Hyaenidae Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 Santa loves me! One set of Mk. V power armour, a set of 'phobos' pattern bolters, and lugft huron himself! I'm a little terrified, cuz the Forgeworld Huron is such a bad-asski model I don't really want to convert him,lol! But converted he will be...I now have the makings of the Marines Malevolent Lord Commander (Chapter Master). Also, I got Call of Duty: Black Ops...so my miniatures will probably be a little slower in the making, sorry. :devil: Edit: @Zincite: Bikes are on the way. I only have three on hand right now, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zxyogi Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 CooliO!!!! :) lugft huron,have had my eye on that minature for a while now and funnily enough.....Chapter Master would have been his title!!! Looking forward to see what you are planning!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Juan Juarez Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Also, I got Call of Duty: Black Ops...so my miniatures will probably be a little slower in the making, sorry.

Hyaenidae Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 @zxyogi: My only problem is that using Lugft as a counts-as generic Chapter Master seems...wrong. I'm thinking of casting his claw, and modifying it for his left arm too...meh, I'll come up with some better ideas when I get back home. @ Cpt. JJ@ I'm suprised to hear that, actually. I'm a sucker for multi-player, that's where I end up playing so long, I only realize it's morning cuz my living room gets brighter, lol. Anyhow, I also got Fallout 3, and that's a guarrenteed long game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zincite Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 These claws don't look nearly as good, but they do match. You could then put the original on a 'normal' terminator as a 'count-as' power fist... though that may be an insult on Lugtf Huron's model. http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_Custom...6_EMlordA2b.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GooseDaMoose Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 OooOoOohh! I'm looking forward to Lugft Huron-Chapter Master! :D :D :D :D Congrats on the mad cool christmas presents too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 As mentioned before, I recieved a shiny new box of Mk. V Plate for Christmas, and I am planning to break up the pieces across the rest of my army, buuuuut.....I couldn't resist doing at least one complete suit, unmodified and untouched. So, a WIP shot... I was gonna finish my scout squad, but I think I'm gonna wait until I pick up a LS Storm, primarily for all the extra goodies for said scouts. So, I'll work on the next couple of squads until the tax returns come in. Maybe I'll even fit in a bike... Happy new year!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hashshashin Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Everything looks great so far and I really like the look you've gotten with these guys it has a lot of character I'm interested to see what you do with these new FW bits. Great Job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brother varen Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Nicely done, brother. Can't wait to see what you have in mind for the Mk5 armours. Really wondering what you are going to do to Huron, lol. How has the brainstorming coming for fluff ideas? I've been scatter brained lately. Tried taking pictures of the custom parts that i had made and they are not coming out. I think it might be the camera, but it could be operator problems too, lol. It could be lighting also, don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GooseDaMoose Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Good lookin' fella right there. Btw I wish you the best of luck with converting Lugft Huron, I look forward to seeing how it goes. I got my first Forgeworld model the other day (Death Korps of Krieg Rough Rider, oh yeeeah) and the resin is incredibly brittle! I can't cut anything, it all just snaps off :( if it's going better with you, any advice would be appreciated! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a bad idea for me to save up for that DA Vendread that looks so cool then? B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 First Marine of 2nd squad complete in all his Mk. V awesomeness... and a WIP shot of the next two fellas... @everyone: thank you for all the comments. Y'all keep me motivated, seriously, lol. @Varen: I ain't gonna lie, I haven't worked much on the fluff. COD: Black Ops is eating my brain, lol. I got some ideas for the scouts/inductees, but they're half-formed ideas yet. I'll let you know, bro. @goose & Zincite: Oh god, definetly buy forgeworld if you got the cash, man! The difficulty of working with resin is totally offset by the level of detail you get. The trick is to be gentle. If you're shaving something, use the file softly. If you're using a razor like me, cut thin slices off at a time. If you look at the WIP pic above, the fella on the left has an arm from the Red Scorpions set. The sword was warped beyond use, but I gently cut away at the blade and handle until it was flush with the hand. Thin slices, bro. I cut the arm higher up by his armpit to twist the fist around like he's about to punch someone across the room. I cut all the way around the arm instead of just trying to chop clean through it. Slow steady rocking motions until the blade made it through. Just go slow, and it'll work out great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyaenidae Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 Lol, actually, if you look at the last squad, most of them are rockin' 2nd edition bolters. Sadly, I've almost run out of 'em. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brother varen Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Greeting brothers, Great work, heathens. I love the Mk5 look. I was planning to use the Mk5 armour for devastators due to the info on the armour type. That bolter on the Mk5 marine is totally awsome. Love the chain boynet. Just shot me the ideas when ready, heathens. I've been going back and forth on ideas that i really haven't got that far, lol. Talk about being scatter brained, lol.

Hyaenidae Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 Oh God, What have I done?!? I, 1000heathens of the Marines Malevolent, vow on the eternal hatred of my Crusade to paint and present at least a 10-Marine Tactical Squad, a Rhino, and a converted Venerable Dreadnought on or before the 31st of March, 2011. I promise to provide at least two WIP updates, preferably with pictures, in that time. I vow that if I should fail, I will provide the Librarium with an article and wear the Signature of Shame until my penitence period is done. Did I really just say that? Damn....I did.... :) Alright, my project is being re-organized now, to fit in with this vow. For starters, the Mk. V marine has been shifted to third squad, and the two WIP above are now a part of the vow. And I have to begin green-stuff work on the dread I've been putting off for a year. So, as proof that the 2 WIP guys have not gone above the '50% done' limit, I re-present them (unassembled), along with another WIP, the old man. I'm still not sure about the bearded head...opinions?

MagicMan Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I think the bearded head looks fine. Paint a scar over one eye and have that eye all white, and he'll look grizzled and angry, haha. And dude, the guy in the studded armour, orgasmic. Can't wait to see what you've got next. One thing i thought i could point out is that a bit of gloss varnish over the lenses could really make them look like glass, but i don't know if you have 'Ardcoat or whatever its called...
