Slaaneshi Themed Daemon Army


Sersi

Recommended Posts

Okay here's a minor update on the Grinder:

 

 

I went ahead and cut off the horns.

I then went in an bored out new sockets for the horn to plug into.

I also bored tunnel through the neck and out through the mouth. This will prevent the sculpt from being locked into the mold, will help preserve the details.

I then added a plug to the end of the neck.

I made the plug slightly under sized, so that the head can be posed.

Is she writhing in pain or esctacy? Who can say with Slaanesh.

 

 

 

 

And some scale pictures:

Fantastically disturbing, as always. I like the return to the simple dais full of pillows for the grinder. The added S&M gear will certainly contrast well, particularly if it's painted in a contrasting color that really makes it obvious.

Lord Andreas:

 

 

Hi, I left the eyes intentional vague. It seems to me a living avatar of the God/Goddess of Sensation would have hundreds of senses undreamed of by man. That and having no eyes is creepier. I kind of want to work in a "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" them. how freaky would some mouth-less daemonettes be?

 

That said the other variant heads will have eyes, and I'm working on a "Minotaur" head.

 

 

army310:

 

 

The basic armature for this guy was made from aluminum wire, aluminum foil, and polymer clay. Once that was baked hard, I built up the musculature and details with Aves Fixit (epoxy clay). The last pictures how the final model cast in light grey resin.

 

 

Quixus

 

I think a quote from Hellraiser best summarizes Slaanesh...

 

"Demons to some, Angels to others."

 

 

Wulfenstein

 

Ah...painting? I have some ideas on how I want certain units to look but I've not yet nailed down a color scheme yet. I want something dark and realistic, with more muted colors than is usual for Slaanesh. So, no day-glow or skittles colored daemons for me. It's important for me that they look like and army, like they all represent the same deity.

Anazing stuff as usual Sensi.

 

I kind of want to work in a "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" them

 

Maybe you should model one of your daemons to have no features at all, but rather just a mask of flesh with slight hollows to suggest the jaw/eye sockets and a bump to suggest a nose. To make it more Slaaneshi you could make the skin studded/pierced.

Here's an update on the Chariots:

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245084_sm-.JPG

 

 

The face on the second chariot will have stylized tentacles that spread out across the chariots front.

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245089_sm-.JPG

 

 

Here's the chariot scaled against a Pleasure Seeker.

 

 

 

Seekers of Slaanesh:

 

 

I don't like the big claws on the Seeker models so I substituted WF Dark Elf lances and shields.

 

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245091_sm-.JPG

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245090_sm-.JPG

 

 

 

 

Daemonette Nipples:

 

So, I cut and scraped smooth the chests of the daemonettes and sculpted on exposed breasts of various sizes and degrees of perkiness; from natural to silicone. :D I used Aves Sculpt so that I could get the basic forms really smooth with a bit of light sanding. I intended to use GS for the actual nipples but even using a small stamp I made from styrene in was taking way to long. I have 150 or so daemonettes, all needing between 2-6 nipples each. :mellow:

 

So, I was reading a tutorial today were the guy used a tooth pick to stamp freckles on his daemonettes, and I thought...if only I could do that with the nipples. But what to use...how about super glue? but that flowed to much, so I need something thicker. Then I remembered that you can mix talcum powder into superglue and use it as a filler. It worked great! and hardened up fast as well. Apply multiple applications to get the size and diameter you want.

 

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245092_sm-.JPG

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245093_sm-.JPG

 

Oh yeah...let them dry with their breast pointing down. Like so.

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245094_sm-.JPG

 

 

 

Wax Casts:

 

Ahhh...molten wax.

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/8/244400_sm-.JPG

 

Just giving the cooling wax a finally stir to mix the components.

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/8/244402_sm-.JPG

 

Here I am ladling wax into the molds. The molds were first heated in a microwave to help the wax flow into the recesses of the mold. I also butterfly the molds open to pour wax into the bottom of the mold. You couldn't do this with resin and it'd be messy and wast a ton of resin.

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/8/244404_sm-.JPG

 

But with wax I don't really care if it overflows the mold. I have a bowl lined with aluminum foil to catch any spillage. When done I place the bowl in the freezer for a few minutes to harden the wax so it comes off easily. Then back into the melt pot it goes.

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/8/244403_sm-.JPG

 

My melt pot is a $20 multi-cooker from Walmart.

 

 

Here are the molds in one of my pressure pots. Pressure casting ensurs that the wax gets into the molds details, and it makes the the wax harder and more dense.

 

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/8/244405_sm-.JPG

 

 

Here's the pot pressurized to 60 psi, alot more than necessary. But the higher the pressure the harder the resulting wax will be.

 

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/8/244407_sm-.JPG

 

 

And the results:

 

Admittedly, the casts of the grinder aren't perfect; but that's due to the flaws in the mold that I show earlier. They cleaned up very nicely.

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/8/244408_sm-.JPG

 

 

The main benefit of using wax besides it being reusable, is that its very easy to smooth and to carve fine details. With my wax pen I can also draw on fine details as well. So, once I gat the her smooth and tollerance the surface on the sculpt. I be drawing on the belly veins, and carving in a complex Henna pattern like this one:

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245109_sm-.jpg

 

or this:

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245110_sm-.jpg

 

On second thought maybe I should just doe the pattern in micron pen once she's painted? Maybe something like this custom Lord of Change buy Metal Fingered Villian:

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/10/245111_sm-.jpg

 

 

 

 

Oh yeah, I cast this guy too. He'll be getting some additional detailing as well.

I cast the Soulgrinder in wax, and took pics of the process. So, I will post those tonight.

 

 

 

Later!

Hi Guys,

 

I've been working on new stuff, as well as cleaning up and in some cases replacing some of the older sculptures and conversions. I gotten a bit better since I started this project and a few things were falling behind. The important thing is that I'm learning...I guess. :)

 

So, first up I when back and replace all the riders on Pleasureseekers.

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/21/249724_sm-.JPG

 

http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/7/21/249725_sm-.JPG

 

They all have lances and shields. The models with extra kit, such as the Alluress and musician have their shields strapped on their backs. Anyway these are ready to paint now.

 

Parts List:

 

Bodies - Seekers kit

heads - Seekers and Daemonette kits

claws - Seekers and Daemonette kits

humanoid hands & arms - WF Vampire Counts - Ghouls kit

Lances & swords - WF Dark Elves - Cold One Riders kit

Shields - WF Dark Elves - Cold One Riders kit

Mount - WF Warriors of Chaos - Slaanesh Lord kit

Wings - WF Brettans - Pegasus Knight kit

 

 

 

 

Daemon Princess:

 

I also re-sculpted the tentacle hair on the Daemon Princess. I just didn't like how stiff it looked. So this is more like the original version I sculpted way back. Much more dynamic and layered. Plus, since its in sections like the hair of the new Dark Elf - Supreme Sorceress it should much easier to cast. :thumbsup:
