She walked into a Warhammer store on a whim, got talked into a starter set by staff, then spiraled into buying way more kits while researching how to paint them — and three weeks later still hadn't painted anything.
FAQ
- Did she actually paint anything in this video?
- No — she says she hasn't painted a single miniature yet, and even says she won't paint the big model featured because she'd "absolutely ruin him" right now.
- Why did she buy so much Warhammer stuff?
- She went in planning to buy one or two things, but the store employee recommended more kits and she bought them; then watching Asmongold open Warhammer boxes made her think she should build an army she'd actually like playing with, and it snowballed into what she calls Pigmentum.
- What's her plan now that she has all this unpainted stuff?
- She says she's going to document everything — every lesson, every mistake, every small improvement — starting from assembling and painting, with the long-term goal of maybe being good enough to enter a Golden Demon someday.
