Stahly
Stahly is the founder of Tale of Painters. He lives in Craftworld Hamburg, located in the north of Germany, where he walks the Path of the Graphic Designer. He transitioned from Lego to Games Workshop models at the tender age of 11 and didn't look back ever since. He is known for bold colour schemes and sharp edge highlights, which he paints with typical German perfectionism (one of the reason he is such a notoriously slow painter).
Ultramarines Assault Terminators Painting III
I finished the armour and painted the gold areas. Different to the ‘Eavy Metal paintjob I used much more gold on the models so they will fit better to my regular marines which are from the 2nd company. All the currently grey areas will become...
Ultramarines Assault Terminators Painting II
I started highlighting the armour. I must say my brush control skills when applying extreme edge highlights have suffered while painting Skaven. I have to do a lot of correcting.
Ultramarines Assault Terminators Painting I
Today I primed the four Terminators and did the bases for them. I will finish them in groups of two. I basecoated the first pair blue and did the blacklining.
More Assembling Fun with Ultramarines
I assembled a fourth Terminator (second from the left) and started basing them. The Terminator Seargent has to wait unfortunately, I need some bitz from him that aren’t available from any bitz seller at the moment. But to make it up, I decided to paint...
Ultramarines Terminators Assembling
And now for something completely different… After a lot of painting Skaven, I thought it would be great to work on something for my other armies. With Grey Knights beeing all the rage lately, I dug out a box of Close Combat Terminators I bought...
Skaven Warlord Painting IV – Finished?
This guy should be pretty much done (apart from tidying up some mistakes maybe), however I’m not happy about how the blood on the blade turned out. I’m going to look for some blood tutorials and probably repaint it.
Skaven Warlord Painting III
Hopefully I will be able to finish him tomorrow!
Skaven Warlord Painting II
Progress on the green clothes, the fur and the bronze armour.
Showcase: Skaven Giant Rats
This is my Giant Rats regiment. As you notice, I didn’t use the Packmaster models that come with the Rat Ogre kit but used suitable models from the Clanrat sprues. I did this because the design of the old Packmasters doesn’t suit the recent Skaven...
Skaven Warlord Painting I
After finishing the Giant Rats I started painting my slightly converted Island of Blood Warlord. It’s a really fun model to work with, I’m especially looking forward to paint the severed heads.
