So the grandparents picked up the kid from kindergarten today and I may or may not have spent pretty much all day just painting. A bit messier than I'd like, but the plan is to rust and dirty them up anyway so I don't mind, trusting the process! All in all, a LOT got painted today as well as last night. Next up are rust, oil washes and highlights!

I'm a big fan of small worlds 😊
I took these photos at Miniaturland #Leer last week. There, the entire region of #EastFrisia (as well as Ammerland and the German capital Berlin) is displayed on a scale of 1:87. The exhibition area covers more than 1,500 square metres. Buttons can be pressed at various points to provide entertainment. For example, a cruise ship moves towards a harbour and fireworks go off, or photographers snap a group of cyclists taking part in a race. And yes, there are also some ‘naughty’ movements in the undergrowth.
The #Ostfriesland hall is illuminated in green, which makes this region look even more inviting 😊 If you like, click through the pictures, explanations can be found in the alt text.

Sometimes you paint something and it turns out so good you impress youself! Still a long way to go, but the skin tones turned out great. And it only took about 2.5 hours for around 25 of them! I might do some highlighting towards the end, but these work fine for me as they are.

@nerdlings, I have a hive mind question

I've got these Giant Hands for a #BloodBowl team #horror project - a golem team consisting of 4 flesh golems, and 4 patchwork-men, which are basically people stitched together like fleshies but not as hench (skinny golems?). (The team also needs zombies but they're plentiful!)

Does anyone here know of suitable #miniatures for this, preferably going together well? Physical or STL doesn't matter.

Thanks! #DTA #Nerdlings #wargaming #miniature RT=♥️

Trying a new #speedpaint approach. Black primer, base, wash, finer & finer dry brush, then #contrastpaint

True metal #slapchop?

What do you think? One stand out? All ? None?
