Abaddon good to go

Got this wrapped up yesterday and I am pretty happy with it.  Special thanks to the gifter that financed the purchase for my b-day.  I like how he looks, the only thing I was bummed on is that I couldn't get the face to where I wanted it.  Its a little too greyish and the eyes are odd.  I tried as hard as possible to match the GW website and I like how the armor turned out.  I used black paint as a base, then dark grey highlight, then a dark grey blend wash, followed by this black glaze that's pretty cool.  The effect isn't bad but I think it got dampened a bit by the Flat Finish.  Sometimes I wish I didn't have to spray em with the Flat but I know I will beat it up too much when playing.. I cant wait it get him on the table and have him flying out of the Beast.

  2. Thanks for the compliments. The base is a Microart one that I decided to make look Molten-ish.

    thanks
