Stern Iron Priest with Thrall Bodyguard

hey Dakka...
this is the fourth mini in my Gamer's Series, an experiment to see if gamers and collectors are interested in copies of the studio scheme painted to a studio quality...
you be the judge on wether or not i pulled it off, and ebay bidders will be the judge on wether or not there is a market for these minis...
they have sold well so far...
a full 360 view can be seen here:

the latest Imperial Guard Codex had some nice paintjobs in it...
they really went to town on the HQ's...
as soon as i saw the Lord Commissar, i knew i had to paint one...
unfortunately, commissions and contests got in the way, so this guy was sitting on my table 2/3 painted for months...
i'm glad to finally get this guy finished...
i had a lot of fun with the freehand trim on the cloak, as well as the fur on the back...
unfortunately, the photography really didn't do this one justice...
no matter what i did, i just couldn't capture things like the purple glow to the sword...
it was interesting to try painting metals in a NMM style...
this is the first time i've tried it, and it really makes a dramatic difference...
hope you like him...
thanks for lookin'...
cheers

Damnit, I just typed out a long review then it double posted. I changed it to 'urgh, double post' and then the second one disappeared. Argh! It's late here and it was quite long, so excuse my laziness that I won't type it out again. Apologies.

Very nice. I thought the purple was a touch jarring at first glance, but the more I see it the more I like it.

Can I suggest skipping forward 10 years to the age where you don't really care about what people say on the internet. Studies show that it decreases your anger about life in general by 37%. - Flashman |

The cloak and the the scarring + beard on the face are exquisite.
Very nice!
