Conversion Corner with Aerixis!


Aerixis

Recommended Posts

I know this is a works-in-progress board, but he's not painted yet so I figured he can go here!

 

This is a result of the 10 hour period I spent converting a better techmarine to feature as a Master of the Forge for my marine army.

 

I have a tutorial here of how I went about creating it!

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Part 4

 

Here's my Techmarine in all his glory!

Looks dramatic. Though I think the servo harness is WAY too big. Love the emotion captured in the miniature itself though.

 

It is certainly well done. But I agree, the servo harness is a bit excessive.

 

Yeah I agree it does look a bit large, but he's not a regular "Ohh there's a hole in my Rhino, come patch it up Bro!"

 

In my mind he is a Titan Techmarine, the larger servo arms are made to climb up a Titan, when they're not being used they are simply detached from the backpack.

 

I am planning more versions of this character but with more dramatic poses, like clinging to a piece of ruined building Doc-Ock style, one with the arms wrapped around him and him Kneeling down usin them as shields, and one actually clung on to a Titan!

 

They're gonna be awesome, but right now I've got a painting tutorial for everyone!

 

Check the Works in Progress forums!

love the ideas that've gone into this - great use of bits to create the arms/legs. the thing thats really caught my attention though it the use of the apothecary arm for the flamer! Genius idea for counts as vulkan conversions of which i will be making one of at some point.

 

looking forward to the other versions of this guy you say you want to make.

I think it looks very nice, and a well done conversion.

 

However I dont think it looks very Space Marine, I mean, it looks more like Dr. Octopus from spiderman was captured by Orks and 'modified'

 

Kudo's for making a cool looking model though :lol:
