About Me

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
I'm a forty year old Artist and semi-professional sculptor, and I've turned my hobby into a fun and interesting career. I was born in Britain but currently live in Ottawa, Canada. I've been sculpting commercial models for 6 years, I can work in 3-ups or regular scale, and I've done fantasy and sci-fi sculpts, boardgame components, model railway models, 1:72 scale minis, and wedding cake toppers. I'm available for custom miniature sculpting, master sculpts for casting, extensive conversion work, and even paint jobs. One of my pieces (IMPACT!Miniatures Deadwood Treeman)was named one of the top ten gaming products of 2007 by Tabletop Gaming News. I can be contacted at Agarrett23@sympatico.ca

Also added a gallery today for some of my other art, mostly sci-fi and fantasy stuff from my sketchbooks. If anyone's looking for paintings\graphic art\tattoo designs, I do a bunch of other art besides just the sculpting\miniature work.


New gallery up for my latest custom piece :) She's a battle-android for Warhammer 40k called "Engine of Vengeance", and is based off art by the client, and some Manga art he sent me.

Massive updates for my 40k Orks this week ! I started a complete do-over of this army last year, but haven't gotten around to painting all the new stuff or the rebuilt stuff. Much more to come in the next few weeks for this gallery :)

More new galleries up - Skaven and Eagle Knights Space Marines :)

Wednesday, November 25, 2009


Haven't been properly updating this thing again. Lots of new stuff up in a bunch of the galleries though. Chaos marines, Terminators, and a couple of tanks too.

Tuesday, November 3, 2009


Woah, it's been a while since I updated this thing ! Lots going on, I've been making contacts with small gaming companies and churning out the models both for clients and for myself :) Got copyright done on a game I wrote, and I've given a copy to a new group called "Platinum Lion" miniatures - also did some sculpts for them. Anyway, lots of new stuff up in a bunch of galleries.

Ogres!


When GW put out an army of Ogres, I freaked out - a whole ARMY OF MONSTERS ?!
So I'm finally getting around to posting pics of some of mine - So far it's just the Tyrant and Bruisers, but I'll have the whole lot online eventually :)

More Redcoats!


More Voltigar Prime Redcoats up in the gallery - I'm super happy with these guys - the bases look great. I've got a lot of ideas for this army... :)

Even MORE Imperial Guard !!


New Gallery up for the Cadwallan Orkhunters. All converted Catachans with camo ponchos - they're a great looking army. Not many pics yet, but many to come.

More Imperial Guard !!


Here's a look at something I just started. New IG force based around Empire and Cadian bits. I love the baseplates on these guys. High Marshall Tolriggen here is the general, but he doesn't have a command squad yet. These are the only ones I've made so far but this is going to be an AMAZING looking army !

The Fury of Fenris !


In anticipation of the new SpaceWolves codex, I've been touching up my old Spacewolves and finishing some unpainted conversions. The Gallery is up, there's a bunch of stuff and more soon to come !

This new gallery shows off one of my human teams for Bloodbowl - The Altdorf Thunder. This team is based around 2 sets of the NAF human players I sculpted through IMPACT! miniatures. Didn't like the cartoony look of the designs they gave me at first but they grew on me as I worked on them. Ended up liking them a lot more - enough to base a team around them and sculpt up a few pieces to match. The team also features another NAF miniature - the Ogress I sculpted for them in march. Enjoy !

New Custom Miniature Gallery


This Elf Ranger-Mage is a gaming figure for Dave Leja in California. He's a repeat customer and a great guy to work with. Really happy with this fig :)

Custom Giant Squig


This monstrosity is for a guy named Josh who wants a Squig he can play as a Giant in his Night Goblin army for Warhammer Fantasy Battle. I sent Forgeworld\GW an email inquiring if they were looking for freelancers - hopefully they see this !

Imperial Guard Army Gallery is up!


This ENORMOUS new gallery in the 40k section shows off my entire "Ausmania Secundus Rangers" Imperial Guard army for Warhammer 40k. Based on Catachan models and a few scratch-built pieces, every model in this army has been converted and or puttied onto. The centrepiece is the Iron Duke, the excellent new Leman Russ Executioner kit from GW - the textured floor inside inspired some fantastic interior modelling. I hope people enjoy looking at these models even half as much as I enjoyed making them, cause this project was SO MUCH FUN!!!

Another Custom Character Model


This Elf Wizard is a piece for a friend of mine's cousin. He's 12 and
plays D+D so my buddy wanted to get him a fancy mini for his character.

Scratch Built 40k "Knight Warden" Titan !!!


Warhammer players over a certain age may remember the "Knight Titans" - They were 28mm models for Epic scale - like smaller versions of Reaver Titans. This one, the "Invigilus" was built on Mars for Knight Princeps Vorl Thunyerus - by which I mean it was built in 2 days from Sentinel bits, Ironclad Dreadnought bits, and pieces of the lascannon platforms from a pair of bastions.

The Princeps in the picture is Lord Princeps Agmundr Searwoll, the leader of my (in progress) Adeptus Titanicus army. More pics to come.

New Gallery Up


New gallery added to the "custom work" section - some fantasy gaming models for the same group in Anaheim that commissioned the Starwars figures. I'm really happy with the Monk\Fire wizard - he turned out pretty spectacular.

It'z Da Bigg Krusha !!


This great Orky Juggernaut is constructed from a Shadowsword \ Stormlord kit, an Ork battlewagon, and bitz from the Stompa Gargant. This is what happens when I've got 200$ to throw into a five-week project. Absolutely nuts, this thing. Most of the guns and turrets had to be fixed in place for structural integrity, but some parts still swivel or pivot. The ramming plow on the front opens up to reveal the boarding point, and the Deffkopta pad on the back lifts off. This thing was so much fun to build :) There's 6 pics from various angles in the ORKZ 40k gallery. WAAAAGH !!!

Warhammer Imperial Guard Gallery


This new gallery will showcase one of my favorite armies for Warhammer 40k - The 5th Karelian trenchers. The Trenchers are made up mostly of old IG models with bits from the Cadian plastic set, Brettonian peasants, and Empire gun carriages. Every model in this army has been converted to some degree, with a few really awesome scratch-built pieces. Enjoy !

Custom StarWars Roleplay figures


So this group of Gamers in California has requested several figs, mainly custom Star Wars themed minis for their roleplaying game. These look great - I think they're better than the Star Wars pre-painted minis :) There's a gallery up with pics.

More Custom stuff in Gallery


Some more stuff up today. A gaming miniature for Josh Nordin of Illionois, and some Custom Space Marines still in progress. The conversions on these are great - they're based on three of the plastic Space Marine Command Squad miniatures, with extensive putty work - More pics up once they're painted.

Custom figures keep me busy...


More stuff up in the galleries for custom miniature sculpting. Giant Liche model with a face made of worms for Adrian Sawyer of North Carolina, Three Fantasy Gaming models for a group of players in Finland - Marko, Marko, and Hannu - great guys to work with :) And a pair of Norse Shapeshifters for a BloodBowl tournament run by Thunderball comics. Busy busy busy...

New Gallery up for my 40k orkz. Lots more to come. The warboss is 80% pro-create, hand sculpted. Been too busy lately to work on the blog, but will post more regularly

New Gallery Up


New Gallery up. My "Albion Celts" army for Fantasy Battle. Took forever to assemble a whole army with different unique troops. Had to build a lot of stuff from scratch. These chariots are from a British company called "Warlord Games" that make awesome historical stuff, mostly Ancient Britons and Romans. Great models. More to come in this gallery shortly.

Thursday, February 26, 2009


More Pictures of Duorvhes up this week. Some Khador stuff too. I'm building a Custom Jester model for a client too, so lots of stuff going on in the galleries.

Wednesday, February 11, 2009

More pics up


Just added more pictures of my "Duorvhes" - A squad of bikers with a psyker in a sidecar. These are vintage "Squat" minis from Games Workshop, out of production for over ten years, but I'm lucky enough to have enough to field a complete army. The "Mjolnir" tank in the same gallery is a vintage Landraider with extensive conversion work. Much more to come, including Exo-armor, Veterans, Jump-Jet infantry, and characters.
