that is looking fantastic cant wait to see it with a rider!

[cathar the great]

Just do a google pciture search on "bear foot" you should find plenty of inspiration for the feet. It's always best to go from real life stuff

 

I like how this project is coming together, keep it up! ^^

[AL.]

[Capt. Lysander]

The mouth is sculpted really well: it looks detailed within it. Did you sculpt a tongue?

[1TH0R3]

Rider looks abit odd atm, but hopefully will be able to fix soon. I'm more happy with this fur.( Just takes ages :) )

 

C&C welcome

 

Cheers

[GI Joker]

Wow, that is some great GSing. I think it looks better with the armor, though.

[1TH0R3]

Thanks man, I did too but a local store manager and others( I also had doubts) brought up the problem that it didnt look 40k enough, so now Im thinking of a new version( more knight-ish?) but I've kept the molds for the old set.

 

Cheers

Was it Nathan who said that ?

[1TH0R3]

Wow, long time since I last posted, been busy with school, and my motorbike i bought for my 15th birthday :mellow:, but i have now a update:

But I decided I wasn't happy with the fur still looked to artificial and rigid, so now I'm trialing a new fur (pics up soon ?) that I'm going all out on. I'm quite happy with the armor though.

 

Triszin: Thanks for the link, maybe in the future if i get my standards up :rolleyes:

[Myxx]

Awesome! In the true sense of the word, it actually inspires awe!

[1TH0R3]

Hey, thanks :D hopefully i can get some pics of the new fur up tonight. I also just realized the rider may be sitting a bit to high? looks a bit off, what do you guys think?

[elohimalpha]

Really loving the model - the shaggier/clumped fur looks a lot better. The legs/waist seem like they're in the right position, but they're pretty vertical, which is great if you want the model sort of surveying the scene. I'd suggest tilting them slightly forward if the rider's "charging in to battle". The armor looks like a much better fit with the Marines. The old stuff was really nice too, but a bit off aesthetically. I did like the chainmail on the old model; if you could work it in to the legs or belly, that'd look great - if not, no big deal; there's enough to see already.

 

What sort of decorations/trophies are you going to add? What kind of weapon will the rider use?

 

Again, really great work, very inspiring!
