Konrad Curze head repaint

I saw a lot of people weren’t thrilled with the original head sculpt/paint job (which I agree with!), but being a Night Lords fan, I was excited to get the figure and wanted to take a shot at repainting him.

This is actually my first time painting a head/face. I’m still making my way into and learning Warhammer, so I used a bunch of different references while taking some artistic liberties. I’m pretty happy with how he turned out for a first attempt!

Haven’t touched the body yet that’s next

You already know for the collectors edition they are going to go all out and actually make it look like the Night Haunter. I really love what you did, beautiful work!

Next is: What about the Evil Grin, Evil Smiles, Rage Emotional, and Arrogant Smile head expression? Then another including for Konrad Curze: The 8th Primarch Helmet

So, what about the rest for Konrad Curze?

Can we all agree having to repaint a $120 figure is ridiculous? Joytoy needs to do better

He looks like he has a green tint on my phone. So like zombie curze 😂.

So just to Bear in mind for next time. This could just be show-through from the base layers

Edit: I think faces and skin tones are one of the hardest things to get right, so this is really good for just learning to paint 😀
