  • Acrylic paints are your friend here. They last a long while in their bottles and you can keep a palette for a few days when using a wet palette. start with just using a brush and jump up to an airbrush if you want to cover a bigger area or do fancy stuff (an air brush is far from required). As another commenter said, the minipainting community has a ton of resources, text and video tutorials, and willing to provide constructive feedback if you want it.

    Just remember: thin your paints~










  • Having had both great and terrible work out days, I found what led to the good, enjoyable days was purely the mindset. HIIT on a stationary bike sucks, but I had some fun sessions when I turned it into a game. Weight lifting routines can be super boring, but changing from rep based to time based and seeing if you can crank out a few more reps without sacrificing form can make it fun.

    It takes a lot to get into that mindset for me, but it’s possible and it makes a world of difference. Gamification of any task can introduce a challenge and give oneself a better purpose in the moment.
