The last I really remember was an old Warhammer Chaos lord. I find the color a little tricky to paint, the highlights often come off as looking too extreme in my limited experience. <br /><br /> Adam Wierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710889303035437886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3901426566557963132.post-50336169000505715482016-10-13T15:56:14.114-07:002016-10-13T15:56:14.114-07:00Thanks for the kind words!

I don't think I have seen you use the color blue too much over the years (or for that matter the cream color of the coat), so seeing it in use and done so well is quite impressive. The model further invokes a sense of grimdarkness (lol) by the rust spots on the base and the smudges and combat damage on the Arbite's attire, and the stripe on the helmet evokes a WWII-esque feel (I'm in charge, but there are countless others like me). Last but not least, nothing says "justice" like a wheel gun!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14077638366144771363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3901426566557963132.post-49935938308595646062016-10-12T08:23:17.020-07:002016-10-12T08:23:17.020-07:00That is fantastic!
