A little more about Victoria and her Miniatures:
Victoria has been a dynamic force in the miniature hobby, creating iconic and influential pieces that transcend traditional expectations.
In 2001, she secured the prestigious Golden Demon Slayer Sword at the Australian Golden Demon in Sydney for her remarkable diorama: “The Rescue of Sister Joan.”
This masterpiece not only won accolades but also catapulted the technique of Object Source Lighting (OSL) into the world spotlight, making Victoria a real trailblazer in the international miniature painting community.
Venturing beyond painting and converting miniatures, Victoria established her own range of models, Victoria Miniatures, in 2009. The range boasts a diverse collection of models, each telling a unique and compelling story through futuristic soldiers.
As we approach ArcFest, stay tuned for more exciting announcements regarding what we have planned including details about onsite activities and competitions, prize support, demonstrations, and displays.
