About Side Quest Studio

Side Quest Studio is where I share my creative detours — a space for model building, painting, and whatever else captures my curiosity. It’s not a brand or business, just a bench, a brush, and a camera. I started this site to track progress, learn new techniques, and connect quietly with other hobbyists doing the same


My Approach

Every kit or figure here starts as a side project — something done for the sake of creating, learning, or just unwinding. I enjoy experimenting with paint finishes, exploring custom color mixes, and finding ways to bring a bit of personality into every build. Progress is slow, but intentional; I’d rather enjoy the process than chase perfection.
