Grizzly_bear Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 Thanks a lot guys, noted on the shark symbol....shall be corrected Brother Melice, thank you for that advice. Will give it a go and post up the fi signed model once it's done. I'll be Back working on these guys as my airbrush has decided to play up, which I took apart to clean and now it won't go back together....and I needed the airbrush for a space hulk commission I have along with doing my tanks (not a happy fist) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armond Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 The only complaint is the sharks facing the wrong way but the grey is great nice hunts if rust and dynamic posing! Love the space hulk terminator It is? I know there are images of both ways around the internet. But the forge world chapter tactics .PDF shows it looking left. http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/a/a4/Carcharodon5.jpg This is the best example I think, it seems to always face towards the front of what ever it's on and as we read left to right (English) the first thing should be it's head This goes the same for most modern military patches/insignia as well, you want the symbol facing "forward" as though it is moving towards the battle, not away. The U.S. flag on a troop's arms should show the stars moving towards the enemy. I noticed that as well. But otherwise, great stuff as per usual!

death given form Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Love the grey on the Sharks. May I ask how you achieved it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redlead Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Wow!, I mean WOW!!, the level of real realism and depth of detail is truly amazing on these Scythes you have painted, hats off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly_bear Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Once I've gotten round to then again I'll post up how I did the grey for the sharks. Thanks again for the comments..... Well....last week I got a commission.....space hulk.....I was testing out reds on some of my own models when my customer changed his mind and asked if I could turn the terminators into scythes......so to my joy I was glad as it's a scheme I'm familiar with (who knew) so I took a dremel to most of the areas of the termies but through my suggestion to save most of the models's details, so the few remaining blood drops will represent either fallen brothers or honour marks fighting alongside the BA or Lamentors as they too suffered greatly at the hands (claws) of hive fleet kraken also.... So here's the work so far.... The first 6 http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/667EA255-77A6-461D-BD29-B87C2FAAF784_zps8m8yfmuc.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/9BA0AB0E-E2E4-4D46-9B5B-ABEA102BDC57_zpswrlqq7ni.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/748D1DA9-70B7-46B8-89D4-0C3B2BB02915_zpsndpbohhi.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/4F54570A-97B2-43A4-9680-0850338C34F7_zpsviurxasr.jpg Script work.... http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/F4225A4A-5FE8-459F-B232-2EFCC083A602_zpsprhiqnyd.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/D1B91C69-83BD-43DC-95C5-4A35E960FB04_zpsjqeuwfm7.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/52FACEB0-8E48-4BE2-9FC9-160882345966_zpsqnxpagjg.jpg And the progression of battle damage ... http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/365D31F5-493C-4963-9A4D-CCA22E653544_zpslgpnouz6.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/61D4EF80-EEF7-48F2-BC96-5C47EBB4079B_zpsbwpzhily.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/61D4EF80-EEF7-48F2-BC96-5C47EBB4079B_zpsbwpzhily.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/A7257BBD-25BA-495B-BED2-347B8AD48229_zpsg2zwcmtj.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/0BD8B8A6-C71F-44B0-B806-ED69615DC92C_zpsx6jet4ph.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/6040FFA4-01DA-41AB-BB8C-BDED55203546_zpsqkqi5opu.jpg Here's still loads to do as you can see Made a start too in these two http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/commissions/6814DD85-5A49-47CD-9AEA-18482E1C6C74_zpsybqq4vm5.jpg Hope you guys like the update. I am working on my scouts still....but this commission is taking priority, with this commission the guy (the hobby room on instergram) and I will be catching up very soon, he's building a space hulk style board along with a city block and we are planning/writing out our own version of space hulk....to play.....it'll be centralised around the missions in space hulk but with 40k rules in genes of moving, shooting etc with added special rules and tactics, along with space crusade style missions too (Biohazard is helping with that also) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lysimachus Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Beautiful! The only problem I can see with them is that you're going to want to keep them for your own Scythes rather than hand them over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherCaptainArkhan Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Nice Termi conversions. I'm either converting mine to run as Deathwatch or Blood Ravens, and am dreading the amount of filing and sanding I'll have to do to get rid of the Angels iconography.

Razblood Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Commisions now eh?

Marqol Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Sorry to hear about your nan. These scouts are looking great, really dynamic, much better than the standard scout box.

Grizzly_bear Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 1000heatheans: thank you bro, me changing how my scouts look was inspired by your work on your malevs. Right. Not really a massive update, I'm going to keep the commission stuff to a bar min on this thread as its a tad confusing as the scheme is obviously mine too lol BUT before I show where I'm at with things.....here's a blast from the past, from my old DIY chapter Fallen brother Fradiō http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/scythes%20of%20the%20Emperor/3C5BA4F8-81E5-4736-AC4D-014E66714B70_zps9og7eiwa.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/scythes%20of%20the%20Emperor/0CB81E5C-F8AC-4935-B9C3-D3DF791AA81A_zpsrs866oey.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/scythes%20of%20the%20Emperor/0E7CF572-B655-4EA7-A3A0-5E60BAD5CA99_zpsyd99jvou.jpg I think it's great seeing old models you painted and put together. I'm also entering golden demon next year, diorama category, "1st company's final stand" Here's just the first mock up of a sketch just to get a basic look and feel of how I want the terminators to look http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/scythes%20of%20the%20Emperor/6622DE95-497A-47DD-AC38-CA7BA65F466D_zpspq2z7qfb.jpg Now we move on to the big man him self of the chapter.....the chapter master him self, which I do believe I've shown in earlier pages.... BUT I've got a dilemma....what should he be armed with in his right hand.... http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/scythes%20of%20the%20Emperor/1B8ACE17-B7D5-45B5-A8F3-F992D74D22E7_zps3lrxyvon.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b604/grizzlywipez/scythes%20of%20the%20Emperor/96A240F9-D437-485C-9B6F-F18125DF85E0_zpsvrhyd2uj.jpg Thunder hammer?

One-eye Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 That conversion will be stunning whatever you choose. But, I prefer the blade version, the duel feeling is better and he looks less like an IF (with the hammer, he ressembles a cool version of Lysander) my 2 cents :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
