two more built

First mini built, Yes its in two parts so it'll be easier to paint the inside of the cloak

Next painting project has arrived

Well I tested out something with some mini's from a DnD boardgame I have. learnt a bit from it.

and i'll just add this shot too

I managed to treat myself yesterday and order this

last of my mini's have been zenithal primed and ready for paint

So. last of the colour done. just need to base them

well these are turning out better than i though.

Just attempted my first try and Zenithal priming. these started as black primed and got hit with white from a cheap airbrush

So. The shelve I had worked for storing my paints but access was a bit awkward so found a rack for them instead

so im now a fan of the white i used here so i might paint over it.

and the wings done. tried my hand at blending a little

First colour added.

I wasn't 100% happy with the shelves. after checking I can get 4/5 rows of paint on each shelf. I took the top shelf off and moved the middle one up. Used so odd bits of wood to raise the back row of the bottom shelf so i can work out how much of a step up i want for each row.

got the shading done

well i now have my paints stored on shelves. something better than the top of my wet pallet to keep my brushes.

Well primed two mini's ready to do some painting. first time I've primed them one the sprue, and think it will be the last time as well

just realised I've not posting in a while. I should of mention the painting is on a break. I'm organising my room so i can have a second smaller desk for just painting. But i do know whats next on the list of stuff to paint, Vespid Stingwings

Just need to run some black around the rims so they are at a stage i'd be happy to use. for now they have been bluetac'd to a bit of wood till i can actually get somewhere to put them

well just the basing to do but their done.

only one photo of the last three to be painted. was planing to get three colours done but the cat informed me its gone 1am lol

first two colours added. black and brown.

Prepping for the next batch. might break into two batches but looking forward to using the new paints and drybrushes

Oh and the paint and brushes i picked up

one one of those very rare days where i went out and had to deal with people, But some paints and drybrushes have been obtained and had the nearly a foot long mop cut off the top of my head. Something about a fresh cut feels good

Oh look, an Earth Like. #EliteDangerous

and some more done, just need to paint the bases

So. Blacks, Browns, Metal and Reds added so far. but that is all for tonight. Arthritis is starting to hurt now

and hit with the drybrush. now where the light would hit in real life its highlighted for me to work with

well managed to get some minis Primed in black, later i'll get them drybrushed with a white so they will be zenithhaled and readyfor paints. really thinking about getting a cheap airbrush kit for just priming now

so. i have to say. what sold me on trying bluesky was the fact it has its own version of Tweetdeck and its still free. makes keeping track of Friends and people i want to follow much easier. if you didnt know about it then go give it a try.. deck.blue

Last package has arrived medium was mixed up and the citadel paints have been put into dropper bottles

So first half of my order and shown up. Gotta say that case looks better than a toolbox for the paints. some empty bottles to transfer my citadel paints into and some matt medium

convo i had today with a friend. Friend: what you ben up to today? Me: order more mini painting stuff. Friend: Oh, anything interesting Me: Balls

Well. more stuff ordered for painting. just a can of primer and storage stuff. but it will be way better than the toolbox im currently using

So. first post. it's going to be some picture. They might give you some insight to what my posts might be like
