The Arkvenger

posted by roman, jarhead, kong

Many thanks to Farbrizio for me giving me some final photos of Pegaso's Arkvenger that I have painted earlier this year. It was done for a private collector (my loved RwW, btw it was my pleasure to meet you in person finally) and I gave the figure to Fabrizio on this years Duke of Bavaria in a pretty hectic - so there wasn't time for photos. Grazie Mille, Fabrizio!!

I am still planning to finally write up some kind of Step by Step of the path I went during the idea process, working and painting on this model. It might take some time but Winter is coming and so Christmas is near :) - Hope you likemy interpretation of this sculpt!

Now I am back on track but always with music.
KRS-One always was one of my favourite MCs ever and he realesed a new track lately. 
I would say already the first words say it all:

"You know, you don't see with your eyes, you see with your brain, and the more words your brain has the more things you can see!!" 

Just like that!

    Great that you give him a "face" cause I didn´t like his usual helmet. Great work.

    The Arkvenger is finished - finally. I know that this mini was a nemesis to you, bit you finally managed it.

    And I think the reward is thats one of your best paintjobs in my opinion. The atmosphere, the helmet, the base - simply GREAT!

    Very well done Roman. I like the style you gave to this miniature. Awesome the base... you must to explain how the hell you did it!

    But, for my personal taste, the base is too big. I think that would be better a little bit reduce... but that's just my personal taste!!

    Great work my friend!

    Many thanks for your time you took to respond.

    Glad you like him - he really was sometimes a pain in the ass :D

    Yes the base is too big, I feel the same now, but in the early beginning it was even bigger - I'll explain soon in the article.

    here you can see the base build up:

    Amazing job! I love the skin's colors... and that base is nothing short of epic.
