It was a long and dark December
This model is a couple of firsts for me. It’s the first time I’ve converted/greenstuffed anything to this extent, and it’s the first time I’ve tried to paint fire. The sword was the main focus of conversion. The original is just silly. How it looks normally here.

Very, very nice, no…not very, EXTREMELY well done! That is amazing, it is much better than the original and you did a great job with the fire. Tim, Your awesome. Definably beats the Man O War’s I painted today!
Its good, not massively ambitous but done to perfection, I used to play Wathammer and as I’m sure you will have seen yourself some folk can do anything and do do everything with greenstuff but first time its ace, you got plans for any other cool conversion Mr Tim?
Nice, any chance of getting some “in progress” pics? As a former 40ker I like nothing more than seeing a model with green stuff pre-painting.
Awesome. I either love fire or hate it. Yours I love. It’s well sculpted and you’ve painted it correctly (i.e. brightest part of the flame at the bottom/centre). I hate it when people paint flames with the brightest part at the flame’s tip, it just looks odd. Yet I see it all the time.
I was thinking about getting started up on drawing comics, I thought for a while as a hobby, and was wondering what would be a good starter to do so, by which I mean what would be a good drawing tablet, computer, software and such…if you wouldn’t mind answering this Tim…
Very slick my friend, very slick. the only sugestion id make is try to blend the fire colors a little more. but otherwise very solid, and a job well done on your first conversion/ modification
The fire doesn’t look as good as I think you could have made it… but I definitely love the detail on the model as a whole.
That’s really pretty =)
As said earlier it is nice to see someone who paints flames the right way around!
I see it quite often with people’s warhammer models having the flames essentially the wrong way around, tis most strange.
Damn it Tim, it’s you who keeps reminding me that this amount of detail is even POSSIBLE…Amazing job, and the next time I paint one of my Vampire Counts, I’ll remember to take some time to notice the little things…The very, very little things.
woww…., the sword is just amazing. everytime i made my war hammer people before the paint would run :
yea Mr obvious the original sword is small its called sculpting…or making it look prettier lol but im too cray on this warmachine im more of a warhammer or D&D man my self but eh wat ever keeps you on your feet and productive
Really nice, I like the fire addition.
Is that a reference to Coldplay’s Violet Hill in the title?
I think the Avatar looks better with the fire. The ‘jack just looks plain without it. It’s nice.
The fire’s great too, and once you start your trolls you’re going to want to come back to that on the Pyre.
Sweet. I love the details!
