It was incredibly rewarding to "merge" my miniature painting with my nursing practice for a moment & brighten up a kids day. I'm glad to say I work at an Amazing hospital, with a Fantastic group of people, with some INCREDIBLE Kids & see WAY more "successes" in these kids journeys... more "Triumph" than "Tragedy" is how I like to put it. But, that being said... fingers crossed & here"s hoping "Pinky" can bring some Real Unicorn Magic to her situation. I'm out of reactions again! DMG really needs to figure that out. It's awesome what you are doing. My constitution roll is always low, so it's great that the world has people like you in it. I like seeing different people's unicorns. There are so many different interpretations out there. You went a completely different route than I did. Fingers crossed for your sweet patient. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This little girl, She loves the color pink... thus the inspiration for the way I went with my paint job. I have some other color scheme ideas if another unicorn ever comes my way to paint. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dean McQuay 33 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Nice... A Classic white unicorn & a rainbow mane. I think the next time I do another, I’d like to try something “darker.” Like maybe purples, blacks, & greens. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RomyCat 1,050 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) I've been painting on and off through the summer and am finally ready to show off the results. My sister and neice gave me a two-piece mimic set for Christmas that I adored painting. I bought fire holders that I was thrilled to see the final results. The legs really look like they are made from metal. Hard to imagine these were all solid white once. I can't wait to sneak my mimics into a RPG. For Christmas, I gave my sister a bar set. Here are some of the pieces. The wagon came separately from the rest. Here is the whole bar set minus the dancer and bar keeper which I am still working on. The table to the right and its stools are from a different set. Beware trying to steal from this tavern. The drinks carry quite a bite.

Absolutely beautiful. I’m soooo jealous of your artistic talent. Never was good at the physical arts . My younger brother got those genes . I wish I could do miniatures like you and others. Very nicely done 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It sounds really silly, but it's not easy to paint brown on brown on brown and get a realistic "wood" result. Well done. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Your fire bowls turned out really nice. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Barb Bliss 6,317 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Still needs a seal coat, but my latest Massive Darkness monster. I kind of like him. You don't want to know how many coats of different colors and washes and dry brushes. I'm still debating on whether to add some more details (like on his blemishes and bumps). Part of me wants to add eyes, and part of me thinks that will ruin it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would at least put a wash over the eyes to make them pop a bit. Something dark. Always try doing more. No fear. Charge forth! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
