I quite like this new sculpt of Orion, it has an awkawrd pose to photo, but i'm fond of additions to the model such as cloak of leaves, i wanted to give the model very natural colours, with him being "king of the woods" i thought this would fit much better, so most colours had scorched brown, chaos black and bleached bone mixed in. I decided to go for nmm because some of the metal had very sharp details that i felt would get lost with real metallics. For the base i used polystyrene blocks covered in plaster for the rocks, and hudson and allen studio ivy (painted the correct colour) for the leaves, all comments, critisms and questions welcome.

Nice mini, great base and a great paintjob. I particularly like the face even though I would expect Orion to look older.

Don't like the mini, but the paint is excellent. Good choice of colours - that cloak looks spot on
