lostsoul Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Ah don't you just hate that.. the misplaced conversion bits. hehe. Glad I reminded you, thanks, should have known you'd have had the same idea too at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Constantinus Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 So, I got the molds for the princess poured, here are some pictures. I'm using a transparent silicon rubber called "Sort-a-Clear" by Smooth-on; that makes it super easy to cut open the molds without costly errors. The trick with clear silicon is that your mold box must be absolutely smooth to achieve maximum clarity. Any grain refracts the light penetrating the block and you won't be able to see through it. I use homemade foam core box, with the inside lined with clear packing tape. It works a treat. http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_7643.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_7648.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_7647.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_7645.jpg I'll get the molds cut tonight, and should have the first assembled cast posted up before morning. More Later! So are you planning on selling any of these casts? Caus I'm interested in the soulgrinder!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sersi Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 Well here what I've been wasting time on for the last couple of days. this is was to test out a few things. The Daemon Princess #2's body is molded finally. Also I was testing out a tentacle head concept, which while incomplete seems to be working...yeah! And I had a plastic LOTR fell beast lying around, so I looked at the wing and said...hmmm...just about the right size. Here's the result. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113626_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113627_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113628_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113629_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113630_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113631_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113648_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113632_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113633_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113634_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/16/113635_sm-.JPG I don't plan on using the dragon wings in this army mind you...I like the feathered wings better. The juxtaposition of soft downy feathers and hard scaly crab claws is such a nice contrast. Anyway, everything else is still in progress...updates to follow!

lostsoul Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Feathered wings spread open like those would look gorgeous I reckon. Mmmm tentacle hair, Ray Harryhausen's Medusa has a lot to answer for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sersi Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 Yeah, looking at these wings made start sculpting a set of spread feathered wings. I also got this new flexible resin, so I can make them thinner with no fear of the breaking. The manufacturer says that it accepts priming and painting very well. If it works out okay I'll do the head tentacles, and fabric with the same stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofmanynames Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 you are a sculpting GOD! I am amazed, these are the most beautiful pieces of art I have ever seen. You should be very proud of yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostsoul Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 New flexible resin? Thinner, stronger, detailing? And it likes paint? Sounds mouthwatering already.. I'm beginning to believe the dark god is channeling seductive creations through you. Lucky us :mellow: Yet again, can't wait to see what your nimble fingers make. Going by the wings you've already sculpted, fanned out spread wings are going to look insanely pretty. This might end up the tallest miniature in your collection so far.

Sersi Posted June 22, 2010 Author Share Posted June 22, 2010 So here is the actual finished DP Mark 2: http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114870_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114871_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114872_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114873_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114874_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114875_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114876_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114877_sm-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/22/114878_sm-.JPG Other things: 1. DP Mark 3 is being worked on, and should be ready this week. 2. The Soul Grinder is undergoing some extensive HR Giger inspired carving and detailing. 3. The large KOS is getting re-worked to bring out the musculature, and anatomy. 4. My re-envisioned fiends are nearly done, save for the alternate heads. ...and work permitting I may even paint a squad of daemonettes...hah! More Later!

lostsoul Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 That hair looks so good, better than I thought after the batwing teaser images with incomplete hair. Gotta say too that in these new photographs, they really show off the princess. Smooth finish and crisp armoured detail, and I love that claw. Can't wait to see what embelishments you make to your "other things". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sersi Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 Soulgrinder: So, I've been studying some Giger art books i picked up online...um...wow! I saw a Giger Slaaneshi chariot the other day, and I must make at least 4 of those. August can't get here fast enough I wants my plastic seekers. The new mounts look great and are a lot beefier that the old ones. The Soulgrinder will definitely be receiving some Giger-style lovin'....ewww.... I also started on sculpting some Giger-esque bits to cast up to convert up the vehicles for some true-scale Emperors Children; I want to make to go along with my other Slannesh army. Oh yeah.... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sersi Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 Okay I should have posted these up a while ago.

lostsoul Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Ponytail looks very energetic, I can imgine that swishing around and being almost like its own parrying weapon against those sneaky rear attackers (I'd say it was if narrating the account of a battle report). She even looks like shes amused and devious with that expression. Fleshwhip, giant claw, ponytail, dangerous combination if she were in a martial arts movie. Opponants will feel lucky she didnt put barbs or other sharp things in her hair.. ouch. Like the studded pasty and the armour, very much like some of the demon sketches in Workshop books. I think they make her all the more intimidating, as if she wasn't dangerous enough, she dressed for war - not a good sign for the enemy. Love the Fiend, looks like its a sprinter.

MNONE Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I always look forwards to updates on this thread. They look so good. The DP looks quite happy, like she's enjoying her work. Personally, I'd think the fiend's torso might look better leaning forwards rather than reared up, like it's running with its head down. Rearing up on a few might look good for variation, but that'd ideally need a slightly different pose on the legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sersi Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 At last the DP#3 is all cleaned up and nearly ready for casting: Their are still a few minor details to clean up, such as the hand in contact with the ground, the alternate arms, and the choker collar. I'm switching to a ball and socket joint for the neck/head connection point, thats similar to what the plastic daemonettes have. While, not as anatomically correct it will allow the head to be posed more easily. Or you could use magnets so that the head would be pose-able. http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8164.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8165.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8166.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8167.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8168.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8169.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8173.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8174.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sersi Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 Another turn-around with a different head: Just showing off the body with an alternate head. http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8176.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8177.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8178.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8179.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8180.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8181.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8182.jpg http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8183.jpg And lastly a picture with the scabbard: While working on the scabbard it occurred to me that unless the thing was much larger that the actual sword, you could never pull the sword out. But that doesn't look nearly as cool, but she's a daemon, so maybe it phases through the scabbard or whatever... :tu: http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq3/Fifth_miracle/Actual%20Scale%20Black%20Templars/Vampire%20Counts/Slaanesh/IMG_8184.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword brethren Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 you shouldn't be allowed to sculpt... in the same way the heavy weight boxers are not allowed to fight featherweights and in the same way jackie chan doesn't enter tournaments against 4 year olds. seriously though, this all looks fantastic and i agree with the scabbard thing, i can't imagine a huge one making it look cool. cant wait to see some more :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
