I was going for a "I'm-ready-to-strike-but-I'll-taunt-you-like-Bruce-Lee-first" pose with his left hand. Try to imagine him flipping his fingers up and down as if beckoning you closer.
Both wrists and the weapon mount have magnets in them for situations where I don't want the Wraithsword or I want a different heavy weapon.


Here's some thumbnails. Click 'em for bigger pics.

Here's a close-up of his Wraithsword and hand:






Unfortunately, I still have some learning to do with my camera and new lightbox. The highlighting is blended EXTREMELY gradual and it just doesn't seem to show up as well in these pics. Like the orangse on the sword. You can kinda see it, but it didn't photograph nearly as bright as it is in real life.
Meh.

The 1st thing that springs to mind: Come closer so i can hit you with my sword!


But yea, jokes aside its a nice models, painting is pretty crisp and the colours work well.
the pose makes it 100x better though

Suffused with the dying memories of Sanguinus, the warriors of the Death Company seek only one thing: death in battle fighting against the enemies of the Emperor.

I absolutely love the pose. The model has a ton of life this way.

Mad kudos to you.

You need to get rid of the communist lightbox (ie change your background to a neutral colour). Other than that, great job! Work on using a finer brush to do the shimmering stars, though. That's my only gripe, really

Thanks for the comments. I'm a big fan of the pose, too. I absolutely LOVE the new WL model. It's so much more inclined for customization. Personally, I think this was one of the best re-sculpts G-Dubbs has made in a very long time. Maybe since the 3rd ed. Tyranids.

Unfortunately, this lightbox only came with that red, dark blue, black, and white. I may try to use the white next time. It seems like it may reflect the light some more and brighten up the model some more. Also, the stars didn't turn out as well as they normally do. It's a common motif throughout my entire army. Problem is, after all that blue blending, there was really no way to cover them up to re-paint them. Oh well. I plan on doing a couple more Wraithlords eventually, so I'll make sure to tighten up those stars.

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah the white background should definitely help out. If it doesn't, I'd try the black next. Lets see some pics of the rest of your army!
