Hi!
This is my first almost total sculpt. I usually avoid conversion and such because I am not very good. So it is my first sculpt of an arm, leg, wing, head, etc. A little rough but I tried.
The look was based on a painting by Blanche on page 17 of The Horus Heresy Vol I: Visions of War.
This is the "green" version of my near full sculpt (85%) of the Imperial Fist Primarch Rogal Dorn. I had intended to make a 100% sculpt of Dorn but was desperately running out of time for a GD entry. It was made from Sculpty, Fimo, Green epoxy putty and Brown epoxy putty, and some GW plastic parts. Hence the many different colours.
Some differences are that the studded collar was later abandoned and the rivets moved down to the breastplate. A brass piece on the gun was removed for the photo and when I had started painting. The yellow stuff around his neck is yellow-tack just holding his head for the picture, his head would be properly attached after painting later.
The GW parts are the grenade, holster, various sword bitz for the chainsword, three different pieces for the gun, the arms from the plastic terminators which were cut , lengthened and partially sculpted over and a few brass bits from Forgeworld.

Cheers!

Kudos for stepping up to the challenge Angela, and it's a great job, first attempt or not.

I would give it a 9 for results and +1 for stepping up to a challenge and attempting a full sculpt (or just about). The boots seem to lack a bit of refinement compared to the upper body and his left leg could have been a bit higher to follow the guideline given by his extended arm and cape, and add to the general flow of the miniature. The shoulderpads and eagle are my favorite features. Great work!

Outstanding, you must have the patience of an angel to create those swirls.
