Ultras commander I NEED HELP GUYS!


Recommended Posts

if money is not an issue get sicarius's helmet it is quite roman in look also use the roman tabard from the commander box set, in addition try using the sword from the captian in the aobr box set. that should get you started hope that helps

Check out good ole wiki! Roman Armor

 

There's lots of stuff, sword shapes and the like. I like the Lorica segmentata, The Shoulder pads would look awesome if they were bulked out a bit!

 

Heres some links to images:

 

Chest plate

 

Helmet

 

Helmets 2

 

Hope they help a bit! most of it look easy enough to make with plasticard without too much hassle!

be nice, he's just asking for help.

as for roman style armor and such, you should check the tutorials in the librarium, there are many roman crest tutorials in there to be found, as for the breast plates... i sadly have no idea haha

I can feel this thread is going to blow up...its a hunch.

 

I would try making your TS model first, without arms or a head, so just legs and body, then work from there. It always works best for me when I do my TSings. That way, I can add stuff that compliment the pose. So if its a running guy, then arms with X stuff on it would look better than with Y stuff.

The shoulder pads from the space marine command squad company champion are quite roman-esque and different. Also these helmets are an alternative to Sicarius'. I think they are also designed for 30mm miniatures so would probably be a good size for a true-scale model.

 

All the best!

Ok guys sorrys it been so long for an update but i have him together almost need to wait for the forgeworld shoulder bads so i can G'S them and a suitable cloaks is wining its way to me but here he is atm.

Sorry if i missed an earlier post explaining; but which shoulder pad are you getting :D

Not sure if i like the shoulder pad on the knee or not. I think if you filed it down some, one so it isn't quite as massive, but also so it doesn't look like a shoulder pad you threw on there. I do like the huge greaves on Marines giving them that walking wall appearance. Just make sure he has some boss shoulder pads so not too be outdone by his kneecaps :D

Going to be using the forgeworld Ultra marine terminator shoulder pads worked with some green stuff

as for the shoulder/knee pad i think it workfs but how would you suggest it be made better ? could really use the input if you know how :)?

The forge world shoulder pad should look great when beefed up

 

I think for the knee pad maybe file off the trim so that it becomes recognizable as a shoulder pad? Might work.

Otherwise like i said before: fantastic work

Ah thanks 1Thor3 means allot, been really working hard these last few years for gw stuff. And hopefully i can do more models like this, next is project Dante wanna beef him up. But for now My smurf commander Magnus im gonna give your idea a go about filing the trim of the shoulder pad.

 

But as i say any other suggestions please feel free :)

Heck dont be sorry this keeps my creative work flowing and in awe huh lol thanks again XD.

Anyway took the advice abiout the knee pad got update pics here let me know whatcha think, aswell as ideas for the sword hilt? it need to look a lil more ornante?

 

I added a scale pic aswell just for kicks.

Aswell cloak wise are we thinking somthing like this aswell:-

Oh god guys sorry i forgot to mention hes gonn have a shield aswell on his bolter arm like a small storm shield liike a chapter champion has i ordered that from here i think these look great and very romanesque. http://www.maxmini.eu/store/index.php?main...;products_id=73

So whatcha guys think so far hopefully the shield will be coming in a day or so but i filed down the knee pad i think your right it does look better

 

 

Yea i think it does look better :) .

 

Shield is a great idea, but i have a feeling the cloak might look a bit too small ( with a bit of g-s it wold be fine though)

 

I can't really get a good look at the hilt, would it be possible to post an close up?

Well i made a mold of the cloak but im wondering if the cloak from the chaos terminator lord might look better and flow better what do you think?.

And i did a close up of the swords hilt aswell as a couple design sketechs for the sword hilt again let me know what works?. =]

Now that i look at it, I think its fine. but u need to file it a bit, i think

 

Um, That's difficult. Maybe use the chaos warrior one( the one suggested before by you) but I think you should just make it longer and it will look fine . the chaos lord one isn't very roman-y . But as always it up to you: the designer chose whatever looks best :D
