Andy's Mini of the Month competition is a lot of fun. If you'd like to enter but don't have a mini that needs rescuing, why not grab one of ours instead of going to eBay? We have plenty of rescuable minis, all posted from the UK, for a donation to Mermaids UK + postage. #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

A classic Warhammer Fantasy Heinrich Kimmler miniature with no base, missing the top half of his staff and covered in old paint.Six squads of plastic Cadian Imperial Guard, mostly painted to a basic tabletop standard with heavy weapon teams unpainted and in varying degrees of disrepairFive mostly unpainted but very badly damaged Warhammer 40,000 miniatures that would need some serious repair work to be usableA painted Warhammer Fantasy High Elf mage on horseback with a broken staff and horse tail.
Andy Clark, no, not that one@andycruns.bsky.social · 4d ago

Competition Time! This month the theme is… Rescue Me. Time to find those unloved, unfinished, or otherwise abused minis and make them better. Ebay, swapmeet, boot sale, loft, whatever. Rules on post 2, please read them 1/2 #Nerdlings #MiniOfTheMonth

Armageddon Ork Warboss. I’m calling this one good enough. Actually, I’m calling it really good. Very happy. #WAAGH #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings @prideonparade.bsky.social

A giant ork wearing a copper helmet with a golden colored jaw protector. It’s got bone colored horns with silver metal caps on them. It’s got a red shirt and blue pants, and its boots are covered in purple metallic armor. In its left hand, it’s got a chain axe, with yellow and black hazard stripes on the axe head. An orange tube runs from the handle of the axe. And its right hand holds a double barreled machine gun. The Ork has two metal shoulder pads. The one on its left shoulder has a checkerboard pattern in light blue, pink, and silver, mimicking the colors of the trans pride flag. Rising from the Ork’s back is a pole with a rainbow colored banner. There’s a drawing of a large white skull with a femur behind it kind of like pirate flag. The fist on top of the pole is holographic, but it’s hard to catch on a phone camera.The back view of the Ork reveals that the Ork has a jerrycan fueling the axe, and he’s wearing a bandolier of bullets as a belt.

Armageddon Ork Warboss. Almost done. I’ve got to do the shoulder checkerboard pattern, and there’s a bit of work to be done on top of the banner pole. But it’s close enough for jazz right now. #WAAGH #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

Rainbork update. Dr. Bruce Bannork the Painboy. And Acebomb, IV, the Grot Orderly. #WAAGH #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

An Ork wearing purple pants, a black surgical mask. And a gray and white apron. It’s got some prosthetic bits on its right arm. Next to the Ork is a small Gretchen wearing similar clothes. The Ork has a weapon that looks like a combination of a gun, shears, and a hypodermic needle. The Gretchen is carrying a purple bone saw that’s nearly as tall as he is.Rear view of the same guys. The ork’s arm apparently is a transplant, as it’s a much paler and bluer green. He’s got a large copper tank on his back, and his injector gun is attached to it by a long hose.The same two guys, facing the left side of the frame, revealing the Ork’s transplanted arm and the purple saw.

Rainbork update. Work on the ork mob inspired by pride flags continues. Previously, we had a group of ten orks with the Progress Pride flag colors. In this batch, we’ve got a mob of boyz in the gay pride colors. #WAAGH #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

Arms and big gun need a little Newsh treatment to match the body, but this configuration is done. I’ve got two alternative weapon systems to wrap up before it’s done. Astute readers will see my revisions. #WorkInProgress #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

The Bigmek Dakkarig: I’m really happy with how this turned out, now that it’s painted and based. It’s got 1978 Subaru Station Wagon rust going on. There’s a ton of freehand work. This is acceptable. #WAAGH #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

This is a chicken legged mech with a giant gun. The upper firing platform has a light blue, pink, and white checkered pattern. It’s driven by a bright green ork with the same checkerboard pattern on its shoulders.

Rainbork update. I did not make a mistake. As Bob Ross said: “We don't make mistakes, we just have happy accidents.” And last night’s weathering has become tonight’s prep work. This thing has been through it. #WAAGH #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

Weirdboy: I’m happy with how this turned out, but I know there are things I need to do to make it “better.” There’s only a general stab at real OSL going on here. Trying to think through the color blends… #WAAGH #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

It’s an ork. It’s got a white collar with flying wires and electrical gubbins on it. Everything forward of the collar—the face, chest, and arms of the ork are very dark. The left side of the image is red, and the next wire is yellow, then green, blue, and purple. Moving across to the right. The Ork’s eyes and Tongue are very bright green. The intent is that the collar is glowing brilliantly, and all the colors of the rainbow are shooting off around it. The face and chest are shadowed, but the creature’s eyes and tongue are glowing brightly.Back view of the weirdboy. It’s basically rainbow hued going from purple on the left to red on the right.

Rainboyz Pride Mob. The bases are waiting on supplies, but I wanted to do a close up picture of each of the boyz. #WorkInProgress #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

Armageddon Ork Warboss. Very #WIP. I’m liking this axe. And the glove. Going to be going with a rainbow color scheme. #WAAGH #PaintingWarhammer #Warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity #WePaintMinis #Nerdlings

I haven’t felt great the last couple days so I haven’t painted much Warhammer 40K recently. So here’s a Trans Pride Space Marine! This is one I did a couple weeks ago as a gift that I never posted so as not to spoil the surprise. So here it is now! And remember: Trans rights are human rights!

This is the saddest Battleforce ever. 11 models, a whole lotta tears. Might as well go Lamenters at this points. They may be sorta Codex-Compliant, but they have more flair than the “Red Ultramarines” at this point. Yes, GW. I’m STILL salty. #nerdlings #bloodangels #warhammer40k

The Blood Angels “Battleforce” 5 Assault Intercessors with Jump Pack 1 Blood Angels Chaplain with Jump Pack that isn’t even legal (he has an Inferno Pistol and comes on a smaller base as he’s Firstborn) 3 (very boring and very sad) Sanguinary Guards 1 Brutalis Dreadnought 1 (he must be begging Sanguinius to let him die even more so now than ever before) Commander Dante … A stupid Upgrade Sprue to turn the Assault Intercessors and Dreadnought into Temu Death Company units.

And, something colorful. I thought that traditional dazzle camo would actually work as camouflage in the context of an all-grey dusty concrete world, so you get a lesbian flag camo instead. #miniatures

A figure in chunky power armor, aiming her revolver with an outstretched hand. The helmet is incredibly tall. All plates are some shade of purple or orange, and fully covered in maze-like white stripes.View from the back.

This entire thread absolutely rules. Go over and show these guys some love! @battletechcom.bsky.social and their followers do some really nice work!

Hey there folks, I'll admit, I've been a bit slack when it comes to this account, so I figured I'd stir the pot by doing another pride mech roundup. Have you got any Battletech pride mechs painted up? Drop em in the replies and I'll be sharing them. Thanks y'all!
