Miniature Painting and Random Thoughts

  • Had a goal of 1 Squad of Boys, the Weirdboy, the Warboss, and the new warbike. Managed to do everything except for the warbike, but the Warboss is a bit rough compared to the rest of them. This experiment of clearing out my backlog has been largely successful, but I’m starting to get bored and worn down by just pumping out models all the time. However, the squad of Boys was really fun. I think a squad a month is a reasonable goal… but I just need to stop buying things.

  • Finished 6/25/26. No airbrush on these guys, all hand brushed. Overall, really like how they turned out. The ivory is a bit brighter than my other Deathwing models, but I like it. Had these models sitting in my back log for a while, but after I won my first game of Combat Patrol with them, I decided to have them finished up.

    There’s some sloppiness here, especially in the eyes and basing, but my goal for this year is to Slay the Gray. Especially since I just bought City of Ash and the Armageddon box sets.

  • May 2026. One of the last models I painted for the Skaven Spearhead. (full image of the spearhead to come next. Experimented with air brush for the glow of the base, and I dig it a lot. That being said, I’m really hit or miss on the Skaven models. Some are really fun to paint, but others, like this one, are pretty boring for my style.

  • May 2026. I dunno. I both kinda hate painting these guys and kinda love them. The green crystals are fun, and while I don’t love the skin, I think it does look good.

  • May 2026. A local-ish game store is doing an AOS escalation league, so I decided to dive all into finishing up my skaven. This one is not the last, but I feel soooo much more confident about this one than the previous models I did. Very clear improvements over the older ones.

  • April 2026. Honestly, my favorite faction to paint is still the Battle Sisters. Really fun model to paint, but I’m still feeling like I want to get as much painted as possible as opposed to spending a lot of time on a single model. In the future, it’ll be fun to do a really good squad of Nundams.

  • Late March 2026. That’s right, I was able to get the LAST Starcraft box set from Adepticon. Adeptacon? Trying to speedpaint these guys when I want a change from my ongoing projects. They’re pretty fun, but just tyranids.

  • Early March 2026. More from the Darkwater box set. I really didn’t like painting these guys…. glad I bought the Maggotkin spearhead after this!

  • Early March 2026 – Fully testing out the airbrush here. Spent a lot of time on the blasters themselves, and don’t super love the glow effect…. but it’s fine for a first attempt.
