LED Miniature Makers of Social Media 2023

On By Chris B.In LEDs, Social Media

About a year ago I published an article looking at other LED miniature makers in the online community. I thought it was about time to do the same thing again and celebrate the excellent LED miniature work posted by other hobbyists on social media. Embedded below are some of my recent favourites, presented in no particular order. Why not take a few minutes to check out their work, and if you like what you see then give them a follow!

grimdark_illuminations

Alex is an absolutely LED miniature making machine. His productivity puts me to shame! Check out his awesome Horus Heresy Iron Warriors army in the post below.

zebamunda

I’ve only discovered Zebamunda’s work recently, but it’s incredibly impressive. Take a look at the clever use of LED displays in Necromunda scenery.

warhamster_king_of_leds

Warhamster is incredibly prolific and has a huge range of LED projects on his Instagram. A particular favourite of mine is the recent Gravis Apothecary and it’s different LED colour modes. Also take a look at his recent work on Stormcast for Age of Sigmar.

Jaw Drop Prop Shop

Jaw Drop Prop Shop has been doing some wonderful work with LED effects on Space Marines. Check out his channel for some great videos, including LED tutorials.

Hobbyvices

Hobbyvices has been doing some very cool display board work recently. Check out the lights and smoke(!) in the Soulblight Gravelords display below!

doc.brown_miniatures

Doc Brown remains one of my favourite LED miniature makers. The work that went into the moving and rotating cannons on this Space Marine Stalker is phenomenal. The video below is definitely work a watch!

technicalrunnerd

Technicalrunnerd continues to impress and delight with his creative use of LEDs and other electronics in his Chaos army.

bobo’s hobbies

Bobo does excellent work on artfully illuminated Space Hulk scenery and accessories. Check out the atmospheric door below and more examples on his Instagram.

jjh_maestro

A slight detour from Warhammer, but if you like illuminated Gundams then jjh_maestro is a great person to follow!

jamcstarwarslegion

Again, not Warhammer, but take a look at the excellent work that Abraham has been doing lighting up Star Wars Legion models.

bjarnidali

Bjarnidali has been doing some very clever work with scenery. Check out the colour coded door indicators in the video below.

groundeffected

Groundeffected’s work has to be seen to be believed! Check out the awesome hovering grav tank in the video below! Also, note the excellent paint job in addition to the special effects.

That’s just a small sample of the great work that you can find out there. Many apologies if I follow your LED work on Instagram or Twitter and I’ve missed you out, it wasn’t intentional! If you have any suggestions for other great LED miniature artists that I’ve not mentioned above, please let me know in the comments.

If this has inspired you and you’d like to have a go at making some LED miniatures yourself then you can find my tutorials here and supplies here. As always, thanks very much for reading, and remember you can also follow my work on social media at Instagram, Threads, Twitter/X and Mastodon. That’s all for today, see you again soon!
