That is a beautiful piece. Really amazing work! Love all the detail and the base is really fantastic.

That is fantastic.

Thats a really nice, atmospheric peice. The highlighting on the cloak is a little stark for my tastes but otherwise its very good ..

Thanks guys

Nice, very nice, entering into GD this year?

Good job on the mini and I realy like the quote.

Let me just say that I fething love this. The model itself is stunning, the base is inspired, and the whole feel of the model could be related to 40k's "grim dark" motto.
Let me also just say that you are a MUCH better painter then me so dont take this is a major problem. IMO the blending on the purple cloak is a bit too, well, white.
I don't know about everyone else, but it just looks a bit off. The same could be said about the black part of the cloak, where it goes from grey to white, IMO far too quickly.
Anyway, its just nitpicking.

Summing up, AWESOME model.

If no one buys it form me on eBay I probably will do that but I think that he has no chance in single category.

yeah I think that it could be done better. Some more practice and I will get there.

Thanks for the comments!

I just have one problem with the model. The guy is clearly blind. What's he supposed to do with a book?

I'm with you, Norn King. The cloak and hood highlighting isn't bad, by any means, but it can't hold a candle to the work on the skeleton, book, basing, etc. which are absolutely breathtaking.

That is the funny part ^^.
A quote from my blog http://brovatar.blogspot.com/2012/05/which-page-massster.html

brovatar wrote:The engraving "Which page massster?" brings a little comedy to the model. It's a direct question to the Necromancer asked by his skeleton minion. The funny part about it is that the wizard is actually blind! But still it's Warhammer. He doesn't need to read the book to cast spells from it. It's enough that the tomb of death is made from human skin and written with blood.

oh i forgot to mention that he is for sale on eBay
