I hate shading and highlighting (even though I know it’s important) but sometime I do it and it looks so damn good

A Warhammer Kill Team Voidscarred Corsair model. The model is facing away from the camera and has been undercoated purple. Most of it is otherwise unpainted, but a few red ribbons and a red cloak blowing in the wind have been painted. The cloak has been painted in such a way to enhance the way the folds fall and add depth to the creases using shadows and highlights

A little cosplay of Gemma from Monster Hunter Wilds from tonight’s stream. We start Sekiro next weekend, and while dying only twice seems optimistic, maybe another cosplay isn’t… 👀

Me cosplaying as Gemma from Monster Hunter Wilds, in a blonde, curly wig, beige top with orange undershirt and a pair of steampunk style welding goggles around my neck. In the background is bookshelves filled with books and trinkets

My husband found a bunch of OG metal #Harlequin models at a #Warhammer #40k swap meet (he knows I adore my murder space clowns). They need a good clean but I want to do something special with them. Anyone have ideas or inspiration for colour schemes, displays, etc?
