Alright alright!
Sicks, that's because posting to Facebook is a simple tap on my phone, but posting here is more effort. I've been lazy.
However, here he is, His Pompousness Himself, Lich Lord Terminus:
View attachment 47940
Ghastly model, I think the sculptor was drunk or in a hurry, it has loads of weird details I just can't figure out what is. However, he wasn't all that bad to paint (I just stopped thinking about what everything was), and making the custom base was loads of fun. It has a LED under the crystal, the light isn't super strong but at a somewhat badly lit gaming table, you can see the flicker. There's still some work to do, some extra highlighting and cleaning up, as well as some OSL, but I'm nearly there.

That looks cool, I'm interested to see the led effect, I seem to have found myself with 6 LEDs after my partner bought me some Street lights meant for model railways, they arent wired at all though so I would have to find out how to do that but I think the LEDs are removable

It is pretty simple, Sicks, but you'll need some parts and basic technical knowhow. I took the easy way - I dismatled an electric tea candle, they fit nicely into the 50mm base, and then I have the wiring, power button and battery compartment all ready for me.
Krule - I AM sure about the mini, it sucks. I wasn't lucky enough to get the version with resin wings, so it is also ridiculously heavy. I hope they make a resculpt, the concept art is awesome.
Now! A CMoN Exclusive never seen on Facebook - Erebus:

Not much to look at yet.... but I got the swing of these helljacks now; I'll get him up to snuff quickly.

II think with the lich lord you've done the best with a not so great mini, I think I need to find a switch +battery setup for my LEDs but I'm sure Google can help, I prefer the idea of dismantling things though lol, seems like it'll be simpler since I don't know where to find the bits I need and I don't have a soldering iron (which presumably I'll see) I'll keep my eye out next time I'm at the cheap store,, there's bound to be something suitable
This new one is looking pretty good so far, I've never seen warmachine minis in person so it's pretty cool seeing all these minis

I've had a little trouble with images tipping this way and that lately... we'll see what happens now. Worst case you'll all look silly while looking at them sideways.

I always hated his wings, they just look so bad. Maybe he'll get an update in MKIII. Are you excited for it?
