~Drakzilla~ Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 "Empty your mind.—And embrace the unknown.—Empty your heart.—And release your tether.—Empty your soul.—And enter the void.—" -Maxim of the Warriors of Peace, Legio XVII http://i.imgur.com/bxSS77o.jpgHey folks! Thought I'd update this thread with a spur-of-the-moment drawing I started of another Brotherhood of the Lost Primarch: The Jade General of the Warriors of Peace legion. Thoughts, comments, criticisms, etc. are appreciated!

MikhalLeNoir Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 I wish he would use a sword like this http://scarfamilyditdajow.com/images/TCW_BroadSword_9Ring.jpg and be a swordmaster instead of an hand to hand fighter. But i have a weakness for that quickdrawing style. Really cool Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322468-draks-illustratorum-holiday-update/page/2/#findComment-4503307 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluntblade Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Do you reckon, when more of these are done we could merge some into banners? Maybe one of the Astartes for the Great Crusade, and one of the Primarchs.

Raktra Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I just realised how easy it'd be (relatively) to make plastic Daemon Magnus into Daemon Alexos. IT BEGINS!

MikhalLeNoir Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Hehe, as soon as the pics were released planning.commenced. But Drak, whem will you get Jade finished? Just asking because Kozja feels so lonely on Madrigal right now^^ and sozewyse, how big is he? Compared to the other primarchs?

bluntblade Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 How many Astartes are currently sketched? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322468-draks-illustratorum-holiday-update/page/2/#findComment-4531653 Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Drakzilla~ Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 Jade is almost done, I just need to find the time to put finishing touches on him. However, the drawing is only from the knee up. If you need reference for modeling purposes, then I can do a quick sketch that shows off his full armor. Size wise, I'd say he's one of the smaller primarchs. Probably around Lorgar or Angron sized. @bluntblade: Not sure of a total number that I've done. That reminds me that I should probably put Hec on here as well.

bluntblade Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I don't see the final version of Odyssalas, for that matter Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322468-draks-illustratorum-holiday-update/page/2/#findComment-4531670 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Legs would be cool^^ But we have plenty of time^^ Hmm, so about Kozjas Size I think. Still not sure what to use as base. Edit: with all the bling removed, I might habe found a proper base^^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322468-draks-illustratorum-holiday-update/page/2/#findComment-4531676 Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Drakzilla~ Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 @Mikhal: Not sure if that's what I'd go with...I feel like it'd be a lot of trouble to scrape off all that bling. I'll send you the pic and you can have a better idea of what he looks like. I think it's about time I uploaded some of the stuff that I forgot to post here, starting with Odyssalas of the Scions Hospitalier: http://i.imgur.com/CXZQDlD.jpg Here we have the Primarch Hectarion of the mighty Crimson Lions Legion: http://i.imgur.com/dSJsZ1r.jpg And finally, something new, a line legionnaire of the Warriors of Peace(with an updated color scheme): http://i.imgur.com/AZlGynk.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322468-draks-illustratorum-holiday-update/page/2/#findComment-4531745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Really like the new scheme. Fear not, scraping things off and then resculping is my second name^^ but for the armor it fits best. Enough space for the belly Plate. The chestpiece seems to fit. Upper Legs habe a very similar shape. And the general needs a more fitting armor or he can't use his martial arts. That will work.u will see ( hopefully) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322468-draks-illustratorum-holiday-update/page/2/#findComment-4532046 Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Drakzilla~ Posted October 22, 2016 Author Share Posted October 22, 2016 Techpriest of the Mechanicum Xei 'An, a Forge World of my own creation from the Brotherhood of the Lost.

DaBoiKyknos Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Really like the Crimson Lions Primarch. Do you have any specific cultural influences for his theme?

bluntblade Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Really like the Crimson Lions Primarch. Do you have any specific cultural influences for his theme? Viking/Saxon. His helmet is essentially the Hereward the Wake classic.

~Drakzilla~ Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Thanks for the kind words! I really wanted to show the Chinese element of the legion, but in a subtle way. That particular legionnaire I imagine as one of the few remaining Terrans among the Warriors, so his armor bears less influence from their homeworld. So today I have a very rough sketch to show. This is Slynnat of the Berserkers of Uran, after he has received the Old Blood, transforming him into a warped, bloodthirsty monster. The Berserkers' are highly influenced by Bloodborne, Dark Souls and Mad Max, so I want to incorporate that into the aesthetic. I went for a more lanky look after seeing how the monsters from Bloodborne are generally thin and skeletal. Meanwhile the armor is going to take cues from the grimy, apocalyptic look of Mad Max. http://i.imgur.com/QFo7Wrx.jpg As always, thoughts and comments are appreciated.

bluntblade Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Maybe make the head a little bulkier? I feel it could do with some contorted muscles on the face, really crank the snarl and all that Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322468-draks-illustratorum-holiday-update/page/2/#findComment-4545662 Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Drakzilla~ Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 Yeah, this was just the initial sketch layer, but I fully intend to give him a more contorted, nasty face. The hard part is going to be showing that through the "muzzle." I'm also debating whether or not his mouth should be open or closed.

DaBoiKyknos Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 He actually looks more like some kind of Xenos than a demon/mutant to me.

Kelborn Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Maybe instead of the lizard-ish features, something more like a Wendigo of Until Dawn?

~Drakzilla~ Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 With the initial sketch some of the features are hard to make out, or nonexistent. He actually is meant to be more lupine, but I can see the why you might see a lizardlike look. Fur and more wolflike features will be added soon. In fact, here's the first concept I did: http://i.imgur.com/SmdleKB.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322468-draks-illustratorum-holiday-update/page/2/#findComment-4546013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
