Meant to just test out the blues and ended up just finishing the entire model. Whoops. #killteam #warhammer40000 #astramilitarum #minipainting #vaporwave

Testing the blue/turquoise mixes I’ll be using before I start blasting on the rest of the squad. #killteam #astramilitarum #minipainting #warhammer40000 #vaporwave

If it bleeds they can kill it. Trying out a vaporwave nighttime based scheme based on the great recent tutorial from craftworldstudio for these alien fighting baddies. #killteam #vaporwave #warhammer40000 #astramilitarum #minipainting

If they’re this fragile I wonder how they’re gonna cope when the environment destroying plagiarism bot bubble bursts.

Just little bits of progress on these two duders while I was streaming today, testing some NMMetallic effects and all that. #warhammer #warhammmer40000 #chaosspacemarines #redcorsairs #nightlords

Did a quick 1hr session to pop the claw and flame a bit more before work today. They were a bit dull last night while I was sketching and my inability to let things rest took that personally. #redcorsairs #chaosspacemarines #warhammer #warhammer40000 #minipainting

Wanted to paint something red so started up the new Huron Blackheart model. Still on the block in stages but it’s a cool one. #redcorsairs #chaosspacemarines #warhammer #warhammer40000 #warhammercommunity

It’s a great undertone. Gives all the shadows a nice purple tinge and helps a bit with unifying everything.

Little bit more work on this HMI. Hit the arms and head today (gun is just some quick placeholder sketching I'm meh on at the moment). #miniaturepainting #trenchcrusade #newantioch #minipainting #grimdark

Just a little bit of progress on this dude. Worked on the back some more, smoothed out some of the blends, adjusted some colors and then added in some wear before I get to far along. #miniaturepainting #trenchcrusade #newantioch #minipainting #grimdark

Got a couple of hours more in on this guy. Pretty rough and I'm almost positive some of the rivets I'm painting might be bits of support now that I look but it kinda works. Friday's stream should hopefully keep up the progress. #miniaturepainting #trenchcrusade #newantioch #minipainting #grimdark

Just one of the models straight out of the kit with the alt options.

Kit Race @kitrace.bsky.social · 01/02/2026
and glazed that inside the previous layer. I kept adding more of the yellow and white to get to the grey green/turquoise color and repeated this to work up to my highlight. Last step was going back in with just the turquoise and glazing that in spots to add some saturation.

Kit Race @kitrace.bsky.social · 01/02/2026
Might be hard to follow but the entire model gets a red underpainting then I mixed a primary red, dark ultramarine blue and turquoise to make a desaturated purple that I then glazed on 90% of the cloak. For the next step up I added more turquoise plus a bit of white and yellow to the previous mix

Progress started on the second trooper for my warband. Still WIP on the armor (I need to tone down the yellow I added in a bit) but happy with the progress so far. #miniaturepainting #trenchcrusade #newantioch #minipainting #grimdark

Stopping the clock and calling this test model for the warband done. All in all I'm really loving these models, hats off to @trenchcrusade.bsky.social and Archon Studio for making some absolute bangers to paint up. #trenchcrusade #grimdark #newantioch #minipainting #miniaturepainting #archonstudio

Just a bit more work on here, hit the gold and hands with some paint before dinner. Looking forward to getting more than 30 mins at a time to work on this again. #miniaturepainting #trenchcrusade #newantioch #minipainting #grimdark

Did some messing around for a couple of hours with a red underpainting and keeping a limited palette (5 colors and then mixing back and forth for what I needed) on this dude. Really like these Trench Crusade models. #miniaturepainting #trenchcrusade #newantioch #minipainting #grimdark

Started the test paint scheme for my Krieg diorama. Gonna miss Adepticon this year but hopefully I can make it out to a comp and bring this guy (and his buddies) along. #warhammer40k #miniaturepainting #deathkorpsofkrieg #warhammer

Did a little bit of work on the Chaos Dwarf then needed a change of pace and switched to the Spira Dwarf Mercenary bust, this'll be my first one going to (hopefully) finish and I was having a blast on it. #miniaturepainting #miniature #warhammer #bloodbowl #chaosdwarfs

Took a model detour during today's stream to paint a messy test for some Emperor's Children. He's a very bright boy. #warhammer #warhammer40k #warhammerpainting #emperorschildren #miniaturepainting #twitch

Forgot to throw these up here yesterday but here’s something I’ve been fiddling with over on Twitch recently. #warhammer #ageofsigmar #twitch

If it was a metallic paint it would look shiny all over since it would reflect the light. In this case though I painted in highlights and shadows with flat colors to imitate that same look, even though my paints weren’t metallic.

Kit Race @kitrace.bsky.social · 08/08/2025
Non Metallic Metal, it’s a more traditional way of painting metallics instead using hobby paints that have metallic flakes in them.

Getting closer to the finish line on this test dude. Fleshed out the muscly arms (pun intended) and did a quick 30 min NMM session on the knife. #killteam #warhammer40k #warhammer #spacemarines

GW must really hate kitbashers, that's like 90% of my enjoyment when it comes to the building side of miniature hobbies. Also immediately makes the Night Lords I'm working on right now illegal under the new rules hah.

That would just be the storyboard department at most places, never mind all the departments later down the pipeline.

Well that’s disappointing. You’d think he’d have a better understanding of how these things are produced after spending so many years working in the film industry. It sounds like he’s never stepped into an animation studio before if he thinks you can count the amount of artists present on two hands.

Kit Race @kitrace.bsky.social · 01/11/2024
Completely forgot I had this thing after taking an extended social media break. Dunno how I’m gonna use this account but here’s some stuff to look at in the meantime I guess.
