hivetrygon Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Demon lord is done and so while making molds started something new to show off my new skill level. A series of 5 of these demons will be done. 30mm to top of head, other 4 will be 32 mm to top of head in a standing crouch like position in various poses. Similar style yet variations on the theme. These should be a big hit with all kind of people. http://trollsforge.com/workbench2/demft4.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168461-demon-foot-soldier/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â looks great possible my favourite so far Yes, Troll Forged Miniatures is my site. I took on new sculptors as well trying to help them and the program is hard on me but helps people starting out. I have been slow on doing my own thing trying to keep up with new sculptors and their demand on top of everything else so this guy was a break for me to get some "ME" time in. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168461-demon-foot-soldier/#findComment-1987808 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Crowbreath Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 looks great so far. when i saw the title i immediately thought about giant gozilla style feet roaming the battle field, but this is almost as good what will be the weapons like? will they all be like the blade he be holding, or more elaborate blades, or something else entirely...

hivetrygon Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 I want to do an elaborate blade but will limit it for those who wish to paint some freestyle. More on the pomell? and guard area. Horns will look like spine. Little issue with one of the wrists but that will be fixed before finished: http://trollsforge.com/workbench2/demft5.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168461-demon-foot-soldier/#findComment-1988083 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hivetrygon Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 size comparison? If I can remember I'll get one when done. He is however about 29mm to the top of skull, not horns.

wiplash Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 not sure about the face i was imagining it to look more like a daemonic troll face rather than a daemonic gollum face  and the horns are too big in my opinion, they seem to stretch the mini too far, it might work if he was holding something in his other hand, but he isnt so...  other than that looks great the neck turned out really well Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168461-demon-foot-soldier/#findComment-1988160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hivetrygon Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 Might change the horns but here you can see the face better. http://trollsforge.com/workbench2/demft7.jpg  There will be 5 of these, all slightly different and some smaller. The idea is this is the leader and biggest, hence he is kneeling to make him as tall as the others on foot crouched over slightly. I also wanted huge horns to make him look older than the rest. Idea is the horns are larger with age. thus the rest will have much smaller horns. This guy might become a greater demon someday. :mellow: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168461-demon-foot-soldier/#findComment-1989575 Share on other sites More sharing options...
arbogast1 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Personally, I think that the horns are too large for the model, and make it seem kind of top-heavy. Other than that, it looks great.

Graypaint Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 the face is pretty flat dude. It needs some more work to really pop. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168461-demon-foot-soldier/#findComment-1989702 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kikunosuke Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 It definitely looks better after the horn change. It's a fantastic sculpt, hive. Is there going to be more detail at the daemon's buttock area? It looks a wee bit sparse at the moment.

hivetrygon Posted May 16, 2009 Author Share Posted May 16, 2009 the face is pretty flat dude. It needs some more work to really pop. Yep, he is getting a tail. Â Face is not flat I just can't get a photo good enough. What do you expect for a skull like face? ^_^ There is not much to a skull. I still have a little work to do on him but mostly in the jaw line area and might add a spine or 2 coming out of cheekbones.

malika666 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Hmm, I already mentioned the potential of some sort of "beard horn" under his chin on the Troll Forged forums. Another idea, maybe for the next daemon would be to put the mouth (not the rest of the head/face) a bit more forward, getting this kind of deformed hound effect, very old school Khorne.

mitchell93 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I was going to say the sword needs to be bigger but you have fixed it in the last picture with the guard. Also he looks good enough to be a Demon Prince to me. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168461-demon-foot-soldier/#findComment-1991262 Share on other sites More sharing options...

INKS Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 the horns still seem to thick to me. size seems ok now, but too thick. other then that I don't care for the sword.
