Guy interviewed by Pleasant Kenobi

Hi everyone! Guy here. Last week I had the pleasure of chatting to Pleasant Kenobi for his War Room podcast.

We chatted about hobbying, the origins of the channel, but also some darker stuff that I don't think I've really ever spoken about publicly before.

Also there is occassional swearing (sorry mum)

I hope you enjoy it, and ...

Behind the scenes: The Colour Forge promo photo

Hi team! As you may have seen hinted at online, team MWM are partnering up with The Colour Forge for an exciting collaboration!

They asked us for a recent promo photo, and we wanted to give them something cool!

Rather than trying to faff around with a timer or remote shutter, we just let the camera roll and chose a good screen grab f...

What would this blue be perfect for?

Hi everyone! I've got a fun little secret collab in the works. You may have already guessed if you've seen recent social media posts by a certain paint company, but all will be revealed soon!

I'd love to do a little showcase video for the MYSTERY PRODUCT in question, showing a few different options of what you can do with it.

What s...

Hi team!

I've got a really cool video I'm about to put out, where I show you how to scratch build awesome miniatures for the Dark Mechanicum from spare bits and household junk. In the video I also talk about where to find cool 3rd party models and STLs to fit the army (thanks so much to all those that recommended things in the previous pos...

Future merch ideas! Let us know!

Hi team! Pretty self-explanatory here, but what sort of merch would you like to see us put out in the future?

Dark Mechanicum! I need your help!

Hi everyone! I've got a fun video that I'm working on right now about the Dark Mechanicum, and how to make your own infantry from bits and DIY materials. I know, I know, I can hear you already... "Classic MWM, nice one"

I'm also going to have a section of the video showcasing some of the awesome resin/third party model makers out there, pl...

BTS: sculpting the Titanic Unclean One

Hello you amazing bunch! Just thought I'd share some behind the scenes snaps of how the Titanic Unclean One is getting on... After Hatty's fantastic test pieces, we're putting the home made tools to good work on the giant, flopping tongue. I've also been a very big brave boy and used the 3d printer unsupervised, and got amazing results on some b...

Patreon earlybird video! A PODCAST!

Hello lovelies! As you may have seen, Alex from 52 Miniatures came to visit the UK to attend Salute, and while he was here, I gave him the ol' MavericksPaint treatment and hosted him at my place.

Both of us often get requests for PODCASTS, people seem to like our voices and think long form discussions would be a chill way to spend a couple...

Testing the Titanic GUO's skin!

Hello everyone! Guy here. I've been hard at work the last week repainting my gross Nurgle butthole tank to celebrate the 1,000,000th view on that video (and to get it ready for a painting competition!) so Hatty took the lead with this week's video.

She crafted some utterly disgusting skin and guts tests for the Titanic Unclean One, so we k...

Choose my specs!

Hi team! Bit of a fun one today. My glasses are getting a bit loose and wonky (toddlers jumping on your face tends to do that) so I'm looking for new ones!

Got a home trial at the moment. How do we feel about these? Any favourites? None of the above?

Hatty says they all make me look like a cross between Dwight Schrute and Jeffrey Dah...

What t-shirt size do you wear?

Hello you gorgeous bunch! We're in the process of getting some cool merch sorted out, and were just wondering what sort of sizes we're looking at for placing orders.

Can you let us know what t-shirt size you usually wear? You can pick more than one!

Lots of love
Guy

ANOTHER Titanic Unclean One POLL!

This time, we're choosing what style to make the handle of the BIG OL' BELL!

Either we use the original handle the bell came with, and Nurgle it up a bit...

We could create a more "swingin' bell" themed weapon with a big chain...

OR we could match the vibe of the sword and do a rotting tree vibe.

Please see the attached p...

Testing out the cheapest paint set on on Amazon. Will it Warhammer?!

Hi folks! Guy here! I always see these absolutely ridiculously cheap paint sets on Amazon with loads of colours and cool brushes and think "hmmm, why don't people just use this stuff to paint minis?"

Well, today that curiosity finally got the best of me. I bought the cheapest set on Amazon, which has over 7,000 reviews and a 4.6 rating, to...

I hope you enjoy it!

PREVIEW: Skaven intro voice over

Hi everyone! As you may well know, I do like doing the odd bit of fun voice stuff for video intros... and as I'm going to be covering Skaven this week, I thought I'd go all-out and have a bit of fun with the lore/scene-setting intro voice over.

I hope you like it!

NEW VIDEO: 4-way painting challenge

Hi everyone! Hope your week was awesome, and are looking forward to a comfy weekend!

We just released a super fun 4-way painting challenge with myself, Hatty, Ant, and Steve, to see if we could guess who painted what!

We were given the same amount of time, and used exactly the same mini. Can you spot who painted what? Do you know the...
