Unreal!

How long does it take to paint such a complex minifig? Also, do you assemble and then paint, or paint the separate parts first before assembling?

Paul's avatar

Thank you.

I build ones like this in sub assembly to make it easier to paint and manage. With this one in particular I magnatised it in two places to make transport easier. The king himself was left off till last but is now glued in to possition, the base and the energy crackle is one piece and the throne seperates at the top of the stairs in to two more bits.

Transportation, forgot about it completely! Ok, time to share my shameful WH minifig =)

Bare in mind I am just getting back into painting miniatures! This is what I have managed so far.

Everyone starts somwhere and no matter what you think of them, if you had fun doing it then they are perfect 👍

The partner doesn't particularly like when I have my Space Marines around on display - something to do with them looking like the little green army men her brother used to play with. But I was particularly proud of these and I think my enthusiasm was evident as I was able to display them on the living room bookshelf.

I more recently finished this dreadnought which is my current pride and joy

Display them proudly!

Thanks fam, i think i may actually do some some painting on my streams so i have more time to progress my army haha no idea if anyone watches or hangs out in streams like that tho!

Paul's avatar

They do! I watch Miniac streams and johnny chiodini, he sometimes does painting streams.

It might not be your regular audiences flavour but there are fans of it. Its just a good type of stream to put on when you are doing your own thing.
