Celestine The Living Saint

From the first time I saw this model I knew I had to paint it. IMO it's the best Games Workshop sculpt of the past 2 years. The facial expression, the pose and the many details and overall gothic feel makes this miniature of exceptionally high quality. So I had to put a paintjob on this one that should do this model honour. The base is made up out of cork bits, a plastic gothic arc from the 40K scenery set, and sand. Long before I bought this model I already knew I wanted to do a gold and red color scheme. When Mayne Thiele's version appeared, I was inspired by his use of a limited color pallette.

I would have said: "It is impossible to paint Celestine badly", if I hadn´t seen a very badly painted version just today. Your version is great though. I especially like the palette you used.

8.7 One thing I noticed, the crest of spikes is poorly done in relation to the rest of the mini. Of course the rest of the mini is near perfect.
