abstract incendiaries Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Glad to see the B&C back online I spent a fair while with a dremel and saw attacking Brother Captain Stern, until there was not much left then I resculpted lots of bits and have got abot this far now. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/AF.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/AR.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/AB.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/Al.jpg I painted the face which is a separate bit when i was bored and think it is probably the best one I have done yet. The putty is a mix of Green and Brown stuffs which was then accidentally burnt with my lamp in an attempt to speed up the cure time. I apologise for the low quality photos my good lamp is in my room at Uni so i have to work with not much. I welcome your comments and critiques.

Horus Reborn Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I never realized you could burn GS with a lamp, interesting. :-) I had just recently been gifted with a severely disabled Stern model from the junk/damaged bin of a friends gaming store. After starting to file him down and ponder what to make of him, I think I may have to go ahead and copy a page out of your book. Yours is turning out very nicely, and I'll be looking forward to seeing some updates.

Kyarl Deathaxe Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Abstract Incendiaries? why does that name sound so familiar? you the same guy from the smoking bolter by any chance? Anyway aside from the rambling nice model, nice crisp paint job on the head also! i know that removing the heads from those models is a right pain in the @$$ Cheers Nick :blush: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84385-adeptus-mechanicus-terminator-magos/#findComment-976313 Share on other sites More sharing options...
abstract incendiaries Posted April 6, 2006 Author Share Posted April 6, 2006 Thanks for the kind words. @Brother-Fenix - His face is lighter with a purple hue to the shadows, but the poor lighting has changed it a bit, i shall try and get better pictures soon. @Kyarl Deathaxe - I was. I stand by what I said. I welcome any further comments.

Foolio_Displasius Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 That's a great use for Stern, and gives me ideas for the half of him I've got intact... :D Something about his right shoulder looks off, though. Almost like the pad should be moved further towards the front of his body. :angry: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84385-adeptus-mechanicus-terminator-magos/#findComment-976862 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironloki Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Welcome back AI. I love seeing Adeptus Mechanicus models. He's got a nice, chunky and clunky feal to him. Would love a closer look at that skull on his shoulder if your lamp permits :angry: . Now lick on some more paint and bring him to life Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84385-adeptus-mechanicus-terminator-magos/#findComment-976884 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squiggoth Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Sweet clunky Martian guy! The painting on the face is fantastic ... Very smooth. B) The only point of critique is that on the second pic, the rivest on his shoulder pad are at different heights - shoddy workmanship like that is not fitting on someone from the Adeptus Mechanicus. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84385-adeptus-mechanicus-terminator-magos/#findComment-977163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
abstract incendiaries Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Thanks for the comments. @Foolio_Displasius - It sadly is the only place it really fits what with the cloak and the iron halo, hopefully you will htink it looks better when all is painted. @Ironloki - I have some more photos of the arm now with a bit of paint, again they are not great and have washed out a lot of the highlights, but when he is all finished I shall get some better overall photos. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/ArmF.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/ArmS.jpg @Squigoth - cheers for that one, sorted it out.

Commissar Molotov Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I like the 'layered' effect on the Power Fist's armour plates. It's very consistent with the current crop of Mechanicus-related models (the Tech-Priest Enginseer, the Techmarine...)

Foolio_Displasius Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Ooo, didn't notice the "layered" Powerfist before. That's cool! You could always throw a purity seal on the right shoulderpad to cover the gap I mentioned. But you'll probably make it look good anyway... :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84385-adeptus-mechanicus-terminator-magos/#findComment-977665 Share on other sites More sharing options...

abstract incendiaries Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 Thanks for all the kind words. Here is an update he has had some gaps filled with greenstuff and a rivet added that fell off on the painted sections so I know that there are small blemishes that need touching up, again with bad photos as ever, but with any luck he will be finished by saturday night and i can get you some good photos on sunday. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/AF2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/AR3.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/AB2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/abstract_incendiaries/WIP/AL2.jpg I welcome any further comments.

Astaroth Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Looks great! Keep up the good paint job! My only comment on it is that it looks a little....un-technological (or something :blink: ) for a devoted follwer of the machine god. The decals and armor are all there, but the machine aspect is a bit lacking, if you know what I mean. Maybe a servo arm (purely aesthetic) or some homemade bionics besides his eye would do it, but from the look of it it might be too late to go chopping up his arms. Whatever you wanna do, man.

malika666 Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Remove the eaglewing from the stormbolter and add an Adeptus Mechanicus skull there. Also lots of scrolls and seals would be very fitting. He also seems to lack in bionics!

flyinghippo Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I personally think the red is a bit too bright but other than that it's amazing.

Agamemnon42 Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 He could use a servo-skull, and the Iron Halo seems too small. Do the arms attach where you put them, or a couple mm higher?

ArbitesAugmented Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 the iron halo idea is genius, and I like the fact that you've kept up the layered look from the adeptus mechanicus Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/84385-adeptus-mechanicus-terminator-magos/#findComment-985430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
