We are a group of miniature figure painters, from all across Southwestern Ontario, with a huge scope of interest and experience. This group's objective is to grow the community, and bring everyone together to share their in-progress and completed work, as well as a platform for local retailers to reach out to their customer base. Look for step by steps, display posts, news announcements, show coverage, and anything else that may feel appropriate!

Last chance to sign up for the Sword & Brush 2019 painting seminars with Fernando Ruiz and Jaume Ortiz!
08/02/2019
This is the last call for painting seminars at Sword & Brush.
We are so excited to have the opportunity to bring Fernando Ruiz and Jaume Ortiz over to help you improve your painting at all skill levels, in 6 different seminars over the course of the weekend! Learn how to paint flesh, camouflage, armour, leather, and other details in ways you've never seen before, or that you thought were too far out of your comfort zone. Normally these classes run a full weekend, but this is a great chance to get in for a shorter time, and take away a key learning point!
Due to the fact that there are a huge amount of logistics involved in bringing over world class painters from Spain, we need to see registration numbers lift, or regretfully, we will have to cancel the seminars.
If you were planning on attending, now is the time to register, or you will miss out on this great experience!
