    Default Commisioned Butcher of Khardov

    I just finished this up for a friend at a comic book store I used to regularly go to. I'm hoping to build a cheap lightbox soon, so the pics aren't as good as I would like, but I was excited to stick him up on the forums. Hope you guys like him! C&C is always welcome.

    The waterfallish effect underneath his legs create the impression that he just got tired of holding it on the way to the little butcher's room. Beautiful paintjob though.

    Fantastic work. I would like to see some darker shadows on his face however. Mostly at the top of his eyebrows, cheeks, and ears (though that may be from the camera). Great work on picking out the teeth and tongue.

    I'm not normally a fan of splattered blood effects, but I like yours.

    An argument from the fluff: would not a waterfall be far too harmonious for the chaos that is the Butcher's sanity?

    Ha! I thought the exact same thing with the base when I was finished. Is it too quiet and peaceful for this angry man? But it was too late :P Glad you guys like him though!

    I've never see Butcher on such a tranquil, scenic base before ha ha Well done, the painting is exceptional.

    Gorgeous. I look to my own Butcher and despair. And I love the base. The waterfall is really nice. The contrast between Zoktavir and tranquil scenery is excellent. (Not to mention the color contrast which is also ace.)

    I live how you've done the face, the shading is just right Not too subtle and not too sharp.

    Loving the reds on the armour too. I have a skorne army that would love to meet your paintbrush

    I agree with the others regarding the paint quality.

    With the photos you should be able to alter the white balance to remove the yellow cast on the picture.

    Tweaked the white balance with the photos and they look much much better! Thanks! I may just have to invest in more day bulbs so the light is a bit brighter as well.
