Converted 40K-scale Inquisitor
A heavily converted Ordos Xenos Inquisitor for the Warhammer 40K game. Based on the Fabius Bile model, I spent considerable time just filing off and puttying over the Chaos details. I swapped the weapons for a power sword and plasma pistol (excellent for cracking open power armour), the backpack for Azrael's banner pole backpack, and added numerous Inquisitor bits and a purity seal. The base is one of corrugated metal plasticard. Painting-wise, this could be some of my best blending yet. Rather than layering the shades and highlights, I ended up using a technique called "wet-blending", where I mixed a drying retardant into my paints, lengthening the drying time enough for me to actually blend the colours right on the model! It was damn time-consuming, and not something I would do again unless I was competing in the Golden Demons (this model was my 40K single entry). I pulled out all the stops on this one, and it represents enormous time and effort. Incidentally, this Inquisitor placed in the final cut at the 2002 Canadian Golden Demons.
