Logan_the_Grim Posted June 30, 2013 Author Share Posted June 30, 2013 Added the leather strap like things on the arms and torso. Completed the shin detailing. Awaiting a High Elf dragon head to complete the flamer nozzle. In the meantime will try to figure how to make a decent looking top knot using some fake hair extensions and hairspray.

Logan_the_Grim Posted June 30, 2013 Author Share Posted June 30, 2013 Added some terminator leg-like details on the sides of the legs. Copied straight from the artwork. Not sure if it makes the legs too big though. Used green stuff for the tubes (made using a tentacle maker) since it is more bendy than quickwood (the flesh coloured epoxy). A friend offered a spare body from the Chaos spawn kit for the base. I will incorporate that when I get it. Another friend offered a spare high elf dragon head which I can use on the incinerator nozzle. The end is in sight... just have to wait a bit longer. Then it will be time to make the second NDK.

Logan_the_Grim Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 Added some hair for the top knot. Found some fake hair highlights at the department store and shaped it using Elmer's glue to get a nice flowing in the wind look, John Woo-style Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242106-my-adeptus-custodes-gk-counts-as/page/3/#findComment-3404736 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan_the_Grim Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 Been busy with other projects (like my DIY indoor spray booth and IG artillery (a Basilisk and Colossus), which you can see on my FB page), but I finally had some time to start building my second NDK. I decided to start from the bottom this time.

Logan_the_Grim Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 Actually... I can't sculpt, really I can't.. Most of the details there are from a variety of sources and recreated using instant-mold and epoxy putty.

Logan_the_Grim Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 Started working on the torso section of NDK 2. Will add a bit more girth to this guy. He seems a little too .. fit.

Dosjetka Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 You are quite mad. Funnily enough, I mean that as a compliment and I admire your plethora of skills. I can't wait to see the second NDK built and both painted :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242106-my-adeptus-custodes-gk-counts-as/page/3/#findComment-3487336 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan_the_Grim Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 Side by side with NDK 1 Casted some new shoulder pads for NDK 2. I needed to actually cast a PVC pipe to do it since a real pipe is too hard to cut to the appropriate shape. Shoulder pads in place. I liked the pads so much I casted a second set and I decided to change the shoulder pads of the first NDK to the new ones. Looks much better.

Logan_the_Grim Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share Posted October 9, 2013 Added the eagle detail on top of the "hood" along with some other details like the sensors. Rivets are now in place in the torso and shoulder pads.

Dosjetka Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I can't figure out how this just isn't generating comments, this is just awesome. I think you'd be better off posting updates in the WIP section of the forum. You'd definitely get more response from people!

Dosjetka Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Really?

One-eye Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 How have I missed this awesome thread ?! I can only second the advice of putting a thread in the WiP section, as people usually wander there and a lot less often here. Your minis are stunning, and especially the 2 DK that are extraordinary projects. Can't wait to see more, keep up !
