Hi, I’m Nils — miniature painter, content creator, and the Brush Bard behind Stained Brush Painting Studio.
I create free miniature painting tutorials, colour recipes, brush-focused guides, hobby stories, and the occasional song about the joys and struggles of painting tiny plastic warriors.
My goal is to make miniature painting feel approachable, entertaining, and a little less intimidating — especially for painters who mostly work with brushes and do not own a full studio setup.
If my content has helped you, inspired your next project, or simply made you smile, you can support my work by buying the Brush Bard a paint pot.
Your support helps me invest in paints, models, filming equipment, and more time to create useful free content for the miniature painting community.
There is absolutely no pressure. Watching, commenting, sharing, and being part of the community already means a lot to me.
Thank you for joining me at the painting table.
