I just started inkling for painting pyos, so i picked up a few non windstones and trying my hand at painting before i tackle a windstone piece. heres the first one. i picked it up at hobby lobby and wanted to paint it. not sure if it was meant to be painted, the shell ended up with a few paint streaks.. but for my first time i think it turned out really well 🙂 included before and after photo.

The streakiness on the shell is kind of nice, in my opinion. It makes it look almost marbled.
FYI for future works: I’ve never needed to prime a Windstone, but on non-Windstone models I find that using a primer first helps prevent uneven color by providing a consistent basecoat. I like spray primers intended for miniatures, like Army Painter spray primer, which you can find easily online or at hobby shops. They tend to run around $15 a can and last a good while.
