Axira Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Let's start out simple shall we! Here is a couple of my unpainted but finished custom sanguinius/sanguinor model! (note that the base is not part of the project) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/251789-brother-primarch-sanguiniussanguinor-project/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivepointedstar Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 what's the bong-like thing in his hands suppose to be? other than that using Sigvald as a Sanguinius was a good idea.

KaiserTJ1860 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 think its meant to be a grail or chalice... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/251789-brother-primarch-sanguiniussanguinor-project/#findComment-3053308 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morticon Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Model is epic- grail needs to be reworked considerably. Maybe make the handle thinner and smaller- looks like he's holding a tree-trunk at the moment.

The Holy Heretic Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I was thinking more of a plunger :( Â - Â Don't like the model, it just looks like Sigvald with a couple of wings stuck to his back. Wheres the 40K feel? :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/251789-brother-primarch-sanguiniussanguinor-project/#findComment-3053568 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axira Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Okay! Taking some suggestions in, I redid the model a bit! No more tree-trunk chalice! Also, what can I do to make it look more 40k-ish?

Taz Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Give him a pre-heresy power pack for his armor. I'd say give him a pistol too maybe if you weren't dead-set on a chalice.

captain maleck Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I think sigvald looks great as Sanguinius. Although I wouldn't mind seeing a few more blood drops around the place. However, that's just a personal feeling. Here's a link if you want any other inspiration:  http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Sanguinius  I quite like the second pic down, although I'm not so keen on the multiple blood drops on the chest. Looks a bit like a load of eyes, instead!  Hope this helps.  Cpt. M.

Axira Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Taz: I don't think any primarch should use a mere pistol! I could stick one on his wrist, But I want him to be playable! The chalice fits with the him since I will be using him for both sanguinius and sanguinor! Â Captain Malek:Blood drops eh... I am no good sculptor at all but I will try! Â Â Also do you guys think I should stick something else on his back other than the wings? or would he look to bulky then?

Taz Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Yeah if it didn't interfere with the wings a pack would actually make him look like he's wearing power armor Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/251789-brother-primarch-sanguiniussanguinor-project/#findComment-3054168 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinful eyes Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I agree with the above regarding the power pack, it would go a long way to make the mini look more 40Kish. Aside from that I like the mini! I always find it interesting to see rarely used models converted and fielded... there are a lot of really awesome sculpts that almost never see any use.

Axira Posted May 8, 2012 Author Share Posted May 8, 2012 The power pack made him look really bulky, I will to upload a pic of him when I get home!

Axira Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Custom sclupted chalice looked WAAAY better than the last one! Also the backpack came off and I lost it somewhere along traveling from home to the Local GW, so I have to get a new one!

Taz Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I might have to use Sigvald if I ever do a Sanguinius sculpt, but I'd be more tempted to use the lower body from a Nightbringer kit. I've seen that done before and it looks awesome.

Axira Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 Ah! It has indeed been a while since my last update! (just before Etenrabre lux challenge) But he is finally finished! Beware you slow computer people, this post will be Picture heavy! This project was incredibly fun to do and I will return to do a mephiston one aswell! ;) C&C are welcome! First up is the overall picture. it was not easy to get a closeup on the whole model since his wingspan is very wide. I wetblended the sword and it ended up really good IMO A closer picture on the model, note the freehanded cape! And lastly is a pic of his back with the powerpack added! It may look a little off, but it is positioned so it matches his torso!
