Part 3 of 2026's first hobby project, Sir Émeric de l’Aiguille, son of Lord Reynald, battle standard bearer. The standard depicts the brotherhood between Lord Reynald and Duke Gilon of Aquitaine and their epic battle against a Chaos dragon. #warhammercommunity #Bretonnians #warhammerfantasy

Part 2 of my Warhammer Bretonnians project, a full unit of Knights of the Realm. Really fun to do the individual heraldry on these and already planning out the second unit! #warhammercommunity #brettonians #warhammerfantasy

Loving my latest project; Warhammer Bretonnians. This is my converted Lord on Hippogryph, Lord Reynald de l’Aiguille, riding Aubéclaw from the province of Parravon. #warhammercommunity #bretonnians #warhammerfantasy

Thank autocorrect for the hashtag that should have been #grandcathay Still, grandad, as a model building enthusiast, might well have appreciated this post! 😄

While I'm on a fantasy kick, here's a Warpfire Dragon I bashed up out of the new AoS zombie Dragon. I stuck some flickering green LEDs in it and it looks great at night!

Been a while, but having tons of fun painting the GW Cathay models. So much so that I've taken a break from playing 40k and smashed out a game of fantasy for the first time in years! #warhammerfantasy #warhammercommunity #grandfather #gamesworkshop

The wings are from the Sororitas terrain piece; a statue in the recent Kill Team box set. They did need some cutting, pinning and gap filling to fit against the back.

Almost! It's an overly complicated process of prime black, heavy gunmetal zenithal, TD People Eater from below then TD Hotline from above. The Hotline does have a purple shimmer but both are billed as regular metallics. I did spray a Violet Ink from below and magenta contrast from above too.

Not been posting as frequently as I would like. But back in the painting game with a winged demon Prince for Emperor's Children. #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k #gamesworkshop #emperorschildren

Opted for more teal on this Lord's topknot. Now the basing crisis begins... desert? Snow? I don't know! #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k #emperorschildren

Thank you! Now I just need to do it a bunch more times on the regular lads 😬

It's mostly cheating with an airbrush, but I did go back over blending between the teal and purple. I loooooove blending, it's my happy place.

Been really inspired lately by all the excellent hobby content on here. I recently finished painting another 5 Howling Banshees to add to an existing group of 5, then treated myself to a little kitbash in the evening. Presenting a precariously balanced female Farseer #warhammer #aeldari #40k

Trying to match 5 Banshees to the 5 I painted 2+ years ago! Really great to see one if the EG stores on here!

Done my part, every little helps. Just imagine if every person horrified by that display of disrespect donated. I would love to see their donation metrics this weekend. Slava Ukraini!

Such iconic models. Is that a metallic sheen on the blue? Looks great!

Vaiuri @vaiuri.bsky.social · 26/02/2025

I use exactly that; micro set and sol. It's great stuff! There's still some work to do with chipping and weathering so I expect it will look better after that and some matt varnish.

Vaiuri @vaiuri.bsky.social · 26/02/2025

Oh good heavens, no, they are decals that I painted over 😄 My freehand is terrible! I got the griffon and mer...goat? Capricorn? Whatever it it, I got them printed in a few different sizes so I can use them across different Knights.

Same for the struggle! Honestly, I found the banner the worst part.

Change is as good as a rest! Just put them to one side for a bit, it really helped me when I needed a break from Striking Scorpions 👍

OMG... Monday 😐 Seriously though, to be this creature and have nothing to worry about other than maybe getting the same dinner two times in a row. The struggle is real. #cats

I can't. It's carnage 🤣 Great to see some organised inspiration though!

Some WIPs. Test model for Dark Reapers and begun to work on Fuegan. Yes, I'm a monster that avoids sub assemblies at all costs 😂 #warhammer #aeldari #warhammercommunity

I'm stealing this scheme for my Trog 😍 I've been throwing contrast on my Lizards in a "paint by numbers" style to speed me up and stop me spending hours on a blend... doesn't always work but it's tons of fun!

Vaiuri @vaiuri.bsky.social · 21/02/2025

Love the animal skin colours and patterns. Something I've always struggled with; these look fantastic and really wild!

LOVE this ❤️ I have a bad habit of using muted colours a lot in my painting, it's schemes like this that encourage me to be more bold! Super inspirational, thanks for sharing!

Remember the old GW collectors guides? Part catalogue, part showcase, they were an old-school printed way to share hobby inspiration. I'm proud to have been a part of this hobby for so long and very happy to find so many inspiring people in the community. #warhammer #warhammercommunity #lizardmen

I still love the old metal Stegadon. I found my Warhammer Lizard army months ago to recover anything unpainted for AoS and had fun looking at all the old figures

Late to the party posting something green! Lizardmen/Seraphon have always held a special place in my heart and these new Kroxigor sculpts are fantastic! #warhammer #warhammercommunity #lizardmen #seraphon

Chunklet-sized goals. Start with a character or a unit. Then do 500 points. Then another. Mix things up to stop boredom or insanity setting in. Join a group! Keep each other going with regular check-ins. I painted 1000 pts Seraphon and Stormcast and 1500 pts Raven Guard in '24 using this method.

Vaiuri @vaiuri.bsky.social · 19/02/2025

Ah, I get you! Basing has always bothered me; but I started out with the snowy look so feel kinda locked in to it now. Perhaps I should have painted them white to be actually stealthy 😄

Vaiuri @vaiuri.bsky.social · 19/02/2025

Cheers! I set myself a precedent with the black body suit on my Guardians; now everyone has to have it and oh boy is it time consuming!

Vaiuri @vaiuri.bsky.social · 19/02/2025

The base green? I think that's what bothers me know these - I tend to paint more realistically but have been challenging myself with the Aeldari to use colours other than black and brown 🤣 What do I go to correct this? Go back in for some darker shading on the green?

Vaiuri @vaiuri.bsky.social · 19/02/2025

Not my best work, nor my best photo, but happy to get another painted unit on the table for my Aeldari. Working on a Wave Serpent next! #warhammer #40k #aeldari #warhammercommunity
