Hey inkwell, awesome paint job on a really nice mini, really like the tats, the base, the gold(shins) and the hair. Post more pics, I want to see the back as well.


Great stuff

That's a great idea! It is a rather versatile figure, isn't it? You've done a great job on the conversion, well done!

Very nice paintjob! Can't say anything about the conversion work as I don't know the original mini.

I think the beard you gave him is the very special touch! I'd really like to be able to sculpt such a perfect beard...

Yes, the beard is fantastic and matches the original hair's texture. The axe fits in perfectly too and I'd have thought both were part of the orignal sculpt. Along with the painting and base-work it all makes for an excellent figure  8)
