another possible way is to have the grass trampled behind izamu depending on how etheral you wiew him to be. I havent looked at his m2e rules so i dont know if hes a stompy armour with a angry spirit inside or incorporeal ghost samurai if hes a stompy armour hed trample the vegetation behind him. And I also wondered if the backbanners are green and freehanded or covered in mildew. do you have a better picture of them if they are covered in freehand goodness?

mako have you considdered doing something with one of the clear cast crews? Ive yet to see someone use the translucency(?) to its full effect. Seeing as youre quite acomplished maybe you have some nifty ideas and or tips on how to go about it? Im aware of the fact that you dont "have" to paint them but that also seems like a waste of the potential. and as always: hows that hungering darkness comming along?

Have you had a look at the Oshiro site? pricey but comes in both painted and unpainted versions http://www.oshiromodelterrain.co.uk/index.html then theres lost village terrain http://www.lostvillageterrain.co.uk/ found a site the other day with some gorintos and spirit statues that would work for scatter terrain http://mastercrafted.co.uk/product-category/scenery/ and ofc the plastcraft terrain for kensei/ fukei I have 3 of their houses and theyre easy to build and looks ok, If I had the cash Id go for the Oshiro ones then theres the kickstarter with the fishing village and other asian terrain if youre in the us http://renaissanceminiatures.com/webstore/products/eastAsianOS/ Im sure Ive forgotten something

I use photobucket instead of wyrds album function still and that works fine

underdog6750: well the old avatar should fit the bill then? otherwise you can go have a look at the bushido and kensei range, theyre comming out with some more mytical creatures in the kensei range now. or possibly the jouney kickstarter when that turns up for real might have something for you?

Love the bases on ramos. Any idea how that effect was achived?

thanks for the reply The helmet came out great

how did you do the helmet btw? is it white blended to green and then painted the diamonds presenting it with a pattern or black with a grid on top with the lines from white to green?

well Viruk the gauntlet has been thrown down. Will you pick it up and paint Izamu Cruise - the last ghost samurai?

apart from the hungering darkness Id like to see you do the showgirls, iazamu and after that its a coinflip between ototo or raspy. While Raspy is one of the newer sculpts I prefer over the original Justice and her crew doest excite me at all so do her last. ^^

Hehe its a fitting name for him and my issues with the name poots gave him in combination with your vision of him isnt anything hats an issue for anyone but me. Stars are suns so hes just a warrior of the sun on a grand scale

The execution is top notch but I have a hard time with the warrior of the sun having a cosmos / night sky effect to him. But thats my problem. If hed been called Celestial Assasin I would have given you all praise

^^ oooh dear i say it? finally!

really like the patterning on collodi

I was pleasantly surprised with the shadows on the base, good idea and well executed
