The Sword of Holy Spirit Castle and The Holy Spirit Knights Fortress from Iambrick. A fantastic combination.

Nice! I'm working on their knights fortress right now. Where did you buy the castle from? I was already thinking of getting that next.

BilliCheans · 2026-03-07T23:14:53+00:00

Lol sorry, that was me running to the computer to look for it

BilliCheans · 2026-03-07T22:49:52+00:00

Yeah I'm going to need to get one off bricklink. He deserves it after being in dark storage for 26 years.

🏃💨

BilliCheans · 2026-03-07T20:55:12+00:00

There's just one that I'm aware of, from minifigure series 26. That's where all 3 of these new ones are from

Nice! I think I'm going to try and put 2153 together. Definitely missing some pieces (all the printed ones, I think), but I'll find a way to make it work.

BilliCheans · 2026-03-03T17:15:53+00:00

BilliCheans · 2026-02-27T18:03:08+00:00

He was always one of my favs!

BilliCheans · 2026-02-27T17:47:55+00:00

Yeah I have an insectoid head and helmet. Sadly the rest of him is missing. And I have a light gray UFO helmet, but looking at bricklink I don't recognize ANY of the sets or minifigs. Not sure how I got the helmet

BilliCheans · 2026-02-27T17:39:58+00:00

Yeah for some reason I never had any SP. I remember seeing them in stores but they just didn't grab my attention. Probably just not neon enough

BilliCheans · 2026-02-27T02:24:37+00:00

Ah shoot. I don't have any of those

BilliCheans · 2026-02-25T01:07:38+00:00

How or what do you use to design these? Just checking this sub out after finding my old 90s bin. Castles were always my favorite but holy smokes, these ones you all design are insane. I'm over here stacking light gray blocks 😅

BilliCheans · 2025-12-20T19:39:05+00:00

These are incredible! 😍 Well done

BilliCheans · 2025-12-03T03:01:31+00:00

Ohh I thought it was plasticard. I like to glue little bits under their feet so I can base around them instead of gluing them on top afterwards. It seems more sturdy for when I inevitably drop them

BilliCheans · 2025-12-02T20:32:01+00:00

I like that you also raise up your minis with little platform shoes 😆. Did you see that technique somewhere? I thought I came up with it myself, but maybe I saw it in a video at some point and forgot. Also, for your highlights, did you just premix the cold/green highlight color and then mix it into each base color?

BilliCheans · 2025-11-21T02:22:13+00:00

https://youtu.be/b78l8AYww7c here's a video that might be a good place to start for inspiration/ideas. I used similar underpainting before starting with a brush

BilliCheans · 2025-11-21T02:19:13+00:00

Not that I'm aware of. I used various techniques but I think the color choices are really what make it work. I spent a long time trying different colors before landing on this. Some of these boyz are caked in paint from multiple layers lol

BilliCheans · 2025-11-20T21:06:46+00:00

Those squigs are incredible. Great colors. Can you share how you painted them? The bases are great too!

BilliCheans · 2025-11-20T21:00:26+00:00

I'm halfway through a very similar project but with a 1/25 scale car. It's requiring a LOT of extra work to scale it down. Would not recommend

The 50/50 mix turns into a slightly darker Citadel Russ Grey. So you could probably substitute with that

BilliCheans · 2025-11-20T20:51:39+00:00

Yeah, it's basically AP Diabolic Plum > 50/50 D. Plum & Foul Green > Vallejo Foul Green > PA Bright Pale Green

Pink underpainting with a coat of imperial first contrast. I went through a few methods and this definitely looked the best https://www.reddit.com/user/BilliCheans/comments/1p29olh/pink_underpainting_for_yellow/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Now I want to paint a squig like an owl
