Garden Ninja Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Here's a Brass Scorpion that I did for a commission a little while ago. I really enjoyed doing all kinds of crazy freehand and filling those panels. Filling them with grotesque images that would please Khorne was really quite a bit of fun, and worked well with the theme that the mini already has going for it. Anyway, here he is, with a slew of detail shots. Also, I've posted him up on CMON for anyone who cares to vote. http://www.gardenninja.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/chaos-space-marines/chaos-black-scorpion-4.jpg http://www.gardenninja.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/chaos-space-marines/chaos-black-scorpion-5.jpg http://www.gardenninja.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/chaos-space-marines/scorpion-preview.jpg http://www.gardenninja.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/chaos-space-marines/chaos-black-scorpion-3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 :) I'd probably start pulling my hair out halfway through painting just one of those panels. That's just sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goreshed Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Out of all the Brass Scorpions I have seen this one takes the cake. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old git Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Great googa-mooga... If I get where you're coming from I think you mean; Great googly-moogly whichever it is, I have to agree, that is one fantastic looking scorpion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisada Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 If the rest of your army is painted to match or of similar quality ... I WANNA SEE IT so my head can explode from the awesomeness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malika666 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Very well done! Quite unusual as well! Thing is that the style in which you did the freehand stuff almost seemed graffity or cartoon like, which might normally not be that fitting for 40k, but in case of this model it's just impressive!

Surely you mean great "Emperor" ;) @OP: Now that is dedication, if I had a top hat, it would be off to you sir :wacko: Oh, no. If anything he should be admonishing Khorne right now. Although if googa-mooga turns out to be the chaos god of painting, well... By the way, I can't remember exactly how long this took, but I think it was something above sixty hours. I paint full time, so it was a little over a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redemption2994 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Truly amazing. I've seen your paintjob all over the internet. Absolutely brilliant. PS. Where did you get that lovely base? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garden Ninja Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Truly amazing. I've seen your paintjob all over the internet. Absolutely brilliant. PS. Where did you get that lovely base? I made the base out of a clock I got from Walmart. Basically, I took the clock apart and it created two huge lipped bases. I've used similar ones on some of the dragons that I've painted.

Olis Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Goodness gracious me. The 80's called - they want their kick-ass heavy metal album cover back! That, brother, is well worth a ten on CMoN. I doff my cap to you, sir. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That, brother, is well worth a ten on CMoN. I doff my cap to you, sir. ;) Ok, I missed this comment the first time around. Thanks. I really feel that Iron Maiden captured the Khorne look for me. But then again, I started playing Chaos back when there was a metal band with a 40k album cover... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lachdannan Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 That is a lot of freehand. I wish I had the patience and skill to pull of something like that. Well done sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
