Hey all... A friend of mine paid me to paint his Emperor's Champion model with an alternate color scheme (white armor) so here is the model. Mind you my friend asked me to leave the base undone, as he will do it himself so it will match the rest of his army. The model was painted twice allready and my friend said it would be ok if i didn't strip the paints off of it before repainting it. I still had to fix some moldlines and apparently the hip holster is missing from the model, but still it came out looking decent tabletop standard that was more than enough for my friend. Oh and sorry for the crappy photos. I didn't have my tripod for the camera, so the images are a bit blurry

I like the inverted color scheme. I would have liked to see the shoulder pad black with a white cross for a complete inversion, but that's just my opinion. Regardless, I think it's looking good.

Part of me loves it, part of me thinks its heresy.

Unfortunately models displayed in the Showcase are obliged to be finished down to the base, so I must move this thread to P&M forum.

wow mods are now really strictly enforcing this basing rule... is this new?

@OP
looking good but the white does look a little bit chalky, but thats not your fault it happens to everyone painting white with brushes

Good to know...since I paint all my bases black I now know not to try posting anything in the Showcase.

Rules are there for a reason not to mention part of signing up with Dakka is agreeing to ALL the rules they have put forth. So I think it is good that the mods are enforcing them.

Really badass. I feel like it probably would have looked a bit smoother if you had stripped down the paint under it though.

The white really brings out the details that you can miss with a standard colored Champion and the eyes make him look really badass.
