Mimicry

Painting of a Japanese red-crowned crane with water reflecting the warm twilight sky in the background.

A first attempt at acrylic markers. I used dark-purple in the plumage for a lack of better dark colors. It did turn out kinda pretty though. So... a happy accient?

I don't have that. Maybe it's a France thing. Or bsky thinks you're in the UK.

I consider you a master rigger.
But I know what you feel.
If you can, talk to irl outsiders. Family, friends, normies. How many of them could be a Twitch streamer? Or learn how to rig?
The skills you lament not having mastered – the average person out there has not even *tried*.
You can do this!

Hi!
You asked for ways to get into mini painting.
I bought a Stormcast Eternals Paints Set years ago and really liked it! It has normal paints, but also metallics, a wash and a special paint for creating texture. It is designed specifically for beginners and comes with official video guides on YT!
