Brushstrokes in the Sand: The Art Behind the Kroots

We had the pleasure of welcoming a passionate Kill Team commander. How did we meet? It was through the vibrant fabric of social media that our client, immersed in the Warhammer universe, discovered Art-W Studio’s unique creations.
This strategist contacted us with a clear vision: three alien bands, each with their own unique identity. The request was clear: a band of Harlequins, dazzling in garishly colored diamonds; a band of the Genestealer Cult, swathed in orange skins and blue-gray robes; and a band of Kroot Warriors, with their greenish skins and leather robes.
The request carried with it a desire for military cohesion and unity in each band, a canvas for storytelling on the battlefield. Our client, meticulous in their details, also expressed the need to customize the Harlequins with magnetized weapon options, taking versatility to the max.

When Art Turns into Strategy

Every brushstroke has brought the three alien bands to life for Kill Team. From the first encounter with the miniatures to the final deployment, our process has been a symphony of creativity and precision.
The daily photos sent to our strategist have been a window into our workshop, revealing the meticulous process. Adam, our skilled artist, immersed himself in the creation of the Kroot Warriors. Each miniature was erected on cork stumps, allowing optimal access for applying shadows and airbrushed details. The greenish skin, the worn clothing and the touches of fire red on the amulets, all carefully executed.
The bases, true masterpieces in themselves, evoke the serenity of a beach dotted with waves. Adam modeled each wave in the sand, adding layers of turquoise-blue dyed resin to capture the essence of the sea. The result: a visual fusion of alien nature and stunning realism.
The daily images not only documented progress, but also innovation. taking customization to new heights.
