Does it look like an actual quantum shard?

​I decided to make them for myself and a girl I just recently met online. I really feel something for her already, sooo I felt a huge spark of motivation to make something special, not just buy some roses and stuff

​I love making things myself, so a quantum shard was a perfect match for what I wanted to do. Made it with air-dry clay, primed it, painted it, and applied varnish so it looks glossy and has nice protection

​I thought of gifting it to her when we see each other IRL (tmrw btw!)

​I also prepared a small box with a little drawing saying "The universe is, and we are"

​What do yall think, does that look cool as a gift?

i already have tyranids as my first one and i already practiced some things on them painting wise

i wanted to try something new and i really like chaos knights and overall slaanesh lore and minis especially the fiends so i thought about buying both

but when i looked up at combat patrol - yeah it seems that it gives so many minis for low price but i dont really feel like painting all that bunch of minis just for quality and waiting a ton of time JUST to buy those that i wanted first

and yeah seems that its an easy question - just buy what you like but the problem is that ill practice color scheme on expensive minis not just some normal marines

i like painting ALOT more than playing so i value it more

sorry if anyone finds this question stupid though

any advice?
