Looks great. Did you use liquid green stuff as a smoothening finish? I'm thinking of doing the same with my squig, hence I'm asking.
. But u need to water it down a bit.

You have some really creative ideas, the skelly carrying the book is insanely well done, nice work
Be patient pleas. I'll try to finish him this week.
Today I've got a Necron Overlord Conversion that I made.
I hope you like him

Enjoy!
I have just turned green. Not only is your sculpting and converting amazing, but the painting is nothing to sneer at either. I think the Necron Overlord conversion is my favorite, the cloak is stunning.
Purple, red, green, and gold. Not a combination one normally sees, but it looks classy on Manfred. The NMM turned out great on him, too. Any plans to do any of the other von Carsteins? I think Vlad and Isabella in particular would look beautiful done in your style.

That coven throne is gorgeous. I love the bale fire and the contrast with the red tapestries. When do you want me to bow down and worship your skills?

/That's/ what I'm talking about! Screw those lazy-ass looking chicks drifting around on their throne. Make that thing a bloody trophy altar tearing ass across the battlefield. Awesome looking model, seriously.
some very need stuff here, I'm with the others (which means I'm as well impressed as a tiny bit jealous). Your conversions are very nicely done and once my order of hell-of-a-lot GS arrives I'll start practicing sculpting. There are some projects already on my desk. In case you're interested just for the converting part you might want to try some treekin or a treeman for Wood Elves made from the citadel wood set - it looks really nice.
I'm getting carried away here. My only little point of criticism would be the quite odd choice of colours for manny and isabella, but I guess that's personal preference and as much as I'm not for greens combined with reds and purple I have to ask you how you do your greens to look this vibrant. I'm asking especially for the swords of the vampires. I'm familiar with NMM but getting these things colored other than working with glazes on a black/white base has been hard for me in the past. I mean it looks alright but it obviously never gets this bright.
My other question is: what is your TMM recipe? As I said NMM is not the problem, I just need more practice, but getting a similarly "pro" looking effect using metallic colours is in fact a lot harder, at least from my experience.
Cheers and keep up the good work,
Dogmar

Hey Dogmar.
For the metallics I mostly paint the surface black, apply the base metallic color, then I wash them with badab black followed by one of three (asurman blue, devlan mud or baal red) after that I high light the parts with bright metallics. When it comes to gold I use silver for the final highlight.
As for the sword I think I will need to make a tutorial. Too many people ask me about it
Cheers thanks for the reply and I would like to invite you to check out my blog.
