About

Hi I'm Nelinde, (pronounced Knee-Lynn-Dee) but you can call me Nel! I’m born and bred South Wales in the UK. I’m sadly not fluent in Welsh but I can say “Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch”, which I promise you is a real place in Wales! I'm a huge nerd/geek and love the colour BLUE! I love meeting new people from all different walks of life and getting to know everyone. I’m also a full time stay at home Mam so my Hubby and brood of children may be seen or heard on stream from time to time!

I started streaming on Twitch in February 2018 as a variety gamer to socially connect with people from around the world from the comfort of my own home and without having to worry about childcare! My journey into painting miniature models began August 2018 and I've been stuck deep down that rabbit hole ever since, always trying to hone my craft and improve my painting techniques. Thus, It was here I embarked into the Art world on Twitch and made the switch to being a full time Creative streamer in October 2018.

I paint miniature models from a whole range of brands such as Warhammer, Creature Caster, Reaper Miniatures, Northumbrian Tin Soldiers and pretty much anything I can get my hands on! I paint for fun and the love of expressing my creative abilities, to spend some quality time with my children who I’ve passed on my love of miniature models too, to play tabletop games with friends and family: such as Warhammer40k, Age of Sigmar, Warcry and KillTeam and to enter painting competitions. I have recently started taking on commissions, full details on which can be found here

I also really enjoy using my Twitch platform to raise money for charity! Usually once a month I will do a 24hr charity stream in aid of a different charity where you can get involved with events, painting contests and even giveaways! Since streaming on Twitch I have raised over £5000 for several worthy causes and had so much fun in the process!

Occasionally you can find me playing games on my gaming channel www.twitch.tv/NelindeGaming. I enjoy a broad spectrum of games with my favourites being World of Warcraft, which I’ve played for the last 14 years and Elder Scrolls Online, which I’ve played on and off since Beta! I also like to play a variety of games with the Community so if the game takes your fancy then don’t be shy and join in! We don’t bite… much! Nelinde's Squig Sanctuary is a welcoming and inclusive Community who are all about the painting and gaming fun, shenanigans and hanging out! Feel free to join the Discord
