Back home, still beaming! First time in @miniaturepaintingopen Masters categories and the little Thunderhawk that could only went and did! I was literally stunned to receive a silver award for the boxy lad. Thank you to everyone who hunted me down to say it looked good. Another great event from all at @cultofpaint . Well organised and judged to perfection by @albert.moreto.font @thibaut.rahm @infernalbrush @andywardle_artwork @erik_swinson @arnau.lazaro thank you! Now for a good long sit down in a dark room. #horusheresy #warhammercommunity #mpo26 #thunderhawk #bloodangels

Some close ups from my #bloodangels #thunderhawk. My main idea for this was to push as hard into more 'scale model' style techniques while keeping a very familiar GW 'feel'. Obviously, I think, the edge highlighting is a fairly obvious GW inspiration (once again @infernalbrush recipe is bang on) but the oil paint streaking, hazard striping and warning texts and transfer usage were an attempt to push more into a scale modellers mindset. I wanted to keep the metallics fairly dull and 'used' with only the sparing use of a bright dot hightlight. Also, some very light coats of matte varnish helped with this. Overall, I'm super chuffed with this and I'm glad it appeared that way for others too. On to the next arm of the Blood Angels air wing for next year! 🩸🩸🩸 Thanks again for all the kind words. #warhammercommunity #adeptusastartes #paintingcompetition

Let's freaking go! Looking forward to heading south and gawping at some miraculous miniatures. I've, quite ridiculously, decided to go into Masters this year so not expecting much but I'm sure I'll have a lovely time😬 @cultofpaint #miniaturepaintingopen2026 #mpo #paintingcompetition #miniaturepainting

A #tau Broadside that I completed for @siegestudios as part of a multi phase commission. It did give me a slight urge to paint my own gundam-esque fish lads but then I realised I am loyal painter of the emperor and had a word with myself 🫡 Overcompensating for something with that massive weapon? #warhammercommunity #wh40k #greatergood #gundam

It's not all #spacemarines that I paint for @siegestudios ... Sometimes some xeno shenanigans occurs. A lovely blue #tau #ghostkeel that I completed a while back. Super happy with the depth of the blue on these dudes. The orange and white spot colours are *chefs kiss*. Excellent choice by the client 👌🏻 #gamesworkshop #commissionpainter

The looooong road to #miniaturepaintingopen2026 begins with a butt load of glazing... as per. This #thunderhawk follows in the footsteps of the #xiphoninterceptor that I entered last year so fingers crossed he turns out ok! #mpo #paintingcompetition

Here we go again... A loyalist this time. A chapter good at boarding actions or siege warfare? Don't think I'll do any of the big ones. A successor? Aren't #souldrinkers supposed to be great at ship to ship actions? Maybe #howlinggriffons? Or even a #darkangels successor. Any ideas? Slightly smaller than his chaotic brother but still a chunky lad. Mini designed by @sedivalle Printed by @beowulf_miniatures_printing #saturnineterminator #warhammerpainter

What a day! Thanks @chillcon_uk , it was a great event. Lots to see. Lots to do. Bumped into some familiar faces and some new ones! As ever, I'm sorry if I said 'nice to meet you' to people I've already met! My memory is shocking! Great to catch up with @johnydmatthews_tattoo , @blackmantleofficial lads, @41stmillenium_dave , @orangebrushes , @savage_ork_guy , @ghost_paint_killaaa , @oakes_atherley , @warpminiatures and many more! Oh, and in its last event before heading to the retirement shelf the #bloodangel #xiphoninterceptor caught another win! Grateful to receive the Best Vehicle. AND the #nightlord Terminator from @sedivalle managed a Finalist pin! Happy with that🤘🏻(unfortunately I seem to have misplaced one of my pins during pack up😦) Tired but home. I'll be back next year👍🏻 #chillcon #wargaming

A closer look at #gadriel that I finished up for a @siegestudios Patreon tutorial. What a great mini. More banners needed, this one is a blinder. #ultramarines #spacemarine2 #warhammerofficial #wh40k
