Lunah is my first pin-up model from Kabuki Models. I used her as an opportunity to experiment with purples.
The base was inspired by Jamie/Arithon but I can’t get my camera to pick up the colours correctly. She looks better in my upcoming How to Paint Miniatures – Eyes video.

Here’s my second attempt at filming a model being painted from start to finish. I tried a new camera angle and I think it works better this way. Without further ado, here’s my video of Brave-Mode Candy from Super Dungeon Explore.

This week I finished painting Brave-Mode Candy and since she’s never seen without her pet kitsune, I finished up Never-Lost Cola as well. Candy is the mascot for Soda Pop Miniatures so I wanted to keep to the traditional colour scheme. I did slightly modify her eyes as I believe the pre-sculpted irises have a tendency to give her a cross-eyed look.

When I was painting the Dragon Blade I noticed that he had a tendency to topple backwards due to his heavy, billowing cloak. I thought it would be a good opportunity for me to make a video to show you how I counterweight models so that they don’t fall over and chip their paint.

It’s taken me almost a year but I’ve finally finished my Feral Nyss unit conversion. I was inspired by the updated Privateer Press conversion policy to convert a unit out of a completely different unit. In this case, I tried to make models that capture the spirit of Croak Raiders, but make them Nyss so that they fit better into my Everblight army.
I started with Circle Tharn Bloodtrackers and swapped their heads for Dark Eldar Wych heads. Then I sculpted tiny gourds and flames for their weapons. I hope that the orange wrist/anklewraps and green warpaint helps to tie them to the Croaks even more.

In my latest video, I demonstrate the layering technique. Layering is a highlighting technique which involves manually painting lighter colours over a darker basecoat, leaving the dark colour in the recesses. It results in a smoother finish than drybrushing, so is better for surfaces such as skin and cloth.

The colours in the original card artwork for the Dragon Blade were various hues of blues and greens. I prefer a more limited palate so I tried to mix up a colour between the green and blue and ended up with aqua.
His cloak provided a good opportunity to demonstrate the layering technique for my next video which I’ll be posting next week.
