This was a commission job. It's a chaos marine commander from the Iron Warriors Legion, a conversion based on the techmarine mini. A lot of the specifics of the mini, such as the components used, the design of the freehand and placement of the yellow stripes etc. was decided by the client.

I used artists' soft patels (like weathering pigments) to create a lot of the colour on the metals - I find they can give a nice texture and good colours for rust etc., plus they are fun to use for something different

I really love your creations. So much taste for colours and moods. As for this one I apprieciate using pigments in metallics. Perhaps one thing the mini lacks is a bit more of contrast, but overall it's great!

The phrase actually belongs to the Iron Warriors, but that's off topic. Sebastian, this is amazing, man. this is a great conversion of a miniature that isn't seen very often. i love all the tarnishing, and everything seems to just work. the only thing i don't like here is the banner pole. the whole warning sign seems to be a bit out of place here, it seemed to fit better with your GD Ork (in my opinion). Other than that, i'm glad to see people doing stuff that doesn't get done much (like the Iron Warriors) and it's good to see that people are still using metallic paints. congratulations.

Micha: Check your fluff, he has it right. The Iron Hands battlecry is "The flesh is weak". Love the street sign icon, even if the dish is OTT!

Fnatastic work, really, i love the use of the loyal techmarien, I have not seen it done this way before; the additions you made fit very well, I like the talon. The blue stuff on the base looks great too, some toxic/radioactive waste i assume; one question I have though: does the saying 'iron within, iron without' not belong to the loyal iron HANDS ?
