Ork Looted Titan Claw

Nov

2019

Orks are terrific, aren’t they? While the aesthetics and logic behind most 40k factions tries to toe the line between Full Blanche and minimally plausible weapons of war, the Space Orks just embrace the most absurd logic (a red paint job actually makes it go faster).This conversion was created by my client- and I really ...

Kissing Gamers Wedding Cake Topper

Nov

2019

The way I started making wedding cake toppers was kind of a process. Really, it started out with someone realizing that I could sculpt, and asking me to make a cake topper with a zombie bride and groom in a gas mask. It was very romantic.After I made that one, other people came to me ...

I got the chance to paint up some miniatures for a project to bring the Modest Medusa webcomic into the minaitures world.These were all sculpted by Brian Phelps, and I think every one of them sculpts is super cute. I’m going to get to do some more of them for backers, since the project is ...

2019

I feel that there’s little reason to deny that the primarch miniatures that Forge World has released are some of the best minis ever sculpted for Games Workshop.Unfortunately, I lost the pictures we took of the first primarch I had the opportunity to paint, but I got good pictures of this one.This is Sanguinius, one ...

Wedding Cake Topper Bride in a Silver Dress

Oct

2019

A lot of the fantasy cake toppers that I get are from couples who like to do things a little different.Often, brides don’t like wearing the traditional all white dress. There are a lot of interesting possibilities (I’ve made brides in red dresses, blue dresses and even black dresses). But this is the first time ...

For the past while, I’ve been playing through a campaign of Gloomhaven, and I’ve been constructing all of the minis I would need as we went.And all of them are in Chibi style. To keep this gallery spoiler free, I’ve put the secret characters behind these links. There are still a few that I need ...

Mermaids throughout folklore have been presented varyingly as dangerous Sirens or good fairies of the sea.But clearly they’re all the offspring of Dagon’s deep ones. Everyone who has ever visited Innsmouth knows the origins of half fish people.Anyway, here’s a cake topper I made for a couple that wanted Cthulhu and his mermaid bride adorn ...

I created this mini a little while ago, but for some reason I missed showing him off.This is my chibi version of the Manhunter nemesis monster for Chibi Kingdom Death. The core mini started its life as a cowboy robot from Rail Raiders Infinite, so he’s come a long way to get here.For the base, ...

I really love to attend Reapercon. Of the whole convention circuit, it is the one most focused on miniature painting (with all of the classes and events geared very much toward painting.The crowning event of the convention is the painting competition. Each miniature is ranked individually (and can be awarded a bronze, silver or gold ...

House Pride Wedding Cake Toppers

2019

I’ve done a number of cake toppers where brides and grooms (especially brides) have had me give them house scarves, and often wands to go with them.I’ve really enjoyed making them, and I really like seeing what house they’ve been sorted into. So far, I’ve had brides from all four of the original houses, but ...
