Praying Angel

This is a little diorama of mine, showing a kneeling Blood Angel Termi in front of a scratchbuilt altar. Not an easy mini to photograph, i am still not sure about the presentation... But alas, i constructed it myself: so no one else to blame. It combines two obsessions of mine: angelic symbols (the sanguinius relief was something i wanted to do for years, but never got around to) and cutting those blocky GW plastic terminators into little pieces- only to reassemble the guy in a more dynamic pose with some extra bits here and there. As the lighting is solely provided by candles i used yellow in abundance, even the red armour got a nice orange hue where the light falls onto it. ....ah yes! let me know what you think! thanks for watching!

Thank you all for commenting! in this case it was doubly helpful as i didn´t notice the "topplin´Termi" effect myself (Painters tunnel-view, i suppose) and wanted to show the mini off in a local painting contest. So i was spared a few laughs i guess.... by the way:i hate admitting it, but these pics are already the best i managed(to date)! i constantly try to decide how many angles a mini needs to be seen ok, and this one was a real nightmare as one single shot couldn´t hope to get it all in, which in turn made the 100k a dire prospect paid for in pic quality... (if this sounds like a cry for help- it is just that!) but i try to improve, so a repost is not impossible- watch this space!
