Skrundle87 Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 Hey mate thanks for the input. I don't disregard it at all I see it as beneficial to have an extra bit of advice on things like this. As you said it may be out of my league attempting to paint these effects but I think I'm willing to try On the topic of the models blending together it was quite easy really. With the aid of some bits and pieces and a bit of imagination I've found (particularly scale wise) the two kits to combine really easily and effectively.

Skrundle87 Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 So to satisfy my (and perhaps mechanists) concerns with how the wings might turn out I decided to do a wing tester as well. So here it goes http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/07D3CE3E-4BAA-4E03-8561-66BADBA97A11_zpsmjj3abuc.jpg Once again any notes would be handy Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/27/#findComment-4476221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechanist Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 looking good and should go nicely with the blue and gold, what are you planning or the bony bits? more purple or something else.

Skrundle87 Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 Nah I'll do the boney bits bone coloured.

Skrundle87 Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 So I've started painting the main model now. I won't bore you with progress shots every step. However, I would like some oppinions. I'm trying to decide which style of flames to go with. Option A. Fire breathing http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/E060C70C-81E5-4C33-8FAA-3A00F2C4F08F_zpssx6pmjox.jpg Or option B. Pre flame http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/DA1DB5A2-9C86-4133-A9A3-D0D0E854683B_zpsdja0lhsw.jpg I'm actually kinda partial to B myself Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/27/#findComment-4477976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filkarion Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I support B, more original and classy BTW I like those wings a lot, you seem to possess all the skill your model needs to be great!

Skrundle87 Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 Thanks a lot for the compliment. I was actually pleasantly surprised myself with how the wings turned out. I just hope I can recreate it onto the actual piece.

Svartmetall Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I'd also go with B, not least because it's going to be a lot less likely to get accidentally knocked off.

KrautScientist Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Hmm, option B is an interesting concept, and certainly the more original variant. However, I fear it might interfere with the shape and look of the head too much, especially if the flame effect ends up bright and striking. So I think A is the safer option, especially with the look of the whole model in mind.

Svartmetall Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Point; if you go with A, then pin it securely, and also I'd lay the flame piece on its side so it spread horizontally for more of a template-y feel. BTW I also really like the purple on the wing test.

Skrundle87 Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 Managed to get a touch more painting done today slowly but surely I feel it's coming along nicely http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/36190CBD-9AEA-4179-A94C-C9D1DDEE7E5E_zpsurr9o7fl.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/27/#findComment-4481170 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 I'll get some highlights done tomorrow and hopefully the wings! I feel confident that it's turning out well http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/88DCDFC2-D73C-4B55-B49E-E7A5CE356E2A_zpshvirtedx.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/27/#findComment-4481439 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldrick Shadowblade Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Looking good so far! I kind of like B, but i'd say ultimately it depends on your basing plans Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/27/#findComment-4481908 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 So it turns out this guy is proving to be very time consuming. However also very rewarding myself. After each step I am feeling more and more happy with it http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/03F225A3-66BF-4C1C-9A21-A95EC7CF031B_zpsarikv8aj.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/27/#findComment-4482234 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 So I couldn't help myself and I decided to paint two legs before I did the second wing. Having a whole side really gives a good idea how this beast is going to look when done http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/8A677CAE-E18A-4F46-8831-E91BB1DB79C5_zpsrd4iic56.jpg It will of course need a final lot of touch ups once fully assembled as I can see the rear leg is quite a lot darker but I will sort this out when done http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/0CB15EBE-3131-4CB9-B585-564F12D25B6C_zpspqi5ifsy.jpg http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/B2906C8C-4D3F-4206-A26D-AB2FB89C501E_zpsdok5nfbz.jpg http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/ABB66D00-2FCC-4FE4-85BF-3C33CFD79620_zpsuj7chrlf.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284490-skrundles-chaos-kitbashes-khorne-daemon-centaur/page/27/#findComment-4482324 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mechanist Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I'd say that's more than coming along nicely, thats a damn fine paint job right there. As for the flame I quite like option b but wouldn't mind a quick mock up pic with the whole sid view to see how it looks in the context of the whole drake.
