I suspect that this will be the last Finecast model I ever paint....God Willing!
It reminded me why I stopped buying Geedubya models. Finecast was truly the utter pits as a wargaming material. The models were so loaded with sprue attachments that you had to nearly sculpt them yourselves - except that the material was brittle and snapped if one looked at it in a funny way.
Great model though....just full of style and very steampunky.
Another point is how small these old models are compared to modern Warhammer. I have decided that this is a petite Lady Inquisitor as the model looks too small to be a Lord Inquisitor. Being petite will not, of course, stop her sticking a power sword up a heretics jacksy....
Dear John,
ReplyDeleteThat's why the 1873 Single action army was known as the equalizer.

DeleteGreat work John, the colours fit well with an Inquisitor
ReplyDeleteGW make good minis.
DeleteI wanted a menacing look, hence the purple, but also indicate an individual who had kicked around the galaxy a bit...a veteran.....hence the battered soft grey leather.
Deletebut, but...it's (now) 'finely crafted-resin'...surely that rebranding makes up for all of FAILcast's faults?
ReplyDeleteObviously....😀
DeleteHow well does the resin survive gaming, John? (I suspect that I already know the answer).
ReplyDeleteRegards, Chris.
I have had finecast models just disintegrate as they get old.
