apologist Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) Iron Bear WIP ...and he's a big chap. The Iron Bears are described as twenty to thirty centimetres taller than other marines, which caused a few wrinkles for me! I've ended up still using the same principle as I usually do for my marines (based on Terminators), but more built up.

MikhalLeNoir Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) I think it fits. Just look at his primarch. Love it. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2016/9/4/824791_sm-.jpg By the way, where is the head from?

Demus Ragnok Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 @mikhail I believe that head is from the stern guard kit. Apologist I'm very happy to see you working on BotL I love your work especially the fluff for your Iron Warriors.

MikhalLeNoir Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Really? It looks bigger and especially broader.

~Drakzilla~ Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 That's the head from the plastic PA librarian kit. With added hair, of course. Also, it looks freaking amazing.

Doctor Perils Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 You know what he suddenly made me think of? A blood bowl player :lol: :P He's awesome Mikhal!

MikhalLeNoir Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) Haha. He plays a private match of bloodpowl with kawil and koschei where the marines are the ball^^. I try to get as close as possible to draks painting although i will have a few things different like the gauntlets of ares and less armor in the crotch. So i will add more to the pads. Maybe you have an idea? Always happy to try a few things out Edited September 13, 2016 by MikhalLeNoir Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325302-art-modelling-the-brotherhood-of-the-lost/page/4/#findComment-4500117 Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Drakzilla~ Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 I may be biased, but I'd like to see a Warrior of Peace portrayed in model form. Even so, a Drowned legionnaire should be next. Would love to see how you tackle that.

simison Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Book 1 Legions: Harbingers, Grave Stalkers, Iron Bears, Scions Hospitalier, and the Drowned. Yeah, the Scions or the Drowned should be up next.

bluntblade Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I still say we prioritise those without models. And there's plenty of room in the Insurrection for a hitherto unknown Scion Hospitalier to cause some ripples... So my preference would be Scion ≥ Drowned Man ≥ Warrior of Peace ≥ Warbringer ≥ Predator ≥ Void Eagle ≥ Jackal Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325302-art-modelling-the-brotherhood-of-the-lost/page/4/#findComment-4527160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhalLeNoir Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Only that the scions have a painted preator.

bluntblade Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) Thing is with the Scions is that the regulars, Depthstriders and Phantoms are all pretty singular. Damn, if I had the money, time and man-cave to answer the call of resin and plastic, I'd totally do a Scions army. Or dive straight into madness and build the Black Legion/Doom Bringers/Nemesis Legion/Dark Conquerors... I just can't find a combination of words that's properly satisfying.

Slips Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Before. Besides, I don't really convert any models I get so this is just the stock Praetor in Cataphractii.

apologist Posted October 11, 2016 Author Share Posted October 11, 2016 Warpathman Dohmnall Sakima of the Iron Bears In terms of modelling, I went for a bare head with a neat beard (the plastic power armoured Librarian) then sculpted on some short hair. This gave the figure a slightly Nordic feel without stepping on Space Wolf imagery. I played around with this by using a relatively dark skintone and dark hair; which gave a good background for some warpaint. With such a rich range of areas to draw from, it's easy for a figure to become over-complicated or too busy, and not work as a finished piece. He also had to read as a 'Space Marine', so I didn't want to cover him in bits and bobs. By keeping the silhouette clean, he doesn't read as an odd-coloured Space Wolf. Armament is a good way to introduce character; and 'power tomahawks' are mentioned in the background. I couldn't resist adding one, using the Justaerin weapon pack. This shot also details the Legion and Clan symbol – a bear's paw (top) surmounting a stylised deer's head. Hope you all like the result, and thanks to Redd for letting me have a go at making and painting an Iron Bear.
