Welcome to BJCMiniStudio! Who are we? Well...we are a highly motivated and talented painter/gamer (BJ Collazo) who has been involved with the "art" of table top gaming for well over 15 years. When I say the "art" I mean the beauty that is table top war gaming as a whole, but mostly in the beauty of painted armies decorating a table filled with beautifully and creatively painted terrain. That is the "art" of table top war gaming.
Anyone can sit down and work out the ultimate uber-cheese-army lists with time, patience, ALL of the Codexes, but is that really fun? With a little time and patience, most gamers can develop a knack of modeling some cool looking models just to slap/dip/or not paint them.
I like gaming, I love modeling and painting. However, I like to paint and build what I want to play, whether I win or loose. I just want my army to look cool. ;-) So, BJCMiniStudio is first and foremost a gamer's studio. I DO play the games I paint miniatures for. I DO sit down and go through what codexes I have (for the armies I play) and build out lists I think would be fun to paint up that will yield COOL LOOKING MODELS.
So what does that mean for you the client? If you can think up the models, I can paint them to the standard you ask for. Even if that means you want an entire NMM army painted...So long as you understand the costs AND time involved in a project like that. I can do it.
This site is intended to showcase examples of my personal work for the armies I play (Warhammer 40k, Warmachine), along with tutorials, guides, recommendations, and thoughts on various topics of table top wargaming. It's a Blog, and it's a painting site. I decided not to run two sites anymore, and the Blog was getting more traffic and attention anyway.
I personally play both a DIY Space Marine Army, and am working on a "shooty/fast attack" Ork army for some conversion/modeling happyfunness. At the same time I've been working with my 11 year old daughter and 6 year old son on teaching them the ins and outs of 40K with her Sisters of Battle and his shooty Space Marines.
