Beastlord Wip Project

[Karpiu]

This is second WIP of mine on this forum.
It is a simple Beastlord conversion that I made a while back and now I deicided to repaint it.
First of all I post a pic showing him and the current paintjob.

The main idea here is to paint him in matching colors to my Beastmen army.
I think a basecoat of graveyard earth and then give it a hignlight of a mix of graveyard earth with elf flesh.

But now first of all I need to strip the old paint :]

For now here is a pic of him. Hope you like the conversion :]

looks quite cool.

arms look a bit long tho.

Yeah Agree with that thought although with Chaos anything is possible it\'s still important to keep a sense of natural balance to a mini..
nice looking work though..

 

[Karpiu]

Heheh thought so as well but the idea was to make a beastlord turning into a Deamon Prince.
:]

Maybe painting a few reddish and purple blends into the flesh will convey this more...As well as Tilting the head back a bit as I\'m sure a demon manifesting itself in your body would sting a bit....
Been looking to figure out parts ....is it??
Bloodletter champ body (classic)
Demon Prince Arms.
Gorthor head and trophy rack..???

One other small point..Rather than the smooth gravel pieces on the base use something with more textur like slate or limestone..The more texture the better it works better and looks more in scale...
good luck

Heheheh you got all of the parts right. The arms are simply the Deamon Prince arms.

The idea with the head and with the base seam very good and as soon as I\'ll strip the mini from the paint I\'ll get working on this :]

One small update. The model is broken up in pieces and I\'m washing the paint of this one

Nice concept. Maybe have him standing on a pile of skulls tho.

I felt the arms were too long, and the position just didn\'t seem natural... like, he was modeling. Not really about to do anything.
