However, the miniatures themselves were incredible too, with one of them bearing a striking resemblance to a character I've played for years in D&D.

Robot in Yellow

This sculpt is C-48 Roy from Savage Forged Minis but I'm calling my piece Robot in Yellow. After painting the last few models of my recent High Elf army commission with yellow robes I got a taste for it and I wanted to paint something of my own in that scheme.

Project Log: High Elf Commission

The Brief: A friend of mine asked me to paint up his High Elf army, which was already built but not looking great due to being a mishmash of ebay purchases and the like. Most models had mold lines, some are broken or falling apart, etc... What he asked for was a decent looking paintjob … Continue reading Project Log: High Elf Commission →

Aglaé

Sometimes a model is just so inspiring that I have to have it in my collection. Aglaé was one of those for me, I smiled the second I saw her and I had a vision of exactly what I wanted to do. It took me a while to finally get around to starting this project, … Continue reading Aglaé →

So this last weekend I finally attended a 3 day Beginner's Workshop in Augsburg, Germany. Over the course of the workshop I learned an incredible amount about base … Continue reading I went to a painting workshop! →

My Painting Journey

After a great conversation with a friend of mine I decided it would be nice to spend some time thinking about my history with this hobby. Since every interview with painters seems to cover this topic, I figure it should make for a good blog post.

Battle Report: Death Guard #1

Pregame: My Death Guard are taking the field opposite the Crimson Fists in a small 1000 point game to help my friend James get some practice in. He's a newer player, but doesn't want to play against a specifically toned-down list so that's why I'm bringing what I am. I haven't seen his list but … Continue reading Battle Report: Death Guard #1 →
