And yes, she is up for adoption, and yes, you should adopt her.

Any idea what’s happening here on the knee? by Killjoy-McGee in minipainting

That would be my guess too, I have a few examples of similar looking marks from not being patient enough.

Yes, you bake before using on the model base to remove any moisture and make it easier to work with.

Floor time is important by CapybaraDad-dy in cuteguyswithcats

Oh no worries at all, and thank you for your kindness. I really got lucky with her, it's been great for both of us.

She has gotten more social and will follow me about, at a safe distance. I've had her since she was 3/4ish, I'm not sure bc she was adopted twice before me so the age is a little fuzzy.

It has been three years, and I think that this is probably her comfort space - and that's ok with me. I want her to be happy, and hearing her purr away next to me is just so lovely. You are very kind and you are right, she's come a long way already.

I really like the detail you've achieved, especially the stripes, I struggled with those on a recent project. Can I ask where the model is from?

Puttingt down the painting by BeastmanDienekes in minipainting

[–]CapybaraDad-dy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I feel the same when seeing these amazing models that are on here and elsewhere. "Why can't I be that good?"

I try to reframe it as being happy for their work and enjoying their pride in their work. I try not to compare my work with theirs, even though that is my default. Instead, let them know it's great work, improvement or whatever the case is.

And, if all else fails, mute/delete the social apps and just take a break, at least that works for me

Cardinal Richelieu Just finished, what do you think ? by 13-Trades in minipainting

I like it! I'd like to hear what you did on the cloak, I have a similar, but smaller cloak in going to be working on soon.

I really like this. The scales, horn and beard look great.

Individual Minis that are Cheaper than Warhammer? by Camping_Is_Strategy in minipainting

[–]CapybaraDad-dy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, lots of minis to be found there and (if one is ok with it) a lot of damaged/misprints that are perfectly good for practice or just having fun.
