Warsmith Aznable Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I liked the other mask a lot. It had a kind of Silent Hill/Hell Raiser look to it. It's hard to go wrong with the particular mask you went with, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 Still not definate. Was just a second option, cheers. I liked with the other one that you could see the snarling teeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skrundle87 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Other arm done, think the sword needs a redo, not super happy with it I don't think  http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0391_zps7elu4gzo.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 ALL DONE !! minor touch ups perhaps but not bad, not as good as I hoped but fairly happy.

Chaeron Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 They are a very cute pair - well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Looking amazing, Skrundle! No reason why you shouldn't be happy with the sword arm, either! It looks ace! Â Master of late criticism that I am, I do have two nitpicks, however: Â 1. Personally speaking, I'd add something to those armour panels to either side of his chest -- they just look a little barren as is. Â 2. I only realised that now, seeing the model in profile, but the head (or rather, the thin neck) looks a bit strange if seen from the side: Like a turtle sticking out its head, for lack of a better comparison. Maybe you should add a little more bulk to the neck and beck of the head with some cabling running from the back of the head between the dread's shoulders? Â Hate to be the smart arse when everything's already painted, but I hope you'll take this as constructive crticism and not as me just spitballing what is already an amazing model!

Skrundle87 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 I must admit, the bare armour panels were beginning to bother me, also it wasn't until I photographed it side on that I noticed the turtle neck haha so I totally agree and like the idea of some cabling, if you have any tips on what would work well for the empty spaces, I'm all ears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Hmm, the cables that make up the Defiler CC weapon are highly versatile for something like this. The hideous spines that come with the DE Talos/Cronos kit are also a pretty good option. Just use some of those bitz, and add some GS to make the points of connection to the rest of the model look suitably organic, and you're there. Â As for the panels, Khorne icons or the humble chaos stars from the chaos vehicle sprue might work. I used a similar look on one of my own Dreads. Â Hope this helps! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 Khorne symbols probably aren't a bad idea, I'm beginning to realise, although not originally intended, Im thinkin a khorne war band isn't a bad idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infyrana Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Great conversions :) Â But every time I look at the latest finished one exploding out from the middle of the dreadnought... I picture him as an opened shirt 1970's ... star, wanting to desperately wear a gold medallion over his hairy chest.... hehe :DÂ Sorry, blame it on TV stereotyping ! Â Seriously though, yes, he does look a bit bare on the chest area, and any of the symbols relating to khorne would work well no doubt :)Â I don't recommend you do something even on each side, definitely make it mismatched, hanging trophies on one side.

Skrundle87 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 Working on a couple small things while I decide on my next big project just a couple Lord/champion conversions  First up a raptor/talon  http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0403_zpswu0djpb7.jpg  secondly a standard, champion/Lord  http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0404_zpssnxqzyqs.jpg  I'm starting to think however, with his leaping pose, the second may look better with a bolt pistol instead of the fist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrautScientist Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 The Raptors are coming along swimmingly! On the second guy, I actually love the fist and would definitely keep it. That spear looks too puny for an Astartes, though: Maybe you should replace it with a chaos knight (or Skullcrusher) lance for a bit more oomph?!

Skrundle87 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 I agree mate that was just a mock up with a spare part so I could see how it looked  http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0433_zpsl67pcwcf.jpg  Here's the beginnings of a custome lance  My issue is also how it looks to have a jump pack and a cape...

Skrundle87 Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 So I haven't even painted them yet (probably tomorrow) but I'm a little bored with little minis already haha  So I have got two new ideas, it would be apparent to anyone that's been keeping an Wye on my work that I like do organic/daemonise battle engines, needless to say this was inspired by the chaos daemon engines, however I feel I can make them more daemonic/organic by kitbashing, here's my ideas (both of which should leave me with enough bitz to kitbssh some random stuff  Anyway enough blah blah, first a dragon/ helldrake http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/2_zpsr60cxabz.png  Or a slaughterbrute/maulerfiend  http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/4_zpsrygfvouf.png  Thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 New model release means new ideas haha I already have a soul grinder so here are is my new idea  http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/6_zpsgiylf8fz.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Chaplain Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Terrorgheist/ Helldrake would be a little bit easier to integrate together than the dragon. Â Likewise, due to the sheer scale of the Knight, it could only really fit on a khorne lord of skulls. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My choices for the Dragon is because I didn't like the bat/skeleton look of the gheist  And as for Lord of skulls I can't condone spending another 170 to make one model, I've already got the main bits leftover still from a soul grinder  Cheers for the thoughtts though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Let the fun begin! Say hello to the concept of my Soul Knight or Knight Grinder (probably the former, the latter sounds like a sex position haha) Â http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0461_zpsdy9udgif.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
