WIP picture of the heavily reposed Argel Tal I've been building and painting. The original model kit is produced and sold by Games Workshop / Forgeworld. I customized it with a Custodes Guardian Spear and a few random chaos bits and trinkets. The paintjob is held close to lore-accurate depictions following a "Horus Heresy Legions" card art (seen in another image within this post, which features a lot of saturated reds, with slightly orange leaning highlights and horns being black towards the tips with some fleshy mid tones in the blend toward those black ranges. The Eye lenses of the helmet, as well as the daemonic eyes on pauldron and thigh, are mainly greenwith a blend into yellow toward the center. The spear arm is painted in brown and beige hues, with fine vein details, stippled magenta details to create a sort of sore flesh and black, sharp-looking claws. The serrated sun sigill on the chest as well as the first steel nmm bits of the armor ar painted as such with greys and white as well as some color influences from the environment around the miniature, which is also indicated on thee basing of the plinth. It's photographed in front of neutral grey background and features a small sized low opacity version of the CryoCheese icon in the bottom left corner.

I had to postpone the update post of last weeks 17 hour painting of the two days I had inbetween SMC and SPIEL.
This is the state of Argel Tal, as I entered it into Golden Demon and won a notable pin with.
Which is amazing, given how unrefined it is! 🥰
