    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. By now, his collection comprises Ultramarines, Blood Angels, Aeldari of Craftworld Iybraesil, Drukhari and various Warbands, Necromunda gangs and Blood Bowl teams. 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).

    Showcase: Nighthaunt Garkorr Bladegheist Revenant (with paint recipes)

    Before I started working on Spiteclaw’s Swarm, I painted this limited edition model for my Nighthaunt collection: Garkorr, Bladegheist Revenant, available only for the 500 Warhammer stores celebration event. He will make a nice mercenary Knight of Shrouds for my Warcry warband. Check out more pictures after the jump, plus a complete list of all the paint recipes I used.

    Review: Astra Militarum Sergeant “Ripper” Jackson Store Anniversary Miniature

    Sergeant “Ripper” Jackson was originally meant to be the exclusive Warhammer store opening and anniversary model for 2021, but because of the Covid-19 situation, Games Workshop decided to make her available in all Warhammer stores and on games-workshop.com from September 12 to 20. We secured one of these limited models and take a look at what’s inside.

    Showcase: Kill Zone Sector Fronteris + Ryza Pattern Ruins (with paint recipes)

    Over the last two years, I gathered a quite sizeable terrain collection of classic Necromunda cardboard buildings and modern 40k plastic terrain kits. I never got around to taking proper group shots, but Garfy’s awesome Souldrain Forest board inspired me to present my scenery in…
