The Les Edwards Space Marine is an iconic cover painting for White Dwarf 137...and I was thankfully gifted this fan sculpt for my birthday.
It's was a joy to paint, and I've heard news that the Scavvies are being sculpted as well. So keep a lookout.
I went with the original scheme and tried to get it as close as possible.
Get the posing just right....there ya go airborne!
Take that Scavvy scum!
Nailed it!
What a great gift, from a truly iconic piece of work, you've really done it justice
ReplyDeleteReally appreciate that Dave.
DeleteYep This model is so cool, I'm jealous :) Iconic White Dwarf cover.. and cool article Inside the WD as well. Andy Chambers skaven army :)
ReplyDeleteYa such a good issue! I'm jealous of you French guys...I never got one of the Chaos Dwarf sculpts. HAHAHA
DeleteBrilliant!
ReplyDeleteThanks man!
DeleteVery nice painting, so close to the cover !
ReplyDeleteI did my best....JB over at Lead Plague is working on his now, and it's gonna blow mine out of the water.
DeleteOhhhh! That's so f&%$ing awesome! I mean, the sculpt really gets the spirit of the illustration, but your paintjob brings it to life!
ReplyDeleteReally appreciate that Suber ☺️
DeleteNice work on a great piece.
ReplyDeleteOne of my all time fav WD covers (And possibly the only time I actually liked a Blood Angel image.)!
ReplyDeleteGreat paint job and a lovely sculpt and damn, what I'd do for those scavvie figs were they to be released...
Keep a look out, I think he will do a small run of them. But i havent heard anything definite.
DeleteOh man, that's superb. What a flashback to the past, such an excellent sculpt and paintjob.
