Welcome to 2026 & Previews

I’d like to say a couple of things :)

1) I hope everyone is doing well and that you had some relaxing days over Christmas. For me, it was extremely important to take a week off and restart my brain. There were a lot of topics in my head, and I feel that now I’m much more capable of focusing again.

2) Attached, I’ve included some previews of projects I finished before Christmas: the Tank and the Dreadnought—as a treat for you peeps here on Patreon :)

3) I’ve also added some WIPs of projects I’m working on in my spare time—probably the Goblins as a competition piece, and the Forest as an alternative-history storytelling piece. I’m also planning to do a massive Tyranids project this year.

In general, I’d like to push the topic of Peacehammer (wholesome, non-combat miniatures) and wanted to ask if you, as a community, would like to do this as a collective thing—maybe as a challenge with sticks? Over the whole year or within a given timeframe? I’m just thinking out loud.

I’m already preparing the next tutorials, which will cover:

• Thunderhawk metallics & lighting

• The pink and teal OSL from the Tank and the Dreadnought

• Possibly composition and building tips for the Goblins

In addition, for 2026 I’m planning some new off-topic content, such as design, social media, typography, and observation—with a focus on exercises to train your eye, especially for miniatures.

Lukas (aka Chewie) 🙂
