Terrible_Trygon Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 So I am going to join in a RP on a forum called Astronomican. I decided that I will be RPing as a pretty looking female Renegade Enginseer Tech Priest character. And as a break from the painting of the Inquisitorial Guard squad, I will be making her a model too. The plan is that the Tech Priestess model was going to be a beautiful woman, looking very handy and the kind of person which everyone would raise their head to. And I think I have achieved that 100%. Yesterday http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k156/Terrible_Trygon/DSCF0993.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k156/Terrible_Trygon/DSCF0988.jpg Today http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k156/Terrible_Trygon/DSCF0996.jpg http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k156/Terrible_Trygon/DSCF0999.jpg Isn't she a precious butterfly? Anyways, I still got some neatening up to do on the plates and arms, the head detail to be finished and then stick on some robes and paint. She is not a combatant character so won't have any weapons, though I reckon she would be pretty tough in a fight. And the head won't be painted as skin. It will have a lense on its forehead and act as a sensor array like the 'head' on a Dreadnought. What little biological matter remains of the Tech Priest herself is deep in the core of her mechanical body. There are other details and tidbits I want to add, but the character has a very simple design which I want to avoid over-crowding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferrus Manus Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Looks good. Any chance you can PM a link to this W40k RPing site? I've just been building my own, so it would be nice to see another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrible_Trygon Posted March 26, 2010 Author Share Posted March 26, 2010 It is not a RP site. I recently was involved with the creation of a General RP Board on this website, and this is one of the first new RPs to be created on it. Here is the link though; http://www.astronomican.com/forums/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Kovash Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Looks very nice. Did you make the head/face yourself, or did you get it from a sprue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 The head is from Hasslefree miniatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal Apostle Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Very nice work :) The chest reminds me of the sentinels from the Matrix ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan The Deamon Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 What is her specialty? Is she logic/information driven, or maybe combat or utility? I think she looks super neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Sasha Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 She has her father's eyes! Have you seen the Demon Musubi (I think) from the Lucifer graphic novels? Think Geisha meets scorpion. Please keep posting WiP pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrible_Trygon Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 What is her specialty? Is she logic/information driven, or maybe combat or utility? Her primary job is the maintenance of small Imperial Vessels, though she dwells deeply into cybernetics, which was what led to her downfall and excommunication from the Adeptus Mechanicus. She is basically a bit of a stereotypical mad scientist/Frankenstein type. Hence why I picked a face with a calm expression for her mask. Inspiration wise, she was based partially on the Safe Guard with BLAME! and this guy's floaty robot designs. Then I stuck on arms after eyeing my old school Genestealers. I got tons of them.

Midas Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 You should make the hands look more mechanical....... ahhh man I can't criticize without looking at my models and weeping. :) Good Job man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrible_Trygon Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 I intend to paint the hands a pale skin colour with the odd touch of metal, to represent stretched semi-organic material over bionic hands. It would make her look more creepy and would contrast the black arms. Plus, having skin on your hands means you have a little grip when it comes to picking up delicate tools and such.

Terminatorinhell Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 what about kinda detailing the arms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghosty Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Very nice scratch build, but at the moment she looks more Xeno and less Tech Priestess right now, far too organic even. Any hints as to how you're gonna tech the ol' gal up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Marshal Sigfeird Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Very cool Trygon! loving it how on earth did you capture the likeness of my motherinlaw :)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Morenze Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Mmmm-mmm. As a tech-head myself I can only compliment your work. Very nice touch with the serene features, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
