This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.
Rules
- Keep it civil.
- No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
- Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
- No political or social cause agenda pushing.

I went into a games workshop with my son yesterday and I have to say, as someone who knows nothing about any of this stuff, I’m so impressed with the artistry and skill involved.
The sheer attention to detail. The shading etc. you must have to have a very steady hand, a tiny brush and a lot of patience! The owner of the shop said it’s quite meditative and I can see why.
You might see this as work in progress but I’m blown away by the love that goes into these mini figures.
Thanks, takes a lot of patience for sure! You're right, it can be really relaxing to paint. I hope your son enjoys painting his minis too!
