Welcome to Aärdnor Minis!
I create handcrafted, hand-painted small-scale environments, terrain, dioramas, props, replicas, displays, and custom projects.
I’m a Calgary, Alberta artist and lifelong maker who has been playing D&D for over forty years. What began as a way to create custom terrain for my own games grew into a passion for building detailed miniature worlds and bringing ideas to life.
Today, that passion has grown into a small business working with clients to create unique pieces for gaming, collections, displays, businesses, and personal projects.
Have an idea you'd like to bring to life? I'd love to hear about it.
