malika666 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Could you please do a tutorial of the first one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted June 16, 2009 Author Share Posted June 16, 2009 The second machine is basically just a rip-off of a Dognought (You can find loads of cool ones here, the one that sold me on the idea was the one of Bobpanda) A tutorial could be quite hard to do for the first one, it's more or less built from scratch. I started off with a T made with sprue pieces and began adding Bitz that worked. You just have to take some sprues and your bitzbox, two gallons of Plastic Glue and you're good to go ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 can you give a tutorial on the first on :P or at least a word guide on bits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 Guide on bitz... you joker! I mostly used the Chaos Tank Sprue and the Ravenwing sprue. And some other stuff lying around XD As said, I started by building the underlying structure with long pieces of sprue, then added the bitz that formed the front and back. At the top, I added the tank commander body (the one where your marine only sticks his head out) as a neck for the head. Next I added details to fill the biggest gaps and built shoulder guards from tank hatches. Then I used a half rocket from the Vindicator kit and more sprue sticks to build the legs and feet and covered them up in bitz. After that, I just added bitz where I thought they fit. I'm not very methodical about these things, I just have an idea and start to build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 You made me do it... I just sat my exams and to blow off some steam, I started with my next completely bitz-built robot and made some step-by-step pictures of building the torso. Like said, I start out with a T-shape and a place for the head to rest later: http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/robotlord001.jpg Then I added larger pieces to cover the upper part of the back and started building up the chest and shoulders: http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/robotlord002.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/robotlord003.jpg And the finished torso front: http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/robotlord006.jpg The back still needs a bit of work. Once that's done, I'll start building the legs and finally the arms. This one will probably be about the size of the first one, maybe a bit bigger. I also need help on what to use for a head! Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathar the great Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 Thanks ^^ Any criticism would be very appreciated, people. Is my work so perfect and great no one has anything to say about it? ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verpine Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Also needs a lot of work, have to make it look more chaosy. No you don't. Make it loyalist! Then make them FIGHT! No really, make it loyalist. And that's some great work, wish I had that many bitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlauG Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Well, since it has the Dark Angels storm shield chest, maybe give it a hooded head with a single baleful eye visible? Make it a Fallen Dreadnought. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malika666 Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 What about a head in the same style as Migsula's TWAR: http://www.pbase.com/migsula/finishedtwar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 I don't know about a hood, but the "single baleful eye" is a nice idea, Might build it with a Sentinel Searchlight or something like that. @malika666: Coincidence, just found migsula's TWAR models on Dakka. They're really cool, but not really the feel I want to go with mine. My robots are more like Scrapyards coming to life, not systematically built battle machines. @verpine: No, they'll all be Decepti-Khornes, no Loyalist laughing stocks ^^ No progress on Machine#3, but I built the big guys some tiny fire-support mutant-machines: http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders001.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders002.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders003.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders004.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders005.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders006.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders007.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders008.jpg @Mods: Hope these are okay on this board (as Demons are okay, too). If not, I'll remove them of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share Posted June 25, 2009 One last double-post from me before I go into an early weekend. Added detail to the leader of the Mutants: http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/Scrapyarders009.jpg And more work on the newest Demonmachine: http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/robotlord007.jpg http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/robotlord008.jpg And a little group photo for your entertainment: http://tortureentertainment.blogsport.de/images/ScrapyardersGroup01.jpg Enjoy!

Terrible_Trygon Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Very nice. Shows how far a little imagination can go. Very inventive use of parts. And a true Son of Chaos should never refer to Imperials as loyalists. A true loyalist is loyal to Chaos. Imperial dogs are tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted June 28, 2009 Author Share Posted June 28, 2009 Very nice. Shows how far a little imagination can go. Very inventive use of parts. Thanks! Though the lack of interest makes me wonder what I did wrong... Picture Quality? The things not being painted? Just not that cool as I thought they were?

Spareknikov Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Very nice. Shows how far a little imagination can go. Very inventive use of parts. Thanks! Though the lack of interest makes me wonder what I did wrong... Picture Quality? The things not being painted? Just not that cool as I thought they were? I think the lack of interest is down to people being more interested in the pictures. That said, I don't think people would want to make something like this without a step by step guide or they're lazy. It really does look like a complicated project. But I think this is great, I don't think you're doing anything wrong. I've tracked this topic for a few days now and I like seeing the progress you've made, so I apologise for not commenting earlier. No... nothing wrong at all! :) Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rookster Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 not a choas player but still find your creations intriguing, I've been watching this come along as well but as noted above was more interested in the pictures as I really don't plan on ever playing chaos :rolleyes: keep up the good work though they look sick and twisted....as all chaos things should .

Dragonkin Arenis Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 No progress on Machine#3, but I built the big guys some tiny fire-support mutant-machines: They vaguely remind me of the Junk-Droids from SW:FU (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Scrap_Guardian) hehe, great work, cathar ^^ Arenis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Captain Sharp Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I am loving these things. It makes me want to do one, but I happen to be one of those tools Terrible_Trygon mentioned, so no Daemons. :) Keep up the great work. I'd love to see your bitz box, though. It must be pretty big. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JekCromium Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Awesome stuff! Your first standing monstrosity helped kick-start my desire to build some CC arms for my defiler. Keep up the awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 Here I was, whining about not getting any comments, and when they finally arrive, I don't reply XD Thanks a lot for the praise guys! My bitz box is not that big, I just had a lot of leftover Vehicle accessory sprues left that needed using up. Now people like BobPanda, he's got a really huge bitzbox, he can just cut up some defilers and tanks to build a titan and stuff... That'd be a nice hobby-budget to have ^^ Unfortunately, during my summer holidays, nearly all my hobby-related projects are on hold, until I get back to my flat in vienna. But expect updates as soon as I get back there, maybe with more Work in Progress shots for all of you who want to try something like this, too. Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spareknikov Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Nice. :blush: I'm certainly looking forward to more photos! B) Is there any idea on how you'll be painting them, if at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
