Oh, those look so cool! Love your Hollow Knight stuff!

Mega Pelipper has so much room for cool designs. Do they remain a pelican? Does their silhouette switch from a fishing boat to something larger, like a cargo barge? The possibilities are tantalizing!

Sorry to hear it. Ordered some stuff from your shop, hope it can help improve things a little.

Encarnacíon is the disguise Salem used when she first met the party. It was the name and face of her slain father, and she hoped that using his visage might lure out the vampire that attacked her family when her mother was pregnant. This eventually worked, in a way.

Congratulations, your performance seems like a perfect fit for her!

Dorian Storm was the very last one I painted, literally doing the whole thing during the tailgate and part 1 for the Campaign 3 finale. I was incredibly pleased with how the gradient of his top came out, but his hair was much trickier. Glad I got him done!

Orym of the Air Ashari had some deceptively complicated parts. The fading colors of his armor were a tricky one, and I had to simplify the pattern on his sword and shield, but it came out pretty good!

Fearne herself is a far more complicated design, with all her flowers and flowing clothes. I'm not completely happy with the color of her hair, but I'm pleased with how the rest of ot came out.

Fearne Calloway was cut from the same cloth as a Taliesin character. Lots of colors and details and gradients. At least her companion, Little Mister, is fairly straight forward.

Ashton Greymoore continues Taliesin Jaffe's trend of fondly hassling artists of all stripes by making his character's have so many details. I had to simplify his scars, as well as the patches on the jacket. Very happy with how the colors came out, though!

Ah, Fresh Cut Grass. You sweet little fella. His mini wasn't too bad, though his backpack is pretty busy. I'm pretty happy with the way his paint came out, I think I got that look of painted metal that's been chipped away.

Unlike Laudna's dark pallet, Imogen is all light colors. I wasn't sure how best to do the coloring for her sheer clothing, and to a lesser extent her lavender hair. I'm very happy with the end result, though!

Laudna was unique in not just the dark pallet she uses, but also the numerous small details on her person. She definitely is a collection of the things in her life, and I hope I captured that well.

Chetney's werewolf form was a much simpler paint, though I wasn't totally sure how his scars would come out. In the end, I think they look pretty good.

Chetney Pock O'Pea initially looked like an easy paint, but his small size and complicated hat made it tricky. I simplified the hat's pattern, and I'm very thrilled with how his nose has that rosey tip, but i realize I forgot the tattoo. Maybe later!

While he may not be a proper member of the team, Shakäste was a great aid to them in their early adventures. He was a relatively simple paint, but his hair came out great! Though I forgot his eyes were supposed to be milky.

The only thing better than Caduceus is Caduceus with a hat! This straw hat was a favorite of his, and I'm glad this mini varient exists to show it off, along with his love of tea and decomposing bodies.

When the Mighty Nein were nearly broken, Caduceus Clay helped to put them back together. He offered a chance to use some colors I hadn't played with much, given his mint green and light pink pallet.

Ah, Mollymauk Tealeaf. Gone too soon. His mini had so many details and patterning changes, but it came out pretty well! If I were to do it again now, I'd probably try to get his tattoos on him.

Yasha Nydoorin is another one where I found a problem I wouldn't solve until later. Her eyeshadow looks disconnected from her eyes. I eventually learned to paint a patch of the makeup, then paint the eyes over that. Always a lesson to be learned!

Beauregard Lionett seems simple enough, with her all blue pallet, but there are several shade of blue that shift back and forth. Still, not too bad!

Fjord Stone showed me an issue I wouldn't solve until later. His yellow irises get lost in the whites if his eyes. Pro tip, mix in just a bit of brown to darken the yellow and help it contrast (or use a darker yellow paint, if you have a lot of varieties).

Jester Lavorre is by far the cutest little blue tiefling you'll ever see! Her design seems kinda straight forward, but there are some hidden details in there too. Did she ever use that sickle?

The main issue I had with painting the mini for Caleb Widogast was getting the haircolor right. A little orange, kinda brown. I think it came out well, and I'm even pleased with the fur pattern for Frumpkin!

Nott the Brave is a fairly simple design with a few notable details. I hope they eventually put out more unpainted minis for the Mighty Nein, I'd love to get a chance to paint her in her yellow dress, or as Veth. Maybe someday!

He looked great back then, I'm still not sure what happened to the Yoda puppet in Phantom Menace. Still, bringing on Frank Oz was genius!

Go Home Annie is a very good indie horror game. It's probably about 3-4 hours long, if that's a concern.

The final piece in my Vox Machina collection is Doty, the faithful automaton companion of Tary. A surprisingly simple design, but one that came out very well.

Taryon Darrington and his mechanical assistant, Doty, are perhaps not the most well known members of Vox Machina, but I'm glad they made him a mini (even if that was a lot of details!)

Trinket was simple paint job, though I'm very happy with how his armor came out. Detailing is always easier on larger creatures like bears.

Vex'ahlia Vessar and her faithful companion Trinket the bear were the first of the Vox Machina minis that I painted. They were arguably some if the simpler ones, but I'm still pleased with how they came out.

Scanlan (along with Pike) were my first ventures into painting the smaller humanoids. He was a particularly colorful pallet, as should be expected.
