Paul Dainton

Paul Dainton has been drawing comic characters since he was a child. After studying art at university, where he explored various styles and broadened his approach to illustration, he worked for several years as a freelancer before joining Games Workshop, the British miniatures game manufacturer. There, he gained over twenty years’ experience, contributing in particular to the Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar universes, before taking the helm of the Warhammer 40,000 art team for five years. Internationally recognized for his work in concept art and character design, he more recently joined CMON as a senior artist, where he brings his creative vision to the publisher’s board games. His style, blending documentary precision with a sense of grandeur, has left its mark on generations of players and collectors through the numerous covers, artbooks and game illustrations he has created throughout his career.
