Darth Bob Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 This is the first World Eater I have painted. It took a while to get down the concoctions for the right red, brass, and bones, but I have finally gotten it to a point where I said "I would love an army that looks like this". This is, without a doubt, my best painted miniature. It took me a collective total of 8 hours (ironic that Khorne's number is 8 :P.) Yeah, I know that's a long time, but if I am spending this mass amount of money on plastic toy soldiers, well, dangit, I'm gunna take my time on them <_<. I used Zhufor's helmeted head, the terminator conversion sets, Lord's lightning claws, the Defiler banner pole, and an ogre gutplate. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_048.jpg I call him Kruun, the Hungerer. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_049.jpg Good look at the snow. I know I need to do another layer of black around the edge of the base, it has a little bit of white. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_050.jpg My first time trying OSL eyes. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_051.jpg I like how his shoulder and the energy tubes turned out. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_052.jpg Not sure why this picture came out so bright...the real colors are darker like the other pictures. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_053.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_054.jpg I used TCR for the blood on the claws. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_055.jpg My favorite part of the mini; no it's not suppose to be earth, I did take geography B). http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Keller/WorldEaters09/world_eaters_056.jpg Good look at his tabard. So yeah, that's the basic scheme for my World Eaters. I'm doing Urban bases with snow patches. Other guys will have more industrial/urban decorations on their bases, but I wanted to keep him simple.

Drudge Dreadnought Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Looks like a great start. The blood and red are excellent. The gold looks like it needs a wash to me, but i tmight just be the pic quality. The only thing i'm not sold on is the banner. It looks great, but its just a bit big. That is really personal preference though. Hope to see more of these soon <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177169-world-eaters-terminator/#findComment-2094606 Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-wrex Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Dude, this makes me cackle with evil laughter at it's sheer awesome-ness!! I LOVE this mini! You get a 74.5 out of 10. Keep it up, bro!!

litlamzetiv Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Yeah, that gore looks amazing and the banner, while a bit over the top, certainly stands out and is painted well. If I'm allowed one piece of constructive criticism though, the skulls on the model look fairly flat colorwise. It appears that they're more than just bleached bone, but the shading is very subtle. I think it would do wonders if you were to exaggerate your shading/highlights on them. Keep 'em coming!

Brother Mordeus Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Nice man i like the dark colors, their not too bright which what characterize chaos for me, people who paint we to bright should get lost in the warp!! :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177169-world-eaters-terminator/#findComment-2095858 Share on other sites More sharing options...
titan136 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Thats a great looking model! The gore looks very believable and clever use of the ogre gut-plate as the world eaters symbol.

MRCHAOS Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Apart from the gold needing a devlan mud wash, he looks so cool! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177169-world-eaters-terminator/#findComment-2096109 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Bob Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 Honestly, I think it's the camera that's ruining the brass. I think the flash covered up most of the shading that the Devlan Mud wash provided. It is washed, I just need to master the art of photography to show it off :P.

Cannibalizer Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Great mini, although I feel the golds are a bit dull, and I think the gore is a bit thick on the claws, but otherwise outstanding, I especially like the reds, very dark and Khorne-like :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177169-world-eaters-terminator/#findComment-2096432 Share on other sites More sharing options...
