cassar Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I have been given permission to go ahead and sculpt this 3d render of a space marine Chaplain created by Pavel Zolot'ko, I think its pretty damn cool and hope to do it some kind of justice when sculpting. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/warhammer_chaplain_by_pabelbilly-d6scm2b_zpsea97b472.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/warhammer_chaplain_face_v2_0_by_pabelbilly-d6t4nan_zps08291306.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/warhammer_chaplain_face_by_pabelbilly-d6scmdy_zps759067fd.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312853-space-marine-chaplain-largescale-sculpt/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironheaded Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Sculpt it? NO! I want to ANIMATE it! Is that the ZBrush rendering of it? It would kill a 3d printer :D Good luck with the sculpt. What scale with the figure be (and height in inches approx.) ?

BrotherCaptainArkhan Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 If you can approach that level of detail in the sculpt...well, it'll be something to behold, for sure. Get sculpting, brother :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312853-space-marine-chaplain-largescale-sculpt/#findComment-4155645 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassar Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 The start is always so pain full looks like the back end of a tram smash lol. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/038_zpsu5yvh7wc.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/039_zpswjl9jns8.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/040_zpsqm9nbocx.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/041_zpscn8lsnsk.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/042_zps3g57dyfh.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/043_zpsdwpyle42.jpg watch and be amazed as I do the impossible....polish a turd lol only kidding the start of a build is always this bad, the end is the important bit.

Ironheaded Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Yes, it looks bad at the start.. but it's not. It's the same rough shaping I have done with 3D figures. And i'm loving the nostalgian of "putty around tinfoil ball" part of the process. What happens to your works after you complete them, sir?

Machine God Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 yep its z brush and the sculpt will be around 10" 12" in heightThat is about 4" larger than the Forgeworld Space Marine.

And i'm loving the nostalgian of "putty around tinfoil ball" part of the process. What happens to your works after you complete them, sir? well usually I work on a commission basis but there's nothing on at the moment so I guess I'm just keeping my eye in. Once its built if someone doesn't buy it then it will probably sit in my workshop along side the ultramarine terminator, Magnus the traitor a dreadnought and a few other bits n bobs. (put the link up to the gallery as you suggested) yep its z brush and the sculpt will be around 10" 12" in heightThat is about 4" larger than the Forgeworld Space Marine. yup should be roughly that depends how the build progresses as its all done eye to hand.

Ironheaded Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Oh, in a prior thread, I see you use Miliput for sculpting. I want to suggest another two-part epoxy. I found it in auto-motive section at a truck stop. I think it's sold for patching leaks in high pressure hoses. It's grey and brown colors and when mixed up, it seems to have a metallic quantity to it. It dries very very hard, so when filing to a crisp edge, it wont flake. Gives a Dremel a good workout to carve in details too. :D I dont know if you work for a uniform color, in the final product. Maybe it's not the right product for you? But for bits that dangle, that one doesnt want broke off, and for sharp beveled surfaces, there is nothing finer in my toolbox. Do you cast your works, after they are done, to make extra models?

Ironheaded Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 will probably sit in my workshop along side the ultramarine terminator I think the cigar-in-mouth was distractive. It was too much like StarCraft to be Ultramarine.

cassar Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 Done some progress on the head, i have decided that due to th extreme detailing i am going to do the head/cables set up as one component that way i can do the cables etc and have it all finished up and therefore a base for the scale of the rest of the body Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312853-space-marine-chaplain-largescale-sculpt/#findComment-4161896 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassar Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 Heres some pictures progress is really slow at the moment, having to go a slightly different direction than im used to. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/011_zpsrkq2yzpk.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/003_zpsyydzuq4k.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/008_zpsebqmxdwd.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/009_zpsjhvhmzru.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/010_zpschbb2fxx.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/009_zpsjhvhmzru.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312853-space-marine-chaplain-largescale-sculpt/#findComment-4164669 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironheaded Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Rock. I think would be okay if you smoothed the "skull" around the incoming plug sockets.

mcme Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 i love this sculpt already!!! i just have one tiny point of critisism, the skull looks too 'happy' in my opinion, not menacing and judgemental enough. that being said, mad respect to you and your skills, i'll be following this thread closely.

cassar Posted September 19, 2015 Author Share Posted September 19, 2015 More updates on the head assembly, I was also advised that he looked a little comical rather than menacing so I change his demeanour slightly. I have temporarily tacked the pieces together to make sure I'm going the right way, seems ok to me. Progress was slow due to an unforeseen painting project (the wife wanted the house painted lol) http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/18_zpsutn037nf.png http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/19_zpscwooi6rl.png http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/17_zpsngwo4hhl.png http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/15_zpsvzf98ubl.png http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/14_zpsgvbvsxkp.png http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/16_zpsjbo5z0er.png http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/13_zpsm8mqh588.png http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/12_zpsk4xwr5zp.png Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312853-space-marine-chaplain-largescale-sculpt/#findComment-4176009 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cassar Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 A bit more work done, his aspect has been altered slightly and I have finished off some of the rivet detailing. The main thing is the piping/cable work, I was concerned that I would be unable to make it all fit as per the render as that's two dimensional and obviously this is 3d but, Hooray hand to eye coordination triumphs again ( I guessed right it fits the Gorget perfectly). http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/004_zps4rxka7ew.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/005_zpsus9nkn82.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/006_zpstyaxfvra.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/007_zpswsnqis5d.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/008_zpsdoyvuwuc.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/015_zpsftuzawch.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/010_zpsanezmd2t.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/011_zps1gqf9gsm.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/013_zpstmmhmbtk.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/016_zpsnwp4obrl.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/017_zpsykaskdp0.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312853-space-marine-chaplain-largescale-sculpt/#findComment-4179360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassar Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 A bit more progress on the head and Gorget nearly finished bar a few rivets etc here and there. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/027_zpsyiejychw.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/031_zpst8zu7uyc.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/039_zpss0clfhm7.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/040_zpszt8r8skt.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/041_zps7aeno6j3.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/042_zpsexlbxhpe.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/045_zpsphyjw1ic.jpg Now I can start on the torso things should start to speed up now I am happy with the head scale.
