Holy shit, I'm so glad that I found your channel, you've painted karlach and malenia, my favorite girls of all time
They are the best ladies of their respective games! Happy you found me!
Subbed for the axe, stayed for the puppetry. 10/10 would watch again ... And don't stress, this content is outstanding and if you keep at it, I have no doubt your channel will grow! Thanks for sharing.
Hey Jeff, thanks for the kind words and glad you enjoyed the puppets haha. Nice looking golden on your profile pic btw!
If I hadn't seen you paint Karlach, I would have thought that you had bought her like that or something. It sure looks like she just stepped out of BG3. Amazing.
Really appreciate it, thanks so much!
Both your Malenia and your Karlach look absolutely amazing. I was already very impressed by the way you paint metal, but then you went and did that gorgeous damascus pattern. Hell yeah! And seriously, kudos to you for donating half of your pledges to charity like that, too. Looking forward to more videos from you! Keep up the amazing work! Your videos are a real treat to watch.
Thank you for watching my videos! Appreciate your time and the comment. My dream has always been to use my passions to do good for the world, hoping I'm able to grow the channel more to do so!
That Damascus steel is insane. Good job!
Appreciate it!
Damascus steel NMM? You're insane.
And inspiring! I've been going slow on my NMM HeroQuest minis but now I wanna try going after them again. Thanks, man and Karlach turned out great!
Thanks bro! Send me pics of them heroquest minis when you're done
Great video brother. Karlach is honestly so wholesome and well written you cant help but to fall in love with the character.
She is straight up the best!
WOW, that is some superb craftsmanship, my good sir. great work!
Thank you very much!
Came here after seeing it posted on reddit. I love it.
Thanks for showing how you did it, as a beginner this is really helpful and make it look doable if I'm patient enough.
Totally doable!
u did great, the model is sick af, enjoyed watching you and thank you for sharing your struggles with us.
Thanks and Love that cat picture!
Karlach is my favourite character from Baldur’s Gate. I’ve been tempted to try painting a bust of her lately and seeing how you went about doing it really helped. Great non-metallic metal technique!
Look forward to seeing more! Subbed!
Thank you for the sub! Karlach is truly a gem of a character. I hope your bust goes well, if you do give it a try send me pics on Instagram. I'd love to see how it turns out!
Great video!
Inspired me to paint up a Karlach of my own, haha
You totally should! Happy to provide any tips if you need em
Great video man and FANTASTIC painting. Keep this up!! If I didn’t know better I would’ve thought you have been making videos for years.
Thanks so much man, still learning a lot but glad you enjoyed the video!
Mesmerizing ❤. I happened to catch an article about your video and I was absolutely entranced by your quality of edited, painting skills, and personality. The attention to detail, the patience to do it and explain why is unparalleled.
Thank you for this project. Thank you for the entertainment.
Thank you for the inspiration!
Please take my like and sub.
Can't wait to see the next one!
That's crazy! Didn't know there was an article haha. Thanks so much for the view and the nice comment. My next video is coming out in a few hours if you'd like to watch!
Nice instruction on techniques. I will definitely up my metal highlight game with this.
Thank you! Let me know how it goes
I'm from Brazil and I really like your channel, keep up the paintings and inspiring and funny videos
Thank you for the second comment, I'm so happy you enjoyed the videos!
The blade is unreal cool! Well done.
Thanks my dude
This is so fuc#$@ awesome!!! Now i Wanna try to paint some stuff, please keep the high quality videos coming
Thank you! So awesome to hear you got inspired, I hope you pick up a brush soon.
this is mindblowing! the detail and care you put into every single facet (literally) of her … wow. what an incredible process to watch! and you explained each step so cohesively and engagingly; your voice-over is well-spoken and well-scripted. i was surprised to see that you don’t have very many videos/subscribers; you absolutely deserve a lot more recognition for not only the calibre of your work, but the quality of your videos! you’ve certainly earned a new subscriber from me :]
i’m so glad that you and karlach found each other when you needed to last year, and i can’t think of a better way to honor her than bringing her to life through this labor of love. i look forward to seeing your future projects!!!
Thanks so much for the kind words. I've had so much doubt about making content but positive comments like this mean the world to me. I hope my future videos bring you happiness too!
Man said "I suck at painting", while I was thinking, that I prob would never achieve this level of painting 💀
Ofc I will, if I try, but it's hard to believe. Gosh... this looks outstanding, you did such an amazing job. Saved this vid to my goals folder ♥
Honestly, before you said "I'm a starting channel", I thought you have around 100k followers or smth like that. I'm rooting for you getting to that number! But most importantly - feeling better inside. You are amazing ♥
Wow, thank you so much for saying that! I can completely relate. Since I started painting and even now I still look at other painters and feel a sense of longing and doubt in my own abilities. Midway through projects I'll look at my work and get terribly frustrated when things don't turn out the way I want them to.
I hope the video serves only as positive inspiration. I believe in you! I know we're separated by the internet but I am truly rooting for your artistic journey. I know it sounds corny but if you have a desire in your heart to improve it will happen, seriously.

@@jleefishstudios thank you ❤️ yeah your vid didn't let me down, or smth. You are an inspiration
This video is so chill, I love listening to your explications and you're so good at painting in spite of what you're telling yourself.
Keep being yourself and doing what you love !
Also the black templar you showed in your last video is GOATED.
I just participated in my first small painting tournament in a local game shop and I loved it ! I've been doing the hobby for a year and a half now and I'm always on the lookout for cool channels to watch. And yours definately stand out to me !
I'm hyped for the melenia NMM video !
Don't forget to take care of yourself, the projects you tackle looks daunting to me lol.
Hey man thank you for the lovely comment. Hearing from amazing people like you has really helped me keep motivated to make more content.
I'd love to see the mini you painted for that competition! I think we connected on Instagram, send me some pics there! (BTW looks like you're a great chef)
My next vid will drop on Monday June 24 but I'll have to do a Black Templar one after that 😅
@@jleefishstudios Omg senpai has noticed me.
Thank you fore the reply !
I'll send pictures over.
Even more hyped over the Melenia video since I've seen the pictures on Instagram !
Wow - This is bloody UNREAL! Well done and stoked to stumble upon your channel.
Thank you! Glad you stumbled on my channel too!
Bro! I got you. Depression is a big pain in the ntz. Mut I'm glad you're looking through it. Also... amazing techniques of yours!! All of my feels, all of my likes.
Thank you for the positive vibes, right back at you!
Those eyes had me nervous
Haha I was sweatin
очень круто вышло) Продолжайте показывать ваши шедевры) Сам только учуть и восхищаюсь новым техникам работы
Спасибо за комментарий и рады, что вы узнали что-то новое из видео! Надеюсь, этот комментарий будет переведен правильно.
Outstanding paint job! The patience you have is remarkable…!
Thank you very much! It's easy to be patient when you're having so much fun haha
Amazing Paintjob ! ! !
Thank you man!
Keep up the amazing work! I found your channel through your Malenia painting video and I was super impressed. You made the NMM technique easy to understand; I might build the courage to finally try it out on some of my minis. Excited to see what you do next!
Thank you for the lovely comment! So happy I helped inspire you, I really hope you give NMM a go. Once you get the hang of it it's super fun to do.
This is awesome. Great work. I'm looking forward to seeing more!!
Thanks so much man! My next vid is painting Malenia from Elden Ring, should be out next week
Saw your post on Reddit. Immediately subbed.
Appreciate it! I was terrified to post on reddit but glad people liked it haha
That's an amazing paintjob! Love the editing as well! Instantly subscribed!
Thank you so much, I'm glad someone appreciates my silly editing haha
Wow!!!
Thank you!!!
Brilliant vid! The black leahter is wonderful. Subbed ❤
Thank you doc!
Damn!!! Amazing job!!!
Thank you very much!
That is stunning! Thanks for taking the time to actually show how you did stuff rather than cutting away with some hand-wavey description of how you achieved an effect.
Appreciate it! Still learning how much detail I should go into for each step so this is great feedback.
Stunning! ❤️🔥
Thank you!
Love your personality and the model turned out INCREDIBLE! Subbing to see more! :D
Thank you for the sub and glad you enjoyed the goofy video haha. More content coming soon!
I haven’t even played the game (don’t own something capable of running it) but I’ve seen stuff from it. Karlach has such a cool design and seems like a really interesting character.
Can’t decide if your model makes me want to bite the bullet and play the game or buy my own model and attempt to give it half as good a paint job (even though I’ll probably fail). Awesome work dude.
I genuinely hope you get a chance to play it! Definitely the best game I played in 2023. As for painting highly recommend you give it a try. This was the first time I'd ever painted something at this scale (I usually do warhammer minis) and the larger size was an absolute blast.
@@jleefishstudios hoping to soon be at a place where my finances let me buy a PS5 for basically the sole reason to play BG3. Until then I’ve started watching some of the voice actor streaming their play through a which has been fun.
How’d you find painting the larger scale? Largest scale I’ve painted so far was MCP (slightly bigger then warhammer) and largest model is partway through a AAT for Star Wars legion? I can’t decide if the larger details would make it easier or would get more stressed about smooth blends (not a strong point of my skills).
@@finlayames6216 hope the ps5 happens soon! When you get one highly recommend playing Persona 5 if you haven't already, it's literally my favorite of all time.
The larger scale was extremely fun. I was really pleased that the fundamentals I have from painting small minis translated to the larger size. If anything, the increased scale made blending easier as there was more room to work with and it was easier to see where transitions begin/end.
Great freaking video! Love the model!
Thanks so much for watching!
@@jleefishstudios Instant sub from me. Your editing was top notch, the voice over was great, and you added a lot of humor into your video on top of an amazingly impressive paint job. Kudos dude, i look forward to the next one. Oh and that freaking blade is amazing and VERY ambitious haha, I loved it.
@@Pokerzero2099 This means so much to me, thank you my dude!
oh wow this is amazing work. and you say you have no talent? oh my god. either way, subbed bcs you seem cool and VERY TALENTED
Thank you for the kind words and the sub! I'm always my biggest critic but will keep trying my best thanks to nice people like you
Congratulation😊
🥳 appreciate it!
Shadowheart approves! (and would like you to paint a model of her next)!
Haha I'd love to!
Holy cow dude! That Damascus steel process took some seriously steady hands. Do you have any advice for someone who's hands get a little shaky when doing details? I can't tell how much of it is mental and/or physical.
Thank you! Some tips on freehanding lines (in no particular order)
1. Constantly twisting your brush into a fine point. I painted about 1-2 cm at a time then retwisted the tip. This made it go really slowly but helped with consistency.
2. Using a bit more water than I normally would in the paint mix. You don't want so much that it will pool, but enough water to keep each stroke flowing smoothly.
3. Bracing my hand against the model for stability.
4. I didn't do it on camera but I went back in with the dark base color and covered up any mistakes/made some of the lines more thin
Looks Amazing! How did you learn how to paint so well?
Thank you for the kind words! I've painted for many years but I learned a ton from other UA-camrs. My favorites are Angel Giraldez, Jose DaVinci and Miniac. They have amazing tutorials if you're interested to learn!
Can you do one of mizora or raphael? Love yo work
Oh man, I'd love to! Raphael is a top tier character *chef kiss*
In any case, @@jleefishstudios looking forward to your new thing, whatever it is, whenever it comes out.
Great video! Subscribed.
Appreciate the sub! Checked out your channel, always good to see more WoW creators
@@jleefishstudios Yeee spent a lot of time there, but now kinda exploring new thing - model painting. Would love to see some WoW character painted by you! Cheers.
@@Raygnar haha so many good characters to choose from! Thrall and Jaina are my favs but Arthas would be sick
@@jleefishstudios There are few projects with Arthas. One from Luftmensch Studio and CA3D studios are best looking for me. Just saying...
@@Raygnar Those are insane!
What scale is this model? Want to order the same one and this size looks perfect. Cheers
Here's the exact Etsy listing I got it from! I'm not sure of the scale but the height is about 10 inches (base to head)

@jleefishstudios thank you appreciate it 👍
Hello
Hey hey!
Hi, I was the artist behind this statue, and you painted it very well!!! @finamor3dart😀
OH MY GOSH THAT'S AMAZING! The model is absolutely flawless, I was constantly in awe of the details as I worked on it. The face specifically was done so perfectly. I've had many people ask me who is behind the file, I'll be sure to send them your name. I also added a little credit to the video description so people can find you. I hope I did your amazing model justice with the paintjob!
