I don't know if these are supposed to be fleshy looking but I really enjoyed doing it anyway. #paintingminis #warhammer #minipainting.

Finally back at the waiting desk after getting one that's a more comfy height. Started on this chap last night. Really pleased with the glory effect on the arch bit. #paintingminis #minipainting #warhammercommunity

I’ve still not done any painting so here is another cute picture of my dog hugging her dismembered unicorn while napping in a sunbeam. #dogsofbluesky #shibainu #miniaturepainting #notreally

I haven’t posted in a while because I’ve not been painting as much as I should. So instead, here is a picture of my dog, Yuki, being very unimpressed about wearing my scarf. #dogsofbluesky #shiba #notwarhammer

I’m getting a bit red blind from the Angels of Death so I thoughts I’d try out my colour scheme for the Plague Marines. Desolate Brown went on much darker than I thought but I really like it. I also enjoy painting skulls. #paintingminiatures #miniaturepainting #warhammercommunity #warhmer40k

Calling these three done… ish.. maybe. For now anyway. Want to keep them simple so I can actually play a game without fretting about scuffed paint. #miniaturepainting #paintingminiatures #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

I definitely think I’ve improved since I painted the chap on the left. There is about 4 years between the two. #miniaturepainting #paintingminiatures #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

I’ve made a start painting the new Kill Team starter set. Decided on a Blood Angels scheme for the marine team. Looking not too bad so far I reckon. #minipainting #paintingminiatures #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

Suddenly, follows sharing posts that make me feel tired and sad are caught in an unstoppable torrent of CHAOS MAGIC and sent tumbling through the aether! Nothing personal, I just need to curate. My Bsky is art and games and pretending the world is OK. Here's a witch. #miniaturepainting #marvel

Now that the guardsmen are done, I’ve made a start on something more whimsical. #wipwednesday #wip #miniaturepainting #paintingminiatures #gnome #wizard

They need a varnish and a victory lap round the base but they are done. I’ll need to take some prettier pictures later. #paintingminiatures #minipainting #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k

My Guardsmen are slowly getting there. I’m quite pleased with the book and the red glow. #miniaturepainting

I’ve had to bodge together a makeshift painting lamp after it went pop and smoke started coming from it. It’s my SAD lamp and some gorilla tape. If it’s stupid and it work then it’s not stupid. #miniaturepainting #fail

I’ve gotten all the uniforms done. Now to spend far too long on all the fiddly bits! First time doing a plasma gun. I’m not entirely satisfied with the result but if I fiddle more I’ll never get the rest of them done! #miniaturepainting #paintingminiatures #warhammer40k #killteam #imperialguard

Yuki recently had an operation and more has to wear this dashing suit. She is not impressed. #dogs #shibainu

So as well as keeping an eye on Yuki, I like to paint minis. This is a chap that I’m working on for the Killteam box. #minipainting #warhammer

Yuki has a cracking day out at Tintagel Castle former seat of King Arthur himself. So fancy it even has a private beach. Just no walls or anything. #shibainu #dogs

Yuki met a new friend the other day. #shibainu #dogs #samoyed
