Bought this guy today and I have to say, it's an excellent model!

After cleaning him up a bit and building him I started work on the painting. So far only done the face and hair and started work on the chestplate. I've also basecoated the cloak but that's got a long way to go yet (shades etc.).

Here's how he's looking so far (the base is a Resin cast scenic Dockside base made by www.kerrandking.co.uk)

Cheers!

Nice character.

It's a new one for warhammer, right ?

What represent the base ? A pontoon ?

Yeah he's the new Slaanesh Prince for Warriors of Chaos.

That figure looks pretty solid! Wouldn't want to cross him on a jetti!

Nice start, the cloak is looking great and the armour too

Thanks Jack, not made any progress with him yet as I've been pretty busy, but I'll get round to it soon I hope.

Although I can admire Non LOTR ministures, have to admit I am not a big fan, however, I think you are doing a great job on him Jake, the armour looks fantastic, not sure about his 70's style shoulder pads

I will watch the cloak with interest, as I see it is undercoated White...is its end colour White ? If so, I would have done this undercoat either Blue or Brown then highlighted up to White (White being a nightmare colour to paint).

Overall, he is looking good mate...look forward to seeing him finished :yay:

This is a Slaanesh prince?! Really?! Doesn't seem to have any GW Chaos feel to it...

Nice work so far, keep it up!

Lookin good Jake...question, how big is he? Would he be able to be used for conversion purposes...basically, if I wanted his head would it be too large for a LotR metal model like a Citadel Guard or Fountain Guard or some such?
Thanks!

Thanks for all the kind comments!

@Brian - I was going to go for a white/pink ish cloak to show he's 'Slaaneshi' but after having trouble with painting it (I've always hated whites) I've decided to do the cloak in a red scheme. I have progressed with it however I've yet to take pictures but I'm sure I'll get round to doing that this weekend sometime.

@Miguel - You're definitely right there, it's nothing like the usual Slaanesh stuff, but I do like the sculpt.

@Dave - It's a pretty big model for a single miniature, this in mind I don't think the head would be very suitable for LOTR miniatures. It'd probably look quite strange and out of proportion. Though it's a good idea.

He looks a bit camp. Is he a glam rocker?
Why does Gary Glitter spring to mind?

@Natarn. He is a prince of Slaneesh after all. Slaneesh being the haemafrodite god of pleasure. So he's allowed to be a little camp lol.

Look forward to seeing him complete!
