Saint Celestine

My first submission to CMON. Been lurking for a long time... Yes, another St. Celestine. I know, there are 5,000 of them (give or take), but it is just so pretty that I really was inspired to flex a bit with it. I spent probably 40 hours altogether on the model, spread over a couple of months. For this mini, there are a lot of firsts for me. The halo is NMM- I've never done it before. This is also the first semi-major conversion (wings and flames on the blade), as well as the first freehand on the back of the cloak. Also, I tried a bit of source lighting on the wing from the sword. I truly apologize for the photo quality- camera phones are not designed for detail work! But I hope that the composition of the figure (conversions, colors) can come through, even if you can't see the fine details! Like many people say, the photo doesn't do it justice...

Hello there! Good to see more new people finding CMON and posting, warm welcome to you from me :) To the mini, the picture is horrible and kills the beautiful paintjob. I can see that this mini has potential for much higher scores, but the pictures take it down. I can only give you a 7 now, and thats pretty high to the quality of the photo. I think it would be solid 8 otherwice. Dont take my words too hard though, just an opinion of mine :)
