This is my slightly converted Farseer. As the armament of the model wasn’t 100% WYSIWYG in terms of codex options, I removed the Shuriken Pistol and added a pointing hand from the High Elf Bolt Thrower sprue. Now he has a really cool “guide” pose. Unfortunately all Farseers suffer from miscasting which becomes evident in the misaligned eyes. It has to be a problem with the master models, as the studio copies have the same issue (which is why they only show the helmet sideways most of the time). Painting was really fun and he was a good exercise to improve my blending skills.
Stahly
Stahly hails from Craftworld Germany and has been involved with Warhammer since childhood. He has painted several armies and countless warbands and Kill Teams over the decades, and founded Tale of Painters in 2011. When he's not painting miniatures incredibly slowly, he's testing the latest paints, tools and kits with German precision and a no non-sense attitude.
Fantastic work! I am glad that someone else noticed the eyes on that model. I have avoided buying from the moment I saw him in the codex.
The hand swap really pulls the pose together too. Keep up the good work!
Outstanding
Great just great. This is one of my favorite pieces in your army!!!! The blends came out great!
Spectacular as always. The pointing finger is a nice touch; I've always felt the shuriken pistol looks out of place on that model, but your version looks great!
Wow great job man, I really like the smooth light transitions on the cloak.
He's really, really beautiful. I especially like those tiny details like the gem on his left hip and how is is fixed within its setting. Great job!
