Love John Blanche and really love that you're sharing his stuff via Tumblr (and crediting him, no less! :D) - My only gripe is that there's never enough Blanche out there... THAT being said, would you be interested in maybe exploring artists SIMILAR to Blanche. I noticed you uploaded someone who had done some model conversions to mirror a Blanche artwork... Perhaps a regular submission theme might exist? Either way, thanks for brightening (or should we say "darkening" :P) my Dash with radness!
Thanks for the kind words, mcb. At the moment, I have a very limited amount of time to spend on GP, so exploring other artists is unfortunately not something I can afford to do. Of all the books and old White Dwarfs I’ve bought for the Blanche pics, I’ve yet to scan every last one, so any time I have for GP is going to be spent doing that.
If you’re keen for 28mm Blanchian goodness, there’s always The Ammobunker’s INQ28 forums to peruse. Some very good work being done there indeed.
Have you seen eldritchepistles blogspot blog? Pretty much overkill with JB's minis - Kari / SpikyRatPack
Indeed it is! Looks like it’s from the guy behind the Citadel Collector. Thanks Kari!
Hi ! Just to tell you I love your blog. I've been a John Blanche fan for many years and it's been a great surprise to find your tumblr. Keep up your great work!
Thanks kakhtus! ;-)

Hi guys! I’m selling some of my John Blanche stuff and they need a good home.

Includes the rare artbook available only through the old Skullz campaign, (circa 2001-2?)! Rare stuff indeed.

GP’s friend IzeColt of the Spiky Rat Pack reports on one of Blanche’s latest miniature works: a Champion of Tzeentch. Click through for the full post, including more pics and painting tips reminiscent of ancient Blanchitsu texts. Rub and buff gold, anyone?
