Ghost Stealer

[CylonDorado]

Ok, I just did something simple when I made a new stealer for my broodlords retiune that may require some more work. I made it headless, and I put a genestealer skull in one of it's rending claws. I was going to paint it so it looks like it's tainted by nurgle, but I don't know what to do with the neck. What should I do to make it fit? Right now its unchanged so its like a flat surface at a slight angle where your supposed to put the head. What should I do to it? Paint it like its just warp matter? carve it in and make it bloody?

EDIT: Whoa, I just thought of this. If I wanted to make it a flaming skull, how would I do that? It might be hard because the skull is kind of under the claw. I just can't imagine anything that could be modeled to look like fire...

Hmm, maybe wire wool? I find it makes nifty looking flames/smoke.

There was an article on GW about modelling fire, including a spot on flaming skulls. Here's the link-- us.games-workshop.com/games/warhammer/painting/fire/paint.htm
