The Rise of the Eldest Faction In The Carthax Sector: Xanthite Warband

Nice colour scheme! What's that by his foot, is it a book? I couldn't comment on the eyes though, I've never tried something like that myself, and I don't think the photo does it justice. Could we have some more angles please?

I'd echo the comment on the loincloth though - the design seems a bit indecisive. Perhaps the bottom half of an Inquisitorial =][= ?

[Van Helser]

Thanks all.

The design on the cloth is meant to be circuit board-like - his sorcerous powers tie in to corrupted tech.  I may redo it.

I've had mixed comments on the eyes so far.  I may go and look at some more models with eye-shine and see what I could do to emphasise them some more.

It's a book on the ground Rob, from Delphan Gruss.  There are also some sorcerous symbols painted on the base.  When I make changes to the model I'll come back with a couple of different angle shots.

These are amazing models, the mutie and the psyker in particular; they look like the parts were always intended to go together.

I'm in awe of the paint job on the inquisitor's coat - open expanses like coats are something I've yet to get right.
The eye-glow just needs to spread over a smaller area, I think.  If the eyes are the light source then the brow would block the glow from reaching the forehead and it looks to extend a little far around the sides.
My first impression was that the glow was coming from within the skull as he focuses his power into it, which I thought was really cool.

Man, these guys look fantastic! I particularly love the mutant's feral yellow eye. The inquisitor also has a really great pose and paint job Can't wait to see that assassin

The Inquisitor's pose is like something out of a Shakespeare play.  Was it Macbeth?  " Alas poor Horatio, for I knew him well." 

Great pose!  I find it can be the most challenging part of creating a new model is finding a pose that speaks volumes about their character.

[Gilleon]

I believe you mean Hamlet... "Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio; a fellow of infinite jest"..... but agreed, excellent pose, and a nice paint job to boot.

Thanks for the correction.      Alas, my poor mind has failed me again.
