Nice work, I just checked his site and though their models are similar I was mistaken! Sorry for calling you out lol

 

Edit:

 

Infact looking more in detail at Blinds model it is a lot better than RetributionAngels though his is pretty good also. Great job guy!

Pointing anyone interested in updated to the WIP thread :cuss

 

UPDATES!

 

p.s. Thanks to Lorenzen for the backup there. Honestly I'd never take credit for anothers work. There are even a couple of tutorials in some of my old threads on sculpting BA icons etc :)

alright.... so I have an update.

 

Sadly two big issues here.

 

1.) My abilities with cameras suck

 

2.) I dropped him midway through taking some of the pictures, snapping (and losing) part of the Iron Halo :teehee: I've begun effort in rebuilding said part through the use of greenstuff now :D The only plus side here, is my build quality was high enough that the model didn't break other than a bit I didn't 'build' per-se... always nice.

 

alright onto whats been changed....

 

I resculpted the tabard as I really wasn't happy with the look of the original (very very rough looking, also the shape wasn't rectangle, fixed with this one)

I resculpted the blood drop and wings on the waist from scratch (after painting the original) as I felt the original really really seemed to be lacking in comparison to the rest of the model.

 

Now onto pics, sadly they don't do him justice at all as most of the mid tones just about everywhere have been killed completely by my bad camera skills, still I hope it gives the general idea. I also have a free handed imperial eagle on the base but forgot to take pictures of it! :(

Still to paint:

 

The gun needs highlights on both the silver and the black, the skull with wing needs to be painted.

the wings on the belt could use another coat of white

Tycho needs to be written on shoulder scroll

skull on chain needs to be painted

cross on backpack needs to be worked up to full red, skull on cross needs to be painted

the Halo will need to be touched up now sadly :(

 

Comments and Crit are as always welcome :wacko:
