Chariot of the Harvester.
Here is a picture of everything it comes with.
Chariot of the Harvester
I would have worked on this first but I currently don't have a spare chariot base, I need to buy some. But with how much this sword is frustrating me I may end up switching to another model for the time being.

The only think about that model your using as your vampire, is that it doesn't actually look very "vampirey" (yes it is a word.......I'm English............we invented the language....don't argue!).
If your having trouble with the sword, it sometimes does help to switch to another model, and then come back with a fresh perspective. Though I could simply be biased as I really want to see the harvester put together and painted.

Yeah, I agree with you DoN. I had some pretty elaborate plans for Holbein. I even bought another model just for a head swap. As soon as I get my chariot base I will get to work on the chariot of the harvester. ATM I took a break from modeling and I'm working on some test models for my vampire skin tone. So far the perfect skin tone is proving elusive. What recipes do you guys use for your vampire skin tones?

shouldn't that possibly be "vampiric"? defined as: "Having the traits of a vampire"

@: Very interesting point.
@Pureblood: The early christmas thing, is that kind of like daylight savings time? Either way I like the models. I am glad your changing the sword, it looks a little too bland and wouldn't seem menacing enough for my own blood. What will the new head look like? Will it be coverless to allow the individual to see the face?
I'm just glad to see another great start to an awesome VC army. Keep the pictures and paint job coming.

@Dictator: I bought a model just for the head. This is the model I got, I will be using the head on the left. My Vampire Lord won't be wearing a helm. I want to keep the helm somewhere on the model, I am considering having a zombie squire on the base carrying his helm, it will be modified to look like a blood knight helm.
Vampire Head
As for the sword, after two attempts I have completely given up trying to do a 100% sword sculpt. For the third attempt I decided to start with an existing sword for the base and work around it instead. Here is an early WIP of the sword just before I start on the Procreate and Kneadatite.
Sword WIP 1
A cookie for anyone who can guess which famous sword I am trying to emulate.

Damn Cookie Monster! I think some source lighting on the eye's of the sword would look the part.

Amen to the awesomeness of that sword. The hair on the vampire is very good. I'm glad you are changing the head. The new one really has a great quality to it too. Feels more evil unleashed. You are pretty lucky too that the hair is blowing in the same direction as the cape on the vampire.
I can't wait to see it all come together.

Yeah wind direction was one of the things I was worried about, I wanted the model to still look uniform while being dynamic. I may need to turn the head just a bit. I searched for hours at multiple sites to find the perfect vampire to butcher for a head, in the end I decided on this one. Though part of me still wants to do a sculpt conversion using one of the Cadian Sgt heads.
