cathar the great Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 OKay guys I got some bad news :drool: : I think this project is over, The bear is too big( like some one pointed out before :turned: ). I finally got some standard power armored legs today and there tiny, like really TINY. I'm still planning on finishing the bear, just don't know if its worth casting any more I'll post whats been done so far later tonight. I think you're giving up too fast. Look at the wolf on one of the first pages in the Wolves codex. It's also huge in comparison to the marine sitting on it. At least finish this one and maybe put a Lord in Terminator armor on it. That should be massive enough to fit. You can still use it as a display center piece of your army and in friendly games. Or as a counts-as Canis.

High Marshal Sigfeird Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 MY FRIEND NO LISTEN TO THE BRAVE CRIES OF YOUR BROTHERS!!!. This model deserves to be finished, you have a few options open too you, either the terminator lord riding this mighty beast, or my idea based on the thunder fire cannon, but mounted on the bears back, dont give in all this work will be worth the end result.

siacci 1 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I told you it was to big before and pity you couldn't find any in the catologue :) :geek: :wub: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extartius Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I told you it was to big before and pity you couldn't find any in the catologue :P :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Helpful, that. I will echo what the other (more positive) people have said and urge you to persevere. Once you've got a marine saddled onto it I'm sure it will look awesome.

1TH0R3 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 Cheers guys thanks for all the support and positive comments, it means heaps to me. I PROMISE to post new pics tonight (just the bear, still havn't started rider yet). My solution to the rider-to-small problem was simply make the rider bigger, the mock-up looked much better now.

Doghouse Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 He's looking brilliant mate! Don't give up on him, what you have to remember is a fully armoured marine is probably going to weigh some around a ton so he's going to have to be big to support the weight and some fenrisian wolves are quoted as being up to the size of a Rhino apc. Chuck up a scale shot with a regular marine mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the jimster Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I agree with Doghouse the bear is looking great and loving the armour very detailed and a scaled shot would be great :-) but dont give up on him as looks fantastic Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible_Trygon Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 I would have the straps under the armour plates. Having them over ruins the press mould armour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1TH0R3 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 okay thanks T.T , Im gonna try that cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr tough guy Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Like the armour even if it does remind me of the work of Scibor, in fact the entire project reminds me a lot of this guy: http://www.sciborminiatures.com/pow.php?ab...war_king_02.jpg though your's looks more like a bear then Scibors which as someone pointed out to me resembles a giant sloth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1TH0R3 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 bollocks, I guess that means im gonna get accused of stealing now ;). That bear looks cool though imo. Yeah a friend told me about the press molding armor, and I thought it was a great idea thanks though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Mate that looks fantastic! :) Size wise it looks great, run the straps under the armour and it'll be brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Don't worry too much about people accusing you of copying. Nothing wrong with being inspired by great work. The armor looks great so far, though I'm with Trygon on the armor straps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SquigBait Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 That is incredible work! Most of my conversion work is done with plasticard... Things of an organic nature are not my forte'. Keep it going, I really want to see the final product on this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Brother Sargent Tiberius- Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 I like how your making the armor! The xenos looks like its about to be eaten... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
