Skrundle87 Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 Very much on the blue tack phase, I kinda like the spider look is all, however I've always wanted to do a scorpion defiler maybe I could utilize it on this instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daemonclaw Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 tentacles look great for the octobrute and loving the concept of the arachnofiend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrautScientist Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Like I've said before, absolutely stunning work! It's almost unbelievable how puny the Dreadknight conversion looks next to the new guy! So, next stop Reaver Titan, right? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 Thanks kraut, i would really like a titan however they just cost so darn much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 He looks awesome! Oh and now I know how big the Knight Titan actually is as I haven't seen one in the flesh yet. I cant help but feel the Dreadknight conversion needs bigger shoulders now though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skrundle87 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Cheers guys, I'm really happy with it @ biohazard, I think the dreadnight in its entirety looks puny in comparison haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Almost final wip pics of the octobeute and arachnofiend (thanks for the names daemonclaw) A bit unsure on the tentacle placemwnt on the octobrute, and something about it just seems to small http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0755_zpst7m1jbnd.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Hmm, maybe it's just the different angle of the photo, but the "Octobrute" does indeed have a rather squat appearance in the new picture. Did you change the placement of the legs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Same placement. I think you're right it's the angle other angle was looking down a bit so yeah. Dunno what to do there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Hmm, maybe it's the angle at which the legs are attached? I'll just point you towards Biohazard's amazing Helbrute conversion here, because his approach uses very similar components to a near perfect effect: http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n235/Stovie_2006/01140391-FC2A-42CB-8C50-087D362D09DB.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Yeah I think it may be the fact that biihazards is standing more upright, mines legs may be a tad spread making it appear shorter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Holy crap, that arachnofiend is awesome! Can you post a rear shot?, I want to see how you mounted the tail heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quixus Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Arachnids with four legs? Preposterous! Seriously though, while the Octobrute looks almost cuddly in an "OMG it's going to grab me, hug me and then devour me" kind of way, the best adjective I can come up with for the Arachnofiend is alien. It must be the lack of face and the vaguely scorpion-like appearance. Well done on both models. Can't wait top see them painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Kraut, thanks buddy. Now, to the matter at hand, I like the rough look of the arachnofiend, it's gonna look cool with another couple of bits and some paint. The Octobrute however seems to have lost some of it's original menace, it may be the angle or it could be the large head and tentacles throwing it off. One suggestion is shortening the tentacles slightly and maybe change the position of the lower tentacles to wrap around almost in line with his elbows? Just a couple of thoughts, another option is using a slightly smaller head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Thanks for all the helpfull input here guys Holy crap, that arachnofiend is awesome!

Kraut, thanks buddy. Now, to the matter at hand, I like the rough look of the arachnofiend, it's gonna look cool with another couple of bits and some paint.

One suggestion is shortening the tentacles slightly and maybe change the position of the lower tentacles to wrap around almost in line with his elbows? Just a couple of thoughts, another option is using a slightly smaller head? I was contemplating shortening the tentacles, hopefuly that makes a good effect otherwise I'm not sure I have any smaller heads lying around All in all I'm happy as Larry with the arachno, as biohazard said, a couple more bits and some paint and we will be sweet As for the octo, I don't know what I changed but I was happier before haha, keep the input coming guys, greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Okay I'm 90% sure it looked worse because of the shoulder pads http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0759_zpstjrmwh00.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
