Customer briefing

Guardians of Gold and Blood

The client, familiar with our style, asked us for a premium treatment that combined fidelity to the background with the technical excellence of the studio.
His briefing was clear: “I want the miniatures to look exactly as they should in Baal, without any additions or reinterpretations.” Impeccable gilding, ivory wings, and glowing gems. The Warhammer bases, meanwhile, had to convey a ceremonial setting.
He also requested that all the work be done by a single painter to ensure absolute uniformity between miniatures, something we rigorously respected throughout the process.

General picture of the project Premium

Honor Among Wings

This project was developed in a linear and methodical manner. From the outset, we agreed that a single painter would be responsible for everything, thus ensuring consistency in tone, light, and texture.
We began by assembling and integrating the bits onto the bases. Next, we applied a gold base modulated with ochre glazes and violet shadows to create depth. The wings and weapons were worked on in parallel, balancing the overall temperature.
The process was clean, without major complications, but with the constant demand for premium quality. The final review included micro-adjustments to the brightness of the gems, cold lights on the edges, and photographic consistency checks before final QC.
