The Hunchback

So now - onward to painting

The mount

Actually it started with the mount - had the idea of a hunchback henchman with some books and stuff on the back, and the "backpack" sort of took off on it's own - cool enough. Well back to the mount then. Using a skaven body I could get the hunchbacked position, but I also wanted a tormented head, so a hood came into mind. I started by making a armature of wire and plastic rod which I shaped slightly in the top. I glued in a couple of cables from Dragon Forge design, then added a blob of greystuff and smeared it down the sides of the "head". I added a couple of lences from a marine scout's night goggles and made split in the hood down the middle. The final touch was a couple of stitches in the back and a cable for a rebreather. The rebreather was dumped again though as I did not want to make the model to busy in the front.

The Shrine of Apocryphal Teachings

The shrine is almost finished, just need a bit of cables and what not - then I need to make some sort of mount for it.....

HI-TECH loo or a shrine?

Next oddity is coming right up - take one of The Shrine of Apocryphal Teachings. Correction will be made as I cannot see the scroll as anything else than toilet tissue - not good......

Sound advice

After some very sound advice, I decided to turn the mask a bit - making it face more outwards, so now people can actually see what it's supposed to be - thanks to Gitsplitta from Dakka.

A bit of hair then

Thanks for all you suggestions on various platforms. I had quite a few suggestions on doing a powder/judges wig, which is an extremely cool idea, I was going to have a go at. In the end I decided against it though as it would not really fit the theme of the mini - a seductress albeit a very deadly one. So I went with something more feminine but still badass - took a couple of tries but now I'm fairly happy with it.
I could also read of a few comments that someone though her to be undead - that she is not, the skull will be metal.

Do you like it with or without hair?

Finishing touched have been added, bit of re-positioning of parchments and some base work. I also tried my hand on adding some hair.....as I've said earlier sculpting will not be a force of mine anytime soon. But the hair can be reworked and redone over and over until I'm satisfied - but does the mini look better with hair or without? Help me out here please - atm I'm on the no-hair option.

Sweet Death - the twist

I really wanted this mini to be twisted and somewhat disturbing. So I got the idea of a very discomforting looking personae, hiding her true face and letting other parts of her catch the unlucky victims eyes while getting in close for the kill.
I'm thinking about sculpting some hair but I'm not sure.

Sweet Death - starting to look like something

Have started adding extras to the body and building weapons for the beauty.......pretty sure she'll be one nasty chick to piss off.

Sweet Death - body armour

Not wanting Sweet Death to look like a fantasy Jenna Jameson - and no I'm not in the we don't want gaming minis with huge racks crowd, who the hell don't enjoy a set of good sized funbags - I decided to try my hand on sculpting some body armour. As said not because of the nakedness, but all the snirkly winding bits doesn't really fit the finished mini.
