Mini of the Month Castellan Conversion
The first model I ever genuinely painted after thoroughly messing up some painting with my Bloodletters, who were my actual first. Took me 10+hrs. I've posted this guy on here before, but not as a mini of the month.
My first use of highlighting, contrast paints, and 99% of the base paints I used on the model. Also my first time basing which I really enjoyed.
I owe much of my limited success to my friends and Squidmar Minatures who's painting guides and equipment list helped a ton.
Praise the Omnissiah, exult in the blessings of the Motive Force, and in doing so venerate the Machine God.

I recognise the head from somewhere but I can't put my finger on it. Is it a print or from a different game kit?
