making the same old model into finecast is not really good enough for abbadon though is it?

Abaddon the armless has arms!

Great work on the paint job. Makes him look every bit like the Chaos Warmaster he is (sorry if I got that wrong). It must have taken you a while to get it to look right especially with all the small details.

whilst I think the paint job and assembly is great, the model itself is so out of date now that it is beyond ridiculous. A character as cool as Abaddon demands a new model with the next chaos codex!

I did discuss the possibility of using parts from this model - such as the head, trophy racks and arms - on a plastic Chaos Lord model to give it more heft and scale, but we decided in the end to stick with the original.

There are some aspects of the design that leave a little to be desired (the alignment of the head and shoulders, for example), and he does lack a certain imposing-ness next to more recent terminator sculpts. However, the model has aged surprisingly well. Much better than, say, the Verminlord, which wasn't replaced with the new Skaven releases. So whilst it would be great to see Abaddon get a facelift for the new Chaos codex (rumours say it'll be out in 3-4 months!), I wouldn't hold my breath.
