This year I set myself to a great personnal challenge: Attempt my first full sculpt, and no NMM! I must confess that the torso is a plastic terminator chest which I enlarged and re-worked, but otherwise my result is all sculpted.

It appears my motto since the Juggernaut remains true: Pushing yourself to go above and beyond what you can currently do is the best way to learn and improve your work. I honestly never thought I could achieve a result I would be so proud of. It is far from a perfect sculpt, but I have learned a lot through it, in both sculpting and painting. I owe Jérémie (Bragon) zenithal light sourcing and Allan the Steel metallics. I like to think my work on the red and gold is my own "Messieurs, je vous remercie et vous salue!"

I hope you enjoy this adaptation of my style, moving towards more realistic effects, though it retains a certain fantasy appeal in the colors which I enjoy. I believe it is my best work to date, and I look forward to my next full sculpt project, this time I will go for more organic shapes... and no more red for a while

Another beautiful mini from you Vincent. Seriously impressive! I don't suppose you've got any photos of the sculpt and painting in progress, or a tutorial like the one for Magmatrax? Your work is very inspirational. Congratulations on your work so far. Keep it up!

Simply stunning! The best Khorne themed mini i've ever seen. Great balance of colours, just the right amount of detail and a cracking base.

love the pose the insignia on the back of the cape...first time ive seen it on a chaos lord...the scrapes and cuts seen in his armour are just awsome....and what i like about it its not demonicly gifted (as in mutations of any resemblence of a deformed human)..just pure power of him and his chain axe...
