Here is my first attempt at warmachine and with P3 paints as well. Been into other systems but I'm a warmachine noob...

Damn phone....

1. Rotate the photos

2. Remove the paints from the background and take new ones(or better yet, place a neutral colored sheet of paper blocking that stuff), your camera is focusing on them, not on the model


Other than that, doesn't look too bad.

I am looking into trying out convergence and your painting looks nice. At least the scheme looks cool, tough to make out the details. Take more pictures!!!

I love the pots of paint.

Looks like a some very good painting of the worst miniature privateer has yet produced.

From an assembaly perspective it certainly is a monstrosity, but as a sculpt I've always been a fan actually. I can only imagine how terrifying and otherworldly it would be to see it in action. This silent statuesque pillar floating across the battlefield accompanied by two whirling swiss army knives.

Going by how static and devoid of motion the sculpt is, I can't imagine it doing anything other than standing still in battle.

That is fair, but to be honest given Syntherion's form there's really not much motion to be done. I do think that sticking it on a flight stand would have helped a lot to make it look more dynamic and less like some kind of weird statuary terrain piece.

Think Jailbot from Superjail. He may be a static form, but his little arms are moving constantly.
