Blogomancy: The Forbidden Art of Raising a Blog From the Dead

A little over one year after ending this blog, I have decided to reopen it.

*Pause for gasps*

I know, I know. What am I thinking? If the elder council find out what I'm doing... In any case, to those of you who have perused my blog before, welcome back; to newcomers simply, welcome.

To kick off this revival of Tiny Works of Art we have for your pleasure some very recent orc characters painted to a tabletop standard. I'm really pleased with them and may have acquired a greenskin fetish working on them, so expect to see some of my own orcs and goblins on here before the year is out. (These were painted for someone who prefers to do their own bases, hence they have been left blank.)


This was also my first go with some of the new GW technical paints, namely Typhus Corrosion, Ryza Rust, and Blood for the Blood God. (These were part of an Xmas gift from my fantastic girlfriend!) I absolutely love these paints. They produce fantastic results for tabletop models, and I look forward to using them on some Tabletop +1 pieces to see how they fare there. I have high hopes for Blood for the Blood God, but I suspect typhus corrosion will be reserved for TT stuff. The texture makes precise application difficult.
