Skrundle87 Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 Thanks for the feedback guys, I've got a few little guys on my desk to paint but I think I've realised there's little enjoyment there for me, I like the big jobs. On that note, anyone have ideas on what my next project should be? I'm thinking a custom heldrake would be nice or I'd like another dreadnight or imperial knight, the latter being costly unfortunately Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4057077 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 So here I am back after, wow almost a year. It's been a busy one. Basically renovated my whole home this year. It's been a challenge but worth it. I won't bore you with the details but I just finished the kitchen and my amazing wife decided I needed to have some fun and relax for a while. She knows little about the hobby other than my fondness for kitbashing and knowing I wanted to make a better Heldrake, so I scored these http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/C90B7F80-BB2B-4C7F-B229-E352DDCDC660_zpsptivptkc.jpg I plan on smashing these four into two heldrakes Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4323685 Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0MMY Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 awesome wife you have there! Really looking forward to seeing your heldrake bashes - I really want one but am not keen on the standard kit at all... inspire me!!

Skrundle87 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 Cheers mate. I have the first rough blu tacked concept down http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/4C296C43-B01B-4D94-AB46-5A641670FE57_zpsfranhbzn.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4323725 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skrundle87 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 And concept 2 http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/568F48FF-7579-44C9-A278-3BF70AADADF5_zpssagmyuzv.jpg Now my issues thus far are that the wings on the second need to be raised but the drake body has a fixed back plate so this will require a lot of cutting and such. Unsure on the second head as well. With the first one I think it may need larger wings. Such as the new Bloodthirster. Sadly the black dragon wings are smalle than I anticipated Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4323740 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 Already solved the downward wings issue on the second dragon.

Skrundle87 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 Some proper assembly done on the Bonedrake http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/361806FB-CFF9-4897-9919-A2D95904A8DE_zpscebfkcey.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4323896 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 Construction of the Bonedrake is pretty much complete http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/A7881D7B-FA7A-4CDC-ADDD-A36C2012B0A3_zpskhwvqbhf.jpg http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/524457B8-47D0-4474-9CDC-F318490F9314_zpstzzvvwdm.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4323920 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Now that is how the Heldrake was supposed to look in the first place.

Skrundle87 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 First guy basically sorted. Need to suss out a tail and I'm thinking the wings are to small http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/8C0AB0F3-5BE4-4C6B-845F-DBA525C3EC9E_zpsgkuwye4h.jpg And a shot of the two http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/64EB66C6-EBD6-4EEC-9CE7-17C7C91450B8_zpsxrbkpbf4.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4324005 Share on other sites More sharing options...
for_dorn_and_for_de_emprah Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Whoa, really cool topic here! My opinion on your job is that the flying guy is very cool, but the second one is to revisit. Try to bring him stand up on his legs and move the wings a bit forward. IMHO.

Dragonlover Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Instead of one solid tail on the first one, how about using the mechatendrils as several whippy tails?

T0MMY Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 You didn't disappoint - these are awesome. I can't decide which one I like best!! Personally I don't worry too much about scale in 40k (you think 10 marines would fit in a rhino?! lol) and the wings on the second guy look fine to me. A tail might balance him out though. I just gotta work out which kits to buy now to make one for myself! Thanks for sharing.

Quixus Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I wonder how those two would look if you switched the heads. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4324318 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Skrundle, mate, those are fantastic! Personally speaking, I really like the crouching one just as much as the flying one. Please don't make him stand up on his hind legs, as that will just end up looking silly. I also think the heads are fine the way they are. He does need a tail, though, as pointed out by some of the other guys. But wow, quite a return to form! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4324429 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 Thanks for al the kind words and input guys. Currently working on an idea for the second head to slightly change it up vita head swap is unlikely as the crouched one is all daemon engine parts and the flying one has a lot of bone parts. Can't wait to start some proper assembly and green stuff work Going to attempt to lift the walking one up a bit on all fours still though Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4324516 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechanist Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 The Bone one looks really cool, the Mauler is definitely missing something, Have you looked at hive tyrant wings? I think the bulk differences as they stand side by side is also a little ood though GW flyers a definitely under scaled (just compare the hades auto cannons between the two daemon engine kits) so it's like the flying one is just further away I suppose. I won't re link the Farther Ted sketch though.

Skrundle87 Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 Farther ted sketch? I have a personal issue with tyranid parts on other models. I can always tell they are tyranid parts and it bothers me haha. To me it's like putting an eldar helmet on a marine. If I am to change the wings I'd be putting the wings off the new bloodthirster only issue being I cannot be sure if the size is right on those either Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/25/#findComment-4325665 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechanist Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I used link to the sketch in my Knight post about and hour before posting posting here. I know what you mean about nid parts especially when scything talons are used, the tyrant wings are on of the few parts I would consider using as long as I changed up the "hand" section and a little filling on the arm. Thurster wings are massive so should do just fine, or if you can get them Archon's stead has some pretty big wings too.
