Waka Waka Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Very cool! A good paint job on an interesting conversion. How'd you do the face on his shin? If thats green stuff, then certainly my hat is off to you sir.

AnDyzZzoRe Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Wow that looks great! love the motion in the mini you got by using that terrific hair on that face. @ Waka Waka, i think its the shaved down face of a sanguinary guard mask, but i could be wrong Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233211-my-space-wizard/#findComment-2806723 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urb Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Neat and tidy. Using the marauder head makes him look a bit space wolf. The text on the top book is a bit straight amd a tad thick but well executed. Very nice model.

Mortarion Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I like it. Good conversion and painting. However, there is one (minor) detail that buggers me. The wind and motion in the model is not consistant. The hair and beard is blowing to the left, the large purity seal on his shoulder is hanging straight down and the purity seal on the book is blowing to the right. But as I said, it's a minor detail on an otherwise well painted model.

Zincite Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Nice, the face on his shin is rather cool. Would you mind sharing your recipe for gold? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233211-my-space-wizard/#findComment-2807053 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunThirster Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 Thanks for comments everyone. @WakaWaka - The face on the shin is indeed a Sanguinary guard helmet face, shaved and then smoothed on with greenstuff. @Zincite - My recipe for Gold is a base of Shining gold, washed with Brown Ink, drybrushed with a Shining gold/Mithril Silver mix and then final highlights with Mithril Silver. @Mortarion - Your right about the different positions for parchments, beard etc from the wind.. i convinced myself it would look ok as hes casting a power so there would be winds/energies blowing all over the place:P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233211-my-space-wizard/#findComment-2807070 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Man, this fella looks cool, man. Awesome job. My only critique would be the placement of his left foot, it would look much better flat against the books he's standing on. Other than that, very nice!

Zincite Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Thanks, I'll have to try that out. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233211-my-space-wizard/#findComment-2807375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Styphus Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 The hair is easily explain by his head motion. While the wind likes to blow, he throws his hair to-and-fro.
