malika666 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Nice htat you got recognition for this man! :lol: By the way, I alway thought that true scale marine models were sort of a big no-no for official GW events and such?

Doghouse Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 Cheers guys! ;) Malika: Not that I know of mate as they are still just converted marines. John Blanche and the design team came over to check the table out and no-one said anything about it as far as I know. A lot of the visitors hadn't come across them before and lots of questions were asked which was pretty cool. Anything that promotes truescale is a good thing in my book. Got to start on next year's team now which is more truescale marines, might go with Howling Griffons this time and spend far more time on them. I want them to be GD standard this time around rather than tabletop. In the meantime I'll be cracking on with the Chaos guys.

malika666 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I'm very curious how you will do the Nurgle and Slaanesh guys (if you will go that far into their corruption)! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217959-summoners-truescale-death-watch-marines/page/15/#findComment-2886538 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorns Padawan Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Niceone Doghouse, congrats to contributing to the winning team! Must have been a hell of a completed sight to see the whole thing come together. Started following the thread over on the AB, great stuff :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217959-summoners-truescale-death-watch-marines/page/15/#findComment-2886554 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted October 9, 2011 Author Share Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) Dorns padawan: Cheers mate, yeah it was a nice surprise as I never knew they gave out awards for the best club table. Trouble is that now we have to go one better for next year and I've already started my next top secret kill team contribution for the table, I rushed the DW guys and wasn't really happy with the end result by a long shot to be honest. This time I'm aiming for GD standard at least. Malika: I think I need to keep the corruption fairly low key otherwise it'll look like he'd infect everyone in the group. Stuff like rusted armour or small sores will probably be the way to go. With the DW guys out of the way I'm turning back to the chaos guys. I'm not overly keen on my truescale dreadnought so have decided to drag this guy out of retirement and have begun cleaning him up. He's an old truescale Furibundus or Fury pattern dreadnought that I have built from scratch using GS. Of late he's become a bit of a spare putty sculpt with me adding little bits with left over putty from over stuff I've been been working on but I have decided to give him my full attention to get him finished because I love the design of the model. http://i53.tinypic.com/2vt5v2a.jpg http://i55.tinypic.com/24nle1y.jpg Originally I was planning on using the Contemptor but to be honest it's too small for my needs. If you sort of half close your eyes and imagine it's just the marines torso and head in there then it might work but I don't think it works really. http://i56.tinypic.com/v3hok4.jpg http://i55.tinypic.com/14jyuyv.jpg And lastly I've dug out my old rhino sculpt I started many moons ago and am going to try and get that finished as well. I still need to sort out the wheels and tracks yet but will concentrate on the hull for now as it's a little rough in places. http://i54.tinypic.com/2s0jl01.jpg Edited October 9, 2011 by Doghouse Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217959-summoners-truescale-death-watch-marines/page/15/#findComment-2895803 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natanael Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 It's a little scary how you seem to be able to do anything in GS :) The dread looks fantastic, and huge, as does the rhino. - Nat Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217959-summoners-truescale-death-watch-marines/page/15/#findComment-2895836 Share on other sites More sharing options...
their kin Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I love what you're sculpting man. It's turning out great. I can't wait to see it all finished.

Studio Silvernale Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Isn't making a rhino out of GS more expensive than buying the plastic kit?

WeaponAdept Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 GW really need to take the truescale route if they want to keep making monies. VAST monies.

Doghouse Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Sorry just spotted the comments on this one. :P Russ Brother 92: Thanks mate. Working on some Night Lords to go with these guys at the moment so it is slowly coming together. :P Togusa-san: Mine's a lot cheaper than the plastic kit as it is sculpted over a frame that cost me pennies to make. ;) LostBritain: Totally agree. ^_^ Razblood: Thanks mate, he's coming along nicely at the moment so I should have an update soon. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/217959-summoners-truescale-death-watch-marines/page/15/#findComment-2944091 Share on other sites More sharing options...
