Title: Finished the last touches, ex thief and bounty hunter here comes Galb Mantikhore
Post by: judge-minos on March 18, 2011, 07:20:05 AM
Hi everyone, I finally put the last touches to a model that I started nearly a year ago.

I am pretty happy how he came out, let me know what you think

nice highlights, though they probably should be dulled a bit

Great conversion.

For the jacket, did you mean it to be dark blue or black? For clean black leather, highlight with Space Wolf Grey, for dark blue, use Mordian Blue and then Ice Blue on just the sharpest points.

I would never step on his Blue Suede Boots.


Looks good, like the conversion. The Gun Belt is really nice.

thanks everyone, I agree that that the highlighting seems to be a little too vivid, It seemed good in natural light but the camera brings up the reality.

I might give it a wash and see what comes.

I would definitely give it a wash or two with Badab black. It is a very cool conversion, and an otherwise fine paint job, but those highlights are a bit off.

I like the gun, but I think that the best part is the face. The hair and beard are really well sculpted, and the eyes look superb.

very cool miniature! the paintjob is nice, but i would add two layers of watered down badab black or devlan mud.

and the face reminds me of serj tankian from system of a down.
