How about getting him a high-quality set of miniature painting brushes or paint? You could also consider a painting easel or a new painting desk that would make his painting setup more comfortable. Alternatively, you could find a few unique mini figurines for him to paint - perhaps ones that he has mentioned wanting to add to his collection. Finally, you could consider a painting class or workshop focused on miniature painting, so he can learn some new techniques and skills.
Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.
