Update 5: Just a quicky - this guy is freaking me out! http://photos-a.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v363/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4295944_3102.jpg Update 4: Hi all! sorry new job/life been getting in the way, have only just managed to lay any paint on him :) Here's a few pics (sorry green still wet!) http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v363/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4287538_2296.jpg I 'think' this is the right green. needs some more work, but getting there :> http://photos-d.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v363/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4287539_2643.jpg Oh thanks boss, just what I always wanted a flying, dead baby, clockwork, mini-me to follow me round everywhere... http://photos-e.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v363/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4287540_2988.jpg There will be a story behind this shield... :P Hi all! Well just back from fishing, and added the last couple of bits to him (his shield is almost done too, pics of that later :P ) http://photos-322.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-snc1/v351/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4240751_2564.jpg http://photos-322.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-snc1/v351/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4240753_2997.jpg Hi again all! Thanks once more for all the constructive criticism, and great help. I've done a bit more this afternoon, added crest, spear haft etc. trimmed helmet a little. Have tried to remove his body from this legs, unfortunately, I seem to have done an extraordinary job of sticking the two together, hmmmm. His led stance is bugging me, I cant believe its the natural stance of the model!! I was going to go for an oblong shield, but think I may instead go for a large round one... Anyway pics! http://photos-d.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-snc1/v351/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4227947_3757.jpg http://photos-e.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-snc1/v351/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4227948_4122.jpg Hi all, Well, after a bit of planning, terminator no.4 the Mentor Legionnairre. Took the basic idea from ingenious artwork of others, still needs lots of detailing etc. with big roman-esque shoulderpads, and back mounted horse hair crest etc. Will be armed with thunderhammer and storm shield. http://photos-g.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-snc1/v351/128/96/633810322/n633810322_4222486_3614.jpg So you get the general idea :> please comment :> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurglespuss Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 Cheers man :> Gotta trim back the nose guard (photos are good for spotting errors) I admit, I'm having a lot of fun with this project! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf89 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I really like what you've done so far, only thing is his legs seem spread out too far, but it might work in as he beefs up a bit more. Great helm! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglespuss Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 Cheers! Yes his legs do look a little odd at the mo (not changed position) hioefully more beefing/basing rubble will sort that :> Thanks for the helmo compliment! cutting out those tiny plasticard pits was hard!!

Mr. Nipples Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!?! looks like maximus helmet. Awesome, looks very much like a gladiator, love the feet. few crits, like was already said this dude is spread apart like a linebacker right now. I think bulkin up his crotch would help alot, other then that this should be a cool little build. Will def. be watching this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash113 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Wow a very nice start there, lookin pretty good already. A little "thick" perhaps but maybe as he gets some more upper body details the balance will even out some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trajan Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Mr nurglespuss, DAMN!!!! You are absolutely wicked when it comes to combining greenstuff and plasti!! He will look good right next to the others :P -Trajan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal Fingered Villain Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 That helmet is pretty slick. I think to solve the linebacker problem nipples was talking about, just extending the midsection of him so his chest sits a little higher might help even him out, and then once the arms are put on it. sweet.

nurglespuss Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 Cheers, good ideas there! Plasticard and green stuff for the win! (Am I too old to say that? :) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImperialTemplari Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Hi nurglespuss, very creative, the head maybe to big, am looking forward to more pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf89 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Cheers, good ideas there! Plasticard and green stuff for the win! (Am I too old to say that? :( ) Depends, did you lift up your hands and cheer out loud IRL while typing that sentence? :P I agree with extending the torso like MF suggested, I think it'll fix the problem. On another note, I didn't notice the skull for some reason, I really like it, especially since I'm re-doing my daemon army and have been trying to GS some skulls and such and find it way harder than I thought. You seemed to nail it. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglespuss Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 Cheers man :> skulls took me some practice! I did a load on some plasticrd until I was happy :> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf89 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Wow he looks 150% better (not that he wasn't uber to begin with) but he's got a lot more detail and buffed out more and I think the legs work better now. The first picture cracked me up at first because it almost looked like he was holding an exacto knife... ;) The helm looks MUCH better as well. keep it up!

ImperialTemplari Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Hi nurglespuss, now he looks aw some, I was thinking he was out of proportion but that changes with adding the arms etc, very nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglespuss Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 Thanks a lot! I'm glad he looks a little more balanced now!!

Vash113 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Yea now that he's got all the details the proportions have definitely evened out and good lord he looks sweet. I love the little cherub to accompany him. Full of character, totally unique, a lovely conversion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
