Finished: Weather Shaman

 

The choice for today's model is actually a combination of a few factors: I wanted to clean some projects from my "I really want to paint this soonish" tray; I really like this miniature; I got really bored of using a Dustback Helamite to proxy for my Stormcaller and I believe this model will be a really good fit for that profile!

The Model

This beautiful sculpt is another one of Print Minis Erroish Tribe line. It printed without issues, even though my resin was not dialled in! It comprises of three parts: the mount, the saddle and the shaman herself. I highly recommend painting either everything separately or at least the mount and the saddle, with parts of the shaman as well, to make it easier to reach some of the elements.

The Scheme

I decided to basically mix the scheme for my Dustback Helamites and the Desert Sprinter. The only new colours here are Volupus Pink (Citadel) for the snout and interior of the mouth of the mount and Flesh Tearers Red (Citadel) for the hair of the shaman. The shaman herself was painted in the scheme chosen for my Ash Waste Nomads, with the addition of Guilliman Flesh (Citadel) for the skin.

Summary

I really, really love this model. It was a joy to paint, it printed without issue and I will proudly put the Weather Shaman on the table in the days to come!
