Early release!

Enjoy this early release video where I attempt to paint something photo realistically.

Stream VOD!

Painting more of this character from Cursed City! The stream broke down midway through, so I made a playlist of the two parts put together. Enjoy!

Livestream VOD!

Did some experiments with this Hasslefree miniature and a limited color palette. Enjoy!

QULATHIS SUPERCUT

Enjoy a bit of extra insight and video footage of the Qulathis paint job, if you're interested. I did talk quite a bit about the painting process in the video itself, but there's always more to say.

I'm a painty boy, in a painty world BTS #90

I painted a decent amount in the last week or so.

As you all know, I painted Qulathis the Exile from the Cursed City box and made a video about it. I was really happy with the outcome of this paint job. I felt I was able to leverage green on virtually every part of the model in a variety of ways and st...

Livestream VOD - Glaurio from Cursed City!

I started painting up this mini on a whim on stream after asking my chat to vote on what they wanted me to paint, and having their answer greatly displease me XD 

Early release video! WOOD ELVES!

As I say in the video, I'm pretty happy about the result I got on this paint job. I haven't felt like this in a while about something I've painted, so we doing good over here!

Nothin' But Paintin' BTS #89

Like a lot of people, I picked up Cursed City this past weekend and have been painting up the beautiful Wood Elf inside the box. 

There have been so many thoughts floating through my head while painting this model so allow me to vomit them all out onto this BTS post. 

1. I've definitely said this before about potentially any hue, but when we think of green as individuals, usuall...

Livestream VOD! Zombie Dragon Oil Wash, Round 2!

Did a payne's grey oil wash on the skin of my zombie dragon and after all the dust settled...I really liked the result!

SUPER CUT!

Enjoy this more technical/explanatory dive on how I painted Fayde.

Woodelf and Killteam Progress BTS #88

The wood elf models are moving along swimmingly. The "Warrior" and "Witch" concept are having their cut lines defined and also problematic areas identified. 

Something I identified about the cut lines we determined with this model is that it won't have the head removable from the body. We discussed this, and decided that it would be good if the head was removed for ease of painting. To get...

Early release video!

Not a particularly special video but I was feeling really grateful for my community and wanted to give back in whatever small way I could with this viewer feedback video. Next video I'm working on is called "You Can't Make This Terrain" and it's all about pulling out ALL the stops I have for making the best, banger piece of terrain. 

Live stream VOD!

Did some dragon flesh basecoating, some fog machine shenanigans, and more!

Early release video!

This is a video I've wanted to make for a while. It's a little untraditional for me (which seems to be a thing lately). Hope you enjoy it, despite that. It's also my first video in 4k resolution. Enjoy!

Stream VOD!!

I attempted to paint fire and Jon assembled stuff, sorry I didn't upload sooner!

More 3D designs and Painting Progress! BTS #87

What up, mini family?!

As per usual, I've been painting miniatures. I'm working on that video game centric video that I've discussed here previously. 

I am definitely taking my time with this paint job which was one thing I wanted to do with the change in my release schedule. From a technical aspect, I am enjoying the results I am getting with this model. As for an artistic aspect, n...

Livestream VOD!

Did some oil experiments with this session!

Woodelf Update! BTS #86

Hello, mini family!

Apologies I skipped last week's BTS post. I was exclusively editing the Kill Your Friends episode that published today. I actually hadn't painted any miniatures until my stream last Friday; it was a somewhat weird experience. Anyways, as some of you know I'm working on a couple wood elf characters and currently am working on the witch character. I was recently given full renders of the whole character and that's pretty exciting!

It's finally done....

After 3 years of thinking, building, planning, painting, practicing, shooting, and editing...it's finally done. Not to sound sentimental, but I've always wanted my channel to be more than exclusively painting stuff, and this is the first step into something bigger. Obviously I can't make this kind of content super frequently, but I love everything about this hobby and I want to to reflect that. Enjoy!!!

Live Stream VOD 3/12/2021

Another duo stream with Jon where I worked on finishing a vampire lord and starting on a dragon, and Jon assembled some creature caster minis!

Sneak peak of Kill Your Friends, and I need your help

So I've been hard at work editing the first pilot episode of Kill Your Friends, a gaming series on my channel that I hope to continue in the future. The edit is taking a while because there's a lot of fiddly stuff to do, but I want some feedback from you. My goal with this video series is to portray the friendships that are cultivated through games while also explaining the game and giving some minor tactical insight all the while not boring you. I'd love for you to read the section below her...

Live stream vod!

This time Jon was hanging out and Amber made an appearance in the last hour of the stream, enjoy!

Livestream VOD!

Forgot to post up this VOD when I streamed last Wednesday! Enjoy!

Hobby Hangouts, Conversions and more! BTS #85

What up, mini family?! 

Last week I was working on a conversion for a collab with jazza and emil. I'm happy to say that I've completed the conversion!

There's a lot of different materials in this project like green stuff, milliput, brass, styrene, and obviously plastic. I think it looks a little crazy and might not paint up that well, but it's always good to test your limitations and push boundaries. That's how we get better! I'...

Conversions, camera gear, and 3D prints!

What up, mini family?! If you've been watching my recent vlog series, you'll know that I was working on a pie slice shaped plinth for an upcoming tag team display diorama that I'll be doing with Sam, Vince, and Jon. I was finally able to get the right hole size and now I can proceed printing out the other 3! 

On the side, I've been working on a conversion for a collaboration with Jazza and...

Livestream VOD!

This was a really fun stream, enjoy. I finished up the Bloodknight unit too!

The fifth and final VLOG

It was a ride, but we got there in the end. Challenging and fun project. Thanks for humoring me, team.

3 outta 5 done!

I'm on a roll, baby! Do you like the freehand?

And another one!

2 down, 3 to go! AIN'T NO ONE GONNA STOP ME!

A video that's a little different

Let me know what you guys think. I'm not going to exclusively make content like this. I just always enjoy experimenting with format and I was up for the challenge of making 5 videos in 5 days.
