Finn Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Hi all, This is the WIP on my test model for custom legion Disciples of blight (or maybe Grim Reapers of Cadaver). I'd appreciate any comments you might have :D So, basicly this is what the paint scheme is going to be like: http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad53/bkubera/chaosman2.jpg This is the CSM with his powerpack on, but the powerpack still needs a few stages of shading and highlights. This guy is going to be holding a scythe in both his hands, so he's a close combat guy. This is why he's covered in blood so much: http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad53/bkubera/ludek.jpg Let me know what you think! Cheers, Finn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Wow. Now that, sir, is amazing! It's really well painted and I love the added blood, looks very realistic. Also, the eye glow is really well done! :tu: I await more! :D Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted September 15, 2010 Author Share Posted September 15, 2010 Thanks for the comment! Right now I'm wondering what kind of bases I should give these guys. The blood is nothing special - it's just Tamiya Clear Red paint stippled on the model :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 For the base, I would suggest maybe sand with dead grass? It would go with the "death" feel of your model IMO. Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted September 15, 2010 Author Share Posted September 15, 2010 Good suggestion, but I'm thinking of something a little bit more elaborate, like bloodied rocks mixed with rotting, severed heads :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 Not much progress - I made a base which I am going to cast in resin in several copies for other minis, too. This is what i came up with: http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad53/bkubera/Beznazwy1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavier Targhost Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Looks nice and a cool idea there mate :) Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 Naturally, there will be other patterns of bases to cast. I don't want each model to have exactly the same base. At the moment I'm pretty sure the loyalist corpse on the base will be an Ultramarine. Always. I hate Smurfs ^_^ However, aesthetic matters (colors mostly) may force me to change the chapter :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Very nice base :) Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthgus Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Yeah I to am loving that base. The mini looks good too, but I'd like to see it complete before I judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 Hi All, I've been working on the scythe design. This is what I came up with, but i think I'll add some green stuff to blend the parts. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad53/bkubera/scythe.jpg I'm making my own, because I'll need LOTS of these. Casting is cheaper than buying bits :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Looks good! :lol: I can't wait to see a whole squad of these :) Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Also a fan of the blood effect, though I'm curious how it will look after varnish...hm. Interesting scythe you've whipped up there too. It does indeed look a bit plain, maybe a guitar cable or the usual "now-it's-a-SCI-FI-weapon!" tricks couldn't hurt. Might also be good to make a few different versions and cast them, just like the bases. A little variety goes a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
