Wip Wednesday Screaming bell nearly done, a few more attachments and glueings and she'll be finished Mostly gears and greebles if I'm honest #skaven #warhammer #ageofsigmar #nerdlings #wipwednesday

Show me some armour baybeeee! #nerdlings

Finished Vizzik today. He was a lot of fun, but I am definitely ready to paint something smaller 😂 #nerdlings #miniaturePainting #warhammer #AoS

Some WIP from Saturday. Grey Seer on Bell kitbashed from a Grundstock Gunhauler. Remaining bits to go are: 1. Attaching the bell 2. Rigging up greebles on the balloon 3. Adding a ton of chains 4. Finishing the base #skaven #warhammer #ageofsigmar #nerdlings

Starting on my vegetables (80 clanrats), doing 4 at a time. At this pace They'll eventually be ready for Ghyran! #ageofsigmar #skaven #warhammer #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Well, my Apoxie sculpt must have gone bad because now i have this lump of semi cured plastic putty on my desk after 48 hours, and it's still squishy. Guess I'm greenstuffing this portal.

While waiting for the back half of the portal to dry, I've started on a secondary thing I've been planning for months. Mecha Verminlord legs have been posed and pinned so i can take them on and off of the base for sculpting #skaven #warhammer #ageofsigmar #nerdlings

Screaming bell has arrived, and I've started work on the portal. + primed my 20 clanrats, all ready for painting #skaven #warhammer #ageofsigmar

Rebased all 20 of my first clanrat unit, ready for round 2. Also started work on my portal for the flying screaming bell, one side i want to be forests of Ghyran, the other, a section of Blight City sunk into the realm. We'll see how it goes #skaven #ageofsigmar #warhammer #nerdlings

Back to being ratbrained because i found 2x Grundstock Gunhaulers (assembled and part painted), and a Screaming bell for cheap. Thankfully, no primer or plastic glue was used, so it's going to be a really fun Screaming Bell kitbash for SoG. #skaven #warhammer #nerdlings #miniaturepainting

Willing to say good enough on this lot. Squad 1 of Kabalites of the Black Heart. Might come back tomorrow and touch up guns for 15 mins, but got hit hard by some emotions end of week from out of nowhere so got to the end and just bleh. #drukhari #40k #miniaturepainting #nerdlings #warhammer

WIP Wardog Wednesday Aiming to finish these beasties today. Might even submit one for #mechamay -- #holyfireminis #wip #wipwednesday #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity #chaosknights #minipainting #nerdlings

Re-photo'ed this big guy. Can't believe this was done 6 months ago (and my first post on Bluesky) Time flies 🤔 #chaos #chaosmarines #slaanesh #wh40k #nerdlings #warhammer40k #paintedminis #miniaturepainting

Another one down and oh my god, trollslayer orange is so good. Touched up all of my NMM bronzes with it and am now half finished with my Kabalites of the Broken Heart. 1 more splinter rifle, then all of my special weapons to go. #drukhari #40k #nerdlings #miniaturepainting

Another Kabalite finished while i wait for FFXIV maintenance. I feel like i need to get a poppy orange to really sell the NMM bronze. A green wash will really bring these guys together as well. Very excited to get the squad done. #drukhari #40k #warhammer #nerdlings #miniaturepainting

Skull posting time #nerdlings #miniaturepainting

Found my NMM bronze recipe. Coat with Black Legion, 80% Eshin Grey > 40% Dawnstone > 10% Ulthuan Grey Then hit it with a coat of Gryph-Hound Orange Guns came out cleaner this time, i got really frustrated just full body black legioned them #drukhari #40k #warhammer #miniaturepainting

Progress! Started on my Kabalites. Not sure how i feel about the guns, plan was to just highlight with Eshin Grey but my pot was fully dried out because i dun goofed. Might redo the guns later. #drukhari #40k #warhammer #miniaturepainting

Weather has been ASS the last few days. In lieue of doing models I've just been playing Final Fantasy 14 to catch up on content. Finally on current patch with current gear tho for the first time since 5.35

My Kill Team is drying, so i moved onto my Talos. Wanted to save some bits for a Verminlord kitbash, so ive had to make a flat mold of his back so i have a surface to sculpt flayed skin etc onto. My mans is in masking tape jail while it sets. Free Him! #drukhari #warhammer #40k #miniaturepainting

Additional angles of the duellist from my previous post because i like the fur texture #drukhari #warhammer #killteam

All of the various stuff has set, experimented with milliput and greenstuff (and milli-stuff) for my hand of the archon Kill Team. Roles in alt text. Dark lance Heavy needs some cables but is drying currently, next pic will be him painted up probably. #drukhari #warhammer #killteam

With the codex on the horizon it’s time to finish Mort #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #40k #wip #deathguard #minipainting

Having to wait for GreenStuff and Milliput to dry, so progress is slow but i think we're cooking. Cut up a Genestealer Biophagus for my Elixicant. Also gave my Arch-Sybarite a cape that needs finishing #drukhari #killteam #40k #miniaturepainting #warhammer

Some nice wips for #wipwednesday. Done the fur, and clothing, just some leather/metal/scarring details, a final highlight on the flesh, and then the weapons. I'll be picking up a couple doomflayers this weekend I might take a break from rats for a bit #skaven #minipainting #warhammertheoldworld

Learning experience: Apoxie Sculpt is pretty great for blocking things out. Pretty terrible for detailing stuff like cloth, skin, leather at a troop level. When it thins down, it goes from a nice smooth material down to a chunky edged, easily tearable material that doesn't bend nicely and tears.

Update for over the weekend: Currently kitbashing the raider Kabalites into a kitbashed "Hand of the Archon" kill team squad. Pictured on the tape is Flayer, ArchSybarite, Heavy Gunner, Agent, Gunner. Going to do the rest of the team this weekend if i can #drukhari #40k #warhammer

KHAINES WILL! Incubi are all finished. First attempt at nmm, will refine but pretty happy with how my first test has come out. #drukhari #warhammer #40k #miniaturepainting

Part 2: cloaks and NMM for tomorrow, spent tonight on helmets, horns, and vanes #drukhari #warhammer #40k #miniaturepainting

So this got away from me for a number of reasons, chief reason is that i found out that polymer clay dries a bit too brittle for use in molding applications. That and after getting my car serviced it's going to be a while before i get new materials to recast the bits i want to recast.

Got some frustrating news at work, so I've just spent the last 4 hours doing the only rational thing to do after hearing that work did something shitty: Paint the 90% edge highlighting gang to "relax"

Warlock Galvaneer Contrast paints are great, purely because with them you can find your highlights and lowlights better with layer paint. #skaven #warhammer #ageofsigmar #miniaturepainting

Base coating on my Warlock Galvaneer done. Feels good to get even a tiny bit of closure on this one. #skaven #ageofsigmar #miniaturepainting #warhammer

Some nmm experiments #trenchcrusade #minipainting

I drew this 🤪 #warhammer #miniaturepainting

Hobby Schedule is looking a bit hectic the next few weeks. Currently the to-do list is as follows: 12-13/4: Bluestuff moulding tests for clanrat bases 17-21/4: moulding larger pieces (WLC wood panels etc) + priming of clanrats 25-27/4: painting of clanrats or WLC kitbashing (w/ warlock galvaneer)

A studio shot of the finished Kharadon Hero characters. Really happy with how these guys turned out. Fun sculpts to paint. #AgeofSigmar #WarhammerCommunity #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer #MiniaturePainting

Ay theres me

I'm going to commit so many hobby crimes. Like ***checking notes*** not buying 4 boxes of scourges to get 5 dark lances

Stab-stab, for the GREAT HORNED RAT YES-YES #art #miniaturepainting #paintingwarhammer #skaven
