Competition

This model took second place at GenCon SoCal. I had always wanted to paint Celestine as she is one of my favorite models. I used Boltmans nnm tutorial over at Bolter and Chainsword. I am really happy with the results. I desided that since she was a saintly type figure I would give her the Emperors very own "golden cherubs". Plus it seemed like a pretty difficult thing to do so I thought I would try it. I also wanted to work on my freehand abilities which really suck, but I am getting a bit better. I wanted the wings to be subdued a bit which I think turned out just the way I wanted them to. Well anyways, cc is always welcome.

I would have given this a 6, because it was not MY Celestine that he painted, but he still stole the idea....dirty rotten ^%#$$@##@ However it is so well done, that I had to rate it much higher. The pictures simply do not do this justice.
