday today, so to celebrate I took the day off to spend painting minis. Working on this set of pan pride squigs for blood bowl. Didn't make it as far as I'd hoped today because of some gap filling and re-priming, but happy how they are coming along!

Got some airbrushing done today.
Something different with these windows, creating the OSL with the airbrush, still need to black out the panes, but they look neat already.
Also squigs for blood bowl primed alongside some generic guards for d&d shenanigans.

Trying to squeeze in more quick projects between involved projects! Grabbed this goose lady out of the pile while searching for minis for my kid. Birds!

Work continues on the DM screen. The most exciting part of this work is my daughter did the base coat on all the barrels! It's not her first time painting something, but it's the first time we're "collaborating" on something, which is a fun frontier.

Not been doing a good job posting here because my brain has been having a wonk, but my child and her friend are real excited to try d&d suddenly!
Naturally, I've taken this a bit far and now I'm painting a 3d print DM screen. Primed!
