Description Some pics of work in progress. (Finished model here: fav.me/d96qkid
This is my most ambitious project(and the longest too) I've been working on an off on it, but I'm determined to make it my best work ever.

It started out with the grey colourscheme you find on its box but it bored me. I already had red and purple in my daemon army(Khorne and Slaanesh), and since red and blue makes purple, I settled for blue.
But, blue and grey horns still felt boring, so I thought of this daemonic heat inside of him, so the horns jutting out of the skin are redhot. Which makes a nice contrast with the blue.
Also tried to make the sword look like it's white hot metal.

- Need to add more layers of highlights on the muscles.

I like your choices with colours! I'm also working on this model, I just need to decide the colour scheme for good!

This made me wanna watch your space, I hope that's ok!

Thanks very much!

Of course you can watch me, thank you
I'm a bit busy with at the moment so I'm not painting much Warhammer, but take a look at my gallery, I've got a lot of photos of my Warhammer figures.
I will surely post updates once I get painting again

Well, I'll be looking forward to that.

I already took a look on your miniatures, it seems we share quite the same armies of choice. I've been also busy with other duties myself, but hopefully I'll get back in action with my brushes too.

BR,

You're into badass dark things as well, I see I like your idea of evil Wood Elves.

Good luck to you with Be'lakor, I know how difficult it is to think of a colourscheme for him, I've painted him 3 times over before I got this look.

Thank you. Had a lot of work on it, still not sure if it looks quite like white hot metal as it's supposed to...

It kinda looks like he's beating his enemies with the sun.

Hmm, hadn't looked at it that way yet. Now THAT's solar power.

This was always my favorite Daemon Prince model.

It still is my favourite. Such a pity it doesn't scale up to the new Daemon Prince models though. He's so small
