Genestealer Cultists with Cool Spectrum Tones

This was another fun job. We had to work with an existing, dark blue tone. The brief was to keep the same, evil sort of cooler tone and mood.

We added in purple and green. The tie it all together, a bit of bright red

The lights could have gone in many directions — bright blue, bright green, or yellow. Yellow of course worked well with the blue tone, and wherever you can sneak in all 3 primary colors, you do alright.

These were painted to Showcase quality.

Some Painted Chaos Space Marines, Cultists, and Accursed Cultists

I always felt Chaos Space Marines should be able to turn up with lots of maddened, baseline cultists. GW has given us plenty of nice cultist sculpts over the years. The more recent ones are no exception. These were painted to Showcase quality.

Adeptus Mechanicus: Painting the Longest Legs in Warhammer 40k

The Sydonian Skratos mini is a bit terrifying to work with because you fear it might snap somewhere inconvenient… It’s got quite the rifle though. We painted these along with a nice-sized force of Adeptus Mechanicus.

These were painted to a mix of quality levels.  

You might have wondered why such mad art leads to Ultramarines… why doesn’t it, instead, lead to more mad art?

A lot of other people have thought this, too. Not content to sit on their brushes, they used them instead to create the art style known as Blanchitsu.

Desaturation. A jaundiced palette. Warhammer Squalor. Here are some examples:

Neon Genesis-Inspired Tau Armor

These came together nicely. I had no idea where the scheme was going till the helmets were painted. These were left unbased per the client’s request.

These were painted to Showcase with Commander Farsight at Exhibition quality.

Terrain: Some Painted Fronteris Nachmund and Sector Mechanicus

Just some painted terrain. I’m happy that these are a bit less detailed than most GW terrain kits. Detail is nice, but I feel its counterproductive when terrain becomes too much work when people would rather focus their attention on their armies.

These were painted to Standard Quality.

40k: We Painted Too Much Tau and Kroot

We had the good fortune to be sent this rather large Tau and Kroot force to work on. I quite like all the blue, and mix of heavy armor and exo suits. What stood out in this force the most for me were the Stingwings and the large number of Kroot - enough for an army in their own right.

I think we’ve only done Stingwings once or twice before, and that’s in 19 years of painting. That said, 19 years of painting has taught me how little I remember of what we’ve painted…

40k: We Painted Too Much Death Korps of Krieg

I remember back in the day how Forgeworld had a field in their checkout cart where you could tell them what mini you’d most like to see them make. Each time, I would always write “Greatcoat Imperial Guard.”

Then, we got them; the Death Korps of Krieg. It got people excited in a way the Elysians didn’t quite, and even the Blanche-inspired Vostroyans did. Over the years, we’ve seen a fair number of them.

Then this army came in. There’s minis in this that I didn’t even know existed. Below are shots of the whole force on a 4x8 foot table. Below those is a second gallery with close ups of each unit type.

This entire army was painted to Exhibition Quality.

40k: Painting a Blanchitsu-Style Warband

We all have an artist, scientist, or engineer we can’t stop talking about if someone makes the mistake of prompting us. Tesla. Lovcraft. Marcus Aurelius (I have friends who can’t stop talking about Marcus Aurelius). For me, the person I’m most inspired by these days is John Blanche. His art, and even more than that, his approach to art and lore-building.

Blanche’s 40k art is particularly mad. Here are some examples of his work:

Now, you can imagine we don’t get a lot of requests to paint this way. We have no pictures like this on our site to invite this sort of work. GW does nothing to invite it either; its official art shows clean, clear painting depicting miniatures as realistically as possible.

So naturally, I had have it done on my own minis. Below are shots of an Inquisition warband done in a Blanchitsu style. It’s a mix old and new minis (1st edition Chaos Obliterators as servitors. New Sisters of Battle Arcoflagellants). Also, GW and non-GW figures - three are from Battle for Antares.

They’re so different from what we normally do, I feel like I’m looking at an art crime. I utterly love them.

These were done, as far as that makes sense given the art style, to Exhibition Quality.

40k Kill Teams: Some Black, Black Ops Kasrkins

These were a gift I did for a friend. He’s always been a strong supporter of the studio, especially in the beginning when were nobodies just trying to keep the lights on for another month.

We play a lot of One Page Rules Firefight in the studio these days (it’s like Kill Team, but much simpler to get into). It’s become the heart of a little wargaming community that’s sprung up around us.

If you ever wonder what the quality of painting looks like at our studio games, here you go :) .

40k Kill Teams: Is that a Kroot rifle or are you happy to see me?

Got to do a Kroot Kill Team this month. The Kroot are fantastic and I’m glad they’re finally getting themselves a practical army. Not just some footnotes in Chapter Approved and some resin kits.

Can’t wait till a full army of these turns up in the building.

40k: Pink Battle Sisters!

Well, mainly white, but that just frames the pink. A little tricky (white always is), but the gold offset the pink and the purple, and the basing grounds the whole look. Nice to see Arco-flagellants in this army; I feel they’re underrepresented. These (even with pink) remind me of the terrifying artwork of them in the Inquisitor rulebook.
