Overdrive Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 A little progress: http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120227_134320.jpg http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120227_134338.jpg I haven't been able to find anything about gorechild having two lines of teeth. Even with the size of my version two lines of teeth would have been hard to fit. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Juan Juarez Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I don't know about Gorechild, but more "modern" chainswords supposedly have a second set of teeth that can be brought into use when fighting an armoured foe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Just seen this. Really great work, you've done a fantastic job of scaling him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overdrive Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Just seen this. Really great work, you've done a fantastic job of scaling him up. Some of the highest praise, you were one of the early pioneers on Tru-scaling that got me interested in it, so it means a lot. The armour is essentially done. I'll do some finally hi-lights once the rest of the model is finished. The style is a bit different but I'm really pleased with how it turned out. http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120228_142123-1.jpg Here is a shot of the progress on the legs to give an idea of the layering: http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/ArmorProgression.jpg Cheers.

blackbabyjesus Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 liking the layering on the armour, very Dezartfox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natanael Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I dont know. The armour looks like pre heresy/heresy era death guard to me. I'll have to wait and see the finished product. - Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overdrive Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 Finished the arm and shoulderpad: http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/FinishedArmShoulder.png I'll get some better pictures when the whole model is complete.

batu Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I love that white ! What colors are you using ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sceadwe Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Wow. Wow. Wow. Did I say wow? I love the pose, I'm imagining the finished model having a spray of gore arcing from Gorechild. Whirr, Crunch, Splatter. Quick question, I've always wondered how to use chain like this, do you use super glue to stiffen it or some other trick?

Overdrive Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 Sceadwe: I use superglue to harden the chain. You loose some degree of detail, but it dries quick and lets you arrange the chain how you want it without too much trouble. Batu: The armor is a combination of Khaki, Gryphonne Sepia wash and white in various layers Current progress: http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120302_200736.jpg http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120304_145345.jpg Still have to paint Gorechild, finish the vent on the chest and a few other little details. Then figure out what I'm going to do about weathering/battle damage and a base. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 He's looking great! The painting is excellent. The flesh tones in particular, and I'm looking forward to seeing how his armour turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MordentHex Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I know its probably a bit to late to mention this but his arm seems to be to long. shortening it a little at the forearm would make the arm look more natural instead of a gorilla arm.

Redemption2994 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Incredible. Both Khorne and Angron would be proud. I especially love the enlarged Gorechild. Beautiful work good sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly_bear Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Fantastic painting, I've been toying the idea of making a squad from each of the pre heresy legions for a while, think you might of edged that on. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overdrive Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 I started a new project now that Khârn is nearing completion. I'm trying to base it size wise off the Khârn I've built. http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120305_113710.jpg http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120305_113732.jpg Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overdrive Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 I'm putting him on the shelf for now. I've never been great at freehand and I always worry I'll over do something and ruin a good paintjob. Here's a couple shots as he'll stand for now: http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120306_194212.jpg http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120306_194755.jpg http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120306_194807.jpg http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120306_194819.jpg http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk213/x2005eig/20120306_194846.jpg Stay tuned for my terminator project!

blackbabyjesus Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 pretty epic dude! the arm is still 'off' but that can't really be helped, and the rest of the model more than makes up for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Don't change anything on him, he's superb! Never figured Khârn would waste much effort on decorations, anyway. More bling = less kill time, never going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reckoning Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Thats an awesome model. Nice conversion and great paint job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Now THAT is Khârn. Love the white, very gritty looking and excellent skin tone. Maybe add some blood? I'm a sucker for blood on the right mini and can't be more right than Khârn lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
