Maratheus Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Very nice sculpting you got there. Will he be a Daemon-Primarch or befor the Heresy? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143055-motarion-wip/#findComment-1656976 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorns Padawan Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 What is your secret to sculpting??? (besides patience and hard work!) Do you use special tools or is there a special knack to it? Would love to be able to sculpt half as good as that!!! I have attempted sculpting with GS but it looks like a 4 year old is trying to make something out of green plastercine!!! BTW still looks absolutely class!!! Like the way its going, shall be tracking this thread with keen interest Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143055-motarion-wip/#findComment-1657290 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal Fingered Villain Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 This is some good stuff, real smooth and crisp. some of the edges should be trimmed down with an x-acto knife to sharpen up the edges as some look a tad rounded. All in all, good stuff, can't wait to see him finished for Mortarion is a certified badass.

jdmchaos Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 thanks for the comments guys love to here good and bad.he is preherey,and you are right metal finger he is a tad round for some reason i felt like he looked a little robotic so the round legs kind offelt that way to me ike they were cylinder shaped.dorn padawan,when you sculpt you nee all kinds of tools,i have ones i use for special things.the best thing to do is not be afraid to try different things.the best tool i ever bought was a clay shapper. well anyhow i work third shift all weekend but when i get free time i will work on him and post photo,s.again thanks for comments guys.joe Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143055-motarion-wip/#findComment-1658029 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorns Padawan Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Now you mention it, i swear i have read somewhere on the B&C before that someone used clay shapers? Will defo look to make an investment in them!

jdmchaos Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 ok guys here is some more photos.i did the backpack pipes and arms,i allso added the weapons.please i need feedback on a few things.(1)do you guys think the arms are ok or should i change them.(2)do the weapons look ok.(3)should his cloak look ragged or clean(4)what does he have on his shoulder guards.i am allmost finished with them but cant tell whats on them from photos.http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee86/jdmchaos/11wip-1-mort.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143055-motarion-wip/#findComment-1659370 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdmchaos Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 o yeah i need to know what type of bases should i go with.from what ive read they are from a very cold ice like planet is that right?

Dorns Padawan Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I wouldn't have the cloak ragged, Primarchs are meant to be demi-gods so i personally would have the cloak crisp and clean and make the armour real ornate. Have some big badass shoulder pads and have him looking like he IS the father/leader of a mighty Astartes legion! Just my 2 bobs worth  PS - have you made those arms purely out of GS or is it GS ontop of plastic arms?  PPS - congrats again on excellent smoothness and workmanship with the GS!!! :wink: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143055-motarion-wip/#findComment-1659377 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdmchaos Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 everything but the weapons and face is greenstuff.what do you think of weapons? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143055-motarion-wip/#findComment-1659379 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MmmmmFlamed'Nid Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I wouldn't make his armour ornate, the death guard don't care about appearance, just functionality. Personally I would tear the cloak up and make it really big to give him more of a grim reaper feel. As for the weapons, I'm not too keen on him having a gun, just seems out of character for a primarch. Â My two cents.

jdmchaos Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 the reason for the gun is he carried a master crafted plasma pistal called the lantern. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143055-motarion-wip/#findComment-1659418 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frost Knight Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 clean cloak looks good. I think if you can you should replace his head with the sm commanders head with the rebreather and add some guitar wire to connect it back up with the exaust pipes which i think you should replace with vehicle smoke stacks, maybe some bigger shoulder pads to. Other wise it looks awsome! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143055-motarion-wip/#findComment-1659739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
