Viking Bust WIP: "The Raider" by Nocturna Models

Touched upon in the last post, On The Painting Table, here is a full WIP picture dump of "The Raider". From start to 95% finished.

First the box art







I thought any good viking would have a shield as well, so I built one from a wood stir stick and green stuff.








Next came the metal helemt



Then the face








Decided to add some darker shadows





After this step the eyes had a weird look to them so redid them and the eyelids. Then painted hair and cloth.






Finally with the shield attached and then the optional nose guard.






I want to fix some blending on the cloth and then I'll take some final pics in the light box.

On The Painting Table Sept, 2015

It's been a while, but I'm still here working on projects. I thought I'd show you everything that's going on currently. Just a few projects being worked on at the same time, haha.

First off there's still the Emperor's Children Chaos marine, plugging away at him.






Next is my large scale entry for CB 2016



Here's a close up of the leather saddle

My Fantasy Monster entry for CB 2016





He'll be riding a giant octopus, I may paint it like a blue-ringed octopus. Here's the box art:






Finally a viking bust from Nocturna Models. It didn't come with a shield but I wanted to paint one, so I built it myself.
