OK Fiends

Here are my two fiends for my Slaanesh Army.  I used Chaos Spawn models, and tried to make them as "spindly" as possible.  They are ok, but over the weekend I heard rumors of plastic fiends down the pipeline, so these will make do for now.  I painted them while I was painting my last set of Daemonettes.  These go much faster as I painted these 2 Fiends in about the same time as one Daemonette.

The one thing I hate about taking photographs of my miniatures is that every mold line you miss pops out at you.  You spend hours scraping away each mold line and even after you paint it, you still don't see it or you go "outside the lines" a bit while painting a small detail (like an eye).  Then you take a photo and POW it smacks you in the face.  So for now on, just ignore those tiny flaws.  You can't see it from 3 feet away, which is my Golden Rule for table top quality.

I can also blame the lighting as well.  The do not think I used a flash, but I might have had one of the lamps too close.  The light has washed away some highlighting.  I highlighted the grey skin with a few layers, and the blue isn't as chalky white as the photos show.




 
Enjoy!
