Koto Archangel repaint by IID Designs

Mod: my apologies if this post is misplaced.

Hi everyone,
This is my recently finished Kotobukiya X-Force Archangel repaint and base swap.

The statue base was swapped out with the Sideshow Kitty & Wolverine base, which is a Sentinel boot. The shape of the boot was a pretty natural fit for the Koto Archangel. Some modifications were made to it to get things to all work together. Five wing blades were made and fit to the base as well.

No real changes were made to Archangel himself other than the new paint job and a few of his wingtips being fanned out.

Thanks for looking. Now on to the pics!

Fantastic work as usual, IID. Flaring the wing tips out is a beautiful touch. Nice clean lines on the paint app. Did you add some weathering to the wings?

Thanks gomur! I did do some weathering on the wings.
The idea was that an Archangel of the Apocalypse wouldn't be bright and shiny. It doesn't show up well in the picks due to their reflective nature, but I'm glad you noticed!

It's a beauty! I like the use of the sideshow base.
