Converted Giant Slayer Dwarf

[Metalchaos]

Hey everyone, I hope you are having a good Friday. This week, I started painting a GW Dwarf unit from the 90's. This one is a Giant Slayer sculpted by Aly Morrison. It sits on a 25mm Stony base by Txarli Factory. As I have two of these models, I wanted it to be different from the other. So I removed one of his axes and added the runes to his ax handle.

 

Orange being the dominant color on these Slayers I opted for purple on the base. I thought dark purple would be a great color to represent a deep underground setting or a battlefield in the Chaos Wastes, where my heroes will eventually face the forces of Chaos. I only use Reaper MSP paint and will add a color list below.

Love that axe!

Thank you all for your comments, I'm glad you enjoyed it. They will all have pinstriped pants in different colors; yellow and green, red and beige and so on. Tattoos are the scariest part to paint. I paint them last after glazing the skin and I don't want to mess it up. I use a 3/0 brush to paint them.

What an amazing paintjob!

Yeah, the tattoo and pants are awesome...as is the nmm and the overall grimy look he has to him. Well-done.
