2nd Tikonov Guards Victor. Painted for @mechpainters.org bounty hunt. This was a bitch of a paint scheme to research. There's exactly one image for it, and it's a low res image on the Pillager Alpha Strike card. Not fun :P #battletech #miniatures #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

More photos coming later, but here's a quick look at another classic Space Marine model, one of the earliest artificer armor miniatures. Note that this one is slightly damaged or miscast; the bolter barrel is too short. #Warhammer40k #Nerdlings

A rear view of the early Space Marine, with the details of the backpack, more orange cables, a blue bottle, and a green "motion scanner."

As promised, the best face I've yet painted. A very early Space Marine, from the second batch ever sculpted. #Nerdlings #Oldhammer

A classic Space Marine in Blood Angels red, wielding a plasma gun. He has a rugged Caucasian face with black hair. The plasma gun is bright silver with blue coils on top. A small skull charm hangs from his left wrist.

A right-side view of the Blood Angels Space Marine, showing off the prominent chapter symbol on his pauldron. His ludicrous hair style is visible here: a flattop crew cut with a quiff in front and a braided ponytail.

A rear view of the Space Marine, showing the details of his backpack.

A left-side view of the Blood Angel Space Marine, giving a good look at the fighting knife on his hip and his left pauldron, with a sculpted goat skull and rivets.

still playing catchup, since my hospitalization, on work & bills, but got a power bill ($250) catfood bag ($120), so gonna open a couple slots for light work, examples below & 411 in the ALT PM me for more ko-fi.com/bishopsbeerf... www.patreon.com/c/BishopStei... www.deviantart.com/bishopsteiner

an example of the $125-150 price point, varies a bit based on complexity, and familiarity of the IP, design language, etc. For instance it takes more time for me to do a Pacific Rim design than a Battletech one, due to my overall familiarity with Battletech. So this would be a 150$ example.

and this is an example of a basic B&W $75 speed sketch, quality is a bit variable as it's what I can knock out in 2-3 hours. A more polished B&W chibi by contrast would be $100.

Over the past 2.5 years, ever since the death of my mother, I've been dealing with a lot of shit. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, but I'm still going to need some help to make it through the next 2-3 months. Here's a few ways you can help, if you're able: (And shares welcome)

Mini of the month - John Blanche Entry 17 by @mxhollyclara.bsky.social We Are Legion #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

A Skeleton Horde marches across a dark and foreboding countryside. A menacing, twisted tree looms in the background. The skeletons recede into the distance, like there is no end to their numbers. A very “Heavy Metal” banner of a skull with a rose in its mouth is being carried by one of the skeletons. The banner reads “We are Legion”. It’s more than apt, because those of us who have been inspired by John Blanche are Legion - and are always grateful for what he gave us.

House Imarra Urbanmech. Because even when you're an elite warrior from a prestigous unit in the Chancellors favour, you can still get stuck with a shitty 'mech. Very pleased with my freehand insignia on this one. Didn't think I could make the Capellan logo look that good. #battletech #nerdlings

I think a lot about details, the designs they come from, shared elements they add to, how to make(or re-make) them Purity seal wraps from games and old templar art, pteruges made with chains, mechanical sub-arms to help wield weapons, fore-arm shields for decorative extra armour

You know, if I was running a TV company and my showrunner dropped a huge cliffhanger, then told me he had no idea where the show was going, and hadn't written anything a year later, I'd can his arse too. Go find somebody with a 3 year plan, nail some actors down and give us a soft reboot. #Doctorwho
