Kyrylo got into this hobby completely by accident back in 2017.  His friends invited him to play some DnD for the first time and after that first session he wanted to make custom terrain and so it began.......

Terrain making videos led him to miniature painting videos and it all started rolling from there. By now he's experienced in painting miniatures from all kinds of different wargames, board games, collectibles and display miniatures.  His biggest passion is painting high quality display pieces and making miniature dioramas.
