I was bit skeptical when Wyrd announced that their 10th anniversary miniature, Aionus, was going to be made in PVC plastic. As it turns out the model had all the issues that I expected: shallow detail (compared to other Wyrd offerings) and hard to clean mold lines. That said, he cleaned up well enough and I really like the sculpt. I like him enough that I will probably pickup the hard plastic version when he get a general release.
Inspired by something I saw on Facebook, in the A Wyrd Place group, I decided to try and make Aionus look like he was fading in and out of space and time. Here are the pics:

Viktoria of Ashes
Started on my Hired Swords crew that I picked up second hand. They were all glued to bases already, and off center to boot, so I had to be a little creative. The bases on Viks could be better, but I'm not going to sweat it too much - I only paid $15.00 for the crew (thanks to the Wyrd Trade group on Facebook) so if I have to deal with wonky bases it's fine by me.
I made my first attempt at wet blending on the back of Viktoria's jacket. Didn't turn out great, but it isn't horrible. Luckily I have four Ronin to practice on. All in all I am happy with the model, but I probably like the Mid-Nor Dwarf (from Confrontation) bit I used as a Neverborn trophy more than Viks herself.
Now on to the pics...
