Chaos Sorcerer Necromancer
This piece was entered in the Fantasy Single Miniature category at Gamesday Baltimore 2005. It made first cut, surprisingly enough. That's a recurring theme for me; always enter an undead or necromancer style piece in every Gamesday I go to. ^_^ The Chaos Sorcerer is a simple conversion. I thought the hand blade thingee he had was sort of dumb looking, so I turned it into a scythe. Because scythes are like, cool and stuff. Also, I didn't want to mess with object-source lighting (I'm fairly good at doing it, I just don't LIKE doing it), so I yanked off his fire-encrusted claw and gave him the scythe arm from that nurgle rider guy that GW makes. The puppet is just a chaos familiar attached to the arm with wire and thread, but kinda goes with the whole "AR1ZE FROM UR GRAVE U R PWND BY MY NECRO PWRS K THX ." Oh, the tree is sculpted. I covered up one of the limbs in the photo with an insert, but I very much like how the tree came out. Garbage-bag wire twisted around and covered with brown stuff, then "scored" with a pin or sculpting tool. Takes forever to do since you have to wait between doing each branch or trunk to have a solid base to work from, but looks oh so nifty. Kep
