Hey I'm back to painting again.

I have some epic scale cultists I painted to look like dreg gunners from darktide.

And a bit of work on the centaur bloodcrusher I kitbashed.

Warspite, a Shadowsword pattern super-heavy tank, of the Norcaster 4th Heavy Tank Company. Seen here during the liberation of the city of Mortain on Valence's northern continent. During the fighting the tank was credited with the destruction of two War Dogs and four Traitor Knights of various patterns.

Tiny tank! In this case a 3D printed one I picked up via an auction, also have a Baneblade that I really should paint, but want to do something special with it and missing some stuff for it. To my great annoyance.

A real treat to paint, based it on Sonic Sledgehammer's Comet painting steps, which was just a wash and a drybrush and then I picked out some other details. No point spending too much effort on a 6mm sized tank.

The base was my first attempt at using a texture roller. Used filler instead of green stuff or putty, which took a couple of attempts. But even with the final one smearing a little it worked out pretty well. Not to mention cleaning was a breeze since the stuff was water soluble when not dried.

I want to paint more tiny tanks now. Maybe I'll get some Legions Imperialis vehicles at some point. Who knows how well this one is going to square up against those.

I finished my first batch of Imperial Fists for Legion Imperialis. These are a blast to paint. I think these are my favorite bases I've done. I have a second sprue started, and I will finish it tonight. I have to do the little bit of metallic paints and the wash, and they will be ready for basing.

having reviewed the data (owned elemental minis and dd some quick google searches) i have come to conclude that battletech minis are the right scale for games workshop's new epic scale stuff. Does this mean i'm going to get some extra epic scale bases and stick battlemechs on them... quite possibly

More Epic: the animated show fake screenshots because I promised them and my brain would not let go.

Open them up for all that crispy quality and the little Oddyseus faces (istg I love that man).

The semi-rewatch of the s3 finale validated my past self's affection for Lucy Saxon

Every single new who showrunner, RTD included, repeatedly: Check out this character who is a dark mirror of the Doctor! RTD, his brain huge: Yes yes but how about we give them a dark mirror of a companion?

#doctor who #blah blah blah #lava klanka is watching you #if going on a trip with a time lord makes young women detached from their normal lives; desensitized to violence; desperate to impress him #- then what happens if that time lord has malicious intentions and does this specifically to break them? #lucy doesn't have a lot of screentime but it's so clear what's going on with her throughout it #like. even beyond the doctor-companion parallels #the way she loses hope in the future and commits to the “bring on the apocalypse! let us be the hot evil couple!” attitude #despite not actually having the stomach for even witnessing violence up close #as long as she can find comfort/excitement/catharsis in the epic scale of the events #...flash forward a year to the full awareness of the terrible mundanity of evil

#anonymous #oversaturation is real even to me and im a fan #used to be more invested in the wank and the whole community hype part of it #when i first got in it in 2014 (?) #because i love communities and i was dumber and wasted myself more on arguing and whining lol #i try to do less of that now #anyway #i returned now thanks to epic bepo chan crumbs but i catch myself returning to old habits #like getting mad at fucking posts #and im like oh my god.....this shit again. not going back to tha old me #like i see that tidal wave of bullshit #like opening reply section under a popular post and see all the screeching #and woah mama that makes me wanna RUN #and i dont mean just the ''dudebro'' (i dont use that term seriously anymore its crap) part of it #fujo side is not much better #bigger fandom more people more annoying people #it all scales up

Miniature Painting Retrospective (2023)

2023 has been a hell of a year, but it had one upside to it, namely that this was the year I got into miniature painting. The downsides are money spent on plastics and paints and my ever-increasing piles of shame, but what mini lover doesn't deal with that 🤣

I'm a relatively new painter. I began painting in the second quarter of this year, and I haven't exactly done it every day or even every week, though I think I've improved greatly nonetheless. This is a retrospective post with some examples I've painted this year, what I learned, what I'd do better, and goals for the future.

-----------------

April 2023

Despite the many pages of ramblings on my blog, I did not actually get into miniatures because of Warhammer 40K, it was Dark Souls that got me to pull the trigger 😂 I love, love, love Dark Souls, when I realized there was a boardgame and people painted the plastic figures that came with them I had to get me some of that. I've actually posted these before on my DS sideblog, so if you've seen them around somewhere else 'twas I who was responsible, but these are the very first minis I've ever painted.

Siegward of Catarina was painted almost entirely with contrasts and metallics. I wanted to give him the really rusted look like Catarina Armour has in DS3. Solaire was painted similarly, except I didn't really get how to 'paint white' or 'paint yellow' or to use ink to fill in the sunface, so his chest is woefully incomplete. I thought of stripping him to start over, but have since decided against it; what I'll likely do is to get another Solaire and do the better job with that one. It's good to see where you began. Gives perspective.

-----

May 2023

I began properly looking up painting tutorials around this time. Coincidentally, this was the first time I began to really feel like I knew what I was doing 🤣

Eygon of Carim was painted almost entirely with drybrushing, save for the brown cloth, which was my first attempt at wet blending + adding wear and tear and scratches to simulate realism. He was drybrushed with a gunmetal grey then tinted with Black Templar for the majority of his dark armour, then drybrushed with silver to highlight the edges. His shield and mace followed the same procedure, except they were sponged with bronze later.

All of the models so far remain unbased to this day... I am not very good at remembering to base my models

-----

June 2023

Got into 6mm historicals (Anglo-Saxon/Vikings) during this period, which I don't have a picture of as those are currently in a storage box we stashed away for the Christmas holidays (guests staying over 😖).

Had another go at painting an Onion Knight, however, this time of Catarina Armour than Siegward specifically. Siegward has a longer Zweihander and a more detailed look. I wanted to give this version a clean look, and he was painted in a much more traditional style, following the base + shading + highlights + edge highlights method. No contrasts nor drybrushing, though the shield was mildly sponged with black. I'm proud of this one.

-----

July 2023

Got into Warhammer during this period. Had a break from painting as I tried to read and digest WH40K necron lores/novels, then became attracted to some of the full-size models, as well as building an army for Epic Armageddon. Shown above are some 6mm necron warriors, Immortals, Flayed Ones, and pariahs I painted as an example at this time. They are very, very small and very delicate and I love them your honour

I'm especially happy with the Flayed Ones. I'm actually using those to make a small Twice-Dead King diorama atm, I'll get some more made for the actual army. The pariah models have that warscythe design with a hole (?) in the middle but I... don't??? like the hole??? so I just filled them in with milliput and painted them up similarly to glaives instead

I also obtained a larger Dancer of the Boreal Valley model. She is in the pile of shame. I am afraid to begin painting her now that I've been staring at her for so long 😖😖😖

-----

August - September 2023

I............. ghghgghgghggg

The pile grows. At least I gave Orikan his green marble interior design???

Started doing 28mm historicals in early Sep. When it comes to the actual gaming aspect of this hobby, I have played way more historicals than I've ever played Warhammer or the Dark Souls Boardgame; I play SAGA with my sig. other, and he got me into Chain of Command, though I'm playing solely with the models he painted for that one (since he has been in this hobby for many, many more years than I). Here's a berserkr I painted and based up. NMM chainmail and glazed fur detail, the rock/ground based with cork.

-----

September 2023

Still doing historicals. My Viking warlord, rock based with foam, need to add some grass on there or something. Otherwise very very happy with how he turned out. I keep going back and forth between giving him a shield, since I love painting shields, but I also don't want to obscure the main details of his body. All metallic details are NMM.

Note the scabbard and the glint of his sword. I'm not super good at NMM yet, but I can do tiny glints and details like these.

An example of general warriors, huscarls, etc. I have about 50 men in varying states of completion. These are all Victrix models. Every one of those shields are freehanded. They make for very good practice because they're a nice, well-defined flat surface. I'm really proud of those.

-----

October - November 2023

My beloved Tea Space Marine brothers 😂☕ I've posted about those before (x, x, x) - the Arizona Tea dude is not yet done because I actually need to give him a banner and paint up his base, and during December I was too occupied with other creative activities to work on him. They are the first Space Marines I've ever painted and tbh I don't find them the easiest to paint (???) but they're some of the best fun I've had so far!

I want to make a whole series of those, not just of Space Marines or even the Imperium. I might do more porcelain, they're really fun to pose next to tea-things. The teacup Marine was painted a gloss white (after being primed not-white 😨) then freehanded with royal blue, with Retributor Armour being the gold. The Arizona Tea Marine was painted emerald with pink edges, tinted in places with Magos Purple, then freehanded with various shades of plum blossom-esque colours. Still wondering what design his banner ought to be.

-----

That's it for 2023. Next year I want to do the following things.

Finish up the Epic Armageddon necron army, complete with vehicles (300-400 points).

Finish the Dancer of the Boreal Valley statuette (because that's what she is at that scale, she's the biggest model I have, it's part of why I got intimidated lmao).

Get better at NMM.

Apply aforementioned NMM techniques to necrons on the pile of shame that are not painted.

Learn how to airbrush.

Obtain at least 6 points' worth of guys for a SAGA Viking army, then paint them up and base them properly.

Base my minis properly, full stop 🥴

Looking forward to some fun painting sessions next year!!! 💖
