I've been painting Warhammer for nearly 10 YEARS now and in that time I have painted hundred of miniatures ... but which one is the best?
In this video, I'll be showcasing and ranking what I think are THE BEST Warhammer miniature I've ever painted.
I'm actually a little nervous about posting this video as it's the first time I've ever displayed what i consider to be 'my best work' in one place so please let me know what you think!!
ENJOY ROGUES!!

Embarrassing confession. your sassy nurgling is part of what inspired me to start a death gaurd army. In fact when my wife and I were in our local store discussing the various hobbying pros and cons of Death Gaurd, Thousand Sons and World eaters, the winning argument for nurgle was " Yeah , but sloppity bilepiper and sassy nurgling" Absolute respect for your skill and the positive effect you have on the community.

#2 is #1 for me. _Astonishingly_ good. Back when my mates and I were painting minis, we barely had a thousandth of your talent. We did share your passion for unusual colour schemes, however. One friend owned "Space Hulk" plus the expansions. We painted every genestealer a different two-colour combo. Sounds weird, but they looked mad - and it allowed us to kinda personalise them :-)

I mean this as a great compliment and not as a dig or negative comparison: your work reminds me of the Lisa Frank style of artwork. Very bold use of bright, saturated colors heightened by fantastical creatures and settings. It's like a slightly corrupted Lisa Frank.

The Lord of Change conversion is definitely the most striking figure (although all are quite nice). I wouldn't worry about plateauing, though. It will always happen at some point - for awhile. Your brain just needs time to absorb skills. Keep at it, and eventually, it's able to absorb more. I've hit that wall so many times. Perseverance pays off - just don't sweat it. Let it come in its own time, and it will happen when you're really ready (as opposed to when you think you are)... :)

You have done the Changer of Ways proud. Speaking of change, I think it's important to understand that the trajectory of one's life is never a binary of "improvement vs stagnation". We are always changing into exciting new forms. Don't ask "can I ever be as good as I once was?". But rather "how can I be the best ME I can be in this phase of my life?". There is no high or low points. Because "Up" and "Down" are words we created to match our very subjective and narrow view of reality.

Your painting style on these mesmerizes me the most. So saturated and painterly and feel so alive. I think i love them, because they remind me of the Discworld book cover art from Josh Kirby.
