The mockup is looking very promising so far! Good thing you managed to find out how to embed pictures ;)

 

Your approach is a bit more organic, but maybe my own Chaos Dreadknight conversion contains an idea or two you might find helpful.

 

Looking forward to seeing your next update!

Haha funny you should say that krautscientist, I believe your dradknight thread Is one of the posts I drew inspiration from, in fact I think I have a screenshot of it saved for quick reference haha. Looks fantastic. That's the model that made me want to paint mine red rather than iron warriors pattern

Okay so I've green stuffed the chest in and made the shin pads up

And now I reckon I've sorted the arms out

So in theory it's done now, though I'm thinking I need to add more flesh into the legs and I'm not sure if I like the little legs joining the torso to the legs, was a great idea in my head but not so sure on the model

Yep, more flesh on the legs would really help I think, still looking quite mechanical for a chaotic war engine.  As for the stubby grey knight legs- with some plastic tubing, cable, etc. and some ingenuity- you could totally make weapon harnesses for something like a sawblade to swipe out and cut loyalists down to size!

So very close to painting now guys! Did my (hopefully) last dry fit tonight and am really happy with it not sure if I still need to mold in more flesh, and I have had a 'hoof' like feet

 

Here's my hoof idea

A little unsure about it

 

And here's the big guy in his unpainted glory!

Any last tips before I paint would be great

I think it's looking really swell, but I don't quite know, maybe it needs some more muscle and sinew? The muscles on the front of the lefs looks great, but I think it needs some attention on the sides and a tad on the rear- and maybe around the chest joint too?

 

You're at a 10 right now man, why not go for the full Spinal Tap and crank it up to 11?

 

Not really sure about the hoof idea either.

Yeah I reckon the hoofs off the cards more I think about it and I agree sinew is definately nevcesary down the back of the legs as for the torso I'm thinking tubes from body to machine other than more muscle abd sinew up top, however I'm thinking the pistons may need sinew

 

Thanks fir the compliments, one if ny best models so far I reckon

Nice job !

I'm ok for the main body and legs ! it works almost perfectly ! 

But ... i have a problem with the arms ...

The tail seems too small for me and attached too high in the back... maybe if you plug it lower ( on the "ass" i don't know how to name it in an other way ... ) it would work better !

the feets are ok like this maybe some chaotic stuff like chaos dreads from F-W 

@rift blade, I definately like the idea of horns or claws instead of the foot pistons, I'll get on that the

 

@ the Belgian one, I had started to have some concerns with the tail, not so sure probably could do with being lowered a portion

Lowered the tail, and had to put some extra work into the back muscles much happier with it lower

And my leg, piston to claw swap, need to green stuff em in nicer but I like the conversion

Still trying to think of a way around the shoulder replacements but I may just keep them as are but with some flesh on them

Nice idea for the pistons/claws swap ! 

Another thing you can do is organic like cables here and there instead of the pure mechanical ones !  

OH ! and some chainmail cloth ( take the one from the daemon prince box set ;-) it will fit perfectly i think ! ) 

Nice job continue ! 

PS : i'm not a big fan of the wings ... you should swap those with the hive prince ... larger... stranger... better !

       Or ... no wing at all and instead of them, power cells reactors or stuffs like this as you can see on the dark eldar Talos ( but without the "bones" structure )
