An old commission on a beautiful model but in finecast

Eek, you couldn't bend that hammer straight?

Otherwise, awesome paintjob. What color did you highlight the armor with?

I was going to assume the handle got warped from knocking around too many skulls. Great paint job!

The handle is actually rope, hence the little black leather strap on the end, I found this out whilst browsing the warhammer world facebook page but aside from that, Really Great work, I adore the piece

That's a really nice piece of work there! I love the details on Arjac and you did a great job of making it all look good.

That's the excuse they're feeding for it being bent on every cast of him? LOL! It's a haft wrapped in rope, not made of rope, unless he's supposed to be armed with a squeaky inflatable hammer...

OT: Apart from the bendy hammer, very nice work.

Painting looks great. It looks wery clean, and thats hard with this models frail details in finecast.
Even with a straight handle that hammer mess up an othervise exelent model. Didnt know it was supposed to be rope, that makes a little more sense to the models pose, but still look odd to me.
Personally I cut the handle down to half and turned the hand in a different angel. Im wery pleased with the result.

Awesome model! I didn't know it was supposed to be rope, but either way doesn't detract from the paint job in my opinion.

I don't think the strap has anything to do with whether the the handle is rope or rigid. The hammer looks pretty straight on the GW 360 view of Arjac. Believe what you want.
