Finished painting Kravek Morne a few days ago. interesting model with a load of potential for conversions quite honestly. he was fun apart from the hazard stripes, they were a massive pain to get right!

Miniature Painting, lots and lots of miniature painting. and model building. I also make the occasional Youtube video and sell things I has painted on eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/nofixedcourse-miniature-painting Youtube.com/@nofixedcourse
Got an easy build redemptor dreadnought on the desk for my Ashen Claws force, very slightly reposed and added twin lascannon from a contemptor dread to give it a more 'salvaged from the battlefield and this is all we had to put on it' look
Ork Stormboyz in progress for ebay, a little project to try out better ways of tracking time (and therefore being able to price stuff better instead of WAY too cheap for some things). this is 2 hrs 26 mins into it, not including building and priming.
Gave the smoke cloud on this Warcrow Orc assassin a little more...oomph today
Work in Progress of a practice piece I was messing around with last night, trying to get more focused volumes without having the darker areas look like they were completely unfinished. basically an exercise in giving myself 'room to manoeuvre' with the brightness 🤣
Turnaround of the Ford Diorama so folks can get a better look at whats going on #scalemodelling #car #miniaturepainting
Ford Escort Mk1, one owner from new, never raced or rallied, full service history, possibly haunted.
Warhammer 40K Space Wolf Scout Kill Team I finished a little while ago. went with a more volumetric approach to the armour using Pro Acryl Newsh medium, which is great stuff
Wip of a ruined ford diorama i've been working on lately, got the car glued down last night, so after work today I can start detailing, adding foliage/moss etc!
I finally got around to putting up another video! youtu.be/aHDRdfCB5is

Recent diorama completed for a 'taskmasters' challenge on the Mini Matters podcast discord, theme was two figures but not a duel, closer to something from a movie poster. The legs of the one skelly are actually part of the statue from a nighthaunt character's base
Short 'reel' style video of how to make realistic Moss and getting the best out of Dirty Down Moss. Hopefully it looks ok here I don't know what the ideal video dimensions are for Bluesky. #diorama #warhammer #modelling
Aethon Shaan, the Master of Shadows. Finished him this week (I think anyway, when you paint toy soldiers for a meagre living, days sort of merge together). Entered him into the Squidmar open as well, along with the Triceratops, which for obvious reasons went into the large scale category.
First hobby completion of the new year is actually something of mine rather than the usual commission projects, makes a change. Tamiya triceratops, a really old sculpt from back before they used 3d to sculpt their animals. #dinosaur #Jurassicpark
As a full time painter I really don't abide by holiday breaks, but I do break out the personal stuff to mess around with, like this tamiya triceratops display I'm working on. I'm recording the basing though as it may interest some people #dinosaurs
PaintSlam goes into a new year with #PaintSlam25! The website at paintslam.com has been updated for the new year with new downloads, and I've attached them here for you too. Including a png logo in case you want to put it on your work when you post it!
Burrows and Badgers miniatures from Oathsworn minis. Loads of fun to paint, they don't have that nagging feeling you should be doing it a 'certain way' like gw minis do.
Finally got a photo set up that gives half decent results. Just in time to capture the result of a 2 ish hour exercise in getting a strong look without spending hours on refinement and detail, those I can always add later. #warhammer #skeleton #deathrattle
An actual recent (as in a day or so ago, not the usual 'several months ago because I forgot') finished commission of a Deathwatch Killteam, came out pretty well!
A selection of space marine heads painted up for a Deathwatch commission, which at the time of posting is undergoing the final few touches (should be hitting the photobooth tomorrow at some point) #warhammer40k #deathwatch
Chaos space marine Master of Possession I finished not that long ago. I never seem to link possession with him taking over other people, so the head canon for him is just a dude that collects stuff, like fire and skulls #warhammer40k #chaos #spacemarine
In case it wasn't clear what kind of hobby gremlin I am, I'm,amongst other things, trying to learn 3d modelling at the moment. So far I'm quite far along with a bug mech kind of thing, and started a sci-fi vehicle last night as a little project I can tinker with when I run into problems on the bug.
Yet again trying to catch up with posting on bluesky, and there's a fair bit to post. Illuminor Szeras was one I really enjoyed! Especially playing around with the green power blade. #necron #nmm #miniaturepainting
Joan of Arc from Infinity Panoceania. Tricky to paint because she's really tiny, even for a wargaming figure. #infinity #corvusbelli
I am not built for hot weather, but I fought through and finished Lhykhis 🤣 #warhammer40k #aeldari #eldar
Quick #howto for painting parchment and space marine purity seals #warhammer40k
Here's some Horus Heresy goodness for a Tuesday afternoon, some Veltaris Storm Section I painted up for Siege Studios a couple of months ago. The scheme is to tie-in a solar auxilia force with a blood angels army, and quite honestly they look good in red. #horusheresy #warhammer30k #warhammer
