THAT'S RIGHT, PLAYAHS!!!
It's a Warboss Taetorial on how to paint a creepy vampire lord for Warhammer Fantasy Battles. The great thing about the Vlad Von Carstein model is that it's such a dynamic, beautiful model (in metal, not Finecast), that you can use it to represent any Vampire Lord you want, or even use him to convert up a groovy looking Mephiston (right, letopizdetz? =D)
Sorry for all the ranting I did in my last video. I'm just bitter that I keep getting fails in my finecast models. But, I've decided to grit my teeth and do the best I can with my model. At least, until I notice the hand guard that melted into the sword. If I saw THAT when I bought it, I would've sealed the thing back up, taken it back to the store and said, "Finecast can suckle my knuckles. Good day, sir", then tip my imaginary fedora and walk out the door.
Seriously, some things can be painted over, some things can be green stuffed, and some things you just have to say, "Nope. That is a deal breaker" and buy some Warmachine. =D
Anyway, if you have a Vlad Von Carstein model and you were lucky enough to get him in metal, make a video response and show him off! I'd love to see some alternative paint schemes, and hear your tips on how you painted yours!
