Fun experiment with paint mixing by using a color palette generator on this microbust. It was a bit tough. Learned a lot, had to really push to get satisfying results. #bust #busts #lovecraft #lovecraftian #innsmouth #painting #bustpainting #proacryl #monumenthobbies #anatomylessonminis

A Daredevil I painted for my niece as an early birthday present! I was a bit intimidated to paint him, but I'm happy with the results! #miniatures #daredevil #marvel #marvelsdaredevil #daredevilbornagain #minipainting #miniaturepainting #proacryl #monumenthobbies #anatomylesson #anatomylessonminis

The bard is complete! The freehand on the vest was very fun, and it is the first steel nmm I've done! I'm happy with the textures I've pulled off in this. Print by www.etsy.com/shop/MistaNo... #minipainting #miniaturepainting #bustpainting #bard #progressnotperfection

Gencon 2026 complete! Submitted in bust, diorama, and large; got bronze and two silvers! Got to meet Jon Ninas and thank him for the skills I learned and practiced from watching him. He killed it at the competition! #minipainting #miniaturepainting #bustpainting #gencon2026 #progressnotperfection

The Knight of Gluttony from Witchsong Minis! I was inspired by the game Blasphemous for him. This was a wonderful piece with some difficult NMM to build my skills on. Print from www.etsy.com/shop/MistaNo... #minipainting #miniaturepainting #bustpainting #witchsongminiatures #progressnotperfection

A new bust painted up: The Sorcerer! Really pleased with the gold and the purple glow. It was an intimidating model, but it might be one of my best! #minipainting #miniaturepainting #bustpainting #sorcerer #progressnotperfection

Shivka from Stella Argentis is complete! This was a wonderful piece to learn on and develop creating dynamic contrasts. The complex shape of the paldron was great for NMM practice too. #minis #miniatures #bust #paintingart #progressnotperfection

Working on skin! I think this worked out fairly well, but I could use to boost the highlights a touch more. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #bust #warrior #progressnotperfection

Nyarlathotep is done! Pretty happy with him overall. I wasn't sure he was going to turn out for a bit, but that is part of the creative process. (Don't mind the bad background, I'm still setting up my new photo backdrop). #minipainting #miniaturepainting #lovecraft #gencon #progressnotperfection

@nspband.bsky.social I knew you guys did piping, but professionally?

I don't often look and recognize my growth in painting. In 30 min I focused on this micro bust and wow. Even if you dont think you're good at your craft, share it with those you love and who inspire you. Let yourself be wowed by others and you. Model: @insomniaminiatures Paints: @monument_hobbies

Zach Harris @anatomylesson86.bsky.social · 18/05/2026

Nyarlathotep is back underway! He nears completion. He whispers the things he will do. The chaos he'll unleash... #minipainting #miniaturepainting #nyarlathotep #lovecraftian #progressnotperfection

Pickman's Model micro bust from Insomnia Miniatures. I gave myself a challenge by only using blue, red, yellow, white, and black. I think I handled it pretty well! #minipainting #miniaturepainting #bustpainting #lovecraft #progressnotperfection

Zach Harris @anatomylesson86.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

The Haunter In The Dark, Nyarlathotep, summons horrors beyond human comprehension... He is progressing quickly! Loving the skin tone I went with for him, and Im much happier with the OSL after using some inks. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #lovecraft #eldritchhorror #progressnotperfection

Zach Harris @anatomylesson86.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

Nyarlathotep progresses. Doing OSL from under a model and still trying ambient light is no joke. Neither is NMM bronze. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #lovecraft #gencon2026 #progressnotperfection

Dear lord the way @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social 's brain works is incredible. Such quick wit, such expansive depth of knowledge, astounding memory! Just awesome

Just finished Atsu, the Ghost of Yotei! @erikaishii.bsky.social was a massive inspiration for this after their amazing performance as the character. And a huge shout out to @suckerpunchprod.bsky.social for such an incredible and beautiful game. #minis #miniaturepainting #onryō #ghostofyōtei

Eowyn is well underway! I'm pretty happy with her skin so far, but need to polish her face more. #minipainting #miniaturepainting #lotr #gencon2026 #progressnotperfection

Nemesis is done! She is without a doubt the biggest model I've done, and was a massive learning experience. Model purchased from www.etsy.com/shop/OkesPri... #painting #miniatures #miniaturepainting #hades #progressnotperfection

Nemesis nears completion! I have never done non-metallic metals on this scale before. It was a wonderful and terrifying learning experience.

Zach Harris @anatomylesson86.bsky.social · 12/12/2025

No problem! I buy from them fairly often and they are wonderful

Making some progress on Nemesis! Pretty happy with her skin and the non-metallic metals I've been attempting.

Commission I've been working on for a coworker. Model is cast iron. Lot of sponging and teeny brush strokes. I am working on making the eyes less haunted... #minis #miniatures #minipainting #miniaturepainting #doglover #dogart #proacryl #monumenthobbies #progressnotperfection

The Morrigan is complete! I learned a lot about glazing, creating drama on a bust, and NMM on this one. By no means perfect, but a great learning experience! #minis #minipainting #miniatures #miniaturepainting #bust #bustpainting #celtic #morrigan #proacryl #monumenthobbies #progressnotperfection

Taking a break from Nemesis to work on a bust of the Triple Goddess, Morrigan! Great opportunity to build my non-metallic gold, skin, and hair skills. #minis #miniatures #minipainting #miniaturepainting #bustpainting #celtic #morrigan #raven #proacryl #monumenthobbies #progressnotperfection

My Orktober model! Pretty happy with this one overall. The fire and smoke was a fun challenge, and the skin turned out much better than previous attempts. #minis #minipainting #miniatures #miniaturepainting #ork #orks #orktober #orc #orcs #proacryl #monumenthobbies #progressnotperfection

Finished Ghost of Yotei. @erikaishii.bsky.social was absolutely incredible. Amazing story, beautiful visuals, satisfying gameplay. Truly awesome.

Zach Harris @anatomylesson86.bsky.social · 17/10/2025

I try to be humble about painting. We're all students and there will always be more to know. BUT I'm incredibly happy with this orc. Never tried a flame into smoke effect. Never done skin so well. #minis #minipainting #miniatures #miniaturepainting #orc #orktober #ork #progressnotperfection

Finished this piece! Not the best to photograph with the glass, but that too is a learning experience! So enjoy my big, bald head in the reflection I guess? #minis #miniatures #minipainting #miniaturepainting #warhammer40k #diorama #proacryl #monumenthobbies #baldisbeautiful #progressnotperfection
