Since this blog will be my little corner to show off my stuff, I figured I would pepper in some old photos of minis I painted over the last few years. Yesterday's post saw me finishing the first miniature of 2025, so what better place to continue than with what I finished first last year.
Quickbeam the Ent
Quickbeam is part of an ongoing commission for a friend to paint his Lord Of The Rings miniatures; I had already finished him for the most part but actually got to finishing him off in early 2025, adding moss tufts into his roots to make him look more overgrown and adding shrubs and flowers to his base. I sadly forgot to write down how I painted his bark, since to this day I think he is the best looking Ent I have painted.
Wounded Mordians
A few years ago I got hold of these Praetorian Casualties, I actually also picked up some Praetorians, but since I have a full army squad of Mordians and the praetorians are just modified Mordian sculpts, I decided to make these guys Mordians, painting them primarily with the paints from the Nostalgia '94 starter set. If you have never heard of Nostalgia '94, it is a full range recreating the paints Citadel released in 1994 in the large hexagonal pots. I actually wrote a review on them back in 2023 over on Goonhammer if you want to take a closer look at that.
Ever since I occasionally tried to paint full miniatures with just those old paints and these two guys are the most impressive I have pulled off so far I think. Although recently I have tried to pick up more of these paints, since I cannot mix all kinds of paints all the time. If you want to pick up some of these paints and support me, I got an affiliate link for the starter set.
Anyways, these three were the first minis I finished back in 2025, giving me quite the head start, which I then promptly fumbled and didn't paint more than 30 minis or so in 2025... oops.
