Kuthulun 120mm RP Models

[Predasteve]

Hi All,

I have recently completed Kuthulun from RP Models. It is the 120mm kit and is absolutely full of amazing detail. Came in lots of pieces so was a long one to build and paint. As this was so detailed I wanted a good base to go with it. I used the round rocky base supplied with the kit and built around it with rocks body filler etc. I fancied a challenge so decided to go for a frost effect. So my first go at making ice. Clear resin poured on cling film then removed once dry and broken into pieces. Then scuffed up with sand paper. Placed back in its place and clear resin poured around it to make it look like it is slowly thawing. Snow effect powder / pigments and icy sparkles to give it a better finish. I'm happy with the end result. Painted with Vallejo & Dark star paints.

Comments Welcome

Cheers
Steve

You've made a great job of this Steve. I'm on with her at the moment. May I ask what painting references you sourced - online info seems quite thin on the ground in terms of what she wore etc.

Thank you all for your positive comments.

I searched google for mongol female warrior pictures. I didnt really follow any image, just a combination of different pictures and some of my own artistic license.

Thanks Steve,

Its certainly a committing undertaking but can't put it down. May well be the best commercial kit I've ever purchased.
