Hi, I'm Aiden! I started painting miniatures when I was 13 years old. I loved the satisfaction of having a blank chunk of plastic or metal and bringing it to life. From dragons to giants to unholy beings, I've painted it all. You can find me teaching workshops on painting techniques, styles, and much more personal projects at the Clear Creek Makerspace.
