I really love the variety of concepts that I get to create in wedding cake toppers. In this instance, my client had a Victorian theme in mind. I guess it is because the old Chaosium game had a Victorian setting option, I really think of this couple as fighting Cthulhu. To be perfectly fair, I ...

When some warlocks and warcasters go epic, they don’t change all that much. This is not the case with Thagrosh, who seems to be slowly transforming into a full on dragon. For this project, my client wanted me to create a very different look for Thagrosh. I pitched him a couple ideas, and he really ...

We all have our fandoms, and here’s a particular one that I haven’ been able to pay homage to before. Here’s a couple that look like they might be escaping one of the more dangerous facilities in the universe. It has been really fun to work on some of these cosplayer sets that where the ...

Here are two more Chibi conversions I made of Kingdom Death characters. These are the first two that I made that weren’t for my own collection. I’m still quite fond of how they turned out, and I kind of wish I’d gotten to keep them (I might have to remake them later).

When I first started planning a Chibi Kingdom Death project, I looked at all of the expansion monsters and considered which ones would just work well with chibis. I concluded that Spiderlings were already mostly head- so they’d work perfectly with almost no changes. For Spidicules herself, I just had to replace the dead survivor ...

Halo was the first FPS that I played with my wife, so I feel like I really get people who would like it displayed on top of their wedding cake. Here are two very different sets of Halo statues that I made to top wedding cakes.

Here are the minis that I painted up for my Widower’s Wood set. I’ve always loved Gatormen, and these minis were all loads of fun. One thing to note is that Widower’s Wood makes use of the different colored plastic used for the minis. If you paint them up, you need to have a way ...

The Dung Beetle Knight is one of Kingdom Death’s more iconic monsters, and one of the more difficult ones to deal with. Here is a DBK that I got to do for a client. The mini is absolutely fantastic- the hardest thing about painting him is that he’s been painted up very well quite a ...

Quite a number of times, I’ve made cake toppers that included pets (usually dogs or cats, but there was that one couple who had me include an alpaca). Anyway, here are two couples that did just that. One of them had more casual clothing than usual, while the other couple was definitely defending themselves from ...

I’ve been showing off the conversions from my Chibi Kingdom Death set for a while now- but I realize that I’ve neglected to post up good pictures of the survivors that I’ve made. Here is a group of them. Since this is an ongoing project, I’ll be continuously making more, so there will never be ...
