Der_H Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 So this is a thread for advice. Brother Handro and I are making HQ choice secret gifts - ala secret santa...but in Feb...Not Christmas... Behold my offering thus far - Brother H dont look. http://i1145.photobucket.com/albums/o501/henrycoll/EC/Other/1.jpg http://i1145.photobucket.com/albums/o501/henrycoll/EC/Other/2.jpg http://i1145.photobucket.com/albums/o501/henrycoll/EC/Other/3.jpg What do you guys think in general? Specific questions hidden below: 1) What do you think about the book? I wanted it to be ancient machine rites etc?2) Right arm - I cut and filed down the base model's arm and replaced it with a cut job of various parts. Does it work. I know it is asymetric but If I hadnt pointed it out would you notice?3)Servo arm - can you see that it has been cut jointed or does it look like it was meant to be that way!

00branchow Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I'm not seeing any asymmetry between the arms and the mechadendrite looks like it belongs there. And the book fits well. I've always liked those characters smart/ crazy enough to bring a book to a war zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a good model, I don't see anything wrong with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 He looks fine to me, I wouldn't have noticed the servo arm if you hadn't said anything. The book is a cool addition too, maybe you can paint a small schematic in it? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cactus Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 That's a great conversion. I've recently painted two of that model so I know it fairly well and I can't see the joins on the servo arm. If want to make it more awesomer may I suggest two things? One, paint the lens of the bionic eye. Two, highlight the edges of the robe where you have that black trim.

Der_H Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 Many thanks for the recommendation. I'll give those a go when I get my hand to a brush! I knew it was missing something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Also that symbol on the back back is asking for some black and white - that would help complete him :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azekellon Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Use some lighter shades to highlight the cloak, maybe drybrush some watered down Abbadon to the metal bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
