Looks good. The flayed skin is suitably gross.

Well done.

 

Good armor too.

I like the way you reserved the use of the blonde hair color for that one area to really draw attention to his face.  Awesome!

[Arc 724]

Looks good.

I had not really noticed that! And how it is Super blond in the front but tapers off in the back! WELL DONE!

Really like how you control the eye movement with your paint selecting.

That Blood/gore red to draw the eye in, and the attention shift to the pale face,

the sides of the throne almost in marble, clean, and it fights with the

carnage on the back and front.

Really well thought out.

Congrats !

Uggghhhh, I had no idea that was a flayed skin at the front, from looking at my Bones figure.  So gross!  Very nicely done.

Great work on the throne and the head change.

I thought a lot about the colors before I started, so I am glad it's noticed. It's something I am trying to learn, but it's a slow progress. Could be this was just lucky. That is the thought when I look at how his bride turned out. :P

I love the flayed skin. I didn't notice that when I bought the miniature, and was like: "WTF!? That is soo cool!" This sculpt is just so incredibly detailed. :D

Actually googled flayed skin to get an idea of how to paint it. :P Not recommended for the faint of heart.

I originally thought to give him black hair, but it looked really flat, so after trying blonde, I was much happier. :)

It's not really a head change. The set comes with four heads to choose from. Skull, bat-form, helmet and normal human. I am aiming to portray 'beauty in undeath' or something like it, so the fair head was an easy choice. :)

Wow, what a great mini. Very well done.

[Edsterdoom]

Apologies I thought this was the Bones version. I didnt know the other one came with options.

No worries. :) This is full metal.

I like the color selections, especially the contrast between the reddish armor and his hair against the stone throne.

The armor was inspired by the Bram Stoker's Dracula movie.

Awesome!!
