Kek Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I need comments on how to improve my new nurgle DP but i've hit a wall with ideas any help? <_< http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk264/s...18/DSCF0386.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk264/s...18/DSCF0384.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk264/s...18/DSCF0381.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganuus Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Not sure. To me, it just doesn't say "demon prince". More of a giant mutant (which I suppose is what a DP is, lol). Maybe some wings? As a DP isn't complete without wings nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kek Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 :D good idea i'll have to find some wings. time to shop :D any more ideas guys and gulls i'm thinking of trying a bit of the old green stuff, but i ain't that good at sculpting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apoc666 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I like it, its original and effective, some wings would be great as would some really basic green stuffing of boils and pustules etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlagueBearer Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Nice conversion but it just doens't look sci-fi...Add some futuristic details and it will look better...Like a Nurgle DP some kind of decay and tubing would do the work!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_bunny Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 massive swollen belly, with tubes and guts hanging out dripping pus. not too hard to sculpt either. I love him so far, so cute :lol:! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kek Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 i knew you guys (and girls) could help :D i've just started to do some sculpting and its looking more nurgly already :) :) but still keep those ideas coming ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smelly_squig Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 i wouldnt add wings personaly i think the head is a nice idea but maby have him drooling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kek Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 drool ... i'll think about it tbh i agree wings are more to do with faster moving creatures, nurgle has always struck me as a ponderous kinda guy, still this leaves an area on the back that i don't know what to do with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumps Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 When i think Nurgle, i think bloated, puss, rotting, blisters, ozzing soars, tubes, plague spreading devices, death and decay. This guy says to me, brute strenght, scary, smash um up. I would ding up and damage the plate, maybe make it look like its bulging more, add a bunch of blisters and open soars, ozzy stuff, maybe a bloated stomach, and some tubes and device to spread the rotting plague that comes to mind when we think "Nurgle".

Kek Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 did some GS last night what do you think thus far http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk264/shagster18/228.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk264/shagster18/229-1.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk264/shagster18/230.jpg and this poor unfortunate is going on the base :( http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk264/shagster18/233.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Aerethos Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I think one of the biggest thing you could do to help would be to make it look more 40k. At this point, it mostly looks like a mutant cave troll IMHO. CSM armour would help immensely, methinks. Master_Aerethos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captin Xavier Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Hey, great work so far I also agree with Master_Aerethos as it does just look like a troll, a great way to sort this out would be to give him a nice big technicaly advanced backpack. This will git it that 40k look, another good idea would be to add pipes here and there. Are you going to give him a ranged weapon? Great work Cpt X :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kek Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 Well as a DP he can't really have a ranged weapon as such but i'm giving him the nurgle rot psychic power. as for a back pack i was thinking of using a dreadnaught power plant with a bit of modifying. on this i'll proberly have some pipes connected from the plant to the body somehow. thanks for the ideas :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Aerethos Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I think the one thing, concerning the futuristic look that would help most, would be to sculpt armour on the shins. You know, just some power armour. Shouldn't be too hard, especially since you seem to be competent at sculpting. Master_Aerethos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kek Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 well actually that was only my second attempt at sculpting but thanks :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Aerethos Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 ACtually, elongating the legs would help a lot, IMHO. Just the shins. Master_Aerethos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kek Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 how would i go about doing that without too much damage to the model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azura Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 you know what would be cool that the guardsman would be eaten by a rotting maw and on the prince have his guts hanging out,his head being half eaten( like gothmog, lord of hte rings) P.S. is that the new mordor troll??

Kek Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 yeah that's the basis of the model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kek Posted June 19, 2008 Author Share Posted June 19, 2008 back again. been toying around with a few ideas and i came up with this for the back power plant for the prince http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk264/shagster18/SP_A0310-1.jpg yay or nay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlagueBearer Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 It looks nice but I will have to see it on the DP...Keep up the good work dude!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Aerethos Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 The following is assuming you plan to sculpt armour on the shins. REally, all you need to do, is cut the shins at about the halfway point, use a pin-vice to drill holes in the tops & bottoms of the shins. Then, use some nice thick wire (like a hanger) to elongate the shins. Use putty to fill in. That's what I recommend, anwyays.

Kek Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 ok i'll give it a go but if it fails you'l have grandfather nurgle to answer to just kidding :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
