Well, everyone.

Arc724 made the following comment in his guidelines for his exchange mini:
"I'm starting a Star Wars RPG Campaign, so if you can paint me a Sith or Jedi, you'd have a new friend forever."

 

Challenge Accepted...

 

As soon as I saw this figure years ago I thought "He'd make a great Sith."  Now I had the chance to prove it.

I call him Bel'Rheol.  That was a jumble of the letters in Hellbore (which is the only name on the blister card).

He has a weird spiral hat, so I Ret-Conned that to make him a Twi'Lek.  In reading on the Wookieepedia, I came across a Headmistress at a Sith Assassin Academy named Darth Traya who was pale with black eyes from "seeing with the force."

I used that idea.

 

I originally envisioned short sabers (Shoto) like dagger length, but they ended up like long short-swords.

I modified his toes to be less "Jester-Like" and more Sci-Fi acceptable, with little green stuff soles.

He is on a Secret Weapon 30mm Tau Ceti base.  The shoto are sewing needles. (see WIP when done).

I'll get into colors, thoughts and ideas more in the WIP, which it looks like will be later since I just got paged to go in to work...

      02126, Arachno-Assassin
      By Metalchaos
      Hello everyone, here are some pictures of a 02126, Arachno-Assassin sculpted by Bob Ridolfi. I had this damaged mini for a long time and I decided to replace its upper left hand falchion for a sword from the 02455, Weapons pack IV. It was a very fun and easy model to paint. I intend to use it as a "boss" in a major encounter, so I painted it in red to increase the focus on it and point out how dangerous it is. The bluish bladed sword will be magical, maybe even cursed.

      Skeleton Horde
      By Metalchaos
      Hello everyone, here's what I painted last week, a Skeleton Horde by Games Workshop / Citadel Miniatures from 1986. I mounted them on 25mm base and converted a few of them. I used remaining parts from other minis and changed some shields, skulls and weapons. I also printed two army trays to be able to move them more easily and change their arrangement on the game table. There's 16 skeletons in total and I intend to use them during future D&D games.

      02615, Female Bloodguard
      By Metalchaos
      Hello everyone, I completed this one last night. 02615, Female Bloodguard was sculpted by Dennis Mize. I removed the axe she was holding in her left hand and replaced it with a shield from a 14359 Crimson Knight.

      44109, Enlarged Dark Dwarf Striker
      By Metalchaos
      Hello everyone, here are pictures of the last Dark Dwarf I painted for my Duergar squad. I converted a 44109, Enlarged Dark Dwarf Smiter sculpted by Bobby Jackson to make it look more like a Striker. I changed the original hammer head for a 3D printed two sided meat tenderizer and added the eye patch. Thanks to Derek feedback, I really pushed myself on this one. I think I spent something like 3 or 4 hours on the beard only. It is standing on a 2 inches square base. The ball and chain are made of Milliput and a 3mm hobby chain. Your comments are welcome. Group pictures coming soon.
