Walking chapel, bring His light far as possible.

[the Belgian one]

Hi guys !

Some news tonight, MORE paint :)

I've started to paint the "hull", still very wip but i've tried a marble effect on the arches.

And, a few progress on one of the ground team guards...

Mixing the stormcast kit with space marines parts is quite effective if you want to give your marines a 'knight' look :)

gawd... I am in love...

Good evening everyone !

Today's update ! the techmarine !

I need some heldp finding him a head :p

Head 1

Head 2

Head 3

Or another ? any suggestion ?

[Aubéron]

Perhaps a Stormcast head like the Lord Castellant?

 

But the Head 2 is very cool.

[KrautScientist]

If it has to be one of the three heads, I'd say #2. #1 is excellent, but looks to much like a Tech-Priest and not enough like an Astartes. And #3 is just terrible.

 

But frankly, I'd suggest an altogether different head: One of the bare Centurion heads would be cool, especially the one with the bionic eye. Or maybe the partially organic head from the AdMech-Datasmith?

 

In any case, fantastic work! Have you ever considered posting this on the Ammobunker's INQ28 forum as well? The guy's over there would go crazy about this project!

[Mechanist]

not a fan of 2 as looks to servitor like, head one seems a little off like it sites to high but a touch of trimming could fix that. Unlike Kraut I really quite like no.3 but it's very space wolfish so possible not right.

Head 1 works the best out of the current group, but have you looked at doing a head from one of the Skitarii boxes? I've seen someone else use them on Marine bodies and they look really good in my opinion.

[the Belgian one]

thanks everyone !

For the head, i really like the idea of having a few flesh left ... so what about the sw head with the servitors's bionics ? i'll try to make this later and see what i get !

[the Belgian one]

Something like this ? still basic work, it needs to be cleaned up and resculpt a bit of the beard and some skin... but here is the global idea...

What do you think ? i'm still open to other propositions ...

[abraxus]

The mechanical part needs to be closer into the centerline of the head.  right now it looks like that eye was coming out directly in front of the outer ear.... but other than that I like.

[dogfender]

Considering you made a servitor head out of the Space wolf, Im going out on a limb to say it was your initial thought to go with beard face. I feel beard face doesn't fit the aesthetic or mood of the model. It would be out of place.

 

I don't dislike beards, I have one.

 

Go with head 2.

[Brother Sgt Kartr]

I like it! The beard really seems to work with the project as a whole and the bionics tie the head in with the Tech Marine role.

[Mechanist]

Aftrr a clean up I think it'll be perfect. Looking forward to seeing it in place.

[the Belgian one]

Leaving the head on the side for a moment... i've been starting to paint the techmarine !

First some airbrush to get a smooth red base ( black base, then brow and finally blood red ) :

First leviathan purple wash :

Then, airbrushin a 50/50 mix of yriel yellow and blood red :

And the second leviathan purple wash :

The red base is done so ... details ! all in black then some contrasting colors ! :

( i like the idea of having some parts yellow, it looks a bit like working tools :p )

More very soon :)

[Teetengee]

Would a heavily cybernetic head that changed it to a flatter and shorter shape be heresy?

[Radiation]

Awesome techmarine.

[Andvarr A]

Dat red tho....guddamn....

[Biohazard]

The tech marine is insanely detailed as is the walking chapel. Fantastic work. You seem to have settled on the wolf head but I'd still look at head #2. It for the rest of the model best imho. Awesome work though
