Completely unrelated to miniatures, I am currently participating in a game of extreme jenga in the office. I place some bricks then an hour or so later go back to the break room and somebody else has taken their turns. Still no idea who I am playing against, but our towers are getting pretty good.

I need to invest in some image stacking software for group shots, but here is the currently painted up Ork force that i have managed to get done, trying to push along and get the rest of them done now. #miniatures #paintingminiatures #40k #orks
Speaking of bust I also printed up a spiderman and tried to fight with my airbrush to get the reds down with limited success. Will switch to traditional brush work now to try to get the reds all highlighted properly #miniatures #paintingminiatures #spiderman
Just realised i didnt post where i got to with the pirate maiden bust. Pretty happy with where is got to as a first pass, but the layer lines are more noticable than i thought when you start looking closely, so not sure i will push it any further than this #miniatures #paintingminiatures
Started painting up the fatemaster, with the schemes i have seen so far incluyding the box art the familiar just blends in to the model, so i decided to make it pop a bit more #paintingminiatures #miniatures #warhammer
Managed to get a 2-0 win with tomb kings against orcs in the league final to retain the league championship. Next onto season three and wood elves to see how I do with the new rule set #bloodbowl
Finished off the Wood Elf blood bowl team to tabletop standard, and switched over to a bust that i may try my best on. Currently just sketching out values, but quite like the 2 colours i have so far. Bust is by 'Nerikson' #miniatures #paintingminiatures
I bought a picture I really like a few years ago at Comic-Con and want to possibly get a second from the same artist, but have no idea who it is. Can anybody help? #art #fantasy
Managed to get another painting session in, and now the team all have skin and hair at least base coated. Now just need to settle on a colour for the shoulder pads then can highlight items up. At least now at the point they can turn up on a pitch if needed #bloodbowl #miniatures #paintingminiatures
Need to practice more on how to take gorup photos, but next seasons team is slowly coming along, just this seasons final to play and i am done with season 2 rules. #bloodbowl #miniatures #paintingminiatures
Dug out my wife's old digital camera, got some black felt and tried to take some better photos of some of my more recent models, like the effect, but does highlight the errors a bit more. #miniatures #paintingminiatures
Took another really good painting lesson with Aaron Clark. This time for NNM. This is the results from the lesson, could be better but learnt a lot. #paintingminiatures #miniatures
Finally got time to sit down and paint a test model up for the elf team I am thinking about running next season. Will do the basing of the whole team at the end. #bloodbowl #miniatures #paintingminiatures
Finally got round to painting up a few more orks. Still not quite worked out how to use the basing sand properly, but happy enough with them for now. #paintingminiatures #orks #40k #miniatures
40K Rogue Trader for me
That’s a good idea. Original colour just looked bad, but I can certainly play with other variations
Decided to go with a more olive tone in the orc skin, prefer it to the richer green colour. Now to do this another 30 times #miniatures #paintingminiatures #orktober
I know that logo!
I now want to play a game with 2 gnome beast masters and 10 copies of Akhorne and see how it performs
Starting to work on the next model for my marines. Given librarians are meant to be blue I just get to switch the primary and secondary colours in my scheme #miniatures #paintingminiatures #40k #spacemarines
Managed to make a bit more progress today with the rest of the pink boy squad, just need to do the detailing and try to work out the army basing scheme. #miniatures #paintingminiatures #spacemarine #40k
Bambu A1 mini with a 0.2mm nozzle
Just realised I neglected to identify the artist here.
Sculpt is by ‘Hexy Studio’ on myminifactory
Took a break from painting marines to print off and paint a werewolf as I need a star player for the next league game #bloodbowl #miniatures #paintingminiatures
So didn’t get much of my own modelling done this weekend, but I did help out my daughter with her Lego city and made a stage for a group to perform on #modelling #lego
Put the first few coats of magenta down on the marines friends. Next up is to start sketching and highlighting up this on all the bodies #miniatures #paintingminiatures
First league game of the season played. My Tomb Kings vs Goblins. Won 3-1 and got 3 casualties for 2 bonus points. Got tackle on blitzer (dodge on goblins was annoying and lizards next). And rolled 2 randoms on skeletons, getting shadowing both times 😭 #bloodbowl
First pass of blending by done and the jump in quality is huge. Just need to decide now how much work to out into it before I consider it done #miniatures #paintingminiatures
Following on from my lesson, I have sketched out the basic colours and placements of highlights for a model prior to blending, trying to decide if the pink needs to go lighter, but generally happy. #miniatures #paintingminiatures
Took my first ever painting class yesterday with Aaron Clark (AC Miniatures) at the Cryptic Cabin. Lesson covered blending and really happy with the result. Would strongly recommend taking a class with him if possible #paintingminiatures #miniatures
