I think I know how to avoid it again but yeah. While fiddling with some dark eldar weaponry and sprue nubs i had the knife fly right into my finger.
I think next time Id do better to trim the nubs shorter with clippers before going at them with the knife. My knife was sharp already, fresh blade, so I dont think that was the issue. Perhaps a clamp of some kind would work in the future so my finger isnt in harms way but I dont know how i would set that up.
Funnily enough I read somewhere that super glue was first invented as a medical adhesive so I tried using it to seal the flap of skin over the cut. An awkward location for a normal bandaid, so close to the nail. And it worked ok. The glue would kind of flake off after several hours but then I would reapply.
Not much painting from me for now while Ive been in pain from some combination of computer use, bad posture, sedentary pandemic life, and whatever else may have contributed.
Got this beaut waiting for me when im ready though:

Bye for now 👋
