Paul Hicks is a traditional tabletop figure sculptor who has been creating figurines for over 20 years. He began his career as a hobby sculptor, but his work quickly gained the attention of the wargaming community. He has since sculpted figures for a variety of companies including, but not exclusively, Empress Miniatures, Brigade Games, Footsore Miniatures & Games and Steel Fist Miniatures. He was also a co-founder of Bolt Action Miniatures.

Paul's sculpting process begins with research. He studies historical documents and photographs to ensure his figures are as accurate as possible. Once he has a good understanding of the subject matter, he begins.

Paul's work is known for its high level of detail and realism. He takes great care to capture the individual features of each figure, from the smallest weapon to the most intricate piece of armour. He has a keen eye for scale and proportion, which is essential for creating realistic and playable figures.

A passionate advocate for traditional sculpting, Paul believes there is something special about the tactile experience of working with the putty and his tools. He is committed to creating the highest quality traditional figures possible. He is a valuable asset to the wargaming community, and his work is highly sought by players and collectors alike.

Paul also creates custom figures for collectors and charity.
