There are a lot of different takes on the Flower Knight. This makes sense, it is an absolutely brilliant miniature.There are a lot of different ways you can go with him that would work. For this one, I went with a more muted interpretation and mix of oxidized gold and steel armor with sort of ...

The first wedding cake toppers that I made all involved Zombies.Over the years, I’ve made quite a few more, but I definitely have a love for the zombie survivor wedding cake toppers.One of the variants that a client had me create was that rather than create zombies that climb the cake, we just have a ...

Papa Nurgle’s Rust Something about Nurgle is always fun. Maybe it is the way that steel aspects start having flesh like diseases.One of the main aesthetics of this force was the rust.
