Small ... or far away...?

Small scale horse archer miniatures on arid looking bases on a messy cutting mat

Tumbling Dice 1/2400 napoleonic ship proof of concept for the rest of batch. Unsure re basing. Fire as She Bears/The Ladies upcoming Full Nelson and maybe scaled down Black Seas Rules are all contenders

View of a muscle model napoleonic ship with black and yellow chequers on the hull perched on top of a paint lid. Is ver Smol.

Finished painting @meridianminiatures.bsky.social "pathetic cavalcade miniatures. It feels like my camera phone image quality is frustratingly declining, but here's some group shots with big "...well, here we are...all the lads..." Energy #nerdlings #miniaturepainting

Image of miniatures looking like don Quixote doomed adventuring knights in hell. A ruined cityscape behind them. A massive landsknecht skeleton...thing is posing at the back in a "ta dah!" Pose. Not sure what he's conjuring but it's probably evisceration.

Tiny greek / Mediterranean looking village being held by one hand. Is ver Smol.

Had a go at J McCullough's Wartnose Jousting the other night. Not a full game but a few round Sto get the idea of things. Extremely silly fun. Printer's broke so tracing paper and pens it was for the movement templates.

View of a rules manual saying "wartnose jousting" , two miniatures and tracing paper with stencilled arcing and straight movement templates on a dark timber desk photographed from above

Painted up some goobs and some gnomes to have a scrap in some caves somewhere. From Thunder under Mount Silence game by @oakboundstudio.bsky.social

Dwarf like wargames figures with flowing beards waving a variety of axes/spears/swords in an aggressive manner in front of a stone wall. They're seeking to enforce deeply unethical and unsafe working practices on honest working goblins. Bastards.

Bunch of goblin wargames figures in black robes looking malevolent in front of a stone wall. They're just oppressed workers.

Fake headline stating Spongechop is the enemy within:Allister Heath

Fake headline stating: edge highlighting is evil: Allister Heath. Heaths face glares out at you like a malevolent egg

Painted up some knights retainers by @meridianminiatures.bsky.social - lovely wee weirdos

Homunculi looking sad/expectant/malevolent against the background of a burning Bosch esque cityscape

Some more progress- veggies next when fillers dry

Small scale ancients miniatures on desert effect bases on a cutting mat

Jamie@jammieshobbies· Feb 22

Painting 6mm greeks. Promised myself I wouldn't get too invested in shield designs. Failed.

Small scale miniatures being painted in strips on a cutting mat. Some fools painted tiny designs on shields of guys who will probably end up in the rear ranks

Jamie@jammieshobbies· Feb 15

WIP of @meridianminiatures.bsky.social knights retainers - they make n v happy in the painting thereof

Image of a wargames figure on a cork painting handle. A little homunculus/humanoid figure. It is looking left, holding a ladle.

And some nellies for scale

View of a small scale model of a shrine with trees and vegetation next to miniatures of elephants on a cutting mat

This lad probably counts as pretty spooky, though I think he's mid way through belting out "WHEN I WAS A YOUNG WART HOG" at a band of adventurers he's about to eviscerate

Large undead landschknecht figure gesturing theatrically against a ruined city scape

Jamie@jammieshobbies· Jan 27

WIP "in the land of the sundering flood" minis by mammoth miniatures. Just realised far left is not canonically supposed to be in sheer fabric/see through-ie dress.

Four wargames figures on paint pot lids. From left to right: dancing pagan be-dresséd siren in white dress and with mysterious greenish veil over her face frozen mid dance on one foot; green cloaked fae platinum silver haired mystery bearing large sowwd and pointy hat; angry gruff bear fellow with vocational beard and torch; red becloaked sword and armour bearing fighter in the act of unleashing Righteous Retribution (via means of sword)

I think I've just about amassed enough tiny Roman& Hellenistic ships for a Hail Agrippa/ Strength and Honour naval variant game

@warpminiatures.bsky.social hobgoblin for silver bayonet and other hobgoblin requiring encounters. I'm not really sure what hobgoblins are intended to look like (apart from the best forgotten ale branding) but this guy looks the part. Sort of wimped out on glowy eyes at the end.

Miniature of a hobgoblin with orangey pink flesh holding a flaming torch and wearing turquoise robes, looking malevolent

Jamie@jammieshobbies· Jan 1

Kintsugi attempt. No more in favour of two part epoxies after this tbh

Finished the Moonstone starter set - shown with @handiworkgames.bsky.social backdrop

A selection of fantasy miniatures in front of a scenic woodlands backdrop. Goblins on the left and humans on the right, sculpted in a kind of labyrinth esque dark fantasy manner. Weapons are being brandished with intent. A fantasy punch up may be about to ensue.

Some gobbos in a forest. One of them is riding a pug. Another (possibly a mage) is holding open it's coat in a 'got any leeches for these?' manner

Miniatures of Fantasy chaps in the woods

New mail from Ramshackle Games. (Small scale) Big stompy robot gaming for 2026

A black and white book cover titled "flames of Orion" with a cover design in black and white showing large mechs fighting in a ruined city with a black sun looming over them

Jamie@jammieshobbies· Dec 24

Am I doing it right? Some of the stuff I've painted this year and my mug #artversusart

One of those 3 x 3 grid things with the person's portrait in the centre with their hobby around the outside. Awkward looking white male holding a (possibly photoshopped in) skeleton in the centre with pictures of miniatures in front of scenic backdrops

Jamie@jammieshobbies· Dec 23

More or less done with Friar Flavious from the Moonstone starter box. Using caffeinated miniatures scratchy layers/highlighting over vivid base coats to try and get a similar feeling to the cover art
