Stahly needs your help!
In 2022/23 I want to make a big dream come true: After 10 years of blogging only in my spare time, I want to reduce my working hours at my job so I have more time for videos and Tale of Painters. To make this work financially, I need your support on Patreon.
Tutorial collection: Kill Team: Octarius
This week the new Kill Team Starter Set is on pre-order, and the Ork Kommandos, Death Korps of Krieg, and the Octarius Killzone terrain are also available individually. If you don’t know yet how to paint your models, we’ve got you covered with a selection of tutorials.
Tutorial: How to paint turquoise “molten lava” blades

Review: New Kill Team starter set vs. Kill Team: Octarius
In this review we take a closer look at what’s in the new Kill Team starter set, and, more importantly, what isn’t. Is this a better purchase than Kill Team: Octarius? Find out in this post.

Another “one coat painting solution” enters the market. But are The Army Painter’s new Speedpaints really as good or even better than Contrast? I received the Speedpaints Mega Set early, and here are my thoughts about them. Plus: a hand-painted comparison chart of all 24 Speedpaints.
Review: Warhammer Underworlds Blackpowder’s Buccaneers
Arrr, Warhammer Underworlds is currently knee deep in its fifth season, Harrowdeep, and today we take a look at the first new Warband expansion: Gorlok Blackpowder’s motley crew of Gnoblars, his trusty parrot Shreek, and even an angry looking monkey. Gather round, mateys, and check this out.

Showcase: Dark Angels Space Marine Heroes Brother Promethor
Ho-ho-holy Terra and season’s greetings! By the throne, I added another model from the Space Marine Heroes Series 1 to my collection. This time I chose the Unforgiven, the secretive Dark Angels chapter, perfect for the plasmagun-toting Brother Promethor. Check out all the pictures in this post.
