Dante!


gainsay

Recommended Posts

Second mini I've painted in years! I know the conversion is not the most exciting conversion in the world but I did not want the current fig. I did not want him to be glowing gold also so hes a bit more bronze. No space marine should wear angel wings... ever... ;)

 

Pics from the iphone! :? Hope you like!

just have to say I love the sanguinary guard wings. I can't be the only one. 10 sang guard with their wings, dante, a priest, maybe a chaplain. There's your army. That's one of my favorites.

 

Edit: yes I know that's a bad list, but boy is it fun to see papa smurf and his honor guard get ground to pieces.

It is indeed a wonderfully built and painted miniature, but to me it doesn't look like Dante.

 

To me it looks like a Sanguinary Guard.

You're living in the past man The Dante model sucks and the sang guard were inspired from his image in the first place! I will give you a more Dante like death mask would have been cool. Oh and it's his lucky chalice charm duh! It will pen snap off during battle lol

I agree that current Dante sucks (though he looks good painted blue) and like I said, it is a beautiful mini and it far outsrips my talent level, but it just does not say Dante to me. It isn't grandiose enough for a thousand year old artist. Too 'stock'.

 

If you like it, ultimately that is all that matters.

to be fair I had simliar feelings after finishing the model. Might give it another go with a donate i picked up for 6$ on ebay and chop em up.
