ShinyRhino Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Not bad for a first attempt. I'm guessing you had only a hobby knife to work with, yes? One thign that will help you for future attempts is starting with smaller amounts of Greenstuff. It's far easier to fill in the gaps in the guns first, allow the GS to set, and then add smaller pieces later. For example, on the very last pic...maybe fill in the gap in the gun first, using a wet tool to smooth the GS out. Let it cure. Then use thin rolls of GS to get the general shape of the skull bulked out. Use a wet tool to sculpt the details. Allow that layer to cure. Finally, add the scuplted detail of the grille into the mouth area. Working in small additions allows you to achieve much finer details than pushing around a big blob of material. Keep at it!

jlmb_123 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 That bottom one is quite nice! I wish I had the guts to try GS'ing things. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Void Stalkers Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Thanks! ya All i have is a very dull hobbey knife right now... hrm.... I never thought of doing it by layers, when I get my next box of the buggers i will do that! i got another pic of that last guy, this time a close up of the shoulder and the next try next this guy is not one of my favorite, kind of a horrible job with the green stuff close up on weapon next this one was built out of a multimelta side there is a bolter under all of this GS side group shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drudge Dreadnought Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Looks like a good start. You know you can buy packs of 5 blasters and a blastmaster off the GW site though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Kase Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Actually, they have a slightly demonic/organic look to the weapons :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Void Stalkers Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 i was unaware that you could buy them of the website! does the organicness follow a slaaneshi theme very well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 does the organicness follow a slaaneshi theme very well? Â In my opinion, no. It looks more like Nurgle. Â Â It's great that you want to become better with Green Stuff, but building custom weapons could be more easily achieved by simply combining bitz or using plasticard.

Â True, it does have more of a bloated Nurgle feel, I tend to think of Slannesh being sleeker - though if it is painted up all fleshy and wet, could look more obliterator like.

Void Stalkers Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 hrm.... i was going ta paint them in a metalic color, but i think i will try the flesh first. Â I was also hoping to cut off some of the more bloated parts and (attempt) to sand it into a sleeker shape, i will post pics when i have gotten that done. Â I GS'ed the heck out of a squad of plague marines too (before hearing all your advice im afraid) Anyone interested in seeing them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Sure! If you are a beginner with Green Stuff, Nurgle is really the easiest way to practice. If it looks like a glob of mutated flesh, your good, even if you wanted it to be something different ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
