Nurgle Champion - Fly Mutation

Hi guys! :) This is a really nice old GW mini, sculpted about a decade before I was born :D it was a lot of fun to paint, practicing dirty metallics and freehand (those checks took forever...), and applying gloss to appropriate areas for that "gooey" look. The head is not very well-focused unfortunately, I was really happy with his eyes but i couldn't photograph them very well... I tried to create a metallicy-rainbow effect, like a real fly's eyes, and they turned out rather nicely. I'm pretty pleased overall with this piece, but he'll be going on eBay soon so i can pay of my iPod debts :D Watch this space! I hope you like him - thanks for looking, all v&c much appreciated as always :) Cheers ~~~~Bill

Out of curiousity how much did it go at auction for? Screw Ipod BTW! I love this model and the paint job. I simply don't know what to say.
