Hello everyone! With the emphasis on monsters within the new edition of Age of Sigmar, my thoughts have been filled with ideas regarding what gargantuan beasties could be added to the pre-existing factions within the setting to compliment this new focus. Continuing the Greenskins theme, I decided to start with the Gloomspite Gitz, having been recently inspired by the illusions to giant, subterranean insects found in their battletome. I must admit, coming up with this giant, burrowing monstrosity as I was able to draw on all manner of weird and creepy invertebrates in order to make a creature that felt both unique and in keeping with the broader Gloomspite aesthetic. In all honesty, I think the presence of the arachnarok spider in the same battletome might render a creature like this redundant but it was nevertheless an interesting and stimulating exercise. #warhammer #ageofsigmar #aos #grandalliancedestruction #gloomspitegitz #moonclan #grotz #fantasy #fantasycreature #creaturedesign #fantasywarrior #goblin #goblins https://www.instagram.com/p/CU-0H_QIY-D/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hello everyone! With the new Orruk Warclans release, I've recently been thinking a lot about Greenskins and what new goodies could be released to bolster those orruk subsections that now look a bit disheveled compared to the wonderfully vibrant Cruelboyz range. Ironjaws in particular feel like they require some more units that might help to bring some more variety to the subfaction. Looking at some of the old Orcs and Goblin models from 8th edition, I was particularly inspired by the old black orc warboss/ bigboss miniature, which led me to consider the concept of a 'defensive' Ironjaw unit. What if, for instance, some 'Ardboyz took their love of discipline to a logical extreme, resulting in a veteran Orruk infantry that fought in tight phalanxes with a surprising level of coordination? I ended up looking at a range of historical infantry from which to take inspiration- roman legionaries, greek hoplites and zulu warriors all helped to inform this idea of well-armed, well-armoured orruks with big shields, whose regiments served as formidable bulwarks on the battlefield. In the end, I wanted them to be armed with something that felt a little different compared to the standard weaponry on the Ironjaws, so I came up with a short, but brutal-looking, thrusting spear, inspired by the zulu Iklwa, which I have christened the 'Gitstikka'. To accompany this, I decided to give these warriors javelins as an homage to the pilum/ assegai and to allow these orruks to soften up any would-be attackers with their trusty 'Lobbin' Stikks'. It was vary fun to come up with these ideas and I am very interested to hear if anyone has any other thought on new, potential orruk units. #warhammer #ageofsigmar #aos #ironjawz #orruks #grandalliancedestruction #fantasy #fantasywarrior #orc #characterdesign #fantasyweapons https://www.instagram.com/p/CUcIkeNMc5S/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hello everyone. With the new Kruleboy reveals, I thought it rather pertinent to post one of my most recent designs for the faction. I must admit, I was working on this in the days leading up to the reveal of the new Gobsprakk/ Killboss on Gut-rippa Vulcha and was quite shocked with the similarities in concept- the last thing I would want to be accused of is plagiarism! Nevertheless, I hope the similarities in concept are a sign that my design fits with the pre-existing themes and aesthetics of the faction. There's been quite a discussion recently about the lack of cavalry for the Kruleboyz and I've been experimenting with several different ideas for a while now. Seeing as these malicious Orruks inhabit the swamps, bogs and mires of the Mortal Realms, I became intrigued with the concept of a stilt-legged creature that could lope across waterlogged ground easily- a boon for a faction of slavers that might want to pursue fleeing enemies through their marshy homes. I ended up drawing on a mixture of bird species for inspiration, especially marabou storks, herons, hornbills and cassowaries, although I think there's also a dash of terror bird in there too! #fantasy #ageofsigmar #warhammer #aos #kruleboyz #orruks #fantasycreature #fantasywarrior #grandalliancedestruction #creaturedesign #characterdesign https://www.instagram.com/p/CRqjrvpFiyk/?utm_medium=tumblr
