This time, I’m presenting the Wight King, featuring my first attempt at freehand painting on the cloak. Aside from the flask, which didn't turn out well, I’m happy with the rest. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #ageofsigmar #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

A commission from a friend who wanted 5 pink Terminators... Let me introduce you to: Spark, Spicy, OwO, Pew Pew, and Fluffy. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

Today, I’m presenting an Ork painted quickly and simply, without any fancy frills. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #ork #nerdlings

I painted these two Sisters of Silence thinking that, given their gold armor, I’d finish them quickly; unfortunately, the gold looks flat. Not one of my best works, but the cloaks turned out well. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

Today I’m showing you a Herald of Nurgle. The weapon looks a bit too much like a caramel chocolate bar :) Unfortunately, while painting, I dropped and lost the head that was supposed to hold the Nurgling... #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #nurgle #nerdlings

I painted this little Skink for a store painting competition. I remember placing second an unexpected but satisfying result. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #ageofsigmar #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

Today I’m sharing an exercise I did back in the day to better understand where to place the lights. I remember being pleased with the result. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nerdlings #dnd

Today, we’re revisiting Warhammer 40K with Captain Donato. A simple little project, done purely for the joy of painting. Sometimes I like to paint just for the pleasure of it, without using overly complicated techniques. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

It was 2022; three years had passed since I started painting. Although I could manage many techniques quite well, the eyes always remained a problem; after 15 attempts, I gave up and turned the area into a wound. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nerdlings #dnd

I tried using OSL on this Tengu Druid's staff, but the results were disappointing. Only recently, after taking a course, did I figure out more or less how to apply it though it will still take a lot of practice before I can make it look convincing. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nerdlings #dnd

Here, I wanted to experiment by painting primarily with cool colors, trying to create an atmosphere though I only partially succeeded... #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

This time, I’m sharing a small commission I did for a friend. A Genestealer Locust. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

Am I the only one who likes Ogryns? I find them both entertaining and intimidating. I took the liberty of equipping Nork Deddog with the shotgun instead of the knife specified in the instructions. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

After practicing with the previous miniature, I put what I had learned into practice with a commission for three Tritons for a friend. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Two years after I started painting, this was the first miniature where I wanted to push myself a little further, beginning to highlight the most exposed areas. It was a rough effort, but it marked the beginning of my improvement. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Another one of my favorite works. I’d love to redo it someday perhaps using a kit that isn't made of that horrible resin. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #nurgle #nerdlings

First image of 2021, featuring the first non-Warhammer miniature. Over time, I grew bored with GW's poses and subjects, so I started looking around and discovered a new world I had previously overlooked. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Another day, another piece of the collection. This time, a simple Callidus Assassin. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity #nerdlings

I like Nurgle's philosophy: an eternal cycle of death and rebirth devoid of pain and filled only with joy. In my personal opinion, his models are among the most beautiful. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #ageofsigmar #warhammercommunity #nurgle #nerdlings

I have almost finished showing the photos from my first year of painting; soon there will be some small but significant improvements. I tried an OSL effect using dry brushing on this miniature, and it turned out surprisingly well. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity

Thanks as always for your support. Today I’m sharing a Nurgle Myphitic Blight-hauler another piece painted back in 2020. I still feel a certain aversion to weathering finished models to make them look more realistic. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity

I enjoy sharing my journey as a miniature painter, and that is thanks to you all. I want to show you an Astra Militarum Commissar. I was happy with how the uniform turned out, even though the white looks terrible :) #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity

I admit I was a bit apprehensive about sharing my painting work at first, but I’ve been amazed by the Bluesky community. Today I’m sharing my first large-scale miniature: a Tyranid Hivelord. It was a lot of fun painting it. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity

Thank you so much for the warm welcome on my first post :) I’m continuing my showcase with one of my first commissions for a friend: five old Chaos Space Marine Possessed models, each painted to represent a different Chaos god. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity

Hi everyone, first post on Bluesky. I took up this hobby back in 2019, and I’ll gradually be sharing my work starting with this Vindicare Assassin. Enjoy:) #miniature #miniaturepainting #warhammer40K #warhammercommunity
