The Evil Cleric



One of my teasers from last post was wrapped up last night and photographed this evening. This model is Reaper's Evil Cleric Bledsoe.


Some of you may remember a few models I have painted for the Mechanicon Charity Auction. There's the Vulkan He'staan I did for the 2009 auction winner, and the Ulfhedner for the 2010 auction winner.


The annual Mechanicon auction is in honor of Chris Bledsoe, a dear friend of the organizers who passed away. The money from the auction goes to The Luekemia and Lymphoma Society. The 2010 auction winner again bid high enough to win my services for the 2011 auction. That's right, Kevin Bledsoe - the father of Chris Bledsoe - wanted me to paint up another model. I was honored when Kevin sent me this model, sculpted by the renowned Tim Prow, and based partly on Chris, partly on a character Chris used to roleplay.

This model will be heading off to Kevin in the next few days. And if you happen to be going to Mechanicon 2012 (in November), make sure you get involved in the great Charity Auction for a great cause.

Cheers
Dave

  1. I recognize that cape now! Fig looks great, love the trim, and your leathers especially. Nice sculpt too, with only some minor conversions you could go from evil cleric to woodsy druid, and check out that mondo 'stache, he makes all the other figs feel inferior.

  3. Wow, you really captured him Dave, great work!

    This year, being the tenth anniversary of Chris' passing, I'm going to try and do up an even bigger event in August as close to his passing date as i can, stay tuned for more info on that.
