for context, I guess.
A screenshot from Warframe of the Titania Prime frame. Its main skin has been swapped out with the Donann cosmetic, which gives it a more high-tech appearance with holographic wings and glowing fingertips/claws. The main colors are a very desaturated violet, a slightly lighter shade, a cool green, and a pale blue-white, with the colors selected to make it look like the blue-white is her skin. Her glowing wings and various ports are a very pale turquoise blue.

This was largely a flight of fancy trying out some new paints and techniques, but I'm really happy with how it came out in the end. Base is the wrong size, but I don't play Salamanders, so he won't see play. #warhammer40k #miniaturepainting #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #needlings

I recommend the Manga series Our Teachers are dating. It's a fairly short series (4 volumes) about a pair of teachers at an all girls school. It's mostly soft and fluffy (the writer described her intent as wanting to draw soft kisses and hot sex) and the characters talk through conflicts like adults
The cover to the first volume of Our Teachers are Dating! Written and drawn by Pikachi Ohi.

The cover depicts the two Teachers, a shorter blonde and taller brunette. The blonde is wearing a lab coat over a green dress and holding a biology textbook, the taller one is in a track suit

Finally got around to finishing the AOS commemorative model and really happy with how it came out. I tried to push myself to do the more detailed sculpt justice. #paintingwarhammer #ageofsigmar #miniaturepainting #nerdlings
A photo of a Warhammer Age of Sigmar model that's been fully painted.

Model is of a woman with white hair and red eyes in dark, heavy, rusted armor standing on a rock surrounded by snow. She's wearing tattered cloak made of skin with fur over the top and there's a light dusting of snow.

In her left hand, held point down with her gauntleted hand resting on the hilt, is a massive sword. Its hilt is a bronze demon head with the steel blade emerging from the mouth. Glowing orange runes decorate the length of the blade.A photo of a Warhammer Age of Sigmar model that's been fully painted from the back.

The woman's skin cloak is on full display with the tattered, pale skin flapping in the breeze. Over her back is her shield, a massive greatshield made of the same dark, rusty metal as her armor. It's adorned with a bronze eight-pointed star of chaos in the center and a steel chain is draped across it. From it, a severed skull and hand hang. The flesh of the hand is pale and rotted and the skill is mostly bare save for a bit of scalp left.

Wrapping up for now as I need to pack up and go home. Next steps are red highlights on the trim, shoulder, and tabard; another thin coat on the mace and then bone highlights and washes; and gray highlights on the robes. Then some blood for the blood god and a bit of a wait for the heads and basings.

It's wearing dark metallic armor with the details slightly highlighted with one of the base colors I used for the armor without any black mixed in. Skull details on the chest, tabard, pauldron, as well as its mace and censer have been painted a bone white.

Its right pauldron as well as its tabard have now been painted a deep red and, while it's hard to see, the robes have been painted a very dark gray with only the deepest folds being left as the original true black.
