Hiya folks, just finished my spare AOBR Captain for the Founding make your own chapter event tomorrow at my local GW. Chapter is going to be the Crimson Drakes (hope this isnt taken...), chapter symbol is on bottom right of cloak (looking from back) as there wasnt room on the shoulder. Captain is from the 4th company hence the green trim and scales (and power sword to match). Blending on power sword is pretty horrible but was my first try at using a colored sword instead of just using a metallic. Lemme know what you think!






Comments and criticism welcome, thanks for looking.

I like the front,
really do.

But the freehand at the back is REALLY hard to make it look good. The green is nice, but the drake looks a little odd on the model, just a tad to cartoony, but that's just me.

The rest looks nice,
haven't seen this colour scheme before (or that I remember) and you've done a good job on kepping it clean and tidy.

Would recommend that the base be a different colour,
it pulls from the model as it is so bright, say a deeper green.

Keep the posting

drake looks great, but next time try making it darker and open its mouth for all the teeth to show.

Thanks for the comments folks, mini still won me the store credit (yay!) so I'm pretty happy with it. Had quite a few things I tried on this guy and learned a lot both in technique and colors which I'll carry over to my Crimson Fists.
