It occurs to me that everyone else talks about method and style with mini painting, and while I’d never claim to be an expert I do practice a fairly unique style that I like to call “my fucking best”

Generally this involves assembling models multiple times in dry fit before flying anything together. It’s rare I will make on model “perfect” and more commonly Ill shoot for overall balance of “good enough” across the board.

After everyone’s pulled themselves together and I’ve pulled my glued fingers apart and cleaned all the bits of skin off the models, then I hit everyone with an overall black coat.

With special care to get up skirts and into armpits, cracks and crevices. I used to use rustoleum but now I use the airbrush black primer that came with my airbrush (heaven help me when it runs out).

Following that I swap to white and it them again from an upward angle downward. I’ve been told this is technically called a “Zenithal highlight” but I prefer call it “pretty fucking cool” since I don’t support Robert Zenithal and his position on the great Hegemon or his opinions on tree dwelling elves.

If this get single like then I’ll be back with these guys probably tomorrow once the primer is proper cured to do one or two of em in color.

So I like to use army painters speedpaint. I lucked into it because the first paint set I got for Christmas a few years back was the battletech speedpaint and it let me do “good enough” without being frustrated with early failures, theoretically here soon I’m going to plateau and have to actually learn how to use normal acrylics but rn I’m having a nice time.

I find it easiest to paint from light to dark because it lets me cover up my mistakes with later darker layers. I also like to use brighter more primary colors for base uniforms because it makes the more muted details pop more and also because otherwise I’d paint everything grimblack

I like to layer similar colored (both of these have three different dark blues on different components) paints on different parts of the model because I feel it breaks up the “space marine effect” without relaying on garish clashing colors and ads depth to the model. but other than that I have no commentary on color theory other than to have fun with it.

I forgot most of my muted detailing paint and also all my washes so it looks like I’m doing a part 3 on finishing later.

big fan of when voice actors have the free will to just say whatever they want in character voice and use it frequently so the fanbase get all these inexplicable clips of their favorite characters quoting memes. more voice actors should do this forever and ever.

Love a character who is neither trustworthy nor untrustworthy but another secret third thing.

"I often talk about reality checking and going along with it when helping someone deal with delusions, but I felt as if I didn’t really make it clear to what I meant when I said it.

Recently I saw a post similar to “how to sneakily give your delusional friend a reality check when they told you not to” and honestly, that’ll just make us lose trust for you. Because we can tell when you do that."
