Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

[MGibster]

Disaster! I opened up some Speed Paint and failed to notice the dropper was stuck in the cap. 80% of the paint gone. Happy I don’t use this color often.

Oh I’ve done that before- that’s the worst!

This mummy was painted for a friend who gave me a ton of minis totaling for him. When he asked if I would paint some minis for him I didnlt think it would be 25+. I’m not putting a whole lot of effort into them, Partly because their cheap miniatures. But this one looks okay.

I thought it was about fighting hordes of old people.

Resistance is futile.

I hate when I haven’t used a paint in a while so it has dried in the dropper top and when nothing comes out I instinctively squeeze harder and then BOOM, paint volcano! So much paint wasted.

When this happens, a little voice in the back of my head says to stop squeezing and fix the blockage. Sometimes I listen. Sometimes I don't....

Yep. It is like a 1000 calculations go off in your head in mere seconds, but sometimes that is not fast enough to avoid the paint volcano.

Real Partha Ghost Dragon and Reaper Mini Hobgoblins!

I've always wanted to paint up that ghost dragon... Someday....

I have a sizeable collection of Reaper Miniatures Pokey Tools. They make it fun to go all stabby stabby on my paint, so I generally remember to use them ,lol.

My gray tide has receded once again and once again I await for it to surge back, this time around May 20th when the minis I ordered off Etsy are supposed to arrive from England. I figure that hydra and those lizardfolk are gonna take a while to paint, but the ogre is simple enough that I can bang it out for immediate satisfaction upon arrival.

I did it again. Same paint even.
