What's better than being able to chat to one "celebrity" painter at a wargames trade show?
Well... you could always have TWO - and that's exactly what we will have for visitors at the #Britcon trade show in Nottingham, as on the 10th August we will be playing host to pro painters from two of the biggest names in the business - Warlord Games and Gripping Beast!
Well... you could always have TWO - and that's exactly what we will have for visitors at the #Britcon trade show in Nottingham, as on the 10th August we will be playing host to pro painters from two of the biggest names in the business - Warlord Games and Gripping Beast!
Gripping Beast will be bringing along Pirate Rich, host of the "Pirate Rich Paints.." weekly live stream on YouTube (see his review of Amy Painter Fanatic paints above) in which he paints Gripping Beast figures and tries out the latest paints on the market .
Rich specialises in ‘painting for playing’ level, not Golden Demon (although he can) and this is really popular with GB's customers. Rich has also painted many armies for Gripping Beast, most of which Lord S (GB's illustrious and highly loved leader) has managed to loose with.
As anyone who's seen his YouTube channel will testify, Rich is full of practical tips and techniques to help everyone improve their gaming standards.
Warlord Games will also be bringing Darek, one of their Nottingham-based pro studio team along to the show on Saturday 10th.
Darek has been described as a "hobby hero" by people who he's given advice and tips to at Warlord Games open days in the past, and renown for being down to earth while also having a absolute wealth of knowledge and skills in painting and modelmaking. He will be working on the Warlord Games stand all day and available to answer questions and pass along some of the tips and techniques he's picked up when painting many of the figures and vehicles you'll no doubt have seen on Warlords prolific output of new ranges and box sets.
