Sorcerer of Slaanesh


tortoise

Recommended Posts

Some of you may remember this conversion I posted a while back. I've finally started the painting process and I thought I'd share it, maybe get some feedback.

 

I'm probably going to redo the freehand on the chest and replace it with something a bit simpler.

did i miss a new release? where is that model from???

 

it looks like its made of pure win so far. well done <_<

 

its a (heavily) converted Sicarius model. you can clearly tell from the pose who it is. the Sicarius model is extremely hard to convert as he's very concave and has a million U symbols all over him. that said, i very much respect people that take the time and effort to convert him.

Thanks guys.

 

The problem I have with the freehand is that it destroys the readability of that area of the model. I'm sure I can do something simpler that will still look good. I also will probably do similar stuff on the inside of the cloak and i don't want them to clash.

I'm not so sure I think that the freehand screams SLAANESH and I still think it will look good even if you do more of the similar freehand on the inside of the cloak. Either way it's your choice but I think it will look good as anything you seem to do looks awesome so yeah keep up the good work and I can't wait to see the finished product
I like the freehand. Can you do a tutorial of how you do each paint, and how you do the gradients/blending?

 

Tutorials are difficult at the moment since my photography set up is really only suitable for taking photos in artificial light but can't be blacked out, so I have to wait till it gets dark which at this time of year is too late really to do any actual painting most days. But I'll do one eventually, it might just take a while.

 

 

Thanks everyone for all the kind words by the way.

 

Further progress has been made.

Looks around nervously...

 

I loved this conversion when you first posted it, and I love it even more now you're painting it, the whole thing just oozes Slaanesh to me ;). Incidentally, what hands/weapons are you giving him/her/it (c'mon it's Slaanesh, you never know)?

 

Now I must return to pretending to be a staunch loyalist (instead of the occasional heretic that I am) before I am discovered by the Inquistion.

Quick! Someone pass me a bib, i'm drooling! That is an amazing model, the colour scheme is perfect - see the rim on his left shouldpad, is that metallic shaded with inks, or is it NMM?

Thanks, his shoulder pad is just normal metal shaded with inks- nothing fancy.
