This was a tricky one, a commission of which the base was sculpted out of miliput, and the guidelines were to make it look HOT, like tectonic plates floating on lava for the skin. I'd never really done this so i didn't really know how to go about achieving this, i started with a white basecoat and worked up in layers, feathering colours backwards (darker colours on top of lighter colours rather than the other way round) not the easiest thing i'll tell you, for those who haven't tried it. The colours i worked through were white, sunburst yellow, fiery orange, red gore and then chaos black. Comments and questions welcome. Thanks, Joe.

Body is unreal! Too bad the sword doesn't stand out on the model. Amazing paint job.

I really, really don't get things like this. The paint job is amazing. In fact, amazing doesn't do it justice... And so people post, they state that it's amazing and perfect and so on and so forth, then don't give it a ten... If you agree that the model is amazing, give it the score it deserves...
