Hyaenidae Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I've already sent Greyall a long, winding love note, but I'll say it here too: It's a dream come true. Phelan looks stunning, and Vall is perfectly drawn. All my admiration, Greyall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Very nice, although the guy on the left's hood is bothering me. It seems to be wrapped around an invisible thing behind his neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phelan looks stunning, and Vall is perfectly drawn. All my admiration, Greyall. There is no such thing as perfection. That's why the BnC needs appreciates tolerates people like me ;) His stature certainly fits your description, though. Barring the baby hands. Suppose it's better than an awkward crotch-dragon, though. :teehee: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivepointedstar Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I love the look of them. Like Army of Two meets 40K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SickSix Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Outstanding as always. The tiny hands are there. And I will agree that the kneeling figure has a lot more character but they still are both great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 There is no such thing as perfection. That's why the BnC needs appreciates tolerates people like me I think that depends on if your criticism was asked for, or simply foisted upon the unsuspecting. The big guy, Phelan Mahdra of Hyena's Iron Warriors, I already made the figure for. The other is my own character, Vall, who I don't have a figure for yet. I gave Greyall pics of Mahdra and a rough outline of Vall to see what he could come up with, and I think he did a great job on both. He went a completely different direction with the helmet than anything I had considered doing and I would like to see if I can replicate it, or come close. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 Time for a little personal project before getting on to Arkhan's boy: http://img09.deviantart.net/8c88/i/2015/181/7/1/clee_scar_mang___salamanders_centurion_by_greyall-d8zf3bm.jpg Clee Scar'mang, The Earthcarver My take on the Centurion suit, and an hommage to Christopher Lee. Hope you like it, guys. Now to draw an Outrider bike...you'll pay for that, Arkhan... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Sorta reminded me of a Megaman boss at first glance, for some reason. Maybe the pose or the big thigh...hm. :lol: Aside from the mouth grill, I'm not seeing anything that really bugs me. The grill just looks a tad off, most likely because of the tiny bit underneath being straight and level, while the rest curves upward. Doesn't seem like something that's technically wrong, just a bit confusing to my eye. It took me a second to realize the blank spot on the chest piece was flames. I thought the scales were just flaking off. Makes a lot more sense now that my brain caught up :teehee: Anyway, good use of negative space on the left leg, and a solid design over all. You've also got a knack for animals, and it's always fun to see that pop up. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherCaptainArkhan Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Someone, somewhere, has had a light bulb appear over their head with that image. I hope there's at least one effort to turn that into a model because it looks much better than the GW version. I did say at the time doing an Outrider bike would be a challenge ;) I'm sure you're up to it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Golem Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 If the actual models looked like that I'd be all over them. Really really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Visitor13 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 One of the best things about this awesome centurion is that he doesn't look like a centurion at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graymane Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Someone, somewhere, has had a light bulb appear over their head with that image. I hope there's at least one effort to turn that into a model because it looks much better than the GW version. Challenge accepted. Definitely had a lightbulb moment. It might take me a while though but ill definitely give it a go. Now, off to buy some centurions and see whats what... Outstanding picture. Very inspiring from modeling point of view and distinctly missing the clunkyness of the models which look like they might topple over domino style with once decent shove. Has certainly captured a certain air of suitably savage badassery. One approves. Cheers, Arg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivepointedstar Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 You know my love for all things draconic/ fire breathing lizards. So this one's superb. You've actually convinced me that the one set of models I do not have( Centurions) , I must get them just to attempt to make them as cool as this guy. At first I saw the left shoulder pad and it looks like a T-Rex and thought Devourer, but the Firedrake symbol swayed me to knowing it was a Salamander. Such a cool drawing :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 Beaucoup de thanks, my friends :) This is one of those that came out right the first time, and then I just had to fill in the blanks. Would that all were so easy :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 On one side, it looks badass. On the other, it looks more like a heavily altered Mk I Saturnyne, than a ...*retch*....Centurion. Whatev's. That helm is going into my 'To-Do' pile, I need to try to make that. :D Keep on keeping on, brother. Always a pleasure to see more of your work.

Slips Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I'm Surprised you chose Melta Guns on this suit instead of going all-in and giving him 2 Heavy Flamers so Salamanders it to the max! ...Then again, its not a legal option so I see why (even though they can take Normal Flamers but, who wants those?) Glad you got rid of the Power Mittens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 @Hyena: My goal was to make it more like a Mega-Power Armour and less like a completely new design, lack of design connection is something I miss in the current Centurions (though there are obvious clues to the suit's origin). @Slipstream: Those are Xy'zon-Pattern Melta Cannons. "Xy'zon" meaning - because I say so - "Horizon" in Nocturnean. As in, once you fire those, you see what's on the other side of the target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly it, he looks like an ancient, less common Termie variant, instead of the laughable pointlessness that is the Centurion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Looks good. Although the region behind the head looks a little flat to me.A little disappointed there is no crotch dragon though ;). Looks great and I would love to see it in 3d form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyall Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 You can be excited, if I manage to finish my plan for your chap. Challenging little thing... Of course there can be only one crotch dragon, it's one of Vulkan's artifacts. Though, for some reason, He'stan hás yet to claim it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
