Every great project begins with a single decision: choosing the right idea.

For GWCC 2026, I wanted to create something that truly excited me—something original that would challenge me as a painter and allow me to showcase a wide range of techniques throughout the process.

As a huge Star Wars fan and an avid Shatterpoint player, my choice was an easy one.

Over the next few months, I'll be building and painting a Mandalorian battle diorama.

This is just the beginning, and I'll be sharing every stage of the journey with you—from the first ideas and composition to the final painted piece.

I hope you'll enjoy following the project as much as I'm going to enjoy creating it.

This is the Way.
