Stahly’s Recap of 2023 and Hobby Resolution for 2024
It’s that time of year again when we look back and review our hobby year. You can find all the models I painted in 2023 in this post, as well as my reflections on the hobby, Tale of Painters, and my plans for the coming year.
Showcase: Ultramarines Captain Mikael Fabian (inc. painting guide)
In today’s showcase post I’m featuring the limited edition webstore Space Marine Captain, which I’ve added to my Ultramarines collection as Captain Mikael Fabian of the 3rd company. The twist: as a little challenge, I used only old Citadel Colours from the previous paint range.
Video Showcase: Space Marine Heroes Series 1
I thought celebrating 10 years of Tale of Painters would be the perfect occasion to finally make one of the announcements from my 2021 hobby resolutions come true and launch my YouTube channel with my first ever video: an epic showcase for my Space Marine…
Showcase: #marchformacragge 2nd Edition 40k starter set Ultramarine (incl. paint recipes)
Today I present my entry for this years March for Macragge hobby event, a “statue” Marine model from the 2nd Edition Starter Set of Warhammer 40.000, painted to emulate the ‘Eavy Metal style back then. It’s actually the first model I painted when I started the hobby over 20 years ago! Check out more pictures on a glorious light blue gradient in this post.
Showcase: Ultramarines Lieutenant Calsius
Hi all! Today I present my finished Lieutenant Calsius from the Warhammer 40.000 Conquest magazine series. Very nice model and fun to paint. Tried to add some OSL coming from his “burning” power sword. Hope you like it. As always leave a reaction or comment…

Showcase: Ultramarines Classic Techmarine
I can’t help it, but I still like painting classic Space Marines. I didn’t own a solo Techmarine yet, and when I saw it on ebay I just couldn’t pass it up. I really enjoy this Jes Goodwin sculpt that came in a Company Command…
WIP: #new40k Indomitus Primaris Chaplain vs classic Metal Space Marines Chaplain
To celebrate the launch of the Indomitus box set and 9th Edition of #new40k Warhammer 40.000, Garfy and me thought about a special treat: Garfy will paint the new Primaris Chaplain from the Indomitus box, while I’ll paint a classic metal Chaplain from 2005, and…
WIP: Classic Ultramarines Techmarine
You say new Primaris Techmarine, I say… why not paint this classic metal Techmarine instead. This classic Jes Goodwin sculpt was released in a Company Command Squad box set just one month before Warhammer 40.000 3rd Edition arrived. I always liked this model and, as…
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….
