Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Thanks Nat. The legs are no where near finished and I've only just built the basic structure. Glad you like Russ :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine God Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Thanks Nat. The legs are no where near finished and I've only just built the basic structure. Glad you like Russ :lol: Good post! As has been said many times the legs are too thin, even now after the Big Bird start he is still lookong like an Urban-Mech! I would suggest looking at a retailer/site with better 28mm proportions. Hail to Russ brother of Ferrus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Still have a lot to do especially on the legs. As I said before I'm working on getting the shape right before adding any real detail. http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh132/Mjolnir81/IMAG0198-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysteriousmaskedmystery Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 i think that horus looks like he is about the right proportions, but his terminator armor is so hefty, it's like he's got a barn strapped to his shoulders. but he looks much better with some of it molded into shape, a little less like he's wearing a barrel. i kind of like the massive size of his torso armor compared to his arms and legs, it reminds me of some 40k art work that i liked as well.

Lykos Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 He looks like we is coming along good proportion wise but i would change were his head is at. His head is to far forward and the u shaped collar should be set in more on the armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Legs are starting to get bulked up. http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh132/Mjolnir81/IMAG0203.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natanael Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Now we're talking =) Looking better. However, I think you should have a look at his anatomy. His upper legs (dunno the word in english) are kinda thin and placed too far apart. Even with the armour there should not be such a large gap between the legs. Especially not with the armour. I take it you're gonna bulk them out, but yeah. Right now the proportions of body-legs are kinda off, and the size of the legs is also an issue, IMO. That said - I think you're going great with the overall structure. He's gonna look great when done! - Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 In english you can say upper legs, thighs, are in this case since they're bigger than I am tall, you can say thunder thighs. Because there is no way his steps are not going to go "boom". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 Worked on the collar area, chest, legs and starting the basic loin cloth bit. Still have to add Milliput to legs so that they are smoother. http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh132/Mjolnir81/IMAG0218.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death given form Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Most definitely looking better! Although I'm not sure if it's the angle you're holding him at, but it looks like the top of his carapace might be at a wonky angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natanael Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Looks better, but tbh I think that is mostly because of how you have covered the groin-area. I hope you dont think I am just beeing a turd, but I think you're doing such a good job that I wanna help with what I can... Anyway; if you look at it, I think the legs are a bit too long compared to the body. If you measue (counting on the fact that his proportions are normal) he would probably have his feet somewere halfway down the lower legs. Might not be that big of an issue. I made some measuring on my TS-guys and some other models, and if you make the loin cloth a bit larger around the groin, he'll look good, since it will be hard to see were the legs meet the body. BUT! Great work so far! Much better then my pathetic attempts at doing Russ :) - Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks great, but if you look at the distance between the top of his knee and his belt... It's the same (if not further) than from the belt to the top of his head.... Not quite on the money if you look at real life anatomy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 I've been finding it hard to find time to work on this guy but here is latest progress - still very much work in progress. http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh132/Mjolnir81/IMAG0250.jpg http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh132/Mjolnir81/IMAG0249.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 I know I should wait till I have finished the basic armour and bulkde out the arms but I couldn't resist adding a few details: http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh132/Mjolnir81/IMAG0252.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungWolf Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 He looks awesome but I think you should use a other wolfs head. I would use the one from the wolf guard cloak instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grotsmasha Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I'd pay good money for a cast of that.....seriously. Totally awesome, and coming along quite quickly to a high standard, well done! The finished item will be epic!! Cheers, Jono Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 Thanks for the comments guys - good and bad. It's helped me stay motivated and produce a better model.

Natanael Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Wow... I dont get how you make it work with all that plasticard. I got some and tried to use it, but I can't seem to get such nice shapes as you do for anything. Well, good job anyway! - Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
