Absolutely amazing work. The object source lighting looks incredibly good and those custom wings just makes her look so much more angelic than the original model. I also love the idea of having a diorama from which you can remove the models for use in tabletop. Really inspires me to do something similar!
The og celestine is one of my favourites, absolutely changed the army when she came out. I remember wiping them with my tau in about 30mins pre celestine. Played the same guy, same lists plus celestine and I got stomped
This is beautiful! Really well done. The "Sisters of Battle"-Series is my favorite and I'm kinda sad that it's looking like its gonna end soon. But I'm really excited for your next big personal project, Jen! Also, I just started to plan out my first diorama for a Terrorgheist and I got some inspiration for it out of this build.
The way the Yndrasta wings look to be moving, it's almost as though the wingbeat of them sent out the wave of Holy flame that burned those poxwalkers. Awesome job Jen!
Love the work on this. It would have been nice to see a little more of the flames at the bottom though, it looked really interesting but you cut it short and we didn't get a clear look at the end result of them
The journey that Jen's skills have taken from her joining the channel to now is incredible. Keep up the amazing work! I'm super jelly of these results.
I was kind of expecting you to lean into the Loyalist Greater Daemon vibe of Celestine, and give her MASSIVE wings covering a small force of Sisters and Guard. Sort of like 'Fear not, brothers and sisters. The Emperor protects His Faithful.'
Ok you guys have been at this for a while now - your end result is awesome but we CANT SEE ITS PROGRESS please keep your hands from blocking the camera so much Also focus focus focus
This "fixed" model is propaganda, the Imperium wants you to believe Celestine looks like this, a literal angel. The official model is what Celestine actually looks like
Do you all display your pieces at the studio at all.....I imagine your workshop having a visitor section that's kinda like a museum of these incredible minis and a whole world of the most beautiful creatures on these tables all set up .....or like this one room FULL, wall to wall of shelves displaying this wonder wall of all your Pokéballs.....idk lol I think that'd be so awesome to visit....maybe even a thing where people can come do an easy little mini project with someone from the crew! Man that'd be so cool lol anyway I'm Ramblin now lol have a great day.
I know I'm being "that guy", but, for the sake of information, Celestine's hair has always been black. The white hair is worn in honor of when another important character met the Emperor, causing her hair to turn white.
I have only been painting for a few years, but cannot get enough of OSL. It helps to think of it as push and pull, if I overdo it, I glaze with the base color to pull it back
Not gonna lie, I really wish the actual Celestine model came with those wings. The more organic look feels far more in line with the description of a being effectively of the warp. Essentially an immortal daemon of the imperium. Base version seems a tad too mechanical to deliver on that concept.
Fantastic! I've never done a big diorama but this makes me want to try one. Although whenever I want to convert a model I always feel like I need two of them so that I can do one in the traditional way, as the god emperor intended.
Wouldn't trade the old one, you know, cause gotta keep it for memorial reasons, considering how Jen improved the models, with paint and all. Something I found pretty good.
Best Celestine Ive ever seen. With these wings you nailed exactly what I had in mind when I first saw the box art. Also kudos on the nmm gold. I was sceptical, but your paintjob convinced me!
On the Gemini, could have gone Cruella DeVil and given them mirrored half black half white hair. That would reference the "one white, one black" while also making them individual, but still tied together to each other
definitely prefer these wings and even though I like the Celestine model, she's one of ever increasing big GW that are standing on something very thin. The osl is excellent, not only comes out nicely but makes your eyes go there quickly.
The OSL and NMN worked great. And props for keeping your drill errors in the video, well done for trying something new and showing not everyone gets it right first time 👍
A wonderfully painted central figure with great subject matter as the sisters are my second favourite after of course the 40k Primaris Astartes only they are everywhere across the galaxy!
What?? This is fantastic! The inspiration piece is absolutely gorgeous, maybe one of my favorite 40k pieces, and definitely my favorite sisters art. It was executed perfectly, and so much goodness was added. The OSL and NMM are to die for. Seriously, my aspirations as a painter are redefined. And to cap it all off, gotta love a sneaky little plug for idols of torment.
fantastic work! .. Now I just need to come up with a colour scheme for my own sisters.. but it has to fit for snow bases, as that's the one thing that I know i want to do with them
