- First post of 2026! One of my resolutions is to post more frequently here in the coming year. This is a quick view of some things I painted in 2025. I'm currently working on new videos for www.youtube.com/@TableReadyO... so be sure to subscribe to catch the latest projects.
- The Independent Characters podcast annual Hobby Progress Challenge is once again upon us. Last year I made quite a lot of progress on my Sororitas army by completing a unit each month. This time around I will be building the 536th Skyborne Gravediggers as a Crusade force.
- I just realized I painted this Inquisitor Greyfax model a year ago but never photographed or posted it. www.instagram.com/sculptdude
- Finally got my Trench Pilgrim warband going. The Monialis from the Sacred Costalera (previewed at Adepticon) is taking the role of my War Prophet along with two Progressors (Pilgrims) with flame throwers. A Pilgrim with a bolt action rifle, a submachine gun, and a couple of Ecclesiastic Prisoners.
- Since I missed the deadline for the HPC March entry due to prepping for Adepticon, I figured I would just carry that forward and wrap it up for April. The last bit of models I needed to round out my Blades of Khaine Kill Team. I'm hoping they get to see some action against the filthy Mon'keigh soon!
- Adorned with habits of tattered flowing robes and coarse fabrics, the Sacred Costalera are unlike any nuns the world has seen. They are drawn to wearing the Ironcrown Thorns or the Martyr’s veil, giving them miraculous sight under darkened skies to deliver their cleansing fire. Work in progress.
- Got this Wraithlord wrapped up for the Hobby Progress Challenge for February. It was a pretty good way to test out some new ideas for a Biel-Tan scheme. Onward to Dire Avengers next.
- Aeldari Wraithlord is assembled. The pose of the stock kit was a bit stiff, so I decided to do something a little more dynamic. All it took was modifying one knee. Hadn’t used greenstuff in a while. The weapons will be painted separately and attached after painting. #wh40k #aeldari #eldar #bieltan
- The Druid Gone Wilder is probably my favorite sculpt I did for Privateer Press back around 2012. This was one of their promotional minis only available during conventions. Here is a small glimpse of the sculpting process I used. #warmachine #warmahordes #druidgonewilder #steamforgedgames
- You may know where I'm headed with this. The sprues are Ratling Snipers. I still need to add Kasrkin, a Scout Sentinel, and Arvis Lighter. warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Elysian... #astramilitarum #wh40k #paintingwarhammer
- Mixlax the Devil's Notary is done and off to the mold maker. Be on the lookout for him from Trenchworx soon. #mcdm #MattColville #dndminis #dndminiatures
- My next character for the MCDM game is the Devil's Notary, Mixlax. He seem to be a crafty little character. The art has awesome detail for his costume. So far I've had a lot of fun building the various props. . . . #mcdm #MattColville #dndminis #dndminiatures
- I got an update from @trenchworx.bsky.social today on the sculpt I did of Pinna for the MCDM game. She has been cast in metal and all the details came out as hoped. . . . #mcdm #MattColville #dndminis #dndminiatures

- Aeldari Wraithlord (Dreadnought) incoming for February. Trying to decide if I want to do a bit of converting for a more dynamic pose or not. . . . #aeldari #eldar #bieltan #warhammerchallenge #warhammerchallengecompetition #warhammer #Warhammer40k
- Just finished up this audio book. It's very cool and a great insight into the fighter aces of the Imperial Navy. #blacklibrary #warhammerchallenge #warhammerchallengecompetition #warhammerchallenge2025 #aeronauticaimperialis #astramilitarum #imperialnavy #cadiastands #warhammercommunity
- Striking Scorpions for my Blades of Khaine Kill Team. The rest of the team is filled out with Banshees and Avengers. As a bonus, here are also my old metal Scorpions from 30 years ago. #eldar #aeldari #killteam #killteam40k #strikingscorpions #warhammer #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer

- Reposted by Patrick KeithAn early Christmas present! Rick Priestley joined me to talk about the #Warhammer projects that didn't make it to release. From Necromunda style Death World & Craft World skirmish games to the Old World's fate with Tamurkhan, via Dr Who and more - you won't want to miss it! #WarhammerCommunity
- I got a little progress on my first unit of Aeldari Howling Banshees. Much different than the ones I painted way back in 1993.
- I just got approval on my sculpt of Pinna, the iconic character for the @hellomcdm.bsky.social game setting. She is off to be printed and molded for metal casting by @trenchworx.bsky.social Looking forward to seeing how she turns out. #mcdm #MattColville #dndminis #dndminiatures #fantasyminiatures

- Reposted by Patrick KeithLet’s start with two of the first Azor figures - the snake priestesses. Serpent cults are everywhere in Azor, building tall towers and whispering poisoned words from incense-curtained halls. Their influence has waxed and waned in previous centuries, but in recent times it’s been growing…
