Fallen Dwarves - Wave 2 resins

I'm a bit behind, these were released about a month ago!

Anvil have once again delivered 100% on their molding and casting. Top stuff.










#ShoutOut# Supreme Littleness, laser cut terrain

Yesterday I went to Claymore, the annual Edinburgh miniature wargame show run by SESWC (South East Scotland Wargames Club).

It was my second ever visit to the show, the first time being two years ago (last year I think I was on holiday.) It's quite a sin since the venue is 10 minutes walk from my house!

Anyway, I got talking to nice chap about his Romano-British display table which was based on/inspired by a Roman fort that was located at Cramond. The actual site is about a mile from where I live so it was a nice local theme for the show.

Turns out the displays creator is also Edinburgh based and designs and produces laser cut terrain - Supreme Littleness. http://www.supremelittleness.co.uk/index.htm

Really nice stuff, please check out his website!

Relocation - new nerd studio

I recently moved house. After a ridiculous amount of work my new nerd studio is ready to take shape.

Not as much natural light as I would have liked but at least I have a good view for resting my eyes during hobby sessions. 

Lots to unpack and unfortunately I'll need an Ikea trip to kit out the room... hopefully I'm only weeks away from doing some sculpting!

Karkadann assault armour - Fallen Dwarves

Here's the initial ideas for Karkadann armour, Fallen Dwarf style.

No laughing please, I've not committed enough time to develop in the digital art space!

Thematically this is heavy linebreaker assault cavalry. I've consciously gone for a larger mount for the Dwarves instead of the usual pony/goat/pig cavalry trope associated with the race.

I'm still undecided so more sketches are required, though I think the large crossbow mount is off the table... in favor of a huge crossbow towed along on it's own carriage by the beast.

#ShoutOut# Anvil Industry Afterlife - Unity Council Spectre Operative characters

99% finished paint jobs, just a few touch ups left.

Brilliant mini's, it's only during painting these that you really appreciate them... can't recommend them enough.

These two mini's come in a pack - http://anvilindustry.co.uk/AFTERLIFE/Unity-Council/Gabriela-Aguilar

25mm heroic paint jobs

Here's my first pass at paint jobs on these guys.

This is a personal project aligned to a grim dark heresy range: I just wanted small scale humans to make the genetic super marines look suitably imposing!
