Legion of Plastic: Mini Update

Friday, 6 July 2012

Still very much a work in progress, but I think this duo will be quite a sight.

ABOUT

Welcome to Legion of Plastic, a series of artistic endeavors and musings, and a celebration of converting and painting English science-fiction miniatures. This is a space for storytelling and wild imagination in truly Gothic fashion.

Think of your favorite Dainton, Kopinski, or Boyd painting. Is your favorite art photorealistic technical exercise or a vivid statement of emotion, color, texture and artistic decision? With key focus points and detail, on a loose backdrop.

I grew up marveling John Blanche's work and the worlds and characters he birthed. My goal is to render Games Workshop art in miniature form. Raw like weather, laden with emotion, action and sense of scale.

Games Workshop has largely gone from strength to strength the past few years, yet I feel some of the core products deserve to be critically challenged. The basic Space Marine kit for example is a badly proportioned oversight, failing to capitalize the wonderful background and imagery.

My plan is to produce alternative designs and have heaps of fun.

Welcome!
