Pictures are a small bit fuzzy, but it looks awesome man! REP fo you!

[Hephesto]

Very nice, the fire in his hand in particular worked out very nicely. Looks like quite a challenging mini as well!

[Snoza]

Thanks guys, :), sorry about the fuzziness.

@heph, it is a very challenging mini to paint, but it was also a very fun model as well :)

aye great work on the model, I'm liking the fire in the hand and the skulls on the back....have some rep :D

[Nomad]

Looks much better in real life mate, those pics really don't do it justice. For reference, I saw this model last week and was awe struck - Snoza did a beautiful job on it. The pics don't show the toning and the detail an the model.

Here is how i did it:
basecoat of bestail brown, drybrushed with Bleached bone, and a very let drybrush to the raised areas with skull white, and after that a wash of badab black.

hope that helps
