There's some real gems in the Citadel preslotta ranges. This mounted dwarf is great. Citadel horses are normally sculpted smooth, but this mountain pony has a shaggy texture. Brilliant.
Came home to find the storms had smashed over our giant buddleia. Meant I could spend half an hour pretending to be an Orc of Isengard.

This is the only social media that is allowing links, so I'll be posting this one a lot!
Coming Wednesday, my year of research and design on the Dutch Resistance of WW2 is coming to life! With your help!

Finished painting the classic Harlequin Doctor Who Nyssa miniature. The casting was a bit of a struggle, if you scroll back you'll see I stripped and restarted her more than twice. But I'm happy with the end result.
Also yes, I'm thinking of using a different red on the fists and the icon. I 100% blame @ontosgames.co.uk for this since I saw his fantastic Rogue Trader Crimson Fists that did that years ago and it rewrote something in my brain and now that's just how they need to look.
Can you think of any human from the 1980s Citadel range that would work well as a Knights of Harkness musician? Seems humans never really got command group releases like Orcs and Dwarfs and Skaven did.
Finally finished two other Citadel ADD69 Githyanki to go with the other.
The one on the left was painted in 2004 (and rebased in 2025), the other two fully painted in October 2026. 😬
Not sure if I've actually got any better at NMM.
We're back shipping! UK are out, the folks are sorting the overseas today/tomorrow and huzzah! So you should treat yourself

to some amazing hand sculpted, hand cast and hand packed minis of....EVERYTHING.
Made a minor tweak to Ontos' shipment tracking today, so it's one button for me to provide the tracking number and send the "order completed" email. I shall use these newfound seconds I'll save every day to SCULPT MORE MINIS.
I often put "draw a monster on the box" in my shipping notes when I place orders and see who reads them.
@nobleknightgames.bsky.social understood the assignment
