GW High Elf lord king noble guy on Griffon

[pinkymadigan 4818]

I don't even know what this model is in Oldhammer, let along Age of Sigmar. But I liked it (part of a big army deal with rats and elves, I play the rats) and wanted to paint something not Undead, not rats, and to help build my KoW collection (my opponents now use him as a Drakon Lord). My NMM gold always turns out a lot better than my NMM silver, so I decided my elves, when I eventually paint them, will have gold in their scheme.

Giant eagle? That sir is clearly a griffon!

Haha, yeah. Been trying to cut back on coffee. It's clearly not working. Editing now...

I actually forced him to the front of the queue for storage reasons. I was afraid of losing, bending or breaking one of his bits. I had clipped all my Isle of Blood guys off sprue and stored them in a tackle box, but this guy didn't fit, so he hung out on my shelf causing me mild panic which built up over time until I had to paint him.

Awesome!

 

I like the pattern on the bird.

I clicked for the amazing title....

I love that griffon!! And the NMM on the rider is great!

He looks great. I fell in love with this model when it came out and had to have it.  He's hanging out on my shelf, half painted...

I love the smoothness you achieved on the feathers. They are so good! Nice mini and beautifully painted!

Beauty!!

Stunning! This figure's got a lot of different detailed textures going on (feathers, scales, smooth fur body, cloth, metals etc) & you've pulled it all together beautifully.

Fantastic job on him!!

 

I've got one of these I picked up second hand for a couple of dollars 'cause his lance was broken (and missing). I haven't repaired it yet, 'cause then that means I'd have to paint it, and I'm not sure I can paint it as well as I want to...
