r/Haloflashpoint

Without trauma dumping, I recently had a drastic change of circumstances in which a round the world cycle trip was ended due to a car accident and I’ve spent the last week at home slowly healing from my injuries. One of the things I would fantasise about whilst being on the road for months was playing Halo and just switching my brain off.

Now that my mobility is limited for a while I jumped into halo flashpoint as something creative to paint up whilst slowly getting better. It’s done absolute wonders for my mental health. I haven’t painted a miniature in years and a fractured wrist means my hands a bit unsteady at the moment but I’ve loved every minute of it.

On a side note, if anyone’s in the north west of England and knows of any communities to play in, please do let me know!

Nothing else to add other than positivity and appreciation for what to me anyway, seems like one of the most positive online communities in tabletop gaming.

After finishing the brawler about a year ago, I put this fire team on pause for a long time. Working on different projects and overall improving my painting skills, I finally decided to finish this somewhat forgotten project. I forgot how "gummy" some of the details on this first few sculpts were. They needed some good work on them before even putting paint on them (and even after). The deadeye's right back leg armor was completely misshapen and I didn't notice it until I had put some good hours on him so I had to free hand the details. From a far it looks fine, but once you really look into it you can notice that they is almost not coherent texture on that part of the model. However, I'm really happy with how these guys turned out; they really helped me improvise on the fly and improve my brush control and free handing skills. I'll probably tweak the deadeye's camo to make it a little more readable but besides that this fire team is done. Unto the next!

I printed battle damaged warthog with changeable turrets.

Hey friends! I just started getting into this game. I bought the box when it released back in 2024. I just opened it last week and decided I wanted to try my hand at painting (im not very artsy)

After watching hours of paint vidz while I waited for my paints to come. I finally got to try and omg it was terrifying!

But here are my first two models ever! I used the Army painter speed paint after priming totally white. I had some citadel shade color a friend let me borrow called agrax earthshade buts thats it!

My hand slipped on the blue guy when adding the wash can ya tell! I went way lighter on the wash with my red spartan. I still very much like them and now just need to learn how to base!

If you have any tips you think i might like as i start into this journey let me know! Thank you and i look forward to being part of the community!

I mean they're both white and gold, and I am 100% certain that I used the same black and blue paints but People keep telling me that they're different colours! Can someone tell me that I am right and they're wrong?!

Haven’t played any games yet but I just picked up the ODST expansion, these are my first flashpoint models, excited to tackle the rest!

Finally started working on my Brutes
