Hello folks I finally finished my little diorama involving a Carnifex and a Piranha.

Details on the WIP can be found on my project log

Here are the pictures

I think overall it turned out well, though I think the painting of the piranha could have been better, but that can be fixed later on, I think the fex's carapace was done well but I think I could have done better highlighting on the skin but I was experimenting on the streaking technique so I couldn't really do my normal highlighting. The base I think looks too brown and I'm not trilled with it but this was my first time doing a scenic base but still the brownness of the overall scene gets to me. I had fun making this diorama not sure when I'll get a chance to make another this big but we'll see.

Comments and criticisms are welcome.

Thanks for the comment, hmmm I I don't know if I should field this fex if I ever play, both it's feet are slotted in pins attached to the base so I can put him on a standard base but the only problem is that he'll have that piranha still stuck on his tusks lol. Maybe if I really wanted to be able to remove the piranha I could, its kinda loose so I might just pin it as well and the fex will be a normal magnetized fex with switchable arms and carapace with a fire warrior about to get eaten
