Stahly
The mysterious masked Stahly is the founder and mastermind of Tale of Painters. Hailing from Craftworld Germany, he has been walking the Path of the Warhammer Collector since childhood. Over the decades, he has painted multiple armies and countless warbands and miniatures. When he's not painting miniatures or working on his library of hand-painted colour swatches, he's testing the latest paints, tools and model kits with German precision and a no non-sense attitude.
Skaven Warlord Painting II
Progress on the green clothes, the fur and the bronze armour.
Showcase: Skaven Giant Rats

The Monthly White Dwarf Review: April 2011

Showcase: Skaven Doomwheel
This model was a blast to paint. It also went quicker as I thought. When I first saw the model back when it was released, I wasn’t so sure about the massive banner. However, as I held the model in my hands, I must say...
Giant Rats Painting II
I painted another batch of Giant Rats. This time I used a slightly different fur tone. Next up will be the packmasters, then the final batch of Giant Rats.
