    Don Hernandez - Degra Miniatures

    Lord of the Flies...

    Here is my latest work. It is my own take on the new GW plastic Nurgle Lord miniature. I did a little conversion to reposition his arms as I didn't want him in the same position as all the others I've seen. Also you mihgt notices he has a mostly intact stomach now! All metallic areas are done...

    Hasslefree Tiriel

    Heya, Here is my take on Hasslefree's Tiriel. For me this was an exercise in NMM, I know the area's that could be improved but like all things if I never said it was finished then I'd never move onto the next point of learning. Anyway, I'm happy with how she turned out, especially as it was my...

    Using raw materials on bases.

    Heya, I see a lot of people using bits of twig, dried branches etc on their mini bases these days. I was just wondering how long these bases will last, I mean as wood does rot and decompose how would you go about preserving it? If your doing a commission for someone, I'm sure the person paying...

    Good Painting Light - Comparison of four.

    So I've recently been thinking of upgrading to a better quality lamp for painting under - more light, better light for less eye strain and better colour matching etc. I've narrowed it down to these four models. If possible, maybe you know about the manufacturers or maybe you've owned one of...
