Aerixis Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 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! http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/1.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/2.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/3.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/4.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/5.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/6.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/7.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/8.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/9.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/10.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/11.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/12.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/13.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/14.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/15.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/16.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h167/aerixis/bctech/finished/17.jpg Lemme know what you think guys!

Skambankt Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 :P You my good man, are nuts. Simply Awesome.... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/192579-conversion-corner-with-aerixis/#findComment-2286515 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innus Bade 9 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Looks dramatic. Though I think the servo harness is WAY too big. Love the emotion captured in the miniature itself though.

FIST_OF_DORN Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 That my friend is one awesome conversion. :) Can't begin to say how impressed I am, any more painted shots?

Drudge Dreadnought Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 It is certainly well done. But I agree, the servo harness is a bit excessive.

sword brethren Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 nowhere near excessive, i love it!! you have inspired me for some techy oblits :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/192579-conversion-corner-with-aerixis/#findComment-2286710 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerixis Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 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!

lhg033 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 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. lhg033 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/192579-conversion-corner-with-aerixis/#findComment-2286721 Share on other sites More sharing options...
J!MM!L!C!OUS Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 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: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/192579-conversion-corner-with-aerixis/#findComment-2286746 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Martemis Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 that is fantastic, i like the size of the arms, he looks like he could fit an exhaust to a land raider, or even lift the engine block, lol. looking forward to any updates...

WingsOfTheFalcon Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Yes it is over the top, but then so is a lot of stuff in 40k!

Now hit it with a brush! :angry: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/192579-conversion-corner-with-aerixis/#findComment-2287361 Share on other sites More sharing options...
