Model Showcase: Garviel Loken

Posted on by

This week sees the introduction of our new series: Model Showcase.

We plan to use these particular posts to show off cool models, rather than simply painting guides. We’ve already seem something like this in Stuart Barker’s excellent Khårn post, and we do hope to bring you plenty of guest posts in the future.

For this week though, I’m sharing Garviel Loken, last Captain of the Lunar Wolves, that I painted last year. At the time I set myself a little bit of a challenge to see if I could paint the green of the Sons of Horus, and I’m pretty happy with the results (There’s a little guide to how I painted him further on):
