Legs and fist


Recommended Posts

Sometimes people just want parts instead of whole marines. This is one such occasion.

 

I was asked to make a fist and legs like those of the BlackHands captain, but without bionics.

Also the fist should sport a stormbolter which should be less blocky and somewhat concealed when compared to the first prototype of the BlackHands captain.

 

So it was that I started on the legs and fist by cutting them apart.

Then I added plates and rims (no in between photo’s, sorry)

The fist got a shaved clean and pinned and some plasticard was added to make the position as it should

And then got glued in the proper position and GS’ed to replace shaved off parts.

To do:

- Add stormbolter and curved armour plate (I’ve got a shield shaped plate ready for this)

- GS joints of the fist

- Re attach the cables the fist had

- Put the legs together

- Add rivets to rim

- GS joints

 

NeDlols, Do you have a specific chapter symbol? I might be able to do something with the sole of the feet (if it’s not to complicated that is)

Legs are riveted:

This time I didn't glue the rod on before filing, but in. I got me a set of 0,3-1.5 mm drills in steps of 0,05mm :P

The rods for the greaves are 0,65 mm so I used the 0,60mm drill for a snug fit.

It works very well although it is a bit more time consuming and less forgiving (no more shoving the rivet around for the perfect place. But in the long run it whould save time (no more rivets falling off etc.)

 

Legs will be attached somewhere soon and I'm still wokring on the fist

glad you like the progress, took longer than expected due to sickness and work, should be done quickly now, just the decoration that'll be troublesome as my etchings all fail, next weekend I get a new batch of high grade acid, so maybe it'll work then.

Else I'll have to skip them, sadly.

Anyway, any last term changes, ideas? tassles are in the works.

cheers,

Thats a shame to hear about the etching don't worry about it tho, a couple of purity seals to one of the legs would be more than enough as I plan to freehand most of the details in. The only change I'd like to the model is if you could rotate the bolter barrels so the holes are horizontal instead of vertical. :)

Your stuff always looks awesome. I think I know where NeD is coming from with the bolter barrels. If they were that way , the exhaust gasses would go into the top of the fingers, rather than away from the fist. really not a criticsim, more an observation. Always look forward to seeing more

I could do this to ultrafy the legs/fist:

Comes from a shoulderpad, if you like it, I'll glue it on.

 

cheers,

As good as done!

 

Anything to add? last minute changes?

 

Photo's aren't perfect, I'm not working with a normal camera right now, if you'd prefer to see better quality pictures you'll have to wait a bit until I get a new charger for my camera (hopefully this week).

 

I really like how the tabbard/tassel thingy worked out, took me 5 tries, but I really like the sense of movement it gives.

Some pictures:
