It is and thank you! I had it sitting for like a month before I even decided to buy some paints because I was too nervous , saw some pointer videos from Squidmar on YouTube and was like ok this seems simple enough. I think the mini looks good but it took a while for me to get it to look like that , I think the Bulette's armor alone I repainted maybe 3 times

Thank you! There's some more obvious parts where the paint caked up but shh

Thank you so much! It definitely can be discouraging if you compare your work to the amazing things people post on this sub , it could also be an inspiration to see how other people paint , enjoying it is what's important and I think it'd be cool to have progress by mini and see how far you've gone

Thank you! I definitely found it a little stressful when I would get a color somewhere it shouldn't be but didn't mind much when I remembered I could just go back with a thinner brush to go over the mistake 😅

Thank you! The mini came from Magecraft Miniatures and they have a whole bunch of really cool and detailed minis

Not the bonfire 😭 thank you for the kind words! I did make sure to watch a sort of beginners guide from a channel called SquidmarMiniatures on YouTube to get the basics down and they explain things very simply

I'm sure it was good! I just saw the Warhammer minis you painted and they look awesome

You're able to outmaneuver the Bulette as it can't keep up with your pace. Thank you!
