St Celestine - wing conversion?

Indeed they ship world-wide and I personally consider their international shipping fees to be very reasonable compared to other places.

Depending on the actual weight of your order you are looking at 8/12/16€ (~10-20$) to the US with a delivery time between 2 and 2.5 weeks

Way back in the day, I had a character fig whom I used to lead my Sisters in smaller fights (seemed silly for the Canoness to lead every mission). Sister Valeria was one of my coolest Seraphim conversions, as she used a plastic flying base, she carried a glaive taken from a Slaneeshi champion, and her backpack added a pair of feathered wings gotten from the old Swooping Hawk Exach model. I still have her, and she's one of my favourite conversions, I'm just lost as to where to place her in a Sixth Edition army.

this is one i did for a commission, using the feather wings from the dark eldar kit of 5 people with wings, forget the name; theyre just filthy xenos to be shot anyways :P

i converted, and then painted it for the guy. not satisfied with the blue on the black wings, so i might redo it for him at a later date.

haha, that is my favorite part of her actually.  i took a dremel and smoothed out the spikey short hair to start with.

then i took a small amount of green stuff and layered that on in a gentle sloping wave over her back and where the wings would attach.

to make the locks of hair, i gently pressed the back of my knife into the green stuff to make the larger lines and shapes to suggest the direction her hair was going.

then i took a sewing pin and gently, and slowly so i wouldn't tug or warp the green stuff, dragged it downwards within the 'sections' i made with the knife to give the appearance of the hair strands.

 

on the 2nd last pic, you'll notice a deeper looking line on the side of her head; that's one of the lines from the knife. the other lines are from the pin.

 

the hair was painted with Dryad Bark to start with, then i drybrushed Longbeard Grey on, and dusted a little Praxeti White near the crown of her head, and on the big sweep her hair does off her shouldpad
