Wow, brilliant effects there on the head crest.

Which edition model is this? I've never seen one like it before (curse my ignorance!).

Very cool and impressive Zoanthrope, i Think its based on the latest edition of the Zoanthrope but im not sure Very good conversion too, i like the fact that it seem to e floating in a carapace chair rather then by itself, reminds me of the Norn-Queens on top of the Epic Dominatrix sort of.

Very nice effect on the head piece! I like the coloring that makes it look very 'fresh'. Great work!

I've got to say that that is looking sweet.
Its a great sculpt and the green/blue effects you've got going on on the head and tail etc are simply brilliant. The blending is superb.

Hey, if you had no need to use your muscles and could psycically will yourself to float around - your neck and limbs would look like that too
