Early Access Turtle Clan Daimyo

This guy has taken days to paint and edit but here he is finally! I will be painting the Turtle Clan first, starting with the Daimyo!

Hope you like him! Was a big change from the giant dragon before, and moving back to an Oni before the next clan member. Of course, even before him you'll see my first Rise of Moloch miniature p...

Slightly early access to Rise of Moloch video.

Since this is a hot item for you guys I decided to post this a bit early to Patrons. Being just 1 guy with a full time job, large family and 3+ videos a week means I'm never ahead so don't ever expect regular videos early, but here's one 12 hours early for ya! :D

Look what was on my doorstep today!

So a little story here: CMON contacted me out of the blue and told me how much they've been enjoying my videos. They then said they wanted to send this to me as a gift! Core box only but excited that this allows me to paint these guys with you as I know several of you are expecting this soon.

What miniature should I paint firs...

Upcoming Content + Giveaway/Patreon Update

Hey all!

As you can see, I've been busy painting something a bit smaller than a dragon for the next video :) Painting this small made me realize I need to replace my worn brushes so ordered some new ones. I should have this guy posted on Wednesday. End of week painting should be of a larger guy again ;)

As for Patreon, w...

Here's what I'd like to see.

A community page full of just that, a community. What are you working on, what inspires you, are you stumped and need some ideas? This hobby, from miniatures to upcoming game releases and Kickstarters to methods of storing components is full of excuses to relate and share with one another.

I'd love to see where you are at with...

Poor Earth Dragon :(

So my first time playing Rising Sun and we notice this defect on the Earth Dragon. First time I've seen something like this, especially from CMON but I already have a replacement on it's way, they were super chill about sending a replacement. Looks like the plastic wasn't hot enough at the end and simply Simi melted into his sho...

1,000 subscribers!

Thank you for your support here and on Youtube! This is just the beginning and I look forward to seeing this post at the year's end to see how far we've grown! Considering I got here in 3 months from absolutely nothing, I can't wait to see what the big milestone is next!

Big things are afoot behind the scenes that I can't give...

First Oni finished!

Here he is! This might be one of my favorite miniatures (not to paint, I'll speak to that in the video). Design wise though, he is absolutely amazing!

In Spite of everything, this Oni is almost done.

The Oni if Spite is more difficult than I first imagined, but well worth it and doesn't require a lot of paints. Hoping to finish him up today!

March Patreon Vote!

I thought it'd be nice to paint a Rising Sun tribe for my Patreons, so the vote here is for the order in which they are painted.

I will paint the top two in March! Vote choices are listed in order of the picture, left to right.

Godzilla is coming!

Just a sneak peak of some upcoming content ;) you should expect to see him THIS WEEK!

Painting Guides

Hey all. I just wanted to let you know that I while I am lagging behind in creating the painting guides they will be created and posted soon(ish). I always want to focus on putting out content and have been quite busy attempting to go all out and post 3 miniature painting videos a week. This takes a TON of time but with Stuffed ...

Theadora Painting Guide

This is it, my first painting guide! It ended up being 6 pages long! I hope you enjoy it and find it useful. If you have any feedback I'd love to hear it!

Sneak Peek of Theadora's Painting Guide

Hey all! The video has been uploaded but as this is my first time (and this takes some time to actually put together) I do not have the painting guide quite set up yet. I am working on it right now however, and will have it uploaded soon. Since this takes effort to put together and hopefully look nice I will be putting it behind...

The fabled minis

Here's a sneak peek of the actual finished mini. This was my first time freehanding anything (the stars on the base) and I think something like this is actually perfect for a first try as I didn't want it perfect but instead "cartoony" so a quick, rough freehand works perfectly and will hopefully help build confidence!

Also, t...

Lots of new colors in this one

Look at all those paints used! Just need to base her and perhaps work on fixing her eyes some more. Glad my paints came in so I could start this project up again!

Time to ramp up production

The first batch of paint finally arrived! I've had $60 worth of paint in various stages of shipping for some time now and it's been holding up my painting plans. I have painting projects schedule out through the end of March with the next 6 fully planned out paint/technique wise. This shopping, while convenient and cheaper, has ...

A little about the recent changes to Youtube Monitization

Hi all. I wanted to get my thoughts out there and hopefully inform those that might not be aware of where Youtube currently stands for monetizing views.

In light of the Logan Paul incident where he showed a real dead body on Youtube they have decided to tighten the rules on who can and cannot be monetized. Now, regardless of w...

Patreon Excluive: Miniature collection and first painted mini!

Hey all! This is my first Patreon exclusive video and a very "down to earth" behind the scenes/extra. Here you can see all of the miniatures I have as well as my very first painted miniatures!

I'd love to see your first miniature as well or perhaps what your "collection" looks like!

Ghoul Paint List

I really enjoyed highlighting this guy! A very well made model with more personality than I first thought looking at him. Also super easy paint list and it's actually pretty hard to mess up his skin. Just make it nasty!

February Vote!

Cast your vote for the Voters Choice in February! Check the attached image for the models in question (they are in order of the poll).

Some information on the minis:

The Goblin Warrior Boss has one of my favorite capes in the back and a really cool, non silver sword.

The Weretiger is a freaking tiger. Cool excuse t...

I TOLD EVERYONE THAT WOULD LISTEN AND THEY DIDN'T LISTEN!

Before I even backed the KS for Massive Darkness I my coworker was showing me the miniatures on the KS page and I spent my time discussing and critiquing them. This one I instantly pointed to and proclaimed for all those smart enough to listen (just him, reluctantly) that he would break because it's so small.

In all honesty th...

Ogre Shaman Paint List

Here's the Paint list for the Ogre Shaman. Also for some fun backstory: I accidentally made his video public about a week ago. I quickly caught my mistake and put him as private. When making him public again today there was no notification sent out to subscribers so I quickly re-uploaded the video, only for it to fail about 1.5 ...

Fallout Review

It's late (1am) but I just got done filming my Fallout review!  My hope is to edit it up quickly and get it published tomorrow, making it my second full game review.

My hope is that I keep improving that like I do my painting, but 2 isn't enough to tell well :) As always, I appreciate feedback!

Poor napkin

Time to retire this napkin. It served well but is now too old for continued use. It will be missed! :)

Brotherhood Outcast Paint List

Here is the list of paints I used for the Brotherhood Outcast in Fallout. I had a ton of fun painting this guy not only for the pure geek value but because it was also my first foray into modern/sci-fi painting.

Zoe Paint List

Here is the paint list I used for Zoe.

Peek at the Brotherhood Outcast

He's coming along great and is super quick to paint up with weathering taking the longest time. Still more to do in that regard but honestly you could leave him here and be fine. This is my first non-fantasy figure painting in over a decade so let me know what you think :D

Upcoming Content

Hey guys! As you might have guessed, the 5 Fallout minis will be covered on the channel. I will start with the T-60 Power Armor and then do the Goul. This will be IN ADDITION to my Massive Darkness paintings so no lost coverage there :) It's a lot of work for 1 dude but I'm happy to sit down and paint them!

Additionally, HATE ...

Final Tease

This is a WIP picture. A this point she had all the base colors down and just needed a LOT of highlighting, especially on her skin to bring the color back to where it should be.

Additionally I had to finish the base and I was very surprised by just how much texture paint was needed, I'll have to buy a new pot soon! I think the...
