helterskelter Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Right then ladies and germs of the forum.. it's sunday afternoon so what does one do? Get modelling say I! Not actually owning any forgeworld just yet I found an old stripped 40k marine lying around the bits tray so I look at him and say in my best magnus voice.. my son you will be my first Raptora breacher. So without further ado heres the start of me sculpting his legs up. http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/2013-11-10120534_zpsb3e7f79f.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/2013-11-10120601_zpsa3af7b8b.jpg Sorry for photo quality I have misplaced my camera temporarily so future pics will be better, once set im gonna file/sand/generally neaten and layer some liquid greenstuff to smooth and make the little armour rivets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune Priest Ridcully Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Is there grit in your greenstuff? Other then that it looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helterskelter Posted November 10, 2013 Author Share Posted November 10, 2013 Nah my sculpting is a bit messy so I have made a note to myself to tidy it up once dry. Plenty of sanding etc. Im not a seasoned practitioner of sculpting but I'm learning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cypher 89 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 wow really loving it, ive seen kine shields modeled onto minitures before using either a base ( size your choice) or even a flying base, then it was green stuffed up to look more physic powery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excessus Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I'm loving the idea, though I would humbly suggest two things for you. The forehead thingy is a little delicate thing in all the artwork of Thousand Sons, would it be better and easier to make it out of plasticard, or even thick paper or something? Secondly, do you have any GK players closeby? The GK boxes gets a truckload of open-palmed hands, and many don't use all of theirs! They are way more detailed than the bolter-hand and I would trade bits with someone to grab a few... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
