Pride On Parade

If you're interested in painting this or any of our other miniatures (see the pinned post for a list) please get in touch!

If none of you #Nerdlings fancy trying to fix the Lichemaster's staff, I might be able to help- I enjoy this kind of modelling challenge :)

Please share these posts as well!

Classic original 1980s Warhammer Fantasy Necromancer Heinrich Kemmler "The Lichemaster" metal miniature with staff tip missing. Also suitable for AoS/Age of Sigmar.

Another classic #OldHammer mini from our library!

This classic 1987 (I think?) Heinrich Kimmler, courtesy of @brickie78.bsky.social, is a fantastic opportunity to paint a real piece of #Warhammer history! The end of his staff is missing, which could be a fun challenge for an aspiring modeller.

That's f**king awesome, I absolutely love it. The colour depth is great, the freehand work is really really nice, everything about it rules :)

holy crap, this rules! Seriously, this is so awesome :) Check out this lovely paintwork from @stardustrgb.bsky.social !

Haha you already know I've loved where this has been going the entire time and it's really starting to come into focus :) lovely work!

Void Nymphs Lieutenant, I'm working on her final edge highlights. Close to finishing and then need to get them on the right base. Had very little time to paint recently but I'm really happy with this so far @prideonparade.bsky.social #pridehammer #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #prideonparade #lgbt

Oh wow, those crests are glorious! Nice work!

The two Excarchs in white, blue, yellow, and rainbow helmet plumes with pink back banners displaying a heart & sword logo in front of #JHBackdrops

The full squad in white, blue, yellow, and rainbow helmet plumes in front of #JHBackdrops - gonna need a bigger backdrop book!

Overhead shot of the squad + tokens. Gonna need a bigger plinth!

The finished squad on the workbench

Inspired by @prideonparade.bsky.social for #prideonparade, I've gone DEEP into FULL GAY for these Dire Avengers. Not my favorite models, but fun to finish out once the idea hit!

Oh that's nice! Thanks for sharing your work :)

Anyway, sans terrifying holster, the bi representation in my Star Nebula Corsairs is done?

#PrideOnParade #Nerdlings

The back of a space pirate miniature. On their holster is a tiny little progress flag.

Seven more unpainted holsters/guns, in 3 different shapes.

Word of advice for any #PrideOnParade participants:
Deciding to do the Progress Flag on, for instance, holsters, as a unifying detail, is a great idea on paper, until you realize you need to do another 7 of them at least. It's a tricky thing to paint small. 😅

That subtle metallic Pride chromatic is really, really nice :)

POP Available Miniatures Collection

Glad to see they arrived OK and I'm looking forward to seeing them painted up :)

If anyone else would like to paint a bit of 40K history, we have a whole selection of mins available- the full list is here:

The Might of the Guard knows no limitations.

Reinforcements come to the pure of spirit.

@prideonparade.bsky.social has a wonderful collection of minis they are willing to donate for donations to the Mermaids Charity.

Get involved if you can.

100% approve :)

Ooh, nice!

I kinda always wanted to put together a Tallarn force :)

Also you don't need to be super good to do a thing! We've got some 3E Guardsmen in the collection that need a bit of rescuing if you'd like to just take part!

I did see the snarky alt text!

I think everybody had That Eldar Player at our local gaming store in the late 90s & early 2000s and I absolutely do know what you mean though.

It was pretty fun playing 'em using Templars with a Blessed Hull Land Raider when the 4th Ed codex came out :P

Honestly I'd probably take the Eldar. As with a lot of others here, they're one of the armies I don't have enough of.

If you want to paint some old metal though, we've got a bunch in our collection!

POP Available Miniatures Collection

If you want to paint any of these or any of the other minis we have available (see list) please get in touch! I can send them to you in exchange for a donation to Mermaids plus postage.

I know the plastic parts shown are all 3rd Edition but I do have some earlier plastics available if you'd prefer!

Photo of seven Warhammer 40,000 miniatures. These are metal Rogue Trader era metal Space Marines from the Space Wolves chapter, originally released in 1993. On the left is a single Long Fang with helmet off, and on the right are two rows of three Wolves from the Blood Claws box set. Each row is three of the same sculpt.

This is a close up shot of the Long Fang from the previous photo, pictured with a number of plastic accessories. The plastic parts are all 3rd Edition Warhammer 40,000 but the mini can also be supplied with earlier plastic parts for a more authentic period look.

This is a close shot of one of the sets of three Marines (all of the same sculpt), shown alongside some 3rd Edition plastic parts. These can be supplied with earlier plastics for a more authentic look.

This photo shows the other set of three Marines (the alternate sculpt), again shown with 3rd Edition plastic parts.

Space Wolves! Another gem in the #PrideOnParade library is this squad of Wolves. I think the "Sergeant" is a 1993 Long Fang, while the other sculpts are both from the '93 Blood Claw box? If one of you #Nerdlings would like to paint a piece of 40K history, let me know!

#WarhammerCommunity

I love it :) They look so good!

A space marine, painted in the colours of the asexual pride flag: black for trims and the backpack, grey for the pauldrons and gun casing, white for the helmet and aquila, and purple for the rest of the armour. All other pictures are the same model, viewed from different sides.

The same model again, this time displaying the right pauldron, with the iconography of a veteran, and a scroll displaying the name, “Ace”.

Back of the backpack is visible, displaying a white skull. As well, the left pauldron is shown, with the simple ring icon of asexuality.

Front face of the marine.

I’ve been busy and also feeling very meh the last few weeks/months, but that Termagant mod I did last week got me back into painting! Here’s Ace the Veteran, for the project @prideonparade.bsky.social

My Void Nymphs Lieutenant now has her shield and powerback all layered up. The halo broke off and needed repair. Going to see if it holds or further surgery is required. @prideonparade.bsky.social #pridehammer #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #prideonparade #lgbt. Now I can start the highlights.

That rules :)

Been too ill to paint recently but I did do some last night for the first time in about 2 weeks. My Void Nymphs Lieutenant is coming together nicely. Just finishing layering up the shield and power pack @prideonparade.bsky.social #pridehammer #nerdlings #warhammercommunity #prideonparade #lgbt

It's already looking good :)
