This was a beast to do. It’s pinned with brass tubing, brass welding rod, even more brass pins then glued using epoxy and thick set cyanoacrylate. The model is pinned to the base with more brass and epoxy then sealed to the base with hot glue.


Was a lot more work than I expected but was a joy to do.

any feedback is welcomed

Wow awesome work looks so realistic you really have captured the essence of a daemon captured here

I like the painting, it's pretty nice, but 2 small things:

- image sizes: today morning when I tried to view this thread on my home computer (relatively old) chrome crashed every time because of the many large images. Maybe it affects only me or others who have old pc-s, but it was annoying

- mould lines: if you paint a big,impressive, central model like that, why don't you take the time to remove all the mouldlines? where it's really visible: neck left side and left arm, axe handle, neck right side (here the arm looks ok), armor on right arm, (not sure, on one pic it looks like that, on others not) armorpanels on right leg, on the wing all the way down, back of the axe (especially at the closed part)

So in a way it an impressive model painted to a high standard, butchered by mouldlines everywhere.

This is awesome it really show your skill at painting

The custom base is a great touch the lava doesn't look too bright

I love it
