Dorgmal Snow – Artist of the Month

The Black Ops Toys Artists Corner focuses on people in the 1/6 hobby who make amazing art out of 1/6 scale action figures. Often you’ll hear that toys are to be left brand new in the box to be worth anything at all. But we believe that taking these 1/6 scale action figures out of the box and painting, weathering, gluing, sanding, cutting, stitching, and photographing them makes them more valuable to us (THE ARTISTS). The figures are more than just pieces in a box. Kitbashing artists make the figures come alive. These are the artists we focus on.

Mark, known online as Dorgmal Snow, started out his career in illustration and graphic design, and eventually, he got into 1/6 scale collecting. BUT he got tired of waiting for new action figures. So he started designing his own. He is based out of the UK and does all the design work himself. He paints, weathers, packages, builds, promotes, photographs, and runs his online website and informational website. He is a one-man show. 

He currently produces two concept lines; 13 Project, a sci-fi post-apocalyptic story, set in a harsh future world, and the Blind Prophet Saga, set in an ancient fantasy world of flying yunks, god Emperors, magic, and deceit

He loves to hear from folks, so if you have any questions, please contact him through his website or on his social media. You can find him on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.
