FaeLi-N Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Just wanted to put in my 2p! Love the sculpts that you did, think they're a brilliant representation of what you're trying to achieve, and also (obviously) am dying to know your casting procedure, think it's worked out brilliantly!

Pulse Posted November 3, 2008 Author Share Posted November 3, 2008 Ok, here is a comparison size picture to a normal GW marine. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Pulsey/comparisonsize.jpg As you can see in this picture the Star Lord on the left is the orginal sculpt and not a cast. The marine on the right was all the bits i could find, no arms haha. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Vespasian Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Looks about the right size. Great work BTW. Are you also casting special weaponry? That would be interesting Brother Vespasian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 my guess is that you would keep the weapons the same size,most other truescale marines are that way,it makes the marines look more imposing :) great stuff Pulse :P Cheers Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulse Posted November 3, 2008 Author Share Posted November 3, 2008 Yep the weapons will stay the same size, unlike the tanks. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugar-free Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 hey Pulse, like is said earlier your stuff looks great. i know that pic is for size, but is the helm going to look that way? i think you should sink the helm alittle. just cut the bottom of it and sink it down. just my 2 cents.

Pulse Posted November 3, 2008 Author Share Posted November 3, 2008 (edited) hey Pulse, like is said earlier your stuff looks great. i know that pic is for size, but is the helm going to look that way? i think you should sink the helm alittle. just cut the bottom of it and sink it down.just my 2 cents. Yep thats the idea, i will cut a bit of the bottom of the helmet so it sits well and file off the pipes and cut in the vents. I want it looking exactly like the painted IF mini. :( Edited November 3, 2008 by Pulse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomsly Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 (edited) thats a good ize you have there not to big but all in proportion too :tu: cant wait for the tut either :P Edited November 4, 2008 by wargamingbunker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder_god Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Looks nice. These will be very impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I second this idea. Not only would it assist with the proportions (to the eye, not to other models), it would make the armor look more solid and imposing... well...in my mind anyway.

Alpha PTP Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 @AlphaPHP: A couple of the AoBR marines have mk4 legs, it might be worth looking into. Well, I'm broke at the moment. I have about... ten dollars to my name. Sculpting for me is free because I have all of the materials. Not only that, I want to start casting some of my own parts. (scythes, converted power weapons and power fists, and truescale legs, arms, and bodies.) Thanks for a point in the right direction, though.

Your quite right mate, and it will be done. :D I will be working on the back packs and the helmet now, progress is a bit slow just now but the work is still being done. Update soon. :) Edited November 4, 2008 by Pulse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heru Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Pulsey/comparisonsize.jpg The problem I can see the original sculpt is the fact that you seemed to have only tried to true-scale the lower part of the leg, and so have ended up with the knee pad halfway up his thigh...

Thunder_god Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Awesome looking mock up. That is a nice looking Marine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tis true its slightly off on the static legs, was saying to Barret last night that i should have lengthed the thigh as well but seeing as these are more realisic than half the true scaled marines i have seen so far, i think they are OK. Plus once i add the weapons and extra bits they'll take away from the flaw. The running legs are fine, i had a look at those again to make sure. Its just the static legs and it's annoying me slightly, might bin the first casts and start again. Edited November 4, 2008 by Pulse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortsonfire79 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Don't bin the first casts, You could give them to me! (or sell them, but don't tell nobody.) (sell them to me I mean =-D ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
