Hey guys, finally finished assembling and painting my converted Master!
It took so long because I had so much trouble gluing the damned chain the skulls were hanging off of to his hand without it breaking off or falling off.

I used the CoK Champion sword and torso, a CoK helmet + crest, a Corsair arm for the chain arm, of course a Sea Dragon Cloak from the corsairs, and just warrior legs for the bottom. The skulls came from the Warrior command sprue and the Orc Warrior sprues. The chain for the skulls was cut off the chained kamas on the Corsair sprues.

I really like what happened with the sword (modelled by artist interpretation of what the magic item Soulrender looks like) even though there is a mistake on the outward half of the blade due to a misjudgment in thin-ness of the paint. The cloak was by far the hardest to integrate the blue and purple in a pretty way but I THINK for the most part I did a pretty good job all things considered. The biggest problem I had was with the gold metallic paint coming out splotchy (it has done so everytime I've used it, see my Black Guard photos in gallery to see further what I mean). I think the gold trim on the legs was a nice touch though, it breaks the blandness of the base legs I used I think.



What do you guys think?

Looking good. To counter gold or bronze looking blotchy, toss in some dark flesh or scorched brown. It makes an addiotional highlight step necessary, but it's really worth it IMO.
