Master of fact Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I was up all night GSing and using some old projects and came up with the following, i can provide pics of indivdual parts if you like. http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z52/masteroffact/IMGP1743.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z52/masteroffact/IMGP1744.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z52/masteroffact/IMGP1745.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z52/masteroffact/IMGP1747.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z52/masteroffact/IMGP1748.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z52/masteroffact/IMGP1749.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z52/masteroffact/IMGP1750.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z52/masteroffact/IMGP1751.jpg I like the outcome so far, only i could not find any darkangel "angel's" from the ravenwing sprue :P Tell me what you like, dont like.

Skoby Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Wow that's amazing, only real criticism is that the cloak doesn't quite look right where it drapes over the angle of his armour, but then again its 100x better than I could do. I am seriously in awe at the detail you've done, I haven't got a clue how you would do the scroll work like that, I would say I want a tutorial on how it's done, but I know that even with a great tutorial I wouldn't be able to do it. Look forward to seeing it painted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adolpheal Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Very nice the only change I'd make is swap the figurehead for a DA version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 *Pick myself off the floor* Master of fact that is awesome work. You've made it look like a 'proper' purpose-designed sculpt – something that is very hard to pull off. Absolutely beauutiful GS work. The detailing and characterisation is pretty much spot on.

AL. Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Outstanding. Thats a fantastic depiction of a fantastic character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrible_Trygon Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 That's pretty decent press moulding work. Two points though; the tabard looks flat, which is unavoidable really, and the shoulder pads look inconsistent in size, though that might just be the angle.

Aerixis Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Awesome! I like the lightning claws, I used the space hulk ones for my Belial, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmaster damion Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 *flaps mouth inefectually for a few minutes* wow just wow I cannot adequately describe how amazing this looks and how well it captures the DA 'look' again amazing work edit learn2type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
commander alexander Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I dont quite like the kitchen apron look he has, but he is very well done. Are the raised emroderies on the tabard done with a wax mold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Mike Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Chinfloor..... I was absolutelt gobsmacked when I saw this, Very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twistinthunder Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 i like it, it kinda reminds me of scibors stuff (they make custom single miniatures) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This piece must be good for Terrible Trygon to say its "pretty decent"... I've never seen him use the word "amazing" yet <_< Which is what your piece is!!! Outstanding GSing skills there mate!

Master of fact Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 It is like scibor's stuff, i like the press mold stuff as it is alot eaiser for me than sculpting from an armature, however with press molding, some things look flat. I started with termi legs, body, arm's. Then i have pre-cut mold's that i measured (guessed the size ^_^ of the limb or armour plate. Im not making anymore of these as their my personal collection. Don't see why sell with the time put into it. I might make a tutorial though...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a sculptor, and I know how press moulding works. So I will probably never be impressed by this kind of work again. Still looks cool though.

Master Toddius Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Wow, really? Boo hoo press moulding is cheating... Whatev's, all that counts is the end product and this one looks awesome. I'm not going to buy a modern car because boohoo a robot faceted it together and thats cheating... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdeptusDavidus Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 It's an impressive piece, to be sure. I'm not necessarily quite as impressed with a press-mold approach as with a free-sculpted one, simply because while both methods are beyond my skills (or lack thereof), sculpting from armature is further still from my abilities. :) That in no way changes my opinion of this piece! It's very beautiful, and very impressive, and you should be quite proud of your work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Mordeus Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Ya ok, no offense but its been done before, not a fan of press molds, its allright, the cape is really well done, so cudos for that cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Toddius Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Its been done before? LOL ;) 99.9% of the models posted on this site have been done before... :P I think you guys are being strangely critical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Mordeus Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Sigh, you know what i mean the whole press technique. Im just bored of that look, it looks weird, flat, lacks flow, and every mini done this way looks the same. Sorry if this sounds harsh, its just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master of fact Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 Nah it's cool. Everyone has their opinion, if you like it great if you don't ok, but i know where you are coming from. I am working on proper sculpting, but have not found a putty i like just yet. Thank's for all the comments ( + and -) cheer's MoF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Lysander Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 I like it! The best parts are the shoulderpads. In agreement with past posts, the cape is the only problem, as it sort of lacks in fluidity. Other then that, beautiful piece! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
