I pulled a few of you images to my desktop as inspiration and a guide for projects for me in the future (simple things you do so well such as the windows on flyers, holes in buildings, your bridge and of course your miniature painting).

Congratulations on brilliant work!

No problem! Glad they are an inspiration to you.

Mind boggling, well done sounds trite.

Thank you

Ride of the Worm King won gold in MV's Bananalicious contest! Thanks to those two for running it. I will patiently await my leg lamp.

In other news, a display for Clash for the Cure charity raffle is next! Orboros army in a working fountain display.

Got a Glottkin on my mind...

From deep in the woods somewhere in Indiana, I have returned with a Hordes army for this year's Clash for a Cure.

Clash is a large independent Warmahordes tournament the weekend of September 18th in Killeen, Texas raising money for the American Cancer Society. This display and army will be a raffle prize, all proceeds going to the charity. To get directions and register:

The display is made from a working fountain, heavily reworked with clay and other materials to represent the magical and ancient forests the vengeful forces of Orboros dwell in. The original shape was heavily built up to represent terrain in miniature scale, as well as to change the water flow to allow for display of models.

Most importantly, go to the event and buy tickets! You could win this display as well be supporting a great cause.

Wow that is amazing, I'd be afraid of knocking models into the water

Stone is waterproof, right?

Also, steady hands

"Chimichanga, chimichanga, chimichanga!"

My latest army commission - a Deadpool theme Elysian army with custom backdrop. "The Goon Army" of toadies and foot soldiers ready to do the dirty work when Deadpool is busy making tacos.

Much careful thought and time were put into research and creating the personality of the army and display. The process was a blast and an extra treat on top of what was already a great group of models and scheme.

Interested in a uniquely themed army? You are in the right place, so drop me line!

That is just outstanding work! Perfectly captures the Merc with a Mouth

So much personality in this army is awesome!

Love the slogans, well done Sir

Good ol' Cliche Warehouse

Another stunner of an army, well smashed out. Maybe the one downside is the lack of cameos by other DP standouts, but that may well not have been part of the order, so meh!

As Alice said, all the best people are. Thanks.

In the fresh brightness of the near future, someone is going to be playing Space Hulk! This is the fourth commission set I have done over the years, and always enjoy the challenge of matching them to the box art. The bases as usual are Dragonforge Tech Deck bases integrated in with the original bases using plastic stock. They always add a little more professional look than the stock bases.

Want a similar Space Hulk set, or have your heart set on a Blood Angel or 'Nid army? You are in the right place, so drop me a line. Until next time.

Fantastic

Wow what an impressive number of unique and well painted armies. I like all the colours. Good on you, hope you have many more years of such productivity and many customers.

I am particularly amused by the where's wally marine, and especially impressed by the radiant child titan.

Thank you both!

I have returned from a long journey to the frozen north, and brought back for your viewing pleasure a massive Ogre army with an icy theme. The paint scheme for this army was very particular, and a fun challenge, based on the client's taste in older fantasy art and specific tastes in color. I have painted so many armies now that it is second nature, painting is it seems my natural resting state, so the added mental exercise of the original and unique armies that have been coming through are a lot of fun and add another layer of enjoyment to the process. I feel I nailed his original mental vision without a doubt, and that is as rewarding as actually finishing such a large army.

Great things are in store for the rest of the year and 2016. Up next is a project of 28 Imperial Knights in one go, and of course the new year and the wrap up of 2015, with a look back at this year's projects. Until then have a wonderful holiday season!

Go to the blog for all 100 images.

I do love me some Ogres with alternate skin tones - or scores of them in this case

Beautiful work all over, and of course special props for the ice dragon

Good luck with the knights!

Gorgeous army. I don't even know how painting like this is possible.

WOW on the Orges

Thanks as always guys

Your work is both humbling and inspiring at once, thanks for your continued posts.

Thank you, that means a great deal. I don't get to post as often as I would like outside of updates, always working away, but glad people other than the client enjoy the work as well.

That army is amazing! It's good to see newly painted WHFB armies out there!

But I MUST know....where did you get that dragon???

Absolutely amazing as always, the hue of the blue/violet/purple is superb.

Four different schemes, five different clients, one massive update to kick off 2016. One of the biggest projects I have ever done and it feels good to get them posted! It would be a shame to post all 200 images and all groups at once and drown any one out, so here is an overview of the project and a few teaser images of the individual groups. Over the course of the next few weeks each group will be posted individually, which consist of:

Terryn 1 (5) - Traditional Terryn heraldry with a gifted Archon from the Mechanicum.
Terryn 2 (3) - Terryn with a twist in the heraldry.
Rebel Admech (14) - A dark version of traditional Admech
House Aeschylid - Unique purple and white house to accompany a future Sons of Medusa army.
House Yakuza - Koi, Samurai, and Sakura Knight. A fun and off the wall exercise in blending Imperial and Japanese inspiration.

Plenty for everyone, from the traditional Terryn to the wild Yakuza knights. All blended by hand over solid basecoat, giving a realistic, deep and smooth finish. Bases built out of clay for the most part. All resin pinned with 2mm brass rod, and long torso rods for transport. Quite a few conversions and lots of posing work as well.

Thanks to all clients involved for being a part, and coming along for the ride. Sad it's over, but there's always more to paint. Back to work!
