Pyriel Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 The second firedrake libby done. Well, the books arent finished yet and the green armour is sloppy but everything else is an effort job. I wanted him to use a psychic power (open hand) but at the same time carry a storm shield so I figured he might as well let ho of the shield to cast a spell as the shield is attached to his armour by power cables and it might just look cool. Cant use the ugly terminator shields for a first company librarian so I opted for something else and sculpted up an eagle-themed storm shield and attached it to the libby with a piece of metal wire that is formed to look just like a continuation of the libbys arm power cable. (thus the linked "S" shape he power cable makes all the way from the shoulder to the back of the storm shield) Everything is covered in greenstuff and painted and here is the finished (almost) firedrake librarian. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1st%20comp/li3.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1st%20comp/li1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1st%20comp/li4.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1st%20comp/li2.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156084-librarian/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Kashnizel Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 As always, great stuff! I love the shield! How did you make it (or where did you get it)? The basing is very nice aswell and the green is really well done! Keep up the good work!

Hailfyre Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 if ya gave him red eyes you could pass him off as a sally librarian quite easily. very good painting as always, and love the shading on the big standard like thing :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156084-librarian/#findComment-1824632 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazarus666 Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Awsome painting as usual pyriel! But i think that the inside of the shield could use some more love. :tu: Your painting and sculpting inspires me.

Prot Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Very well done. I particularly like the metals. No red eyes though? Or am I missing it? Anyway, great job. The banner pole is superbly done.

Dust01 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Oh wow! Very nice job, Pyriel. I'm particularly intrigued by the basing job: the rock texture and the fungi are things I'd love to try out myself. Care to share your secrets?

jay79 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Sweet model! Looks really good. Although I did laugh when imagining the librarian shouting in battle: "I am the mighty Petrok (or other SM name)... and I will smite you with my mastercrafted........ STUFF!"

Pyriel Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Very well done. I particularly like the metals. No red eyes though? Or am I missing it? I dont like red eyes and jet black skin, makes the minis look like something out of a bad fantasy movie. I´ll stick to "normal" africans. Oh wow! Very nice job, Pyriel. I'm particularly intrigued by the basing job: the rock texture and the fungi are things I'd love to try out myself. Care to share your secrets? Ok, I will do a tutorial in a while then. Although I did laugh when imagining the librarian shouting in battle: "I am the mighty Petrok (or other SM name)... and I will smite you with my mastercrafted........ STUFF!" Well he is kinda smiting the evil mutated mushrooms.. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156084-librarian/#findComment-1835314 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay79 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 lol I did not notice the mushrooms... even cooler! But yes, they would have to be Chaos Mushrooms in order to grow that near to boiling lava.
