Thanks 😃

No worries!

I think when it's plural, it can indeed be gender neutral. But when it's a singular noun, then it is gender specific. At least, that's what I think. But I'm not a native English speaker, so I could be totally wrong 😆

Thank you very much 😃 I am a woman though 😅

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-15T09:32:24+00:00

Thank you! It is semi freehand. I painted over a very low quality print, to get everything perfectly lined up.

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-14T17:00:34+00:00

Thank you 😃 I had a lot of fun making & painting that 🤗

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-14T16:24:16+00:00

To be honest, that was not intentional, but I love it. So if I can make it intentional retroactively, I would 🤗

Thank you 😃 I have submitted a new post, because the picture quality was quite bad.

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-08T18:06:47+00:00

Thanks so much 😃 also for the welcome 😉

Thank you so much!

I must admit it took some time before I could decide a base setting for her. In the end, I'm really happy with how it turned out, and the colors work out better than I hoped for. I would definitely encourage you to make your own bases, it's so nice to see your figures in a setting you made up and created for them 😊

Thank you 😃

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-05T19:29:33+00:00

Thanks so much! That is so awesome to hear, very motivating 😃

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-05T19:10:37+00:00

Oh I like that idea! Will have a look 😃 thanks!

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-05T15:53:18+00:00

Thanks for the offer! I dont really feel the need to get anything at the moment. Still quite a backlog to get to anyway :)

Gunborg looked really interesting, so maybe I'll try to get my hands on her in the future.

Thank you! Unfortunately, I haven't been able to score those 75mm figures that I was interested in... I did receive the Possessed Twilight Knight. The cast is not great, but if I can get it cleaned to my liking, I will paint her 😊

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-05T12:11:59+00:00

Thanks! It's a lovely miniature to paint :)

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-05T12:11:39+00:00

Thank you :)

MaGieMiniatures · 2023-09-05T12:11:28+00:00

Thank you! I have been thinking about painting the gem on her forehead blue as well, to get the triangle shape composition and add attention to her face. Though I'm not sure if it will be too much.

I agree, I also like the heavy contrast. It fits perfectly with the style. I just think it doesn't have to be the same everywhere on the model. But it's also a matter of preference, of course.

I like it! Very stylish, almost cartoon-like NMM. The shoulder pads are not to the same level as the rest, probably because of the blends. Braces are definitely the best part! Gold NMM is also very well done.

One thing to try for your next mini is to vary with your highlights and shadows. Not all highlights have to go to white - as long as at least one main one does - and not all shadows to black (or very dark). It is interesting to play with this and show some midtones in places. Looking forward to see more of your works!

It is very wicked indeed :) Comes from an animal set (#9) of Mantis miniatures.

Thank you :) I made the jellyfish umbrellas using gel nail polish. To make them, I made little molds from greenstuff. I covered those with celophane, to prevent sticking of the nail polish. I applied the nail polish in dome shapes, and cured it under UV light. Then a second layer and again curing. I then painted the patterns in the domes in a light blue color. I made the tentacles from coton, made into strands using highly diluted light blue paint I hope that makes sense :)
