grobrotz Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 After a long break I started a new marine conversion. I wanted to make him truescale because I cant stand those monkey SM anymore. There is still much to do, but I could not wait to show him, so sorry fot the bad scan. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v314/Grobrotz/TARANIS/Taranis.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88008-brother-taranis/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozenflame Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Whoa is that a normal power armour marine or a termie? A termie like that would look real amazing. btw, that marine looks like that one from the crimson fist illustration. The one with the plasma pistol, decorated power fist and the mirror. Did you intend to make that marine? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88008-brother-taranis/#findComment-1015333 Share on other sites More sharing options...
grobrotz Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 When finished it will be a normal power armour marine, it is far to small for a Terminator. Yes the CF Captain was a big inspiration, but as said before, still much to do on him.

The Terminator will be BIGGER? :) Hey, that would mean moving into Dreadnought-size territory B) On a related note, what backpack will you use?

grobrotz Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 Dunno, maybe the refularone, slightly converted. But first I have to finish the body. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88008-brother-taranis/#findComment-1015376 Share on other sites More sharing options...
--Lord_Panthro-- Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Holy :) That is the single biggest, most coolest looking marine of that size i have ever seen! I would love to see your interpretation of a Terminator... and a Dreadnought if thats the case!!! Groovy!

Dr Death Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Very cool but verging on the excessive for a rank and file dont you think? He looks a bit too terminator esque, i would try to make him more like the standard armour in look if not in size and proportion. What this does have in its favour though is wow factor but there will always be bigger marines...

grobrotz Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 @ Dr. Death: Im currently working on the shoulderpads glueing some rims on them, to make them look more like normal shoulderpads, there will be also cables running over his chest like in the older versions of the Mark Armour and a backpack will be added, so it will look like a servo.

Master Chaplain Astador Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 the only problem is this thread is from May. I don't know if Grobrotz has been on since. I don't think I saw him. But I would hope he will stop keeping us waiting for this final piece! Grobrotz if your out there, finish the model!!! Cheers, MCA.

cypher_zero Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Could try sending him a pm. Even if he doesn't get on here much, B&C sends you an e-mail that tells you you have a pm and to check it. That might get him on here if he isn't. cypher Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88008-brother-taranis/#findComment-1103489 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Chaplain Astador Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Good idea. But lets not discuss this, I see Nephren-Ka looking at the thread. And we're getting way off topic. Sorry Nephran. I'm going to PM Grobrotz Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/88008-brother-taranis/#findComment-1103494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellChyld Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 :cuss interesting conversion I agree but I think it should be more a terminator then a marine as it looks off in my eyes. Not sure how but it does. *shrug* hope he gives you all your tutorial though.

CM Dante Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 His head looks wayyyyy too small for the rest of his body. I agree with the others in that he looks more terminator than regular marine.

AlteriusMotive Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 He doesn't look like a termie, he only looks wierd cause we're used to the quote "monkey marines". If you look in your codex or at any pics of marines, they look exactly like that, maybe if he made the shoulderplates like normal power armour and the power pack it'd look more like a marine. I don't know why he hasn't posted anymore on him cause i think it is wicked.
