Im really not a fan of the power fist based claws on power armoured models, i wanted a slimmed down version that looks cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrum Vinco Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I understand what you mean about the powerfist sized lightning claws being too big. Also the shape of them are just wrong fluff wise. But yours seem to have the opposite problem. Were is the power generater how do the claws slide back into a sheath? No offense, but those claws looked like he snapped off a couple of blades and glude them to his guantlets. Thats just how it looks to me. (can I have another pic of the pack at a diffrent angle?)

Valkyrion Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 It's just a bit static for me for a jump pack model. Thats just personal taste though. I assume he's going to end up the lighter blue on his leg? Because all the details are top notch and he'll look mint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because all the details are top notch and he'll look mint. being static was an issue for me, but i really like the model so went with it anyway, not every model has to appear like a snap shot from rambo movie, they do stop slicing at some point :lol: the rest of him will be a lighter blue, ill be using less enchanted blue and more ultramarines blue on the rest as im experimenting with an imaginary light source so to speak, still trying to get all the highlights right. im currently using 4 different shades of blue can I have another pic of the pack at a diffrent angle? Ill try to get some different angles some time this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I tried to convert my Vanguard Veterans, the terminator claws looked kind of oversized and wrong. Still, nice work. I've been lurking in the shadows and watching the progress of your scout army, I admit. :) I like your work. ;) Snorri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicMan Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Nice work dude, i really like how you pulled off the lightning claws. Never been a huge fan of the bear hands myself, either. One question, is that a smoke launcher on his jump pack..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted May 2, 2011 Author Share Posted May 2, 2011 One question, is that a smoke launcher on his jump pack..? it was shrikes jump pack, i think they reprisent his offensive/defensive greandes.. he cant pull the pins with his big bear hands :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 the claws and jump pack are too small The claws are not to small, I hate those powerfist with punch daggers. looks redicoulous on a power armour marine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retributis Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Plus they've never made much sense to me... a powerfist strikes last and doubles the strength but a powerfist WITH FOUR FOOT LONG CLAWS ON is faster but less powerful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatMan Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Painting is solid but I really like those lightning claws, they actually look somewhat practical, in a 40K sense. And as for the supposed “static” pose, it’s just the calm before the storm, why does every single marine have to be posed as in the middle of combat? I really like this model, has lots of character!

greatcrusade08 Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 thanks chaps.. the big hands was the reason for the chage, if you look at the side views, youll see the claws are about the length of his fore-arm.. those should be very practical for slicing and dicing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
