A few months ago, I came across a stunning Blaidd figure from Elden Ring, and I was completely blown away by the details. Blaidd – half man, half wolf, instantly became one of those figures I had to paint.

While I was still busy with other projects, Marko was quicker and claimed it for himself! Since this was the largest figure he’d ever worked on, I primed the figure to help him get started. But after a few days of just admiring it, he started with the base and soon realized that Blaidd might be a bit too ambitious for now. “Mom, maybe you should take this one.” Woo-hoo!

So, Mom stepped in! And, yes, what a challenge! The details were endless, but the final result made every hour worth it.
I’m really happy with how it turned out – and, honestly, a little proud too.
