Hal Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Been playing around with this guy in-between other projects, take a gander and tell me what you think so far. http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/1850/masterwip.jpg With all my work, if anybody wants to know which bitz I used or how I did stuff, just ask. Also he's going to need arms at some point, so any suggestions on poses/bitz would be great!

jester_prince Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 To me i get the feeling this model should be "im cool and i got attitude, i dont need to pull a heroic pose to look awsome" So personaly id go with arms and weapons relaxed, or depending on what hes armed with casualy popping shots off with his pistol.

Brother Tuditanus Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Love the addition of the pouches on the belt! That really helps set off the piee, imho. Also, the gs work is BEAUTIFULLY smooth. I would totally steal this for my Salamanders if I thought I could make an Icon like theirs in the center of the chest. As for arms... What do you have him equipped with!?

SkizO Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I'd see this guy carrying a banner... Great work by the way, really looking to see this model finished!

sword brethren Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 i think he'd look great with a thunder hammer in one hand. and as jester prince said the popping shots with a pistol seems kool. either helmet him for the faceless killer look or give him an emotionless face so he looks stern and hardened. your gs is stunning by the way.

Captain Pugno Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 i love it - great gs i am in favour of a skull-esque helmet - however that may look a wee bit too chaosy definately a helmet Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/175722-wip-chapter-master/#findComment-2076689 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 swinging a thunder hammer two handed-- either in a downward crushing arc or in an uppercut (of course modelling a poor, unfortunate heretic in either case). While a helmet makes sense from a modern warfare/believability sense. The idea of a non helmeted head appeals to me more to be honest. Gorgets (neck armor) with a helmet never seem to look right. but if you did some custom greenstuff work- a non helmeted head could look great. Give it a cyber- circlet or whatever you set your mind to. If you provided info on what chapter this is for, backstory, etc. I would be able to give more ideas.

Hal Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 He has arms! The relic blade is made from a power axe and a plasticard blade. Here are some fresh shots of his arms in 2 poses. The head and arms are magnetised so I can repose him as battlefield fashion dictates.

Terminatorinhell Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 now that is a bad ass chapter master :teehee: I love it!! i just with is could do the doghouse legs as good as you :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/175722-wip-chapter-master/#findComment-2094252 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Mike Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Personally, I would have tried to have the arms pointing straight out infront of him, so he looks like he's marching straight at the enemy.

Doghouse Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Excellent job mate, the second one looks much better in my opinion. Great job on the green as well, looks really nice. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/175722-wip-chapter-master/#findComment-2094348 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hal Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 The great thing about magnets is I can change the arms and poses as needed. I'm going to do a shield/flamer so he can count as He'Stan (I'm going to call him Charlton). On a side note one of my aims on the B&C was to get a positive comment from Doghouse (always been a fan of his work), looks like I can check that one off the list! Next aim is to know something about scouts GC08 doesn't, now that's going to be harder...

Shortsonfire79 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 That truly is a badass chapter master. His teal-like paintjob is excellent as well. I guess since hes magnetized, it doesn't matter, but the second pose is cooler =-D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/175722-wip-chapter-master/#findComment-2094499 Share on other sites More sharing options...
