Trials, Tribulations, and the fun stuff.

It's been a bit since I've sat down and typed out a blog post. Life has been hectic, with each week posing it's own challenges. This month also had a lot of wins. So we are going to focus on the positive.
I can officially celebrate after almost 3 months of daily work, I have all products from my old ETSY store listed plus the new models that the designers have released. This isn't to say I'm done posting things, I still have a short backlog from Rescale (Lord of the Print), Archvillain, and Collective/Cripta Studios (STLFlix), but there is a light at the end of the long tunnel.
Another win is that I had my first paint commission via Fiverr (pictured). This was a custom miniature the customer had purchased from Heroforge and then requested it to be blown up 400%, a 25mm to 100mm upscale. Other than the foot detaching from the base, the model was received intact, even though it weighed a lot. The fun part is I got to refresh graphic design skills with simple cuts to the piece to be able to print.
After this one, I was contacted a week later for a custom sized Wendigo Monstrosity by DM Stash. They requested the 50mm scale model to be scaled to 1:12, which is around 7 inches. The print came out flawlessly. Unfortunately this one was being sent as a parts kit to the new owner so no pictures.
I'm a little behind this month with painting, the raffle item is primed on my table, but not painted. I'll be working on it this weekend.
Thanks everyone for the support, signing off.
