No slowing down in 2022 for the Brookhammer crew! Hot off the heals of our January Paint Off, we’re ready to get the next one started.
For our fifth round, we’re focusing on Machines of Weath. Vehicles, dreads, tanks, aircraft. If it’s a machine and it kills the enemy force, it’s fair game. Keep an eye on our Instagram account this month as we share updates and teasers leading up to the full reveal.
It’s been a bit too long since the group held a friendly Paint Off challenge so we thought we’d kick off the new year with one! What’s it going to be? Read on to find out more…
and the theme for this challenge is … Primaris Marines!
More specifically a Primaris Captain or Lieutenant and it can’t be a named character. For the month of January, a few of us got to work picking which chapter to focus on and what model to paint.
We’ll have the full mini reveal on our Instagram page this weekend, so tune in and let us know which one was your favorite! We’ll share the full reveal and the fan-favorite winner on the site next week.
In the mean time, check out our previous challenges: Paint-Off I, Paint-Off II and Paint-Off III.
We’re excited to announce that a bunch of the crew will be heading to New Jersey in December to partake in the Jersey Devil painting competition put on by the crew at Mythicos Studios. In the area? Come check it out the competition, see some of our models in person and just talk all things Warhammer!

Every once in awhile the hobby community can really get together to do something fun. One great example is the annual Ho-Ho-Hobbyvices Secret Santa event that Andrew (hobbyvices) puts on for the Warhammer community on Instagram. You may recall last year, Jason took part and received this amazing custom Lord of Contagion model he painted up. So why not enter this year? Check out Andrew’s post on Instagram for all the details!
Oh, and while you’re at it Andrew also runs an amazing Warhammer themed Discord server where you can even find a few of us chatting away about the hobby!
Once again, we’re back to kick off our third Paint Off challenge for the group. We’ve done it twice before featuring Tau Crisis Suits and Eldrad Ulthran! Read on to see what’s in store for this round…
Just last week, we passed the 3,000 follower mark on Instagram. To celebrate, we’re doing a small competition this week. Head over to our Instagram account and check it out!
One random winner will be getting a custom model (kitbashed by Max and Shane) and then can even pick one of the crew to paint it! Should be fun!
While our roots as a group really found a home on Instagram, that’s not the only place you can find us on the web. You can also follow us on Twitter and our newly created Facebook page. If you’re into using Feedly or another RSS reader, you can add our feed there.
Our friend Hobbyvices has also setup a Discord chat server where quite a few of our members hang out and chat with a growing group of other wargamers.
We’re really excited to finally add a new Shop section to the site. This will be your one-stop spot to see which models/armies we have available for purchase as well as a quick way to access all of Shane’s amazing 3D printed custom bits for your models! We even listed how you can contact us about commission work from your favorite Brookhammer painters. We’ll be doing our best to keep this updated so check back often!
The site, as you may have noticed, has been a bit quiet the last few weeks. Don’t worry, we didn’t go anywhere we’ve just been in heads down mode! Here are a few things we’ve got going on . . .
Armies on Parade is just around the corner and we’re planning to make a splash at the Warhammer shop in NYC. Jason, Max, Tim T., Leo, Joe (and maybe more) all have plans to showcase their work. Be sure to swing by and check it out this Saturday, November the 4th. We’ll be sure to keep our Instagram updated throughout the day and we’ll be sure to post here too afterwards. We know Jason has plans for a behind-the-scenes post about his board creation.
That’s not the only big event you can catch us at in November! On the weekend of the 11th, we’ll be at the Clash4Vets tournament in Parsippany, NJ. Tim T. has been working with his crew at the North Jersey Wargamers to put on this ITC tournament and megabattle and he’ll also have some awesome work up for auction. Quite a few of the crew will be in attendance participating in the tournament as well!
With the end of the year fast approaching, we’re also starting to plan our our annual Yearhammer Apocalypse bash. It’s gonna be bigger and crazier than ever!
Heading to the NOVA open this weekend? Be sure to swing by the Shapeways booth to say Hi to Shane! He’ll be there showing off his incredible custom Imperial Knight designs including the Wolf Knight and Custodes Knight!
