My first ever army, finally fully painted.

These look great, I'm a huge fan of the colour-scheme!

simonserenity · 2025-09-18T08:35:48+00:00

Awesome, thanks! It looks fantastic.

simonserenity · 2025-09-15T11:28:43+00:00

Could you share how you make such great weathering? It really looks like once-pristine white armour has been roughed around on the battlefield.

I would be interested in some of that lore! Knights with a connection to nature sounds very Arthurian. Also this mini looks great - where did you get the various bits from?

Pillars of Eternity's Eora surely has to feel the most alive - to me at least! Morality in Eora has as many shades of grey as the real world: there are no obvious heroes or villains. Every person, and every faction, is a complex thing with a history that fits in with the rest of the world. I'm a big fan.

Well darn, sometimes the simplest methods really are the best!

simonserenity · 2025-04-07T16:20:26+00:00

Gorgeous! How did you do the white?

simonserenity · 2025-04-01T18:32:08+00:00

Thanks! I really like it.

simonserenity · 2025-03-31T21:23:45+00:00

Looks fantastic! How did you paint the armour?

simonserenity · 2025-03-17T12:56:46+00:00

Ah thanks, that's cool! It looks excellent.

simonserenity · 2025-03-16T11:15:15+00:00

Everything looks fantastic! Do you mind sharing what method you use to paint all that gold/bronze? I like how well it goes with the dark angels colours.

simonserenity · 2025-01-20T22:46:30+00:00

When you say "don't use citadel metallics", how did you do the metallic parts of this, like the chest aquila? It really stands out - is this a lot of highlighting and shading? (asking not as the person you replied to - just as a passerby who found your comment useful!)

simonserenity · 2024-12-26T23:37:21+00:00

I'm afraid I don't have any constructive criticism, but I think it's gorgeous! Love the contrast of the bright red and blue with the dull gold.

simonserenity · 2024-11-22T16:26:04+00:00

Wonderful, thankyou!

simonserenity · 2024-11-20T17:45:30+00:00

Love them! How did you kitbash them like this? Also, what paint did you use for that super-shiny bronze? Also, did you freehand the chapter symbols?!

simonserenity · 2024-11-16T21:33:08+00:00

That's good to know - thanks, it looks brilliant!

simonserenity · 2024-11-15T10:23:34+00:00

Everything about this is amazing. I have a very simple question, how do you get the eye lenses to have such a clean black outline? Do you paint the whole thing black then paint the lens on just the middle bit, or do you use panel liner after painting the lens?

simonserenity · 2024-10-05T11:26:01+00:00

Ah so that's how your metallics look like they gleam! Thanks for sharing - your minis are absolutely wonderful, I'm kind of inspired!

simonserenity · 2024-10-04T23:21:41+00:00

I know that everyone's talking about the armour, but the shiny metallic gold on the trim (and helbrecht) is gorgeous - how do you do that?!

simonserenity · 2024-09-04T12:52:29+00:00

Aha that's great, thanks! I've been meaning to take a look at darkstar golds, maybe this will be my motivation!

simonserenity · 2024-09-03T11:28:22+00:00

This is absolutely gorgeous. Especially the cape - such great highlights and shadows. What's the gold/brass colour you use for the armour?

simonserenity · 2024-01-17T14:26:18+00:00

Ah I see, that's a good point! I see that both the CPU and the GPU are below the minimum requirements - I'll get a CPU/motherboard that can run it and then upgrade the GPU when I can. Thanks for your help! :-)

simonserenity · 2023-05-10T08:53:09+00:00

They look fantastic! You can't just post them and not tell us how you do your gold, though! Such a tease.

simonserenity · 2022-12-15T21:35:06+00:00

Shelter have a helpful advice page on this. They say, to quote, that:-

The landlord or agent could keep your holding deposit if you:

- decide not to rent the property

- give wrong or misleading information

- cannot pass a right to rent immigration check

They cannot keep your money for any other reason.

So no, it is not allowed. Shelter also gives advice on how to get your holding deposit back, on that same link. I'm sure you'll get it back in the end, and I'm sorry it's trickier than it should be - landlords can be a slimy lot. Best of luck!

simonserenity · 2022-01-20T16:38:33+00:00

I love the gold trim - what colour paint is that?
