IronKobra Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 He needed a face lift, and since the new ironclad is plastic and kick-ass I decided to give this guy another shot! Had to do some conversion to build a Powerfist for the left side but I am really happy with the result. http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIP%20Blood%20Angels/WIPMoriar3.jpg http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIP%20Blood%20Angels/WIPMoriar2.jpg http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIP%20Blood%20Angels/WIPMoriar1.jpg These are still the pre paint stages, I will have some updates soon once I have gotten a little further in the paint job.

Frostbit3 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Looks great. I always thought the chain sword hand on the ironclad looked goofy. It's fantastic the way you have it though, and it looks like it belongs. Well done putting it together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronKobra Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 More recent pic, he is primed, most of the metal has been started, and the start if the red done with machrite. I intend to keep the whole model quite dark, brooding and imposing. http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorre Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 looks great so far!! Is that a forge world skull you've used on his chest ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnightmare Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Ahhh good old Moriar, looking good so far. Like the right handed DCCW how did you manage that, I may have to steal the idea if you tell us how to. Normally I don't like it on the Iron Clad but with two of them it looks well balenced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I don't like it on the Iron Clad but with two of them it looks well balenced haha, do I dare?! Its not so hard really, I think it's pretty obvious if you look closely. All you need to do is get hold of another Powerfist right arm, cut off the wrist so you have the flexi-armour type piece and the 'hand'. Cut off the chainfist on the left arm where the separation is, stick on the hand in its place. Nice simple but I think it looks RAD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronKobra Posted December 26, 2009 Author Share Posted December 26, 2009 Got a little more dont on this dude lately. Just getting base coats down but he is starting to get some character. http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar6.jpg http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar10.jpg http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar8.jpg http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar7.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostbit3 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 It's looking pretty sick so far. You chose a good blue to set off the black. Get some highlights on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronKobra Posted December 27, 2009 Author Share Posted December 27, 2009 Just for kicks I thought I would show my OLD Moriar, from way back when they first released the 'Furioso' pattern and put him next to my new and improved version: http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/MoriarOld2.jpg http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar7.jpg I am liking the change so far B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronKobra Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 Spent a little more time on this before I get to finishing my Vanguards, nice to break off and paint something different. Still getting lots of base coats down, but paid some attention to front sarcophagus details. http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar11.jpg http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar12.jpg He is still not stuck together, so the wonky smoke launcher will be straight once it's done and I am still deciding on a pose.

IronKobra Posted January 17, 2010 Author Share Posted January 17, 2010 Ok, just a small update now. I have mainly added some washes to his tabards and seals and also worked on the skulls around the model, working from graveyard, to desert yellow to bleached bone and then washed with sepia, and added a layer of shining gold to the sarcoughagus and washed again with sepia. Will highlight both again in the final stages. http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar14.jpg http://i847.photobucket.com/albums/ab36/IronKobra84/WIPMoriar15.jpg The pics are awful I know, just a phone cam and bad light today!
