those pics are more aproximated to the real size however the pics are obviously bigger than the mini which is around 58 mm in total.
it was my last mini. it is 54mm scale.
it is inspired in a concept art based on the blood pact, a chaos troop from the novels of dann abnett.. one of my favourite book saga. i love this books..They are described in detail in UK White Dwarf 293.
The blood pact is formed by khorne cultists. they're disciplined troops and that is their greater danger and the reason why they became the biggest nightmare of the empire during the worlds of sabbat's "crusade..hey used to bring funny masks and redish clothes, in the most part of the cases dyed with the blood of their victims. Their bodies were full of ritual scars and self-inflicted wounds as consecration to their leaders and their god.
i thought it was a troop full of character and so good to represent something with a special scary and disgusting feeling..
the scars are drawn except the 2 principal ones of the face that are amixture of freehand and sculpt scar.
i sculpted all with milliput , green stuff and a mixture of both materials..the base of the back pack comes from the eldar ranger of inkisitor. It was painted with vallejo and citadel and oils to do some tones at last.
around 80 hours of scluptwork , cause i should redo a lot of parts, cause is my first 54 scale and it was a learning process to try to do some at that scale.. and a week to paint
it won gold at prestige and the slayersword on the last french golden demon 2006. it was a dream ...really more than a dream i could never imagine.. and it was a real pleasure to compite against some of the best masters like allan carrasco and kirill kanaev (yellow one) and all of other great painters and good friends (deucalion brothers, jmpn, karaikal, elroi, david w, borgio, axel de m, romain, yannik, and a lot of people more).
i dedicate it specially to EVA and my family (who they always believe in me and that encourages me a lot), Arango (you are my brother), Jose (jmpn- my jedi master) and freddy, the spanish team, and all the people who made me feel one of the most emotive and happy moments of my 22 years (allan c -great in all the moments)
Always I am going to remember the appreciation of the people, which they behaved with me as real friends, companions and with ellegance, politeness, respect and especially that made me taste the moment better than I had never imagined .. indeed, thank you very much.
special thanks my friends of andrea who give me suport, materials, plasticard tubes jejejeje (rafa  , milliput and pieces for the terrain like the resin (-joakin and cia) and of course to david (satanas) and lili, who let us to live with them for a few days and the do all way they needed to stay confortable there..you are a really good friends.. and to jeremie- it was so special to take the sword from your hands. thanks
sorry if it sounds melodramatic, but i feel the necessity to write it.

Bueno, aún no la había votado, pero se merece un 10. Como ya han dicho...la fuerza expresiva en la sencillez prima sobre la perfección técnica. |

Y como se me paso comentarte esta mini??? En fin, nada que no te haya dicho ya, es un claro ejemplo de que la tecnica perfecta no es necesaria para crear una obra de arte... ambientacion, fuerza y composicion... cojonuda. Estas en otro nivel... aunque las rusas digan lo contrario... aunque estan tan por debajo que no creo que ni las escuches... jejeje. Un abrazo |

Si además de la atmósfera y el ambiente, que ya dominas a la perfección y una gran realización como no podía ser de otro modo consigues meter movimiento y sensación de peso en una figura tienes realmente otra gran evolución y paso adelante en tu trabajo.... ¿la próxima hablará? |

Gotta love the messy, gritty feel this guy has. It is primarily the sculpting that fascinates me on this dude, he is just so lifelike! I particularily like the holes in his clothing, which is just amazingly well executed. So congratulations on a very deserved Slayer Sword Alfonso. I really look forward to see you again! |

Poco más que decir. Creo que eres uno de los mejores pintores del mundo y buena prueba de ello es esta obra de arte del siglo 21. Tambien decirte que opino que sacas más partido, pero mucho más a ese arte en la escala de 54mm que en 28mm. Te deja mostrar mejor esos cambios de color y veladuras y tonos tan increibles que haces. Con estas imagenes creo que aprendemos todos un poco más de este bonito mundillo.
Un saludo!, Carlos. |

Pues lo mismo que te dije en el otro, que algo asi solo se merece una espada como la que te has llevado, asi que corre, a seguir pintando que te quiero ver pillando la espada de alemania, UK y españa, y asi hacer pleno.
Saludos!!! |
