Likely my last post for a while: Archangel Avacyn, from the Magic: The Gathering line by WizKids. Painted for a friend. #magicthegathering #nolzursmarvelousminiatures #WizKids #wizkidsminiatures #tabletoprpg #rpg #dnd5e

Oof. Rough day. Anyone looking to hire a former product manager/RPG designer/worldbuilder/writer/editor/narrative designer/miniature artist?

It's #MCPFriday, so you get Black Widow! This is actually my repaint of her. I hated how her hair came out originally (very "circus clown"), so I used Reaper's "red hair triad" to touch her up. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #atomicmassgames #MarvelCrisisProtocol #MCPFriday

Thursday throwback: Greybark's Woodland Host. I got these in the 90s, IIRC. They came in a boxed set, and I let them languish way too long before I decided to just dive in, about four years ago. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #harlequinminiatures

WIP for a Wednesday: the same Hobgoblins from last week, from Pathfinder Battles Deep Cuts I ended up being very busy over the weekend, and barely got a chance to touch these until last night. Apologies for the photos. So potato. Much wow. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wizkids #pathfinder

Terrain for Tuesday: the APC from Ender Toys "broken vehicles" bundle. Unsurprisingly, this piece makes it onto my Marvel Crisis Protocol tables fairly often. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain #endertoys

Some minis I painted a few years back, from the Tales from the Loop board game. #boardgames #talesfromtheloop #FreeLeaguePublishing

Why, yes, it *is* #MCPFriday, and this *is* Viper. I painted her in what turned out to be a really, really quick turnaround, which isn't difficult when you realize she's all shades of green and flesh tones. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #atomicmassgames #MarvelCrisisProtocol #MCPFriday

Thursday throwback: my first WH40K army...or what's left of them, give or take. At the time, these were really just "Imperial Guard," though these might have been early Cadians. (I really haven't kept up.) #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wh40k #gamesworkshop

WIP for a Wednesday: Hobgoblins, from Pathfinder Battles Deep Cuts I've just barely started on these, but my goal is to have them completed by this weekend. There are eight in total, so it's time for assembly-line painting. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wizkids #pathfinder

Terrain for Tuesday: the "Stairway to Nowhere." Back when I was playing Frostgrave fairly often, I made this out of some spare Dwarven Forge bricks I had. I think I've used it a grand total of once. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain #dwarvenforge

Crossbones, from Earth's Mightiest Core Set, for #MCPFriday! I kind of rushed to finish this guy, so I might end up coming back to him later, to add some details to his base. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #atomicmassgames #MarvelCrisisProtocol

Thursday throwback: one of the first minis I ever painted—then and now. I painted this Grenadier Lesser Orc w/Axe in 1978, with enamel paint and Testor's plastic brushes. I painted another one in 2022, to help show new painters that they will get better over time. #minipainting #tabletopgaming

WIP for a Wednesday: Crossbones, from the Earth's Mightiest Core Set. I changed up his core colors a bit, adding a significant amount of Vallejo olive drab to the black for his clothing and mask. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #atomicmassgames #MarvelCrisisProtocol

Terrain for Tuesday: WH40K ruins. These sat on my Shelf of Shame for years before I finally decided to just go ahead and paint them...even though I don't play Warhammer. (They're just handy!) #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain #gamesworkshop

The final March Monday means Malifaux! Week Five: last but not least, Lord Chompy Bits! #Malifaux #tabletopminis #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wyrdgames

It's #MCPFriday, comrade! Colossus says hi. I initially followed the tutorial from @sorastro.bsky.social on this one—mainly for the yellow and red costume bits—then finished with my go-to NMM steel method. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #atomicmassgames #MarvelCrisisProtocol #EpicBasing

A throwback for Thursday: my first competition mini. The rules were you had to paint this specific mini, but you could do whatever you wanted, so long as it fit in the dice box. I added wings and blue horror feet, plus the door. It took first prize! #minipainting #tabletopgaming #gamesworkshop

WIP for a Wednesday: Colossus. I'm basically following the tutorial from @sorastro.bsky.social on this one, with a few little deviations here and there. Additional base bits from #EpicBasing. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #atomicmassgames #MarvelCrisisProtocol

Two for Tuesday! I saw a question about taking photos of minis, so I wanted to share my setup, in case it's helpful to others. 1. Light booth on a raised surface 2. Ring light on a tripod, with a clip for my iPhone 3. Black backdrop (with a lint roller nearby) 4. Adobe Lightroom 5. Final product

Terrain for Tuesday: weathered docks. Another proof-of-concept project. My wife bought this MDF bridge/docks/walkway set for me, and I wanted to try out the "double-salt" technique to enhance the weathering effect. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain

March Mondays mean Malifaux! Week Four: the Dreamer, and Coppelius. #Malifaux #tabletopminis #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wyrdgames

For #MCPFriday: Doctor Octopus, Sinister Scientist! I debated for quite a while how to paint his coat: trench-, or lab-? Then my wife showed me her lab coat, with its distinct lack of belts and buckles. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #marvelcrisisprotocol #atomicmassgames

One last Invincible mini, until the next season starts: Omni-Man. (The mini is "All Dude," from Legion Miniatures.) #minipainting #tabletopgaming #legionminiatures

WIP for a Wednesday: Omni-Man, from Invincible. (The mini is "All Dude," from Legion Miniatures.) #minipainting #tabletopgaming #legionminiatures

Terrain for Tuesday: kitbashed modern scatter. These were part of a proof-of-concept project. I had read about using paper towels moistened with glue/water to simulate canvas, and wanted to try it out. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain

March Mondays mean Malifaux! Week 3: Alps, from the Hide & Seek faction box. #Malifaux #tabletopminis #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wyrdgames

For #MCPFriday: Doctor Octopus! I originally painted him just to get him table-ready, but his tentacles always bugged me. So I pushed the NMM further, and I'm happier with him overall now. Still hate his glasses, though. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #marvelcrisisprotocol #atomicmassgames

It's Thursday—time for this week's episode of Invincible. In honor of last week's episode, I present: Rex Splode. (A.k.a., "Dynamite Dude," from Hardcore Miniatures.) Mainly just small details left to do, so this should be done very quickly. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #hardcoreminiatures

WIP for a Wednesday: Rex Splode, from Invincible. (The mini is "Dynamite Dude," from Hardcore Miniatures.) Mainly just small details left to do, so this should be done very quickly. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #hardcoreminiatures

Terrain for Tuesday: scratch-built palisade walls. I needed crudely-built, modular walls for an RPG session, and made these out of balsa, chew sticks, and cardboard bases. I soaked the wooden parts in a vinegar/steel wool solution to weather them. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain

March Mondays mean Malifaux! Week 2: Daydreams, from the Hide & Seek faction box. #Malifaux #tabletopminis #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wyrdgames

It's #MCPFriday! Today, I present you Baron Zemo. I never saw the appeal of Zemo until I read the original run of Thunderbolts. I'm sorely tempted to pick up the Citizen V version I found on Etsy... #minipainting #tabletopgaming #marvelcrisisprotocol #atomicmassgames

Thursday, so time for Invincible: and I just finished Robot, after starting him yesterday afternoon. (The mini is "Bot," from Hardcore Miniatures.) Hurray for limited-palette characters, or I'd never have finished this before the end of today. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #hardcoreminiatures

WIP for a Wednesday: Robot, from Invincible. (The mini is "Bot," from Hardcore Miniatures.) I've been tied up with other projects lately, but this one should be completely finished in time for tomorrow's new episode. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #hardcoreminiatures

Terrain for Tuesday: Warhammer jungle terrain. These were on my Shelf of Shame for a LONG time. One day I just decided to crank them out as fast as I could, which involved lots of blended contrast paints. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain

March Mondays mean Malifaux! First up: Teddy. Huggable. Unstoppable. Merciless. #Malifaux #tabletopminis #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wyrdgames

A little filler project I did to create scatter for a Marvel Crisis Protocol map: road flares. 20mm WizKids bases, narrow plastic piping, bit of sand, airbrush, and spots of orange, magenta, red, and bright orange paint. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain

Wednesday's WIP is now my #MCPFriday offering: Hawkeye. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #marvelcrisisprotocol #atomicmassgames

A new episode of Invincible means another non-official (but MCP-compatible) mini: Dupli-Kate. Due to a mix-up, I got a spare Kate3 mini...which I adjusted to look like a Kate5. I also used way too much flow improver, so she's...glossy. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #invincible #hardcoreminiatures

WIP for a Wednesday: Hawkeye, for Marvel Crisis Protocol. Just the skin tones for now, but the rest should theoretically go very quickly. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #marvelcrisisprotocol #atomicmassgames

Terrain for Tuesday: a scratch-built fuel storage tank. Most of it is just random junk: a Planter's peanut canister on top of an old CD, with piping made of sprue, and greebles made of a bottle cap, straws, and a model railroad enclosed ladder. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain

Captain Carter, from Trident Studios: a reasonably good proxy for Captain America in a game of Marvel Crisis Protocol. That said: Her shield doesn't really work for me. I'd prefer a version in HIPS, rather than resin. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #marvelcrisisprotocol #tridentstudio

I finished this D&D Nolzur's Marvelous Miniatures Beholder about 8 hours after I posted the WIP photos. (That said: I'm debating whether to add saliva effects to the beholder's mouth.) #nolzursmarvelousminiatures #WizKids #wizkidsminiatures #tabletoprpg #rpg #dnd5e

Marvel Crisis Protocol: Crossbones (and his plus-one). #MCPFriday #minipainting #tabletopgaming #marvelcrisisprotocol #atomicmassgames

It's Thursday, which means a new episode of Invincible...and two more non-official (but MCP-compatible) minis: the Mauler Twins. Now, which one is the clone, again? #minipainting #tabletopgaming #hardcoreminiatures #invincible

A WIP for a Wednesday: A D&D Nolzur's Marvelous Miniatures Beholder, nearly finished. #nolzursmarvelousminiatures #WizKids #wizkidsminiatures #tabletoprpg #rpg #dnd5e

Terrain for Tuesday, from Printable Scenery: the UFO. I painted this up specifically to use in the "Alien Ship Crashes in Downtown!" crisis. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain #printablescenery

A non-official (but MCP-compatible) mini, from C27: Scorpion. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #C27

I picked up a bunch of terrain a while back, including several items from 4Ground (prepainted laser-cut terrain). This is the Mordanburg Backstreet Hovel...a little dolled-up, because I can't *not* add some color, even to prepainted terrain. #minipainting #tabletopgaming #wargameterrain
