WIP: Dark Vengeance Chaos Lord - Trim & Metal (and pirates too)

Back to 40K!  It's time for the final HQ mini from the Dark Vengeance Box - the Chaos Lord.  What I love about this mini: the details! What I hate about this mini: the details -_-  Let's get to the pics...

WIP: Freebooter LE Xmas 2006 mini - The Finishing Touches

We have come to the final WIP of this mini! First up her eyes. I painted them black. It gives her a slightly disturbing appearance with her skin tone being a little bit off, but everything else looking so normal. After the jump: some make up tips courtesy of The Lady Inquisitor...

WIP: Freebooter LE Xmas 2006 Mini - Details, details.

This will be a lengthy one so grab a snack or call for help if you feel like you are getting weak ;) I used the colors above to base coat the leather (shoes and belt), gold and hair on her respectively...

WIP: Freebooter LE Xmas 2006 mini - Dress

With the skin tones finished and looking a bit pallid, I moved onto the dress. Another scary area with lots of smooth lines...

WIP: Freebooter LE Xmas 2006 Mini - Skin Tones

Here we go with my first "stretch my skills with something different" mini. I had the same question as you when I first got her: WTF? Where's her power armour?! I'll be doing the run down on this lady as I go so you can get a sense of my process...
