Hello All!


Here are pics of a Vampire Counts "Black Coach".

This was a recent commission work.
It is modeled and painted as requested.

The skeletal horses were replaced with a different set of horses. They were sent by the customer.

The coffin lid is pinned open to be able to see the vamp inside.


I hope you like it.

Thanks
D.

Fantastic! What I find most impressive is the variety of finishes you've managed to suggest with the various blacks. The wheels, the coach cab, the driver's shroud, the horses' bodies and manes/tails, the coffin - every single black element feels like a distinct material with its own particular (and appropriate) luster.

Like Oadie said above I love the different blacks I always find it a difficult colour to do right but you've nailed it

I think it looks great, really like the regular horses also!

Wow, really nice! Love the colours!
Also, nice to see someone using "regular" horses for the Coach. I've always been irked by the fact that the Black Coach is supposed to be drawn by Nightmares, but come packed with, pretty obviously, Skeletal steeds.

Thank you. That is what I was trying for.

That looks fantastic.

I always enjoy a well painted black coach!

Thanks,
I like the black horses more than the skeletal ones too.

Glad the customer sent them as replacments. They just look more the part than the skeletals did anyway.
