Meet Flapsy Wiggleton, my customised Heldrake with scratch-built tail and rear legs! The tail is articulated (best quality: their wiggles) and the rear leg joints are functional to help with posing. Approximately a hundred-ish hours of indecision and faffing about to get to this point! 🤣 #minatures

Okay so I am terrible at keeping up with things here, but better late than never, right? 🤣 I was at GHMX last weekend, entered some of my minis into their mini competition, and of the three categories I entered, I won gold in all three :3 I was both surprised and delighted at these results! :D

Just finished my latest commission, this lil guy - Miyamoto, Ronin Kitsune! I really enjoyed doing the snowy woodland base especially. XD Let me know what you think!

okay let's see if bsky will actually post this for once XD here's a little something I'm working on atm - still very early stages, working out specifics, but I'm excited for it :3

an unpainted plastic miniature of a dragon-horse with a rider wielding a glaive, on an in-progress display base made of sheets of balsa wood. the display base is made to look like a backdrop of mountains and floating sky islands.

Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached. They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others. Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further. #UBI doesn’t kill ambition, it frees it.

Anyone else have problems trying to post photos to bsky from their phones? I've tried multiple times and the post never goes through, but it also doesn't give me any kind of error message. Is there some kinda image size limit or something?

Here's a couple of my WIPs atm! The lightning for the dragon's base still needs some refining, but overall I'm quite pleased with how it's turning out. I'm also pleased with the tweaks I made to the gryphon model to get this specific head/reins to work with this rider. lmk what you think! :D

Planning on adding a scratch-built tail to my heldrake! The joint between neck and body has also been mildly articulated, but I don't think I'll bother doing so with any of the limbs. They'll get glued in after painting (if i ever get that far! 🤣)

Assembling a Heldrake for myself, decided to attempt articulating the head a bit! Drilled a couple of holes, carved a connecting piece out of sprue, and it works quite nicely! Reasonable range of motion and it also lets me extend/retract the head a bit. Gonna make painting easier!

Finally getting around to doing a bit of an intro post, so! G'day all, I'm Skits, an ineffable eldritch Aussie abomination. 🤣 I customise and paint minis, both for myself and on commission, and I stream a lot of it on Twitch. I'm always happy to talk hobby and (attempt to) answer questions! 😄
