About Us

Hello! My name is Chris. Or as most online call me, Grumpy. I am the owner and operator of Grumpy Crane Studio. This whole thing came from the idea that a man should be able to create the things he loves while spending more time with the people he loves. I have been working full time since I was 14 years old and always had aspirations to be my own boss. Many attempts were made and many failures were had. Through all this I eventually found table top miniatures and decided this was it. This is how I am going provide for my family while maintaining a better work-life balance. What started as painting miniatures at my kitchen table has turned into a full blown art studio where I work on pieces of all shapes and sizes. Every purchase made supports this dream and lets me spend a bit more time with my family. Thank you so much for your time and have a wonderful day!
