GMM’s Daemons & Mortals – Northern Exposure

kom4
Frazetta is a huge influence on how I paint Fantasy models.

My Aunt who was an amazing oil painter, collected fantasy art books and Calandars en masse, the latter of which many are hanging in my paint room today. They often solve an artistic block with a quick glance over my shoulder. “Oh, right, that’s the color I was looking for.”
So when this client showed me this list of big gribbly monsters and told me to go wild, that is what I did, drawing in all I have learned about that vibrant style and my practice from past armies such as the Adepticon Fantasy throne army.  Add in some hand made over-the-top bases, and you’ve got a force straight off a fantasy epic book cover.

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits started with Rob trying to stay motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects and share his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.

Scale model hobbyist in the 80s, miniature wargamer, and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy since 5th Edition, but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of both pewter and resin.
