Biohazards WIP projects

[ElDuderino]

Everything looks great as usual. I'm especially impressed by the face mask on your brute, i've always hated that piece but you made it look great. Magic i guess.

 

Btw, where did you find demios' head?

 

Edit: Congrats on 1000 replies:)

Dorns Fist, you've pretty much wrote part of Malek 'Termie' Diemos' fluff right there haha. When I get around to writing his backstory I'll be sure to add a bit like that. :)

 

Skrundle87, Sounds like a solid plan mate. Go for it ;)

 

Elduderino, thanks buddy. That faceplate has to be one of my favourites as ive used it on 3 different Dreadnoughts now haha. I love the Defiler masks as with a little work they can be made to look really cool.

 

And a massive THANK YOU to everyone for the 1000 replies. :D

 

I'm looking for some suggestions/ideas now.

For my Gorehounds right arm I'm wanting to build an Ursus Claw such as is used by the Legio Audax in Betrayer. The rough mockup I have so far uses 4 Defiler claws but I'm not so sure about it. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how the Claws are meant to look? ADB I'm looking at you! (Clings to the hope that A-D-B actually reads this thread :D) I'll post a pic of my mock up soon and try and gather some opinions/feedback

 

Cheers

Craig

Hey buddy,

 

like I said on Dakka, amazing work!

 

As for the Ursus Claw, check out poom's Syrgalah conversion: He has the look down pat, if you ask me.

 

Funny coincidence, btw, since that same conversion inspired me to work on an Ursus Claw arm for one of my Dreadnoughts ;)

[Biohazard]

Yeah I've seen that mate and although it's a nice conversion I don't feel it's brutal enough. I'm wanting the weapon to be menacing enough that other Titan Princeps get the fear just by seeing an Audax machine on their auspex. Plus it looks a little delicate for the Gorehound. I'll have a play around with some bits soon.

[thamier]

hey biohazard , i feel very inspired by the warhound like model you built of bits, was wondeing if you mind if i tryed building one simelar?

[SincaiN]

Nice ... I hear ya. I did that about a year ago. Right now I have everything pretty organized and I try to keep up on it but oh how easy it is to lose track of those bits 8) 

 

I wasn't saying the Storm Bolter looked bad, just thought it could use a little more of something .. Yeah maybe belt might do it... could make it look very cool! You are a converting master so I'm sure whatever you throw together will be top notch 8)

[Biohazard]

Thamier, I wouldn't mind at all. I'd love to see what you come up with. Mine has been a labour of love and rebuilt several times due to a few little accidents.

 

Sincain, I'll have a play about and see what I can do with the storm bolter. As for the flattery, that'll get you everywhere sir haha

[Montuhotep]

I'll have a play around with some bits soon.

Put some barbs on the spear - barbed weapons always look nasty, or perhaps turn it into a trident. Or perhaps a barbed trident? Hmmmmm? Or more than one? Plus, barbed weapons are a Hell of a lot harder to pull out of the target.

[NightHunters]

Malek and the brute are really outstanding brother!

 

The storm bolter does look better now but I do also like the idea of a counts as ATD, almost spoilt for choice when it comes to naughty donkey power claw options!

 

But the hound, oh the hound is just amazeballs, a true labour of love, can't wait to see that bad boy finished chap!

[thamier]

thanks, atm while im painting for the tournament im listning to some horus heresy audiobooks and now i really want to build some titans, and some berserkers but it will have to wait a few weeks, in the mean time you should make some more stuff that will inspire us all, and on a side note i recomend reading/listning to betrayer book of the HH ;)

[Biohazard]

Paladin, I'm thinking of doing something like the old Trident from Epic. It's description is exactly the same as the Ursus claw.

 

Nighthunters. Thanks buddy, the Hound has indeed been a labour of love and I can now see the end of the road but there's just so many little things to do to finish it. I will get there but I learned a while ago not to spend too much time on it a I get bored with it. I find if I take a week or two off from the model I tend to get a lot more ideas to approach it with. :)

 

Thamier, looking forward to what you come up with. Just finished betrayer and since I'm reading/listening to the Heresy books all out of order I'm listening to Prospero burns at the moment when I'm working on my models. Nightshift this week so hobby times quite restricted but I'll be back with another update soon. :)

[SincaiN]

haha nice.. just giving props where it's due 8)

[Biohazard]

Thanks buddy. :)

 

After downloading the Dataslate: Helbrutes I've decided I want nay NEED to add a Helfist Murderpack to my army. :) I'll stick to the same style as my older Ven Dread based ones but I'm looking forward to coming up with an Alpha Helbrute. :) I'm not so sure how to arm the next 3 yet though.

[KrautScientist]

Maybe you should make use of all the weapon options in the Ven Dread kit? Building all these (exchangeable) weapons or adapting them for use on my chaos dreads was such fun! I can only recommend it (plus you can choose which weapon to use based on the game at hand).

[Biohazard]

I don't really care about the rules of the Murderpack but I think the idea of a group of rabid Brutes fits the fluff of my army perfectly. I've also decided the large flyer and te Storm Lord will be folded into another project.

 

Kraut, Voorhees is able to take all the shooty options. I just need I build a Reaper for him.

I have a couple of ideas for a thunder hammer not sure how Ill adapt the scourge. Valerius the Eldar will be repurposed for use in the XIIth My imperial marines are a no go so I may as well put him to work. :)

 

Valerius the Eldar will be the first to turn to the Blood God. :)

[KrautScientist]

Ah, I didn't remember that part about Voorhees -- that's taken care of, then ;)

As for the scourge, I've seen several conversions using the lasher tendrils from the Maulerfiend kit to make a power scourge: It might take some cutting, but it could certainly work!

 

And when it comes to the Alpha Helbrute: I'm not trying to push you or anything, but that recent DV Helbrute conversion of yours is a perfect Alpha Brute, if ever there was one...

 

Looking forward to seeing Valerius suitably desecrated -- you may want to change the facemask for something else, lest he looks too similar to Krueger the Undying.

[Greyall]

Sometimes a conversion feels like a whole figure. Your Malek is one of those cases, it just goes together perfectly. Awesome work. Apply colors urgently

[Biohazard]

Thanks guys.

 

Kraut, I'll play around, I may have an idea for an alternate scourge. Hmm. As for Valerius' corruption I will be altering the faceplate and possibly using the screaming Defiler mask (with a few alterations) I just know I had him languishing in a bits box as the urge to build/paint the Phantoms left me a while ago.

 

As for the Alpha, I will be using a different model but I've started to plan it in my head now so you will just have to wait and see ;)

 

Greyall, thank you so much for the kind words. I am really happy with how Deimos has turned out. Colour will be thrown at him in the hopefully near future. :)

[SincaiN]

Valerius the Eldar will be the first to turn to the Blood God.

 

That's no Eldar man 8) .. 

 

Looking good man, the motion being carried though the cloth and the lanterns really makes it looks like he's turning! 

[Biohazard]

Ha that's my bad! Elder!!

 

Thanks that's exactly what I wanted to convey. I wanted it to look like he was laying down a halestorm of rounds. The pose will remain the same but a few of the details will be changed up. I'll be adapting another face mask for him and the lanterns will be swapped for some chains etc. and obviously the assault cannon will be replaced with something inline with the Chaos dex.

[SincaiN]

I'm sure the update will look cool 8) Too bad though.. I love the assault cannon 8)

[Biohazard]

Yeah I quite like the look of the assault cannon as well but unfortunately the spiky boys can't take it. I do have the bits to make an Autocannon though. And a couple of other weapons already made. I'll hopefully get some work done on Valerius this weekend and I have started to gather parts for my Alpha Helbrute as well. Think along the same lines as the Nurgle brute but with zero mutation. ;)

[sockwithaticket]

Yes, Hellbrute conversions! As much as I dislike the fleshiness of Chaos Dreads now, I love your vehicle conversions. The skull face plate completely transforms everything.

[SincaiN]

The Assault Cannon is just a mean a$$ weapon .. 8) .. I understand but will be sad to see it go.

 

Nice, looking forward to seeing that one. I keep meaning to work on my Furioso Dread I've been wanting to convert but he always gets lost in the shuffle.. haha 

[deathspectersgt7]
