There's a strong Blanchitsu feeling with this world, already quite rich with untold lore, I hope you have fun with it! I'm sure I would, had I anything to offer...<br /><br />The sun king is a beast; The BA death mask is oddly human and along with a pose like that he seems awfully looks-conscious. No, the existence of the sigmarines doesn't spoil him a bit.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08683654516720470349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289736121428988411.post-53212925467394295512016-10-22T15:19:36.596+01:002016-10-22T15:19:36.596+01:00I was actually really looking forward to hearing m...I was actually really looking forward to hearing more about this project and I had begun to wonder what had happened -- but now it totally makes sense that the release of the Stormcast Eternals would have stolen your thunder for a while ;) That being said, I think the aspect that possibly sells your Sun King model as its own thing more than anything else is the pose: There's something either contemplative or subtly unhinged (or even both, possibly) about him that you wouldn't see in a Sigmarine, I believe.<br /><br />Beyond that, the setting you have chosen is brilliant, both for the chance of taking a closer look at one world and its rich cultural background, but also because it manages to channel so many cool influences: I feel reminded of the vity of Queen Mab from Abnetts "Pariah" (you really got the feeling that there were millennia of backstory there, and that the city would be a perfect setting for its own series of novels, really) and of my beloved Ghormenghast. <br /><br />As for the introduction of an Astartes, nothing quite seels a true scale Marine like putting him next to "normal" humans, if you ask me: It makes the Marine look more masive and monstrous while also making the humans even punier- That aesthetic juxtaposition alone is enough reason for his introduction ;)<br /><br />Anyway, this should be good. Carry on! ;)KrautScientisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992997405409517857noreply@blogger.com
