Stosspreppin! Getting my Prussian warband going with some customizations mixed in. Everyone has a name, they're all my friends. Even in death. We live as a pale horse of guts floating etherially above the battlefield as the newly deceased are added to our corpus mass. War is love. #stosstruppen #trenchcrusade #prussian #carcassfront #wargaming

Ghost World, part 3. With three models done in this way, I'm calling it a series. Leaving perfect painting to the side and thinking more deeply about the mood and overall composition is the focus. It's all vibes, man. + There is a video on all of the above available on Patreon #miniaturepainting #infinitythegame #scifiart #paintingwarhammer #fantasyart

Madness beneath the human empire. Rats on dust made of extraplanetary origin. I enjoyed the way this model captured a sense of drug fueled momentum. It quickly gave the vision of manic and underground Skaven activity. Commended entry, Golden Demon, Milwaukee. #skaven #goldendemon #doomwheel #ageofsigmar #warhammerunderworlds

The snow settles as Avalanche returns from Adepticon and the Golden Demon. In the end, it received a finalist pin. I can't lie and say that isn't greatly disappointing. I have to pick myself back up in the coming days but wanted to share this sooner than later. I love what I've made and it is my greatest work and effort to this day. I wanted to create a battle scene fitting of the artwork that inspires the models. With that I am happy and admire what I've made. There are times when a contest can make you feel negatively about your work, that is not an effect I'm feeling. There is a lesson in this, but it won't reveal itself today. Time will tell. #goldendemon #spacewolves #orks #adepticon

Finished! Huron Blackheart, the Tyrant of Badab. Given the Red Corsairs reaving, raiderous nature it seemed fitting to paint him in a night scheme. Many muscular thanks to GW for this pre-sales copy. + Tutorial available on Patreon (linked in bio) . . #redcorsairs #huronblackheart #adwip #warhammercommunity #newwarhammer

Upon sodden graves they tread. The speechless, eyeless, blood-stenching fruits of his gift (ripened). Life would be of no measure if not for his company in the cycle. Of decay and nourishing fertilizer. Give and love. + 22 models in 2 days, there is a tutorial on patreon, linked in my bio. #nurgle #darkwater #maggotkin #pestigor #deathguard

Finished! Mulgoth (the cleaver) and the (plague) Templars. There's a decent band name in there. I approached these models with a lot of tricks in mind, stippling, airbrush filters, special effects, speedpaint markers, layers of secreted filth..It felt good to experiment and ask myself questions. Evey piece is an experiment and I find my happiness in this lies in asking myself questions about how I can achieve a desired outcome and then carrying out those ideas. + There is a thought piece of maintaining interest set to time lapse of these models available on Patreon, linked in my bio. . . #darkwater #nurgle #ageofsigmar #warhammer #rotswords
