Step-by-step – Painting Palmenmuster (palm tree) camouflage in Autumn colors

Posted on 18. January 2017by The Author

Here we go with the first part of the long awaited series on how to paint German WW2 camouflage patterns. We’ll start with the Palmenmuster (palm tree) camo pattern for Autumn, so predominantly in brown and orange colors. I am not claiming that my way of painting camo patterns is the best way or the most […]

Quick shots from the workbench: Jedi Puppies in WW2 camouflage

Posted on 4. January 20174. January 2017by Thomas Stoesser

Sometime last year I had promised to work on tutorials for painting different German camouflage patterns and here you can see a few pre-view pics of the work that I am doing for the first tutorial on Autumn Palmtree pattern (Palmenmuster) and Autumn pea dot pattern (Erbsenmuster). I thought it would be fun to piggyback […]

Step-by-step… painting Hans

Posted on 28. August 201628. December 2016by Thomas Stoesser

Started with a German Grey base color. Well diluted… should take a couple of layers to cover. The way I am applying the color is to drag the diluted paint across the area where I am painting and to push that small drop of paint into a fold or a corner or something where the […]

Stoessi’s Heroes Update: Preview of German SS Officer

Posted on 21. May 201620. February 2017by Thomas Stoesser

I am very excited to share a preview for one of the upcoming Stoessi’s Heroes miniatures! The inspiration for this German SS Officer figure came from one of my favorite movie actors, Christoph Waltz. I love the guy’s acting, I really do.  So, I am proudly presenting this new work based on the figure of […]

Krupp L3H – For a truck full of Germans (WIP Part #2)

Posted on 8. May 201628. December 2016by Thomas Stoesser

Previously on Stoessi’s Heroes: WIPs part #1 for the Krupp truck  To intensify the dusting, I applied various mixes of pigment with a dry brush. Next, I soaked the area with thinner from MIG or turpentine. Once that dried, I worked with brush, fingers and cotton tips to remove some of the pigment in those […]

Krupp L3H – For a truck full of Germans (WIP #1)

Posted on 17. April 201628. December 2016by Thomas Stoesser

After painting quite a bit of German infantry in the past few months, I decided that it’s time to give them some wheels. Yes, I know… a regular truck is not the most impressive vehicle that the Wehrmacht had to offer, but I really like the model and it had been sitting around fully assembled […]

Bolt Action Painting Update – Germans with field caps from Warlord

Posted on 22. March 201628. December 2016by Thomas Stoesser

Getting Stoessi’s Heroes Miniatures up and running has certainly kept me busy over the last couple of months, so painting was a bit slow as a result. The good news is that I am off work for two weeks now and that the next batch of new models for Stoessi’s Heroes is already planned out and in […]

Stoessi’s Heroes – Painting splinter camo in 2 easy steps

Posted on 12. February 201628. December 2016by Thomas Stoesser

Let’s take a look at painting the splinter camo pattern on this M31 Zeltbahn that Otto is wearing.  I must say upfront that I would not want to paint a whole outfit in a camo pattern. With my way of painting, this would be waaaaay to time consuming and I’m not sure I’d be able […]

*Drum-roll*… STOESSI’S HEROES – RELEASE #1: LATE WAR GERMAN WEARING ZELTBAHN

Posted on 5. February 201628. December 2016by Thomas Stoesser

Almost a year ago I thought to myself that it is a pity that most WW2 tabletop miniatures are really not of the highest quality. If you enjoy the paining part of our hobby, this can be a bit disappointing sometimes. Enjoying the painting side of the hobby so much myself, I decided that I […]
