This Black Dragon is one of my favorite minis, the pose is so dynamic and I think the colors (few though they are) really came together well! I really feel like this depicts an apex predators of the swamp that takes cruel enjoyment in hurting others. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting
A custom painted miniature of a Black Dragon. They have black scaly skin with a pale yellow underbelly, green eyes, off-white horns and teeth, a dark red inner mouth and tongue, black claws, and a black tail barb. They also have mossy gray-green membranes on their wings and the crest along the back of their neck. They are posed in mid-flight, their wings stretched up and slightly out. Their head is turned towards the right, and their tail is in a partial s-shape behind them. The terrain they are flying over is a patch of dark brown swampy ground, which is intercut with streams of green-blue water and dotted with yellow-brown shrubs.

Next up is a Black Dragon Wrymling, one of the more menacing looking of the wrymlings. Not a very colorful mini, but I think I gave it just enough to reflect their fetid swamp environments. I was very happy with how this little guy turned out! #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting

Now for a proper White Dragon miniature. This was one of my earliest painted dragon minis, and I think the first one I did with so much white and a snowy base. I ended up doing several washes trying to get it right, to mixed results. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting

Starting off a string of chromatic dragons with this White Dragon Wyrmling. It can be hard to shade these creatures that are meant to be snow white, but I think it came out okay. I'm definitely happy with the snowy ground and icy breath weapon, though! #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting

The last of my Giant minis to round out a month of monsters, a Cloud Giant! I believe this was a Reaper miniature, but I did this so long ago that I can't remember. A little rough around the edges, but I still like how this paint came out. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting
A custom painted miniature of a Cloud Giant. She has marble white skin, black eyes, and long, feathered,  periwinkle blue hair. She also has dark blue lipstick and black eyeliner. She wears a low-cut, sleeveless blue dress and gold filigree, that has slits up to her waist, showing her legs. She has dark brown pauldrons trimmed in gold, a gold chain belt, gold bracers, a gold anklet on her right leg, a gold laurel garter on her right thigh, and a gold winged headdress with blue gems. Her right hand holds a club made of a white marble statue/column, attached to a dark brown wooden handle by gold fastenings.

A change from my Giant theme, but it felt wrong not to follow up the old-school version with the new Merrow. Rather than an aquatic Ogre, they are depicted as corrupted Merfolk. I like the posing of this figure, but its facial details were blurred away. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting
A custom painted miniature of a Merrow. He has silvery gray scaley skin, sunken blue eyes, and purple-tipped fins on his head, back, forearms, waist, and tail. He has light tan ropes wrapped around his waist and slung across his chest like belts or sashes, with a brown pouch hanging from the ropes over his left hip. Their right hand holds a gray steel barbed harpoon, with rope wrapped around the middle like a grip and tied to the end as a line. He is posed looking to the right, their fish-like tail undulating through a cresting wave of water. Their right hand holds their harpoon up vertically and slightly forward, while their left arm is held out and back, his palm turned forward as if preparing to cast a spell.A side view of the Merrow's mini, showing off his profile and pouch.A back view of the Merrow's mini, showing off their fins and the trailing rope of their harpoon.A side view of the Merrow's mini, showing off his tail and harpoon.

She wears a black sleeveless shirt, an open brown vest, light tan pants, and a red sash around her waist.

She holds a large axe in both hands, which has a massive gray steel single head and a rough brown wooden handle.

While there are a lot of Flesh Golem minis out there, I found the official ones didn't quite meet the size I was looking for. This big fella captured the design I wanted, a hulking brute made of layers of stitched together bodies. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting

There are also several lime green pustules, mostly on their right shoulder and chest, and pronounced pink veins from the back of their neck. They have pronounced yellow teeth, and one brown eye and one blue. They are held together by white stitches and black bolts.

Continuing the monster trend with a Clay Golem! I feel like in modern days, people think more of stone or metal when referring to Golems, but the original stories of Golems have them made of mud or clay. I think this simple paint came out pretty well! #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting
A custom painted miniature of a Clay Golem. They are shaped roughly like a large humanoid, with a brown-yellow clay form. They are posed in a slight squat, their right hand reaching out to the side and their head turned to face in that direction as well.

My next monster for August is the Bulette, the infamous D&D land shark. The gray and brown pallet for them could easily come off as boring, but I think between the texture details and the dynamic pose of the mini, this one came out pretty interesting. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting

It's July 23rd, my birthday! 🎉 The Kattabolt Kickstarter starts tomorrow and runs for TWO WEEKS. I'd really appreciate if you'd share this post around for me. Kattabolt is my coming of age fantasy webcomic, which you can read here: kattabolt.com KICKSTARTER: www.kickstarter.com/projects/353...
A cute doodle of apricot, who has short hair, glasses, and some moles in various places. They are holding up 3 and 4 fingers on each hand. Below that is some pages from their webcomic, Kattabolt.
The image reads:
"Heya! I'm apricot, and TODAY is my birthday! TOMORROW, July 24th, 2026, is the launch of my comic Kickstarter- I'm aiming to print chapter one of my webcomic, Kattabolt. It's my first personal campaign, but you might also know me from my work on the dating sim TTRPG, Heartbeat Highschool.
Kattabolt means the world to me, so I'd really appreciate it if you would share this post as a small birthday gift for me. Thanks so much!"

Kattabolt synopsis:
Twelve year old Alex is participating in a special program for "young ambassadors" that takes her to the neighboring country of Thandinas; a rural, mountainy land, freed not so long ago from wartime occupation. Having reached the end of the train route, Alex must continue on foot to the home of the reclusive Lord Kerri, the country's matriarch and Alex's host for the duration of her ambassadorship.
How can Alex navigate a world of beasts, dangerous secrets, and missing magics while carrying the burden of her own spark of power?

Following up the juvenile from the other day with my fully grown adult Kraken! I feel like between the barnacles and all the spikes, you can really feel the age and menace of this one. An older paint job, but ine that I feel holds up pretty well! #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting

Moving into a scorching July with a cool, aquatic creature. This Juvenile Kraken is a bit simple, but is a good hint at the nightmare to come when they reach adulthood. #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #minis #minipainting
A custom painted miniature of a Juvenile Kraken. They have greenish skin on thier squid-like body, with serated fins on either side of their mantle and a blue-gray serated fin on the top of it. They have two large, red eyes with horizontal pupils, and their eight long arms have dirty white spikes lined up at the end of them. They are posed swimming at an angle, their head mantle higher and their arms lower, with thier body held up by a column of water.A side view of the Kraken's mini, showing off their spiked arms.A side view of the Kraken's mini, showing off their eyes and mantle fins.
