This is a round-up of miniature work completed in 2025. Looking back, it has been a fruitful year with time well spent with family and friends. Here's looking forward to what 2026 will usher in.

US Marine FAST (Fleet Anti-terrorism Security Team), Operation Just Cause, Panama, 1989

After more than a year, I finally made the push to finish this shelf queen from Conflict Miniatures. Painted with AK Interactive 3Gen and Quick Gen acrylics. 





I used the 3D-printed vegetation from H-Diorama Studio for greater realism.




The wooden base is crafted by Franco Serra of Il Basetta.


Cheers,

Test fitting the figure onto a simple groundwork made up of parts taken from the scrap box (a la Verlinden).

SS Freiwilligen Legion Niederlande, Narva, 1944

I am currently working on the painting sample (Alpine Miniatures 35236) for my upcoming painting workshop in Hong Kong hosted by 模樂堂 (Happy Hobby). I will be introducing some game-changing painting techniques to help mainly AFV and diorama modelers to speed up and level up on their figure painting skills using AK-Interactive Gen 3, Quick Gen paints and the painting mediums. I am told that there are only a few slots left, so act fast to confirm your place in the class. FYI, the class will be conducted in Mandarin (普通话) and Chinglish.



Cheers,

Calvin
