Altar and priest


Finally time for the side by side and complete images!


Getting everything in the correct place on this was very difficult, and of course the instructions are minimal or non-existent. :-)


That leaves a series of best guesses... but at least he fits in there!


I have some powders that I will be putting in a few areas as accents.


Those will be in a few isolated areas... not really for weathering, but enhancing shadow areas.


I want to infuse a few complimentary colors in those darker sections.


The powders can also get into some deep crevices that brushes just can't reach.


Then a final spray and complete!!!

  1. Absolutely stunning piece. I can't even begin to calculate the frustration of painting this. It's layers upon layers upon layers of detail. I do really like how it overtakes and extends past the base, it's a really cool piece.

    1. Thanks! Definitely a logistical nightmare. :-) Lots of painting pieces separately and then hoping they attach where they are supposed to!

  2. So much detail! A great model and a great paint job.

    Did you have much trouble with the tendrils being resin?

    1. I hit them with the hair dryer to make them pliable, but that meant making my hands very toasty as well!
