Here is my submission to Olden Demon 2026. I was hoping to spend more time on it but life got in the way and I had to rush to get it finished last minute.

I would especially like to improve the halberd head, I think the flat side is the worst part. The feather needs some work too. I think the armor is pretty good though I might need to lighten up the green reflections on it quite a bit as they are too subtle.

I am very happy with what I was able to do with the face. I don't usually paint humans and this sculpt is quite soft. I was going to add the red stripes on back of the pant leg, but ran out of time. The light side of the stones should be much higher in value, but I painted the base in about 5 minutes.

A big surprise to me is that I don't hate the green base rim. I still might paint it black eventually as I will want this guy to fit my old world collection.

Almost there for Olden Demon. Still have to base it and do some cleanup. I'm not too happy about the halberd head so I might change that if I can get a better idea.

Here's a clip from my "Road to Olden Demon" video where I go through my options for an Empire model. The full video is on my channel.

Hey friends! I made a video about preparing for Olden Demon, picking an oldhammer model, figuring out a color scheme and painting a test model. At the end, there's a brief tutorial about doing digital mockups for different color schemes.

Here's a test model for the Empire. I'm hoping to paint an Empire model for the Olden Demon competition (and possibly a small warband) and wanted to get my scheme right. This model, of course, wouldn't qualify as it was released in 2000, but I have a couple of older ones prepared. The second image shows how I like to develop my color mixes from dark to light on paper rather than directly on the model. As you can see, this one actually started out green and blue.
