Darth Bob Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I've started working on my Angron mini. Have the majority of the upper torso finished. He's based off of the Daemon Prince model, as well as guitar strings, and a crapload of greenstuff. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_022.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_023.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_024.jpg Things I plan to do: - Have him holding the gory upper torso of a Space Marine in his left hand (complete with greenstuff entrails). - Give him a belt of skulls. - Give him some kind of Khornate tabard. More work to come in the near future, but what do ya think so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dràyhèn Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 The upper part so far looks proper and good. Face could be more human, but that's just my opinion. I guess that could be said human in this case, Angron was quite ugly & brutal looking anyways :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Bob Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 For the record, I'm basing him off of this picture from his White Dwarf entry; I dont really see how that face looks very human :\. http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/thumb/6/6a/Daemon_Prince_Angron_by_Alex_Boyd.jpg/180px-Daemon_Prince_Angron_by_Alex_Boyd.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaplainmikey Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Hi, That is looking ace so far!. I'm glad your using that particular image as a base as i love it,and your doing a brilliant job in capturing the character of that version of Angron. Really looking forward to seeing this unfold. Cheers, Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Bob Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 Got more work on Angron done. His torso is done for the most part and I've attached his left wing (which was a BI*CH to put on by the way.) The greenstuffing on the back and around the wing is a bit rough, to say the least, but no worries, all will be as it should be after my planned "touch-up phase". http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_025.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_027.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_028.jpg How do my fellow Zerkers and Imperial Scum like it?

Brother Argent Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 So far its looking pretty sweet, I must say. The resemblance of how you have done the head compared to the artwork is spot on. I look forward to seeing this one pan out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyzerker Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 He's coming along rather nicely! At this rate he'll look hella sweet when he's done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 he looks pretty cool :pinch: I've always found the DP model to be too small for a Primarch though ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anggrath the unbound Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 theyre not wires coming out of his head theyre supposed to be like dreadlocks so i would suggets continuing some from the second blob on the shoulders, and i would also add varying thicknesses of "hair" other than that sofar this is looking good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought from seeing this picture of his preheresy form, that the tubes were feeding some kind of super-steroid into his brain or something, although I appreciate the suggestion ;). http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/4/4e/Angron_Primarch_World_Eaters.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword brethren Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 i love it so far ill keep watching this, only one thing bothers me which is no fault of yours and its just me being picky, i dislike the princes legs pose, for a model of his caliber i would have made them look more actiony, like running in a fury. dont get me wrong it looks great so far im just not a fan of models that look very static. keep it up ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blood_raven_240 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 It's looking fantastic so far, I'll keep an eye on this Topic - I'm keen to see it finished, it should be absolutely brilliant when it's done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Bob Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 Got the second wing on. This one was incredibly easy to attach compared to the first one. All that's left now is the arms, SM torso, and his belt. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_029.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_030.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtNACHO Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Angron "Hey Imperial puppet, guess what?" Marine "what?" Angron "I'm on a Mu**A Fu**in Boat!" He then proceeds to rip hid guts out! :P Very nice model so far But I think, going off the picture, it looks like he has some big devil horns coming from the top of his head. But he looks great already :P Edit: My mistake those are just more coils, although some horns would look cool :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Bob Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 Okay, he's about 85% done. All that's left is the evicerated corpse in his left hand, and something to add to his back. I ditched the "belt of severed heads" as after dryfitting some heads I found it looked terribly clunky and busy. So I've ditched that idea. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_031.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_032.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Bob Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 i think ive just been inspired to take my own crack at this i like it alot Glad to see I've inspired you ;). By the way, after seeing some comments on the other forums I've posted these latest pics I'd like to add something. Yes, I'm sure the sword is a bit boring for the Primarch of the World Eaters, I personally think a massive Chainaxe would be awesome. However, his stat-sheet specifically says he weilds a "Black Iron blade with glowing runes of doom". This sword is pretty much perfect since I don't even need to add runes.

Brother Argent Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Nope, I think the sword suits. And an eviscerated Space Marine in his hand would look swet. All in all the models looking great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword brethren Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 wow, now ive seen it put together more i feel i owe you an apolagy and to say i was wrong, the pose looks great! can't wait the see the marine torn up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Mike Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Personal opinion: he's too small. He's supposed to lead blodoy thirsters, so I'd say he should be bigger. Conversion wise though, this is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
