BrianBlessed Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Loving the dread. That metal chaos dread is a crappy model, but you've got it looking great, did you use plastic parts for the legs/arms? EDIT - I scrolled back a few pages and found the answer to my question. Like the look of the shield as a tabbard/groin armour thingy. Not that a dread has a groin to protect, unless its a slannesh dread maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Very nice looking Obliterator, didn't think you'd start painting it this soon though :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 Thanks for the comments guys ;) . @Lord Donute Hehe, yeah, that's called 'uge progress. :P I have reached my peak, so expect degeneration soon :D . @BrianBlessed Slaaneshi or not, I added shield to add bulkiness to legs, kinda like those loyalist dreads with banner-tabards I've seen here on B&C. @TAS You should know already that I have very little patience towards painting stuff :) . IH tutorial ready, so I got some spare time for obliterator :P . Where does he go to get his nails done like that? :P Expect another update tonight ;) .

The Angelus Sanctus Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Nice work on re-creating the hand :tu: Oddly enough, i'm slowly putting together a WB mini. Whether it gets painted anytime soon is anyones guess :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 Thanks TAS, you may think that's odd, but I say it's self-evident :woot: . Aaaaand done! Tomorrowish I'll post full army photo, and note that I won't be starting new WB project anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Looking good :D Although for an obliterator, he seems rather weaponless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Looking great dude! :D Although for an obliterator, he seems rather weaponless? Well they do morph their weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 That's what i was thinking as well Megalodon. Actually if Kik's intention was to model the Oblit in a non-morphed situation, i think he's stumbled upon a great idea. One of the things that bugged me slightly with the Oblit models was the fact they look rather cluttered when they have all their weapons 'morphed out', which in a way i see is impractical as they (in theory) would morph for whatever weapon suited the situation at the time.

kikkala Posted November 3, 2008 Author Share Posted November 3, 2008 ...Megalodon and TAS are going to hit me after this.. You may think that it was my intetion all along to do oblit in his weaponless state, while my real intetion was that I had so much trouble with 1st oblit attaching the guns and blades to its arms, so I just decided not to attach them to this oblit... But hey, Laziness is mother of all invetions :) . The current host of Daemon Apostle <insert name> Here ends current chapter in Kikkala's Word Bearers. More will come.... next year or before! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Lazy!! :tu: You could have attached a few of the weapons ;) Nonetheless, it's still a good mini, although i highly recommend you work on your cover story for future discussions ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 The army shot isn't that bad. Looks like the force is comming along nicely! ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 Thanks Megalodon and TAS :blink:. Instead revealing my trueself during discussion, I used my tiny braincapacity to make these: Practical alternative. while my real intetion was that I had so much trouble with 1st oblit attaching the guns and blades to its arms, so I just decided not to attach them to this oblit I hate glueing them back on before matches, when they break off while transporting.... Modelling PoV alternative. while my real intetion was that I had so much trouble with 1st oblit attaching the guns and blades to its arms, so I just decided not to attach them to this oblit It gave me opportunity to try sculpting twisted flesh, so giving more skills with GS... Fluffy. while my real intetion was that I had so much trouble with 1st oblit attaching the guns and blades to its arms, so I just decided not to attach them to this oblit 'cus Lorgar said so... :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 ;) Nice work on the cover stories :lol: looks like you've covered every angle! :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha PTP Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Nice army. Post some better pictures before you take a break from your Word Bearers. :cuss I took a break from my All Hallows Guard and never went back to them... yet. *Twilight Zone music.* It is an army to be proud of, kikkala!

kikkala Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Glad you like them TAS :). Taking a good army pic is pretty much impossible for me. I needed to build a tower from spray cans and stuff to have a good angle and stable base for camera :lol: . I could take "individual pics" from each one, for example, Dreadnought paired with Daemon Prince, Sorcerors, termies, etc, if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 Enough with the Iron Hands! Time for some Word Bearers! B) *Krhm* So again with the Word Bearers :D. While I was shopping for some scouts, I bought terminator box also, to keep me busy during x-mas vacation. I decided to give them more strature with plasticard. And I thought adding bunch of candles to top of the armor, making them walking altars of war, or something along the line :D. The pic doesn't really show how tall termie is so, here's comparison pic with unconverted marine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asmodeus' Swordhand Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Plasticard at waist, shins and shoes hmm? Ever seen this? It's in french, but the pics are self explanatory. Looking good as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazakelXIII Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Glorious. Kikkala, it's good to have you back with us. :tu: Nice biggerizing on the Termy - can't wait to see the whole squad. :tu: Sweet Imperial Fist, by the way.

kikkala Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 @Asmodeus' Swordhand You got that right :). Never seen that before, it looks good, but the end results look little weird for me, especially the arm positions :P. @RazakelXIII It's good to be back. The other marine ain't Imperial Fist, he's a Lamenter :P. @TAS Mmmm, yeees :P. Today was GSing day. I filled and did some impurity seals :P. Really short update, really :lol:.

Asmodeus' Swordhand Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I never can tell what's going on with those french :( I hadn't looked at it in a while, but it is a pretty good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I assume you won't be doing too much in the way of re-posing for the terminators? The 'small' update still looks great. I still think you make things look easy! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikkala Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 @Asmodeus' Swordhand Hehe, yeah ;). @TAS Nah, the terminator legs are pretty hard to repose, like the current legs I'm working with, sculpted tabard and other junk. Too much destroyable details :cuss. And todays update, nothing. I'm off to partying. Oh, my vacation started too ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just finished a bunch of Tau and yea know the greater good is all hunkey dorey but when you feel like tearin sh*t up (again sorry :D ). I am definatly going to try some Word Bearers although I doubt I will come NEARLY as close to the kick @$$ (I relly gotta stop this crudness) painting skill you have!
