Vampire Counts Mortis Engine

[Dragline]

This is a commission build for a local Warhammer Fantasy Battle client. I'm not versed in its workings or power within the game but it sure is a neat model. Mostly Citadel and Vallejo acrylics used. I used the airbrush for the green mystic mist fade and pigments and washes for the rust and weathering effects. It was challenging to meet the customers expectations but judging by their reaction when I initially unveiled it at game night they were pleased. Warhammer gamers are a picky bunch since the bar is set pretty high by the internet and levels achieved by some of the absolute artists that paint and compete in this hobby. My journey to push my personal skills continues as I try new techniques and products with every build.

Super nice.

[Dragline]

Thank you both I appreciate it.

Wow! That's pretty freaky! You did a great job on it! Lots of details!

[Dragline]

Thanks man. Warhammer is never short on details. These kits are expensive but you get a lot for the money. Not only that, they are playable in mighty battles that last hours if not days at times.

There will be more forthcoming 40K builds. I have personal stuff as well as commissions, and as word has spread I find the workload almost overwhelming. One thing is for sure though, Warhammer players have no seeming shortage of money to get the pieces they want for their armies. It's been lucrative.

My hat is tipped to you Bob. Amazing paint and weathering work.
