It is done! All three Miscast Swordmaster and the Permadeth one are painted up.

For this set, I put myself up for a challenge: It's the first time I actually used oil paints for miniatures, and to make things more interesting, I relied on the Zorn palette, using only Burnt Umber, Red, Black, and White, mixing all the other shades from those four tubes.

I experimented with different ways to thin the paints (lighter liquid ending up being a huge boon: It dries a lot faster), how to mix things, how to push paints around, achieving a somewhat metal look with the non-metallic paints, mostly using only one sized brush (and that one not even with that fine a tip), and most of all: Coping with the tediously long drying times between the different paints and layers.

All in all, I am pretty happy with the result I must say. These four guys are each unique, and while they share the palette, they definitely each have their own paint scheme, and from half a meter, they look really good.

so, started on the next Miscast Swordmaster - and this time, I actually thinned the oil paints, which indeed makes all the difference in drying times. :D

Still deciding if I want to try a glowing-eye look or not. Generally though, the whole "oil paints and Zorn palette only" experiment is a nice challenge and interestingly different.

Good Morning, Folks! This past extended holiday weekend, I dove into the world of 3D Printing as I set up my #BambuP1S printer and attempted a whole series of projects. I talk about how the weekend went and show off some of the results.

Feeling better but nowhere near 100%. Took meetings yesterday & filmed a bit, but had to skip a colleague's presentation. Hoping to be up to attend Miscast tonight in person. Cat is both performing and co-directing. If not, though, I'll watch it streaming

Looking forward to attending University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Peck School of the Arts Miscast 2023 this Friday night! Student performers play and sing against their “type”. You can definitely watch online, but I'm going in person!

Proud of Cat Sadler, who is co-directing and performing!
