Painting assembly in full swing. Also realized I covered my paint in blood with the last boi. Reminder to not splatter blood technical when you have screens or important documents on your table. #painting #paintingwarhammer #warhammer40k #warhammercommuntiy #minis #miniatures #paintingminis

Got some solid progress on a Wardog. This is the most battle damage I have ever put on a model and has been very fun to paint up. (Finished dogs for color scheme reference) #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k #minis #miniatures #paintingminis #paintingminiatures #painting #chaos #chaosknights

Have you ever checked the lists for a tournament at a new lgs and thought "almost every one of these is going to be a fucking slog with these meme ass gottcha lists"? I can either spend the day with my family, or try to deal with 5 baneblades. So now I got a day with my kids AND my guys are painted

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Finished basing and now all loaded up for the tournament tomorrow. Going to finalize the paint jobs at a later date (currently have a chaos knight on the paint mat) #warhammer40k #minis #miniatures #painting #paintingminis #paintingminiatures #warhammercommunity #salamanders

Terminator Sargent almost battle ready. Crackle basing paint just came in, so going to finish up the other 4 and then do a mass basing to finish everything up. #warhammer40k #minis #miniatures #painting #paintingminis #paintingminiatures #3dprinted #printedminis

Gonna stop here with them for now a "battle ready" sans bases. Game plan is to knock out the termies in a similar way and then mass basing. #warhammer40k #minis #miniatures #painting #paintingminis #warhammercommunity

Took a little "dodging burnout" break, but finished blacking out everything finally so I can get them tournament ready for this weekend. #warhammercommunity #painting #miniatures #minis #paintingminis #warhammer40k #paintingminiatures

Going to call it done here (for now. Pretty sure I missed random details all over honestly...) but I finally own a tank! #warhammer40k #painting #miniatures #minis #paintingminiatures #salamanders

Yesterday was rough as shit and I wasn't about to paint after that much whiskey, but tonight I was able to get the brass on and wash it down. #warhammer40k #painting #minis #miniatures #paintingminiatures #salamanaders

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

Took forever to black out everything, but wash is on the dark reds and will be good for some dry brushing and detail work tomorrow. #warhammer40k #minis #miniatures #paintingminiatures #salamanders #painting

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

Bladeguard complete! They are a combination of Emberforge bits and EightLegsMiniatures bodies for some solid proxies. I am very pleased with how they came out. #warhammer40k #minis #miniatures #painting #paintingminis #paintingminiatures

Taking the batch painting slow, but making progress. I always enjoy painting scales... #warhammer40k #minis #miniatures #painting #paintingminis #paintingminiatures #wargammercommunity

Cleaned up the green, started on a boi, and my transfers FINALLY came in, so started getting those on. #warhammer40k #painting #minis #miniatures #paintingminiatures #warhammercommunity #paintingminis

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

First bladeguard complete. Majority is Emberforge except the shoulders, which I found on cults forever ago. #warhammer40k #painting #minis #paintingminis #painting #miniatures #paintingminiatures

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

Flag Boi complete! Next up is some bladeguard I printed using Emberforge bits. I am very excited to paint them up. #warhammer40k #minis #painting #paintingminis #paintingminiatures #miniatures #warhammercommunity

Some more assembly and a bit of painting today. It rained, so I couldnt prime and had a date night, so not much painting time, but happy with the progress. #warhammer40k #minis #miniatures #painting #paintingminiatures #paintingwarhammer #paintingminiatures

Some current projects being worked on for a Norn Tyrant Tervigon heavy crusher list. Tentacle boi there is waiting to dry before he gets his wings and base. #warhammer40k #painting #minis #paintingminiatures #miniatures #warhammercommunity

Had an after-hours meeting, but I was able to assemble some prints that just finished up at least #minis #miniatures #3dprinting #warhammer40k

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Wrought Protector, Da'Shol ready. Never tried a flat grey like this, but I like it. I will probably go and add some nuln to his chest plaque tho. #warhammer40k #minis #painting #paintingminiatures #miniatures #paintingminis

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Golden Fury, Ni'Mar completed! Next up is a tournament this weekend with my Nids, and later Tempering Rage or Wrought Protector is up depending on how I'm feeling #painting #minis #miniatures #paintingminiatures #warhammer40k #paintingminis

So my head cannon is inspired by the now Legends Salamander's dreadnaught Iron Dragon - Bray'arth Ashmantle, in that the dreadnaught chassis is named and honored as much as it's entombed. And this lets me paint each super unique, so why not. #painting #minis #miniatures #paintingminiatues #40k

Printed proxies for Redemptor/ballistics/brutalis. The boxnaught+leviathan vibes won me over

Molten Honor, Po'Yor and Brass Anvil, Heth'Gol complete. 7 more to go. #painting #minis #miniatures #paintingminiatures #warhammer40k

Super heated armor panels on the next dreadnaught - Molten Honor, Po'Yor. Weapon details and some glue left to finish him up tomorrow. #warhammer40k #minis #painting #paintingminiatures #miniatures #warhammercommunity

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

Final two complete! I think I will revisit this and redo the green fist and black sword? But for now they are done. I strongly recommend doing a similar challenge and just trying new things you wouldn't do normally. #warhammercommunity #minis #painting #paintingminiatures #miniatures #warhammer40k

PapaRook @paparook.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Shorter day, but the last 3 are prepped for the final haul. Picked out 3 effects I want to try for, but I am open to suggestions if yall have a good one. #minis #painting #miniatures #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity #paintingminiatures
