Stahly (Tale of Painters)

Long time no painting update

I haven't posted a painting update for quite a while, but I haven't been idle. Since the Proteus is finished (post coming soon to Tale of Painters), I assembled The Headman's Curse (the new Nighthaunt Underworlds warband) and also this little chap, a limited Edition Space Marine Captain. Last year I found a big lot of the for...

PS: If you haven't watched my Tokyo documentary video ...

This week on Tale of Painters

Welcome to all new patrons :) This week is a bit slower on the blog. Garfy posted his Cursling yesterday, while I'm busy to finish editing my Tokyo hobby video for the weekend. I'll also try to cram in a short review of the new Age of Sigmar Harbingers box sets.

I've also started to preparing next month's Patreon exclus...

Proteus progress

How are you doing? Excited for 10th Edition yet? Well, after finishing the two Termagant models (tutorial coming very soon!), I went back to my Proteus and made some good progress. The hull is finished, now all I need to do is paint the guns and bitz. Hope to finish it this week!

Hey, just a quick one: Wanted to let you know I updated the one coat paint chart to version 1.2. Unfortunately, I missed three Speedpaints (Pastel Yellow, Holy White, and Plasmatic Bolt). Please download the corrected version here: https://www.patreon....

Painting Termagants

Welcome to all new patrons. Hope anyone who wanted a copy of Leviathan got one  yesterday! Last week I painted two of the new Termagant models for an upcoming tutorial. I chose Kraken, but with a twist of my own, with more purple-greyish skin and a more salmon-like colours for the gun and carapace highlights. Can't wait ...

Of combat gauges & Proteus tanks

This weekend I didn't get any painting done at all, since I was visiting Prague und checking out the hobby stores there. Last week I experimented with some new oil-based weathering techniques on this Kill Team combat gauge. I wanted to repaint my gauges since I wasn't super happy with my first scheme. I also added a few more ...

This week on Tale of Painters

Yesterday I shared the Zombies I painted for my Shambling Undead Blitz Bowl team, and for the weekend you can look forward to a review of Kill Team: Ashes of Faith PLUS a video review of Warcolour's Nostalgia 94 range.

Proteus painting

Hope you had a nice weekend! Since I've finally finished my Blitz Bowl Undead team, I started with a new project. I had the Land Raider Proteus assembled for my review, but never got around painting it, which I'm going to change now. I just wonder if I can manage to finish it before Leviathan hits, but I'm confident. This wee...

Bit of a slow week. Yesterday, Garfy shared both warbands from the Wyrdhollow set, and for the weekend, there'll be a review of Warcry: Nightmare Quest. 

This week I'm also working on the Nostalgia 94 paints review, which will be my next video. Not sure if I'll be able to finish it for Saturday, most likely it will...

Shambling Undead almost finished!

So, I got a good amount of painting done this weekend, and I'm happy to say  that my Shambling Undead Blitz Bowl team is pretty much complete. Just need to blend the transfers in, give them a final check up, and apply some varnish. Really happy with them, and I guess a tutorial for them will end up as next month's Aspect...

Here comes May's Aspect Warrior exclusive: a new masterclass PDF tutorial for painting my Killzone Moroch Sector Fronteris terrain.

My new video is out!

I'm ranking and reviewing all one coat paints in one video. This was quite a lot of work, so go give it a watch :)

Finally some painting!

I finally made some painting progress since I arrived back home. I'm currently working on the final three models for my Blitz Bowl Undead team. Enjoying them very much, I'm using a zenithal approach plus Contrast and additional glazes and highlights, a bit like Slapchop but with some extra work on the details. Works very well...

Back home!

I'm back home! And I brought a lot of loot with me. Here is all the hobby related stuff I bought (I spare you the heaps of candy I bought). I went heavy on the Gundam kits and Japanese brands, as with the weak yen and some clever tax-free shopping, these are so cheap compared to what you pay for them here, about half of what ...

Travel update

Hey guys, it‘s my final day in Japan. I wasn‘t able to go through all the pictures yet, but once I‘m home, I‘m gonna post a best of the hobby stores & places I found in Tokyo. Regular service here & on ToP will commence shortly 😊 Have a nice week.

This week on Tale of Painters

How is it going? A warm welcome to all new patrons 🙇🏻 It‘s my final week in Japan, and I visited the Gundam Factory in Yokohama today. Really awesome place, even if you‘re not into Gundam. It has an enormous life-size Gundam, 18m high, and it‘s moving!

So for the blog we had my showcase for the Sons of Horus...
