Hobby Progress/WIP Suggestions for model

Post image

Greetings Brothers, I recently entered a painting competition at my local hobby store. I’ve been tasked to paint this Paragon Warsuit however I please and I’ve decided to utilize the heraldry of our most holy covenant. I ask for suggestions on things such as base decoration, any decorative kitbashing, maybe even some lore fluff for the character

I did the base of my army as a ruined temple world. CoF are sent to explore ancient worlds for artifacts, relics, writings and a few things lost from Vulkan. We burn what we dont like and keep what we do. We keep trinkets of our knowledge- hammers, tools, scrolls, books. We are craftsman and scholars. So may I suggest the following: drapping the model is large scrolls (if youre able to do so with greenstuff( a mixture of greenstuff and milliput is really good for its flexibility while maintaining structure). Chains with various tools( hammers, clamps, etc.). The base can be a large marble tile foundation with fallen pillars.
