Dark Disciple

Sinister Adept
28 mm

You will not be punished for your anger; you will be punished by your anger.

 

The Sinister Adept was once a monk, like so may others.  But over time, he grew to see his brothers with contempt.  To him, their meditation, praying, and humble daily rituals became the servile activities of weak, inferior beings.  He scoured the monastic library for deeper knowledge... not how to control the self and achieve inner peace, but how to control others: the mantras of terror and subjugation.  However, his impious researches could not remain secret for long.  Discovered, he departed the temple with his favoured volumes, leaving carnage and destruction behind him.

 The Adept is a Ganesha Games "Psi Paladin" from Alternative Armies.

  1. Oh, I find this mini intgeresting. Moreover, the head, which should be considered dull, gives the character quite a personality. Lovely paintjob and particular mention to the purple lightsaber and OSL.

  2. Truly sinister!
    Really like the way you painted the head - it's hard to paint something pure black not making it "plain" same time. Well done, Sir! 😉

  3. Nice find! A very cool sculpt. The light saber and OSL is very well done. I quite like the white spot of ?light? on the helmet.

    1. I'm glad the head works for people. I wanted it to be featureless and mysterious, but not just a black blob. I put spot highlights on the front and the back so that you get the effect from either angle :)
