kapturowski Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hello everybody! While I'm awaiting the funds to place an order for the Forge World Death Guard I decided to build some stuff from my bitzbox. First up is my Daemon Prince. I envisioned him bursting out of his Terminator Armour. He's not quite finished but I'm getting there. I would appreciate any input on things to add or change. (The cleaver looks a bit off, but that's cause i haven't glued it on yet, it will be straight) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Daemon_prince_front.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Daemon_prince_left.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Daemon_prince_right.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Daemon_prince_back.jpg He will also get wings, I've built the structure for them and will add feathers. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Daemon_prince_wings_structure.jpg And here's my Plague Champion http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Death_guard_champion.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173655-scratchbuilt-nurgle-daemon-prince-and-plague-champion/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtNACHO Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 You Traitors! I'll kill you! Of course then I'll steal your awesome minis! :tu: Great job dude, I think the right arm could be bulked out some, especially if he was wearing TDA beforehand!

Araziel Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 These are fantastic :) My only concern though, is the right arm. I agree that it is missing something.. maybe you could buff it out a little? It just seems abit too slender atm.

kapturowski Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 Thank you everybody! It seems I've grown a bit blind to my own work. I'm going to bulk out the arm a bit, perhaps also put a vambrace resembling the one on theterminator armour on him. @Xavier Targhost: Thats correct sir! I had an old one lying around collecting dust.

Chaos_Minds Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 The marine looks bigger. True-scale? Edit: Absolutely stunning models.

Sersi Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Incredible! Not only have you come up with an original nurgle concept. The excution of it is simply incredible. I really like that they are lankier rather than bloated "Michellin Men". Very nice work. I can't wait to see more.

Rahveel Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I really like the more slender arm, makes it look wasted, and... well, Nurgly!! Amazing work, truly. Who needs forgeworld orders when they have skills like that? Any chance for a closeup shot of his innards??

DuskRaider Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Amazing Daemon Prince! I really love the detail and the pose. Same with the Plague Champion, the tentacle arm is ace and I love how you went so far as to give him Blight Grenades to boot. Amazing job.

kapturowski Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 Thank you once again for the positive feedback everybody! I have fleshed out the arm a bit and I think it should look more in proportion now. What do you guys think? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Daemon_prince_front_new_arm_1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Daemon_prince_front_new_arm_2.jpg Very nice conversions. And Im geussing the deamon prince was once a terminator? That's absolutely right. I really like the more slender arm, makes it look wasted, and... well, Nurgly!! Amazing work, truly. Who needs forgeworld orders when they have skills like that? Any chance for a closeup shot of his innards?? Thank you! I also like the slim arm, but it is a bit too slim compared to the rest of the body, I think I'll try to make the next model a bit more slender overall. Here's a close up. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/kapturowski/Death%20Guard/Daemon_prince_guts.jpg The marine looks bigger. True-scale? Yeah, I wanted to try my hands at a biggerized marine. It was fun and I'm really in awe of those with enough patience to do this for an entire army. Hehe biggrin.gif nice smile.gif and by the way awsome Wolfs there mate realy like the wolfpriest and your big bad a*s wolf lord..... drool.gif that is one id ilve to have to be honest... and your skills in converting is realy nice there too mate smile.gif gona give it a try to make a chaos lord for my void reavers with the insperation from him i think... if you dont mind.... unsure.gif hehe... Cheers and salute mate smile.gif Thank you very much! I don't mind that at all, quite the contrary. These boards have inspired me so much and I'm only glad if I can in some way repay that. Cheers!

Rahveel Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 The guts look awesome, and I thought those were skeletal horse ribcages in there. The arm does look better bulked out, I liked it thin, but it fits the model better now.

DuskRaider Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Truthfully, I don't expect a Daemon Prince to be completely proportional, they're the essence of Chaos and thus are supposed to be a confounding creature that is antithesis to possible or natural. Great work nonetheless, I love how the arm is still quite apish.
