Ork Tinboyz! We Painted Classic, 40k 2nd Edition Miniatures along with the new Red Gobbo Tinboy

Lucas sent us his classic, Ork Tinboyz to repaint, along with the new, Vostroyan Tinboy that came with the 2025 Red Gobbo mini. I’d never heard of tinboyz before. It was fun learning about them and painting some up.

These were painted to Exhibition Quality.

Dragonlance Painting: We Built a Diorama for a Ral Partha Red Dragon of Krynn

Dragonlance was one of those things my parents would never have let me read if they had known what it was about. Not because they had kept up with the Satanic Panic around Dungeons & Dragons. They didn't even know what D&D was. It was because Dragonlance would have seemed obviously too fun.

They were of the opinion that I should be reading Dickens -- the kind of stuff forced on kids by parents who hadn't read Dickens themselves. My sister, who liked Dickens but hated me, encouraged this.

Thus it was that it wasn't till my teen years that I could return to things that were obviously fun. By then though we’d moved back to Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka in the 90s was quite the cultural backwater. You couldn’t find Dragonlance in bookstores (though you did find Dickens). I only encountered it when a friend from New Zealand lent a couple of books - and taught me about this thing called Dungeons and Dragons. That was in 1993.

It wasnt until I went to college in the US that I finally came across it again. By then, however, it had already peaked and gone. There were so many other things in those expanding early days of mass Internet access to steal a young person’s attention - like White Wolf games, Shadowrun, and 3rd Edition.

As such, I was surprised and pleased when we were asked to paint a Ral Partha Red Dragon of Kryn for him and put it in a little diorama. Always nice to be asked to work on a piece of the D&D heritage. I'm also always a sucker for a diorama.

Here's the one we put together. The main components were 3D printed. The flames were sculpted, and the acrylic case was put together by hand.

This was painted to Exhibition Quality.

One Page Rules (OPR) Wood Elves - 3D Printing and Painting an Army

We landed a commission to print-and-paint a large Wood Elves army for One Page Rules.

I quite like One Page Rules, particularly Grimdark Firefight and Grimdark Future. However, we don't often get to work with OPR's own miniatures.

Here, A client sent us a bunch of his WoodElf 3D files (STLs) for us to print and paint on his behalf.

These work well as proxies for the old Games Workshop Wood Elves Army. The detail on the sculpts is not quite as advanced, but it's getting there. Some figures, like the Eternal Guardian Ancient, are quite excellent.

These were all 3d printed and painted to Exhibition Quality.

Rangers Of Shadow Deep - Some 3D Print-and-Paint Miniature Painting Service

Rangers of Shadowdeep is a cooperative or solo wargame by Joseph McCullough. He also did Frostgrave. If you haven't tried Frostgrave, I recommend it.

Rangers of Shadowdeep is a solo wargame slash group game against the environment. In it, rangers patrol a kingdom's border against the monsters that come with an encroaching cloud of darkness. The game has a bunch of scenarios you can play through. I've not played the game yet myself but the rules look promising.

We were asked to do some 3D printing and miniature painting service for some figures for the scenarios. Here's what we did.

Warhammer 40k - We Painted Some Drukhari In Showcase Quality!

We got to do a bit of Dark Eldar Miniature Painting Service, or Drukhari, as we're supposed to call them now... I love the Dark Eldar. They are extremely classy sculpts.They also have great stock colors going for them. The contrast of cooler tones and bright highlightcolors make good contrast. The sharp, hard edges accent the smooth, graceful lines.

These sculpts are more than ten years old and they still look excellent. It speaks for the quality of the sculpting - and the team that designed them. I hope we'll be painting these Dark Eldar for quite a bit more before they finally get new sculpts.

We painted up some Car Wars!

Some Steve Jackson Games Car Wars.

We’ve painted post-apocalypse cars before, some we made ourselves (Gaslands - hell of a game).

The nicest we’ve ever seen though are these Car Wars minis. The sculpts are great.

These were painted to Showcase Quality.

About Car Wars:

In the game, players design and build their own vehicles using a variety of components such as engines, tires, weapons, and armor. They then use these vehicles to engage in combat with other players' vehicles. Combat is resolved using a combination of dice rolls and calculations based on the characteristics of the vehicles and weapons.

Car Wars is known for its detailed and customizable gameplay, as well as its dark and grim setting. It has inspired a number of spin-off games and has a dedicated fan base.

Flames Of War Hungarians: Historical Wargame Miniature Painting Commission

One of the less-well known Axis armies. A mix of domestic units and German gear.

Easy to forget the Hungarians were on the Axis side.

To be fair, VictorOrban is kinda on the Axis side now....

The minis are painted in Showcase and Exhibition Qualities.

Painting Star Wars Imperial Assault: Remember These?

I was mad excited when we first started getting Imperial Assault miniatures to paint. Besides the West End Game Star Wars metal figures which we’d get from time to time (which looked terrible), I believe, Imperial Assault were the first Star Wars plastics of known characters and infantry that we had seen.

I a bit surprised when Star Wars Legion came out shortly afterwards with very similar sculpts, though somewhat improved (especially the stormtroopers. I imagine those are as hard to sculpt as they can be to paint). I felt that Imperial Assault hadn't really finished its day in the sun.

As such, I was quite pleased when a client recently asked us if we could paint his Imperial Assault collection.

I like to think we did them a lot more justice this time around than we could have back when they first came out. These were all painted to Exhibition Quality.

We painted up some Adeptus Titanicus miniatures!

This was a fun little army of Horus Heresy Adeptus Titanicus figures we got to paint. The color schemes were nice and bold. I like how they present as a group. The client picked schemes that gave an even balance of brighter and darker tones. I think this makes for a strong overall composition, both for individual figures and as a force on the table.

Warhammer 40k: Painting Fulgrim – Daemon Primarch of Slaanesh, and his Traitor Bro Buddies

Got to do Fulgrim along with his Daemon Primarch buddies; Angron, Mortarion and Magnus.

Was the first time I think we had, doing Fulgrim. You have to wonder. They dropped the ball pretty bad — but they’ got to become warp daemons.

Painting Wargames Atlantic's Eisenkern Stormtroopers

If you’ve not looked up Wargames Atlantic, you should. They’ve put out quite a few plastic kits. A bunch are 40k adjacent of course, but they do pretty much everything (I picked up a set of their Napoleonic British Riflemen to make Sharpe and his Chosen Men. If you don’t know who those are, Sean Bean has you covered. You’re welcome!).

Here we got to work on their Eisenkern - Sci-Fi, carapace armored infantry sorts with a lot of nice guns.

The kits are bit subtle - it is VERY easy to overlook details like the sqaud leader head versus the comms officer head… However, they a good kits. They fit together well, and the detail is excellent.

We painted a ‘90s Vintage High Elf Army for Warhammer the Old World

This was a fun one! The client’s key request was to get this army painted in the style shown in the 4th and 5th Generation High Elves Warhammer Armies books.

In addition to just straight forward painting, there were some other concerns we had to sort in order to get that proper retro look. Namely banners, old school green flock, freehand painting.

We could scan the army books or following parts of art on the boxes. There were some units like the Swordmasters of Hoeth, which required some research online. While the images we found were low resolution, we retouched the pictures for the banner to be clearer. Figuring out the shapes and elvish ruins became an easy process with existing reference materials.

With trial and error, we managed to recreate the banner designs. After scaling them to the right size, we made metal banners by cutting metal sheets and then put it all together.

The decals themselves are printed on special clear transfer paper, which we printed on using our office InkJet printer. 3 main coats of clear lacquer at 15 minutes apart was required after. Because the banners are primed in white, the transfers are very easily visible.

Here are a few gallery shots of the precious army in question. These were done to a mix of Showcase and Exhibition Quality:

40k: Painting the Death Korps of Krieg Army Box (With Some Friends)

Was nice to see this set in the studio. Nicer, to see new and more varied sculpts rather than just reshashes of the Forge World line. The Death Korps artillery kit in particular is impressive. We magnetized all the weapons. I ordered a kit myself - going to use it with my Steel Legion.

I also need to find where my fully painted Steel Legion army got to. It’s a big studio.

Also featured here is a Baneblade tank magnetized in a way to allow it to be fielded as every variant.

Look into the Madness of Azathoth: Painting Cthulhu Death May Die

When Azathoth wakes, the world - which is all his dream - will end.

Cthulhu Death May Die does some of the nicest eldritch minis you’ll find. Each wave, them seem to get better. My favorites in this one are the Idiot God Azathoth, and ther Tsathoggua.

Azathoth - just look at that. We did the eye-things as Eldar-style gems. The tentacles meet in a central vortex. What is that? The heart of the Universe? An anus? The dreaming god does not tell.

While much more understated, the Tsathoggua is excellent. HPL describes Tsathoggua as perhaps a bat - and perhaps a frog. Every designer who has sat down to do him has had to resolve this. They usually just come down more on side than the other.

What I like about the Cthulhu Death May Die Tsathoggua is that you can’t tell. It is frog-like, bat-like, and neither, at the same time. You can’t really say he’s more one than another. Also, it has eyes everywhere.
