    Topsy

    Topsy (short for Tale of Painters System) is our little skull-shaped servitor mascot. Here at Tale of Painters, he (she? it? they?) looks after all the posts that don't have a specific author from our editorial team. These include, for example, guest posts, announcements, status updates, or summaries.

    Showcase: Maggotkin of Nurgle Lord of Blights by FruitBear

    Showcase: Ultramarines Chief Librarian Tigurius by Aurélie

    I just finished Chief Librarian Tigurius, the new Primaris version. Hope you like it! As you can seem, I painted the blue armour in a reflective, non-metallic metal style, with a contrasting light cream for the robes. Hope you are well during the Corona crisis....
