Darkwater Treasure Token
TLDR: if you love what you’re painting it will be apparent to others. Keep painting what you love and what brings you joy.
So this model has caused me a lot of mental turmoil and severe impostor syndrome. I spent maybe. 4 hours max on it. And submitted it as a teehee to Golden Demon at Adepticon 2026. I was leaving a class with some friends and I wanted to take a look at my model. As I went to look for it, it was being brought out from judging, along side a Notable pin.
I struggled a lot with a pin for something I was unserious about and some friends walked away with nothing. But comparison is the thief of joy. I love painting weird little creatures like this and it really shows in my paint job. And many of my friends pointed out that the judges probably noticed that.
