Lord_Azoth Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Hi all, I´m a totally newbie to 40k world so any help will be much appreciated. I´m starting a SW army, I always liked their look and story but never decided... now the new SW sprues decided for me... I´ll post my list in the proper forum http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=192859 , but by the moment these are my little progresses with the army , some sketches of the units prior the final look.. I´m sorry for the fluff purist so that I´m going to make my army a little aside of the GW standar, I´ll make my wolvies look as I want :P ... 1st sketch, a blood claw, they are the young bloods so they will look fierce and savages, all without beard, CaC wepon and pistol. http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/561/dscn1790.jpg http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/5011/dscn1792z.jpg http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/9878/dscn1791.jpg In this 1st version only have used a shoulder pad, does he look fine to you? 2nd version, big shoulder pad for the rear arm and a mini shoulder pad for the front one http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/2025/dscn1795v.jpg 3rd, 2 shoulderpad...the worst of them IMO the shoulder pad hides the arm http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/4563/dscn1793la.jpg I´ve drilled the pistol, I saw it in many forums and think it´s worth C&C will be appreciated, thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronDuke Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Some very nice concepts here! For the first one I really like the look of number 2, with the small front shoulderpad and bigger back pad. The second blood claw looks like he may be leaning a little bit too far forward, almost as though he is tripping up, even if it is tripping up into the enemies face with his axe. The third guy is just awesome, really nice pose and combination of bits. As these are only tacked together I assume you haven't finished tidying them up yet? There seems to be some big mold lines etc, and on the third guy you may want to get rid of the khornate symbol on his belt buckle. Cheers, ID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, ID you are totally right, for the time being they are only sketches to select bits and poses... all mold lines, chaos symbols (have some bitz from bersekers etc.) willbe removed... Looking again the photos, think I´m gonna swap torsos between the 2nd and 3rd one, the wolf pelt in legs fits better the standing model rather than the running one... do you agree?

Lord_Azoth Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 1 more to the pack... a raging fury charging http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/2671/dscn1808q.jpg http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/3613/dscn1810.jpg http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/6223/dscn1809o.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Lord Captain Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I really like these guys. Proper Space Vikings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormDragon Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Very nice looking Blood Claws you've got there. I think you've really captured the reckless headstrong nature of them that GW describes with those poses. I prefer them with either one shoulder pad or with two normal sized pads, i'm not a great fan of the smaller shoulder pad. Maybe if he had two small shoulder pads... I agree with you that swaping the torsos of 2 and 3 will probably look better, although the wolf pelt may hit his leg and stop you twisting the torso enough to recreate the pose. Where are the weapons that the last one is carrying from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Azoth Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 Where are the weapons that the last one is carrying from? beastmen (gors) from WHFB, the ones from 6th editions although the new ones looks almost exactly the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dejay Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Some really nice poses there on the Wolves, although I'd say get rid of the mould lines, they will show up badly when they're painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenmichi Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I think you need to fix up your running poses a bit because they still look like they're tripping. I think the problem is the torso is situated too far forward, you need to keep the back a little more vertical. I know it sounds silly but try performing your poses yourself and photograph it from as many angles as you can get or look up photographs/watch medieval war movies. The parts and weapons you're using are spot on I'd just hate to see your work falter because your poses looked unrealistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Azoth Posted February 11, 2010 Author Share Posted February 11, 2010 thanks both, mould lines, khorne symbols etc will be removed before I glue properly all the parts..now they are only rough sketches. @Kenmichi: yes, you are right..the look almost horizonatl, the final pose will be more reallistic.... thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Azoth Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 has been a long time... but I´ve overcome mi addiction to Champions o line and use some of my time for modelling again... A nre rough sketch for my blood claw with flamer... I wanted to give him (as the rest of the army) a medieval and brutal look, so I added him this odd torch/fire source from the empire magician sprue... Probably once I set him up, I magnetize the flamer arm to make it interchangeable with any other special weapon for the unit.. Hope you like it (Remember he is an sketch, moulds lines, etc will be removed once he´s assembled) http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/754/dscn1836.jpg http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/4994/dscn1835fz.jpg http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/474/dscn1837m.jpg http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/2698/dscn1838tw.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monstra Sumus Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Is their Chapter Keep called Winterfell? ;) I'm not a fan of Viking In SPAAAAACE! but these models are pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starblayde Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Is their Chapter Keep called Winterfell? :wub: Take a drink every time we notice an ASOIAF reference? :rolleyes: Model poses and overall vision is looking very nice at this stage!

Kenmichi Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Wow, that newest guy is really good! Tilt the head back a little more so it looks like he's yelling up and out from his stomach, like he's trying to project himself more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monstra Sumus Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Is their Chapter Keep called Winterfell? :P Take a drink every time we notice an ASOIAF reference? ^_^ Model poses and overall vision is looking very nice at this stage! Haha, reference games involving alcohol are baaaaaaaaad, play the Zulu game with the film Zulu. Everytime you see a Zulu or hear someone say Zulu, you have to drink. It begets a meeeeeessy night. And I agree with Kenmichi, tilt the head back so he's screaming ' LANNISTAAAAAAH! ' :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denrik Greymane Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Great looking models, you seem to have captured the look of the wolves very well. Where is the head from the last guy found, is that part of the space wolves sprue? Or from somewhere else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_Azoth Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 another one...one more to go I think...

Lord_Azoth Posted April 20, 2010 Author Share Posted April 20, 2010 last (for now) BC for the unit of 8... maybe when I have a final list I´ll add some more.. http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/9126/dscn1858v.jpg http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/1764/dscn1861e.jpg http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/5120/dscn1863a.jpg Noe I have to convert the sketches in miniatures, all C&C would be appreciated while I "glue" all ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Flame Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Overall Great, I especially like the guy that gets to swap for powerfist looks very good and fluffy, I think with you're ideas you'll make great scouts to, my brother took a similar approach to his MOTW, the normal shoulder pads are slightly big for the flesh arms, but look good, maybe if they are filled down a bit, maybe like the scouts shoulder pad.
