a photo of three miniatures - a Thousand Sons sorcerer casting a magic butterfly, a rainbow coloured Mindstealer Sphiranx, and a Great Spirit Longma on a custom diorama background - each with their own GHMX "Category Winner" plaque next to them.

Okay so I am terrible at keeping up with things here, but better late than never, right? 🤣 I was at GHMX last weekend, entered some of my minis into their mini competition, and of the three categories I entered, I won gold in all three :3 I was both surprised and delighted at these results! :D

Don't put down your own work. Plenty of people want to devalue you and the things you Make. Don't help them do it.

Some advice from a couple of years ago that I still think most creative people need to hear --

Just finished my latest commission, this lil guy - Miyamoto, Ronin Kitsune! I really enjoyed doing the snowy woodland base especially. XD Let me know what you think!

Photo of the great spirit longma mini on a custom display base, made to look like a mountain top poking up out of the clouds, with other mountain tops and a couple of sky lanterns in the background. The sky is partially painted. The gaming base of the mini is fully painted in greys, browns and greens to look like weathered, mossy stone tiles and dirt.

Adjusted the backdrop and started painting! probably gonna add a couple of sky lanterns in the background too :D

Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached.

They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others.

Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further.

#UBI doesn’t kill ambition, it frees it.

Anyone else have problems trying to post photos to bsky from their phones? I've tried multiple times and the post never goes through, but it also doesn't give me any kind of error message. Is there some kinda image size limit or something?

A photo of a large grey plastic dragon standing on some ruins, with its wings cupped and one foreleg raised. A broken statue on the base has been customised with wire of various thicknesses to look like it's being hit by a bolt of branching lightning. A photo of a grey plastic gryphon with an armoured and cloaked champion riding it, holding a flaming axe in their left hand.

Here's a couple of my WIPs atm! The lightning for the dragon's base still needs some refining, but overall I'm quite pleased with how it's turning out. I'm also pleased with the tweaks I made to the gryphon model to get this specific head/reins to work with this rider. lmk what you think! :D

A photo of five blue and gold chaos terminators with customised helms, pauldrons, tabards, and chestplate detailing to give them a more Thousand Sons specific style. The bases are customised with greenstuff and painted to have a flowing lava theme.

Here's my very first attempt at customisation with plasticard and greenstuff, a squad of Thousand Sons Terminators! Customised helms, pauldrons, tabards, and chestplate detailing, magnetised arms, custom-made glaives, and greenstuff bases. Still proud of them over a decade later! XD

Here's Pakhet, my pre-heresy Thousand Sons banner bearer! I sculpted her head myself, quite pleased with how it came out given that it was one of my earliest attempts at sculpting a face! #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #warhammer30k

a photo of a mostly assembled heldrake on its flight stand, with a prototype tail mocked up from paper

Planning on adding a scratch-built tail to my heldrake! The joint between neck and body has also been mildly articulated, but I don't think I'll bother doing so with any of the limbs. They'll get glued in after painting (if i ever get that far! 🤣)

photo of a heldrake's head and neck, unassembled, with a connecting piece carved out of sprue photo of a heldrake's head and neck, partially assembled, showing how the connecting piece fits into the neck's hollow ball joint photo of a heldrake's head and neck assembled photo of a heldrake's head and neck assembled, with the head tilted and extended from the neck slightly thanks to the custom connecting piece shown in earlier photos

Assembling a Heldrake for myself, decided to attempt articulating the head a bit! Drilled a couple of holes, carved a connecting piece out of sprue, and it works quite nicely! Reasonable range of motion and it also lets me extend/retract the head a bit. Gonna make painting easier!

Finally getting around to doing a bit of an intro post, so! G'day all, I'm Skits, an ineffable eldritch Aussie abomination. 🤣 I customise and paint minis, both for myself and on commission, and I stream a lot of it on Twitch. I'm always happy to talk hobby and (attempt to) answer questions! 😄
