The Asylum has 200 inmates...

... well, minus Neil who escaped to terrorises us all with his own blog... see the last post. So, 200 followers. I'm rather surprised if I'm honest. All going rather well. Not sure I have much content for this post though I can tell you I've got another John Blanche piece to put up very soon (and it's uncharacteristically big). So, I think I shall open the floor to all 200 of you. Upon this anniversary of sorts I'd like to take the chance, once again, to ask what you'd like to see in future? So, don't be shy, there's at least 200 of you...

  1. Well i'll open the bidding with possibly some sculpting if those slave drivers at GW towers will permit it ;) Or more random musings will do fine:)

  2. Uhm, more of the same, really. I really enjoy this blog, your thoughts on painting are always interesting - seeing your corpse cart stage by stage was really insightful.

  3. More hobbist articles. Differences between various brushes, how to keep brushes in shape, using green stuff, painting/sanding it, priming it, etc...

  4. I always like reading your thoughts about the miniatures world and the hobby aspects of it. The "what if apple..." posts are some of my favorites as well as your thoughts on fellow painters and sculptors. You have an interesting perspective since you've been/are a high level GD winning painter, post-GD painter, small company owner, previously worked for GW doing different things, currently work for GW as sculptor, and are a fan of minis in general.

  5. Painting advice & tutorials. Particularly about doing miniatures in "painterly" styles (ie, not the clean realism many gamers seemto favour).

  6. is clean realistic - for me painterly is - as well as getting to grips with emotional content it has an internal dynamic that reflects the gritty content of a miniature that has a relationship with the imagined surroundings of the world it resides in .....

  7. I have been a fan of your sculpting work for a long time, and have enjoyed your posts thus far. So keep it up!
    Request wise: I don't necessarily need tutorials as the internet is full of them, but I always enjoys w.i.p's. The Corpse Cart series was awesome as everyone has mentioned. The classic "This is my work area and these are my tools" posts are always a treat from an artist you admire.

  8. Hey Steve. Since you joined us in the studio I've been stalking you on the Internet....

  9. A post about the basic ins and outs of greenstuff could be an interesting one... broadly the material rather than sculpting as such...

  10. I always like to see more painting and sculpting tips, usually the little known bits and bobs that turn out to be quite useful.
    And I like seeing showcases of other peoples work that expose us to a wider variety of styles/techniques.

    And I already love what you've given to us thus far... So... erm... Thanks :)

  11. tutorials on things you paint are always useful but pretty much more of the same. A very enjoyable blog to read.
