DAMN YOUR FRIKIN EYES!!!! :) THATS GENIUS!!!! B) I want one now!

 

One thought has occurred to me btw, it nothing important just a way to make it look different if you do another one seeing as it would be hard to change now. But what if it had BALROG wings rather than Dragon ones? Just a thought not an order.

 

 

ha ha thanks :)

 

the balrog wings came to mind when i saw them but i had already order the dragon wings and i wasnt sure if they were metal or plastic and i really didnt want to be hassled by metal wings when it came to it (have a chat with captain malachi he will tell you all about trouble with metal wings :P )

 

thanks again bloodhowl

balrog wings are plastic for future knowledge.

 

ill remember that thanks ;)

 

ps you any idea how good milliput is for building the base/skeleton of a model (it's the best putty i can get easily)?

 

sorry no idea i have never used the stuff, im more of a kitbasher, until this.

This is not meant to be rude but it would help us to C&C if you could take some 360 pics (ie front back and both sides). It's difficult to get see much from the current pics of the finished model.

 

Thought for the day: Who shoots the cowardly commissar? (I'm serious on this. Who shoots him/her???)

it still needs a base but other than that i feel its done

better? :mellow:

i really like this peice, very worthy of my first post ;)

 

you can see the dreadnaught parts being overwhelmed by chaos, any background for this guy?

 

welcome to the B&C im honoured to have your first post :D

 

thanks alot for the comment, i dont have any solid background yet but the idea is....

1. chaplain sows seeds of heresy in recruits

2. starts recruiting current battle brothers to the cause

3. eventually have most of 1st 3rd 4th 8th and scout companys on his side

4. expands numbers by asking more and more company commanders

5. he is reported to the grand master by a commander

6 chapter tears it self apart

7. grand master challenges chaplain to a one on one fight after slaughtering 2 renegade commanders ( 4th & 8th)

8. mid fight grand master starts becoming overwheled with fury in battle and lusts blood

9. turns out chaplain recruited him many centurys ago and sewed heresy into him

10. grand master falls and is mortally wounded

11. most of 1st 4th ans 3rd survive fight ( all loyal comapnys and 8th destroyed) scout company also survive

12. master to injured for a dreadnaught but the chaplain has it done anyway

13. after being inserted into the sarcothagus, the room shakes, mechanical parts start forming on it as does daemonic flesh

14. master is reborn of daemonic powers.

15. chaplain has scout company trained and suited up while they still have the resources to do so

 

thats the jist of what happened to the chapter

oohhhh very nice, i love the idea of his raw power bringing the parts to make himself!

 

yeah thats what i had in mind :D

 

modelling wise i think its done, you wouldnt want to spoil it by overdoing it, just a beautiful paint job me thinks

 

ok ill bear that in mind, anybody else have any modelling ideas or do you think it may add to much to it?

 

thanks

By now I must be sounding picky and a pain in the arse but I dont mean to-I just want this model to look as good as it can for you.

There are 3 things i think need tidied up (but if you like it you dont need to):

 

1. The 'belly' could do with being fused to the sarcophagus (to me it looks like the top of it sticks out),

2. Just to emphasize the daemonic nature, at the base of the wings maybe have (green stuff) flesh growing out over the metal or have (plasticard) ruptured metal as if the wings have burst out from within the sarcophagus,

3. The lower back/ass still looks to bare to me, maybe have some (or one) armor platings fused into the flesh (like on the soul grinder torso).

 

I know I'm soundin like a pain in the arse but I just want you to have a spectacular model when finished.

Evening ponder: What really happened when Fulgrim and Ferrus Manus first met...

 

Ferrus- YOU! What are you doing in my forge?

Fulgrim- I am the mighty Primarch Fulgrim, I am a master in the arts of forging weapons. Who are you?

Ferrus- I am the mighty Primarch Ferrus Manus, I too am a master in the forge.

Fulgrim- Prove it. Lets see who can make the best weapon.

Ferrus- Deal.

 

Both Primarchs- *CLANG BASH SMASH BOFF*

 

Many months later...

 

Fulgrim- I have created the finest hammer in the Imperium.

Ferrus- I have created the finest sword in the Imperium.

 

*pause*

 

Fulrim- YOUR SWORD IS SO SHINY!!!

Ferrus- YOUR HAMMER IS SO SMASHY!!!

 

Fulgrim and Ferrus- SWAPSIES!!!!

 

Thus began a great (but short) friendship. (and yes over 100 years is short in 40k terms)

 

(This last bit was longer than intended but who cares, it's funny :D )

i agree with the arms to but im happy with it and i dont think khorne would mind if he kicked somebodys head onto the throne of skulls :D

 

 

2. Just to emphasize the daemonic nature, at the base of the wings maybe have (green stuff) flesh growing out over the metal or have (plasticard) ruptured metal as if the wings have burst out from within the sarcophagus....

 

this is an idea i love and will be doing, i just ordered some plasticard, i will also greensuff flesh to make the "body" look more fused to the sarcothagus.

 

thanks for the comments guys and your not being a pain bloodhowl, you have been a loyal help and i thank you

i also really like the wings idea but i have no idea how you are gonna do it

 

i disagree with fusing the sarcoagus to the belly bit as it will look like it has grown on top and not burst from the centre and grown wires and pipes like it does now, just my opinion though.

 

i like the amrs length, its about right, considering his hand is on one side a flail and a chainfist on th other they come down to the right place.

 

just thought i think you should tech up the left arm a bit to show he is a daemon machine mix like on the legs.

 

im loving this and really wanna see what you so, either way it will look great

thanks man.

 

i agree with the amrs thing as thats what i thought when i made them.

 

what do you mean by tech it up a bit, wires or armour or...?

 

ok well ill leave the fusing until i have more opinions then.

 

thanks storm :P

Not doing the head flail thing then? :lol:

Kidding, I think it looks awesome as it is :) the plasticard fragments that will show the wings bursting out should def be set in some gs flesh, as any loose bits would have fallen off by now, but chunks would still be wedged in his tortured musculature :) An idea for the weapons (I know I am skipping ahead to the detailing stage, but if I don't type this now I will forget it :P ) is to use a techniques I saw on the GW website. In the 'Eavy Metal masterclass article on painting Harry The Hammer, one of the guys added a length of hair which he had coated with superglue and made it straight, then coated it with red tinted superglue, letting a drop form and set at the end, on it to the weapon, so as to look like a drip of gore. Maybe you could use that on the flails? Set at slight angle to emphasise the movement. or would this be stupid and impracticle?

thanks guys it means alot :mellow:

 

i sort of see what you mean Guyver but im not sure, do you have a link or an example because it does sound good

 

ive been talking to friedns about the sarcothagus and they agree with storm, sorry bloodhowl :P

 

thanks for all your support so far, if you have any advise or idea, keep them coming :)

yay you agreed with me <_<

 

by tech it up i mean a few more wires, maybe some pistons bulging from the muscle so it looks like the metal just burst out and grew a daemonic influence!

 

hope this helps

 

any help is welcome :P

 

i may just do that with the wires but i feel that the piston thing may be a bit hard to do, and it may take away from the daemony part of it to, thanks for the idea though :angry:

Sorry I didn't link, my work comp is so slow :down:

s'alrite, you should see the ones at my collage, IT and computing specialist college my Ar... bum.

 

i really like it as an effect, it looks very kool, not sure about it on the flail as it would be complicated to coat all of them but i may try with thechainfist arm because that is avery nice effect ( as nice a dripping and cojealing blood gets)

 

thanks for the idea :unsure:

I really like everything to date. I think it still need more musculature. The left arm looks good, but I think the rest needs bulking up a bit. The legs look good, but are a bit long and thin.

 

The torso looks great.
