still alot to be done, especially nmm gold part and the crozius thingy. I'll get started on that later today

[Skrit]

So far he looks really great, especially the parchment! (not my favourite Chaplain model though...)

[Theotril]

Looks very promising.

[Kuczek]

I like the armour

[Szary]

Hard to say anything at this stage. But I`m curious about one thing... How have you placed mini on this cap? It`s not glued, am I right?

[Mordred]

as you can see on the picture he is glued to a square metal plate ( a little edge is sticking out ) , the cap is a magnet holding the model. when it is finished I just break the metal plate from under the model.

I have to admit, not my favourite chaplain but you are doing well on it. I love the parchment, looks aged. Care to give the recipe? I do like the blue edging of the armour, different to the normal grey and adds a bit of colour/character to it.

the blue armour was requested by the customer. I quite like it myself, the colour scheme is working pretty well.

The parchment is vallejo leather brown + snakebite leather ( Don't know the vallejo name ) + bleached bone for highlights. to shade I used abit of black grey, it works really well.

The parchment is excellent and I really like the highlights on the armour - they are effective, interesting and realistic, and the armour looks black not blue.

I am only unsure about the helmet, the highlight seems to be placed where I would expect a shadow. Or maybe it's only a misleading photo?

[ToMaZ]

very nice so far. I love the parchment. Scratches look cool too, except for the big one on his helmet. That one isn't completly correct I think. I think the white line on the top shouldn't be there.

Waiting for more
