Dempalax Do Kier Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 http://www.coolminiornot.com/pics/pics10/img44a01a981b949.jpg Lots of minor convertions and some freehand. The members of B&C were the only ones, who saw pre painted stage ("Be proud" - I mean - "you`re the chosen ones" :devil: ) So this is final version, shown at Crystall Hammer painting competition. It won nothing and it was total surprise for me. Must say, I`m still shocked. and link to cmon: http://www.coolminiornot.com/125743 Would be nice to see your comments.

thebigtea Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 If that didn't win anything I really want to see pics of the things that did. That is a fabulous looking mini sir. Very impossing without the normal over that top possing that is comon place in GW stuff. Well done!

major buzzmore Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 That sir is a great piece of work. any chance of reposting the WIP pictures ? I am very interested in how you did the legs ?

Cpt. V Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Very nice, really like the pose, as well as the modeling Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90383-orion-the-emperors-chosen/#findComment-1039898 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byronas Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I remember the wip you posted and I gladly see that you have added some extra details to the model (and removed others that made it look "heavy"). Those "wrist-guards" are AMAZING! :devil: The model has a very unique armour and I am suprised you didn't win just because of the conversion. Great work and inspiration for all who want to create a unique space marine armour. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90383-orion-the-emperors-chosen/#findComment-1039903 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimdarkness Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 OH a dark salamander. No company markings no squad number and the chapter icon is painted green. saying that it would take me 5-6 years to make something even close to what you did here. Looks good should be darker and better luck with your next project.

Obliterator Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I really like the pose, very menacing :devil: . I enjoyed watching all these little details on the armour, but I was surprised you left the loincloth blank. Maybe a simple dark green rim would have made a difference in the contest.

JaM_TW Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I dont vote THAT often at CMON (anymore), but I gave you a 10. Seeing as it's a 9.5 now (and probably will stay in that region), I too am curious about the other models in your competition. Because yours is well executed, nice pose, base, colours, and NOT over the top. I like it !! :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90383-orion-the-emperors-chosen/#findComment-1040006 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Lysander Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 the chapter icon is painted green. saying that it would take me 5-6 years to make something even close to what you did here. Looks good should be darker and better luck with your next project. I agree with Grimdarkness, not painting the chapter badge white is an error, but there is so much right with the model, I will ignore the few wrongs happily.

Grand Master Belial Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Beautiful! I ;) it! I agree that the DA Wings need another color, but it still exceeds my ability. If they ever have a Golden Demon in Russia, the rest of the world better be prepared to :huh: . There appears to be several awesome painters in Russia.

xRagex Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I love the shoulder pads and the two swords it has sort of a "come get some" look to it and people should be harmed bodily for not atleast placing that in the top 3.
