About

Null Horizon Studio opened its doors in 2006 with the goal of offering painted miniatures by commission of the highest possible quality. Since that time, my commissioned figures have gone on to win painting awards, appear in print and web publications, and serve as the ‘official paints’ of one of my favorite miniatures lines.

In 2009 I remain committed to painting beautiful figures by commission and sharing them here. I have quite a lot of pictures of finished commissions waiting to be shown. But this is also the year I plan to expand Null Horizon’s scope. In addition to my professional work I plan to share my personal projects along with tutorials and other content served fresh and (I hope) often. And if things go well who knows, I may share sculpting and/or game design projects as well.

In July, 2009 I relaunched the site with a new gallery solution. Most of my pictures have made the transition, but a few remain to be sorted out. In the meantime you can still find most of professional work at my gallery at coolminironot.com, where I’m ranked coolminiornot rank.

I (plan to) share many of the projects here on other forums, such as Frothers Unite! UK, the Privateer Press forums, and Warseer. Null Horizon serves as a home base for these projects and an archive of what I’ve shown if anyone is interested in catching up or exploring other things I’ve done.

I’m a member of the Santa Rosa, CA based games club Op-For. Our collective blog is at http://oppositionforce.blogspot.com/
