That looks amazing.
The GW avatar model is a bit 'boring' and small, but that reposing, extra sword and changes to the head make that really nice. Your Lava looks great as well, looks quite thick and real.

Probably work

That's really slick. If you had said "Red and green" Avatar without the picture, I'd have thought "Oh no, Christmas Avatar!" You pulled it off, and made it look awesome in the process.

I also really like the two sword stance. It looks like a 5th edition model. If I had to pick one thing about it to criticize, it would be that the left hand looks a little plain compared with the other one.

Fair to say, I actually agree, that hand was stolen from an Ogre kingdoms weapon hand, it needs some green stuff armor to be really matching. I used it because it was the right scale, and that's about it.

I did this as a nice play piece and I didn't quite pull out those stops. Probably would have been worth it.

I think a Green loincloth or some other color would have been better perhaps, it's not quite the same standard as the rest.

Thanks for all the comments!

That's a sweet conversion and an awesome paint job.
