Due to its yellowness, a friend of mine dubbed him "Orconzola", so this is now his name forever.

The yellow Orconzola now has two companions: Big Boy Blue, and the greenest Green Knight.
I am still absolutely terrible at both blending and basing, but I think I am slowly getting a hang about edge highlighting and gaining some brush control (I know it is nothing special, but I am very proud of the tiny free-hand on the green orc's shield).

With the arrival of the "Fabulous Pink Orc", the "Powwa Renga" orc squad is complete.

Somebody asked me where the black Powwa Renga was, so I painted one.
(First attempt at volumetric highlights and NMM. Happy about the overall look, but unhappy about my choice of light placement. It looks off.)

- The true metallic colors by Vallejo are truly good.
- The wash is super-powerful (i.e. I used too much and the whole thing is way too dark)
- Never ever be as stupid as me and start putting down grass before the paint on the mini is dry 😓

I allowed myself to subscribe to the new Age of Sigmar partworks magazine, but only if I kept up with the painting. Before the next delivery, the previous one must be painted. Due to how I subbed, I got six magazines at once, so I have 13 miniatures to paint before the end of May in addition to my normal painting plans. Quick and a little dirty, but that's the first 8 done.

I'm still struggling to find my footing here on Mastodon. A bit with the platforms and tags, but mostly finding people to follow. I'm a bit all over the place, posting about my #writing, be it academic or fiction (mostly #SciFi), and about cool #Science I ran into, and the more common than it should be - complain about stuff.
I'm interested in #SFF, #publishing, #MiniaturePainting, science, #queer culture, academia, human sexuality, geekish humor, #comics & #EarthSci.
Recommend people to me!

Just spent the afternoon deep in the details of miniature painting—there's something uniquely grounding about bringing tiny worlds to life one brushstroke at a time. 🎨✨ Really feeling the value of slowing down today. What are you all working on right now? #MiniaturePainting #Creativity #SlowLiving

Just finished a painting session on some miniatures—there’s something so therapeutic about tiny details and steady hands. 🖌️✨ Trying to bring a little more color into my little corner of the world. What’s everyone else working on today? #MiniaturePainting #CreativePlay #DeepFocus

Last mini for the month is also my entry to the OnTableTop community painting challenge for February. I picked the theme of Olympian cos I thought I was being right clever but here I am, in the final hours of the final day, racing to finish. Wasn't feeling my own theme but this fantastic sculpt from Trish Carden is gorgeous. Painting is going to be off for the next few days as I've got DIY to do which is both sad and exciting.

Been painting the minis from #shadowsofbrimstone Swamps game over the last two days. Got the heroes done. 6 tentacles almost complete.
Great game. Think Warhammer Quest + Cthulhu + Wild West.
Started the HUGE Demon tonight. Oh boy. Nice model. Going to think about those rotten leathery wings for a while. Settled on Necrotic Flesh for the body, and Blood Red horns, on the basecoating.
May try bone and very light beige colouring. Will be checking out some other painters’ treatment of undead/demonic wings for ideas.

The Ten Commandments of Miniature Painting are
-
thou shalt always strive to not self-deprecate
-
thou shalt be proud of thine Good Works, for they are truly Good Works
-
thou shalt bestow on the work of others, regardless of skill level, compliments (just find something they did well) or emoji such as heart (any colour), heart-eyes et cetera, or other affirmation
(1/3)
