This blog hosts pictures of models painted by me (Alan O'Bryan), a four-time U.S. Golden Demon winner (2002-2003) and the 2013 West Coast Store Wars and 2016 Las Vegas Open Warmachine/Hordes Master Craftsman. I hope you enjoy these models and find inspiration here for your own work! PLEASE NOTE: While I still sometimes use this blog to post pictures for linking to on forums, my main page has moved to www.gorillawithabrush.com. See you there!

Great Job Alan! Well deserved, loved your Trolls.... It was good seeing you again over the weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dean! It was good to see you and Dragi again, too. :-)
ReplyDeleteCongrats Alan, couldn't have happened to a nicer guy! Can't wait to see your glacier king.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Danny! Hope you are doing well. :-)
ReplyDeleteWell deserved. I've read that you only paint a few hours a night. How do you produce so many? Can you come close to finishing one in a session? Thanks for sharing your awesome work!
ReplyDeleteIt's a marathon...I was working on that army for about 5 years. I don't get a ton painted every year but it does add up over time. I generally can't finish a model in one sitting unless I'm painting all day on a weekend and the model is small and doesn't have too many colors. If I had to guess I would say that a model (about the size of a Troll warlock) takes me 10-20 hours to finish depending on the number of colors, how detailed the model is, the amount of freehand work I add, etc. For example, that Grissel with blue skin I just painted was done from start to finish in 5 sessions of about 1.5 to 3 hours each.
