While I haven’t posted for a while, that doesn’t mean that I haven’t been painting. In fact, I have finished a few paintjobs and today is the big cleaning day: Even before I put my airbrush into the bath, tons of paint residue came out – especially my needle canal looked pretty bad. I guess […]

Josh from Zombicide

I am starting to really, really like fast and worry-free in-between paintjobs… Quick, dirty and with a warm fuzzy feeling afterwards. Boy was this one here fun – one of the survivor miniatures from the Zombicide boardgame. Casting quality and the material are not for lovers of super-sharp detailed miniatures. It is a gaming miniature […]
US Airborne bust WIP #5

I’ve been painting quite a bit over the past few weeks, but I wasn’t able to post any picture updates. After the painting most of my US airborne’s field gear & backback separately, I am now starting to assemble everything to see how the overall light situation works. I am mostly happy how it turned […]
Bolt Action – Mission marker and more Germans

Two more Germans are completed and while I was finishing up their bases, I also slapped paint on an allied mission marker which I had already prepared for painting and sitting next to my workbench for months. I am pretty happy with how the model below came out. What I like about ArtizanDesigns models are […]
WIP update (US airborne bust, Bolt Action Germans)

US airborne bust – Work in progress #3

Banshee’s painting workshop in Pfungstadt, Germany – What a blast!

I had the honor of hosting a painting workshop with the talented and famous Alfonso Giraldes aka Banshee at my place. Man, what a blast that was: Tons of really good input on colors and color theory, a great group of people and last but not least a big motivational push just by hanging out […]
Bolt Action – German reinforcements and group shot

Took a small break from the US airborne bust and grew my small German force for Bolt Action with 5 additional men. Time to get back to the bust before I continue with more Germans…
US airborne bust – Work in progress #2

The straps and shoulder pads from the backpack are done for now. Moving on to the rifle. This is my first attempt at painting the wood grain pattern on as the surface of the resin model is completely smooth.
