Darth Mantis (CMON Contest #4)

My CMON Contest #4 entry, a Sith apprentice. This is the first mini where I've used a cork base, and it's also my first attempt at object source lighting. I even threw in a little NMM on the buckles for good measure. I'm not entirely happy with the sabers, but I've found it's almost impossible to paint a solid rod to really look the way lightsabers do on film. My source lighting method follows Victoria's tutorial in the annual - coloured glazes over a finished paint job. Pre-source lighting paintjob pics are here.
