Lord_Maggot Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Hey all. Just finished flipping through my latest WD (From the UK) and I must say I love the scouts done by Darren Latham. This is mainly as the new scout heads don't look bad with most of the details hidden away. Lol. Can anyone provide an idea as to how they are done? I'm guessing they are Green Stuff sculpted. However I wouldn't have bothered posting if I was 100%. Something about them looks familiar as if they've maybe been GS casted/converted from another head but I can't recall which one. It could be that they've been sculpted so well they look similar to something but I thought I would post and ask for peoples help. Thanks in advance.

I'd be interested to know this too, as I wanted to do something similar. Looking at them though, I would say they were cast, probably off a respirator somewhere else in the marine range... Head Page Definitely cast off the following head - 1st Column, 4th Row. Might try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_Maggot Posted May 31, 2006 Author Share Posted May 31, 2006 Bingo that seems like the one. I looked through all the marine sprues I have now but couldn't find it. The new sprues have a different style head thats similar. I may have to use that one since I can't find an unpainted one. The only difference is the grill style breather.

Kuh Tathor Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 From the look of them the bottom is from the space marine tactical spruce while the top comes from the sniper boxed set. Since there are only one of each in each boxed set it is definitly a staffers project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimtuff Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 This may sound a little cheeky, but why don't you contact Razza on Warseer, as he's the guy who made them :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dammekkos Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 A few of his minis are in the eavy metal account on cmon, but I'm not sure who controls that account, though it's possibly Daren Latham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zman3382 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 its just the ventilator head from the old tactical sprue with some hair scultped on and night vision goggles from the scout sniper box... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtrAxX Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 No Judging from what I can see its the sniper scouts heads with the goggles on and such, but with the rebreathers sculpted on they wouldnt be able to cast those 5 times, do you see the same head in there? No..so it explains that its different heads from the sniper scouts box but with sculpted rebreathers. Vtraxx Out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
