What do you guys think?

Edit; girlfriend painted this, sorry for the confusing wording!

I haven't finished the other arm, no idea if I'm going for the machine gun or the plasma cannon

I don’t have a name for her yet. I know she’s not that great please be kind.

I am happy to post here the album of my painted Goblin army. This was my army project in my 20s. Now I am working on a Dwarf army since a few years, but I recently made the photos of this army. Maybe some here appreciate the pictures.

The minis are mainly Citadel and Harlequin models, that you probably know.

I also sculpted many models myself by hand and even in 3D (like the squig) or did a kitbash (like the purple sun)

I hope you like them!

Trying to get back into painting some 40K after focusing on other things. The Sons of Dorn will forever have my heart though!

Hello,

New painter here trying to gauge how much dry brushing is needed for speed/contrast painting. I did a few passes with a light grey base from citadel and then also a pass with pro acrylic titanium white.

Should I add more white?

OK, the point here is: Why do all my models end up having such a sandy look? It's like you can see the brush strokes and/or the pigment, not sure whether it makes any sense. I see other people uploading photos of their models, and they look much more clean, neat, with sharp lines and uniform surfaces. Where's my mistake?

I painted a small space marine. Not advisable if you value your sanity and your sight.

Next up is priming the base and blending the legs. Hope you like him (c&c welcome)

This is my version of Edward Delandre's really cool Black Templar oil painting, showing the size difference between a marine and a normal guardsman.
Required a bit of kitbashing and some frankly awful green stuff sculpting and filling on my part. Obviously the scale isn't quite the same as in the painting and my phone doesn't take terribly great photos so proper perspective was hard to capture, but I hope you enjoy!

I'm trying to knock out 1 model a night from a black primer to finished and varnish. Hope this makes me a faster painter without sacrificing quality too much. And it's alot of fun!

To get right to it, I'm nearly finished this model and I'm pretty happy with most of it, first attempt at yellow skin and the nmm sword which I know both could be better but sure we'll do better next time.

What's bugging me is the pink robe and bow thingy on her back I can't quite get them how I'd like, the robe I'm aiming for something more silky and the bow I haven't really touched but I was thinking more fluffy? I'd appreciate any feedback, particularly if you can point me to a video tutorial.

Midguard miniatures; Madame Yokai is the mini

Found this beautiful sculpt on Etsy and knew I immediately needed it for my shark man barbarian for D&D! It's been a very fun process and I am very proud of how the anchor and freehand on the back came out. Happy to hear any feedback!

These were my first ever painted minis. I dabbled in wet blending, formed a couple things in milliput for the first time to sculpt some teeth to put on the horn and a little scull shaped brooch on one of the shoulders that didnt get captured in the photos. In general, i just tried to have fun with it. I have gotten better since and I have a couple more units of these that I can't wait to experiment on again to see how much I have improved in the last 2 or so years.

It's not the full unit. I let my 8 year old paint the last model. It doesn't quite match the quality of these 😂

I used aquarium rocks, made some bones and mushrooms out of milliput for the base, and felt for a moss like texture.

Gave my all for Eavy metal this time.

This is the third mini I painted, it’s fdm printed. I have no idea what i’m doing and I do think that the mini is smaller than usual, I don’t have any mini that is in the right 32mm scale as reference. Took me almost 2hrs to paint. Happy to receive any feedbacks.

I am stoked on how this turned out.Wish i got to keep it haha! Really enjoyed painting this model
