About the Project
Since I have been severely hampered with problems in my right hand and arm over the last months and not knowing if this ever gets better, I at first kind of gave up on ever doing the hobby again. But slowly the desire to paint has been coming back. In this project I am going over my process of me trying to relearn how to paint with my left hand and using some new tools to aid me in getting back in the hobby.

'Armless Necromancer....
I started on the weathering on the Necromancer for Starcide by Archon Studio today and had to leave it here. This is sadly a bit of a fragile model as the arm holding the staff and ghost kept coming off.
A New Tool.
I have bought a light with magnifier to help me keep a better posture when painting. a bad posture is one of these things that can flare up my chronic illnesses, so this should help.
Ghosting... 👻
A little bit more work on the Necromancer for Starcide by Archon Studio, well, mostly been working on the ghost. And I have to say the new lamp with magnifier is going to be useful, but it is going to take quite a bit of time to get used to.
Bases and Metallics.
I got a bit more done on the necromancer for Starcide by Archon Studio, I finished the base (not the rim) and brushed up most of the metallics.
Ghostly Progress. 👻
More work on the Necromancer for Starcide by Archon Studio today. I got the rim of the base, the green bits of the pistol done and I tried to add a bit of a ghostly shade to make the faces on the shoulder look like they’re ghosts trying to come through the robe.
Necromancer
This is my finished Necromancer for Starcide by Archon Studio.
I am going to keep this project going for a couple more miniatures to see if I run into any problems, but for now I think I have a good grip on how to do my hobby with my disabilities and on how to deal with my disabilities themselves.
Oiling it up again...
I have decided to finsish this projoct, however I will add anything regarding my disablilities and hobbies as they come up. I will be working on developing my paint scheme using oils for historicals and such over in my ‘Oiling Up’ Project.
