Popular Post odinsgrandson Posted April 13, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2016 Here is a project that I really got to get into. My client wanted an Imperial Knight that had turned to Tzeentch. It was to be allied with his Chaos Daemons force, so it did not need to be a Thousand Sons Knight. There is only a little bit of conversion here- the head was swapped out for the head of a High Elf Phoenix. Otherwise, the alignment was all down to coloration. I wend with a blue to purple fade for most of the armor plating- I felt this was right for the god of change, and the bright pink contrasted nicely with that (and also matched a force composed largely of pink horrors). Of course, it isn't right to leave any Imperial Knight mini without freehand, so I made sure to get a lot of the Changing God's iconography all over him. 36 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jokemeister Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Wow! That is not only a marvelous paintjob but a brilliant interpretation of the client's request as well. I bet the client was chuffed to bits to get something like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odinsgrandson Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 Awesome freehand! And the head swap is brilliant to make it Tzeentch.. Thanks. At first, I was considering creating the headdressings of the Thousand Sons for him, but my client pointed out that he's not necessarily TS, since he's joining a daemon force (I've painted lots of those daemons in smallish batches). Pretty much everything here was informed by that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking_hank Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 dude I simply can not look at your work, it is too good. I started a clockwork dragon, wyrmgear, and had to shelve it for awhile after my wife pulled an image of your wyrmgear off the internet. too good. I sit in my shop and berate myself for not being able to reproduce your works of wonder. shame on me for not being awesome as odin's grandson. then I remember "oh wait he is a professional artist his work is so pose to be awesome!" then I just enjoy your website. Seriously I love this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
