I’ve been wanting to paint a Big Boris from Heresy for ages, but I tend to only buy and paint what I need.
However, the Fallen Boris was simply too cool to not pick up, so I did (pick it up).
This was a case of “paint and discover” where my idea of how he should look evolved while painting. Initially I had him pictured as a classic red skinned devil type with brass or golden armour.
However, when I painted the fur on his shoulders, it had a nice light cool look to it and slowly the overall feel of him cooled down.
His cape became a dark blue cape, his armour metal with a blue tint to it and finally his skin became albino inspired by the Legion of Everblight line style of paint which was also the inspiration for my Balor miniatures.
I
am super happy with the outcome. Below are some photos taken with my mobile as my camera is still packed away.
Update: Photos with my camera.
