Poppy and Tina had gone to Austria for 6 weeks and it hit me pretty hard. I think I get some grieving or depressive episode! I hadn’t painted much but this just plopped out somehow.
A place for me to dump my Warhammer

Day 1 Day 2 – Using inks for the first time. I actually had never used inks before, I kind of thought they were absolutely awful. As when I used them as a child, they left horrible “circle marks”. The recess or left over stains from where the ink was applied. However now I’m trying […]
I actually didn’t remember buying this model at all, at the time I was just buying to show my mate some support with his first model. Well also that combined with my being in, u know, the “buying mode”. But now that rain storm cloud has passed and I’m completely out of that, combined with […]
I am pretty sure I got the idea from Alfonso and his Patreon with using a toy to paint up and have some experience with clean volumes. So here I was, ordering Saitama at 8″ tall and £25 from ebay. So of course, I had to clean him, which I hadn’t thought about, but couldn’t […]
4/5th of Febuary – Starting Avatar Having just “finished” the Asrumen statue I was skimming through the Eldar 3rd Edition Codex just as i normally do to comfort myself, I bloody love that codex lol. I saw upon the red/darker version of the avatar in the book. This was actually the original model and colours […]
I can honestly say I’ve never come over a little q…. David Brent 2001 So this little guy, being so bloody big I had no idea if I should or could paint it. With that in mind, I just thought “lets bloody go for it and not give 2 shits about how he turns out” […]
I don’t really know how to say this without sounding like its paid for sponsored 🤓 But all I can say is: TL;DR If you’re not on Alfonso Giraldes (Banshee’s) Patreon you should be. It has changed my painting life in such a way that I cannot not tell you!! So much that I think […]
Other than Biel Tan Eldar, this group of models have been the ones more than any other than in the Warhammer Universe, which means all models, that I wanted to paint the most. Original released in 1999 Command Squad. As much of my childhood models, I want to recreate the shit out of it lol […]
Finally got my hands on one of these buggers… This was the one… (one of the ones) that I looked at with utter dread. Having such open spaces on the model I really had no idea how I would tackle the model and not make it look boring, in the end I was happy with […]
Honestly I cannot believe this is 5 years old already. I feel shame and embarrassment lol I also think its much better than I realised! So this is obviously the sculpt that an Ex-Staff member did for me, much love for that! Based on Mark Gibbons Artwork Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 […]
I think I will need to revisit this one tbh, I painted this in around 6h or something very fast by my standards, just to get it out. I was deep in lessons with Alfonso at the time and everything was about speed and not thinking about it too much! Lessons I’ve learnt to apply […]
Well this was at the peak of my “i’m painting ye baby” phase… that got lost once I started lessons and doing the larger scale. Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Final
2017 and I was hot and ready to compete in GD 😀 I had wanted to paint this miniature since I was a small lad… Looking at these makes me want to do it again truth be told! Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 – Trying to get the fade “correct” on the […]
So I have wanted to paint harlequins since I first got into the hobby. At least, since I first knew of the existence. I remember it so clearly, getting the codex that was in the journal and just being awe struck by the models but most of all the painting on them. I actually […]
I’ve wanted to get one of these painted for about 17 years. Found 2 days spare (ill off work) and smashed it out the park. Only 9 more to go. 4th of April 2016 I’m writing this 3 years after I painted it. Fucking hell, 3 years! I always started off with a complete undercoat […]
Said it before, I just love the “Eldar Craftworld” version of Ulthwe ever since then I’ve wanted to recreate that army. Here is my Fire Prism attempt. I started this on the 17.01.2016 Although I also moved home on 14.02.2016 I think painted for about 2 weeks before the move and I didn’t paint for […]
Well I’m writing this in Jan 6th 2023… so with some perspective, but let me tell you, at the time I thought I was the bees knees.. Now I know, right now with my current ability I have so much improving to do! Painted July 2015 btw Am I embarrassed yes!! Will that feeling probably […]
So I have finally got to painting my wraithguard after maybe 16 years of own them 🙂 It took a while, I need to learn how to speed paint and not care about every single thing lining up perfectly 🙁 But here they are: And here is the sort of not really well documented journey. […]
