very proud of this plague marine i’ve painted!

tried to do a blood splatter effect on this plague marine, love how it turned out! :)

(also wasn’t sure how to label this right, so i’ve just put “gore” since there’s blood)

Trying some osl lightning on this awesome academic bust [wip]

Another bust from Asa Sculpts.

On this one i wanted to step up my painting game and try something new, something that will break my brain) almost all the time i paint simple "Studio" kind of light, now it's time to challenge myself.

Will make some touches later but as it's a learning tool - i will not smooth it all around. Got my lesson and can move on. That was fun

ps i've got only one wip photo

So a little video of where I am for now.

Smooth the uncloaked ship parts and add a few blurry stars and then some minor work on a few parts of the space parts.

Huron Blackheart from WH40k

Spent quite a long time on this one, I underestimated how much time to spend on final refinement..

My first miniature painted

So this is the start of my journey. Since me and my friends already have hero quest figures I decided to paint them. I bought some starter kits with colours and brushes. What do you thing about my first figure painted? Also any tips appreciated. (I find hero quest figures very small and hard to paint. I really want to get into warhammer. Are those easier or harder?)

My first bigger mini (Canoptek Doomstalker)! Looking for future advice.

Hello! I've finished painting Combat Patrol, I am enjoying hobby and trying to learn more. I am looking for tips with my paint choice. I am using Caliban Green as my base and Warpstone Glow as edge highlight, I am learning layering and in this miniature I used 1:1 mix of warpstone glow and caliban green, however I'd like to increase contrast and make my results more replicable for the army. What paints can I use to help? I was thinking moot green but I am afraid it's too bright. Also any other tips are welcome.

First time trying a plasma effect

I don’t hate it but i feel like it looks a bit cartoonish. How would you make it look more realistic?

Looking for suggestions on painting uniform circles.

I'm making some spherical buildings, and I want to paint on some circular windows. I tried using a q-tip but they came out in odd shapes. Paint brushes can get the circle shape and I hole punched a template but the paint seeps under and smears or can't be positioned.

Any suggestions?

WIP- Chaplain as Test of textures

I wanted to test different materials on the same miniature. Letting look the fabric like something silky, leather as natural as possible and the paper as well.

I am not so happy with the fabric, feeling it needs more highlights to produce a silky texture.

Every advice is happily taken.

The second picture shows a little bit of my progress. I used an airbrush for the transitions.

Purple oil wash has really brought out the dimensions in the models!

As in title. I've been practicing on the sword but it just keeps turning out like crap. What's going wrong?

Meat Cape for the Meat Elf (WIP)

I'm painting this cheap resin Elf as a paint study for a larger model I'm going to start on soon that features a lot of flayed gory skin. Ive been layering different thinned speedpaints to create the mottled red and purple tones and then a delightful Delta Ceramcoat paint called "Santa's Flesh" to do the highlights. I lay down the thinned speedpaints, let them settle, then smosh it with a damp brush to create the thin lines of deeper color and to randomize things further.
