  • This video shows the painting process for my first 75mm display miniature which is Atle from the kickstarter Champions of Sona from @Squidmar!
    I loved painting this awesome sculpt and I could really tell that this was a display level miniature since the details were defined while keeping it clear for painting!
    Please check out the Kickstarter below where you can get even more 75mm display miniatures! For myself I learned a lot about painting in the process!

    Hey good people! I really enjoyed painting my first 75mm display miniature! I felt like I learned a lot when it came to painting light/darkness but also some crafting and classical art with the background! I spent about 10 hours all in all on this and I am super happy about the result, what do you think? Tell me in the comments below!

    Since I no longer play tabletop role playing or wargames, I paint and craft almost exclusively to display. And as I've gotten older, I've found that 75mm is A LOT more manageable than regular gaming minis. Your work is inspirational, and I encourage everyone to stretch your comfort zone a bit.
    Cheers!

    Thank you, Leif, for another great video from the world of miniature painting and hobby crafting. I always enjoy your very "humble" and honest approach to painting and crafting. I find you approach and your videos very refreshing and motivating, as you always manage to find also the good aspects in struggle and, maybe, sometimes even disappointed. I painted my first miniatures eons ago, when I was still a teenager, but I have recently returned to the hobby and have equally struggled with becoming a better painter - and I wish, I had your skills and level. Watching your videos is a motivating and highly entertaining experience. In the tabletop club that I support at our local school, we enjoy watching your videos as inpiration together with our pupils. They equally enjoy your work and told me to pass along their thanks for your time invested. Thanks for sharing your way and progress here with the community. Happy trails and keep up the great work! We really appreciate it...

      Oh crap! See even though I project the image of being a stone-cold Viking from the North(not!) I am actually a big softie! This comment made tears in my eyes.

Again, thank you! 👍💙💛💙

    He came out so dope! Love the way you did the skin. When you talked about the feeling of painting. I felt that. I've only been painting for a couple of months. But one thing I learned from your videos that always sticks. Is when you say "Trust the process" I did my first beholder. Was my first model bigger then a 1 inch scale. I was nervous af. But I remembered "trust the process". And honestly I wish I could show you how it came out. Because I learned alot from you while doing it.

You’re right when you say you should just go for it. The results can be amazing, and if not, it’s a learning process.
