Rune Priest Ridcully Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 And Wrong thread again, I do apologize, blame the sugar and assyrians, I do apologies. Dorn does look brilliant though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 See I called this months ago. That is the best Dorn ever. The Lysander conversion in his shadow is excellent, but nobody even cares. Dorn is magnificent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrannicide Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Your version of Dorn is literally on par, (if not better!) than FW's Angron sculpt. Bravo mate! :D Cannot wait to see paint on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now that you mention it, I have been a good boy today and started painting Dorn :D http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/rogaldornpip1.jpg http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/rogaldornpip2.jpg http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/rogaldornpip3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexCrute Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 See now if Forgeworld's Dorn ends up disappointing me (not that that's likely), I can always copy this one. I am in a happy place right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that whomever pulled the job of doing FW's Dorn might see this and have an aneurysm, stellar work :D Thanks for the high praise, but I doubt I could match whoever they get to sculpt Dorn, FW have some pretty amazing sculptors ;) Much awesomeness is found herein!

Maybe with some big rods pinned to a board to bend the thread around that might work, and then you just cut them into the desired shape with pliers afterwards :) See now if Forgeworld's Dorn ends up disappointing me (not that that's likely), I can always copy this one. I am in a happy place right now. Hehe I hope they are descent and at least waits a few years before doing Dorn so I don't have to retire mine too soon XD And if it ends up disappointing (I doubt it though) I'll have mine :P But I am countingon the Dorn model they eventually do will be awesome, so he might be a showpiece only, but only time will tell :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the damned artificer Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Not enough done on Dorn for an update, but I thought you guys following this thread might like to see my progress of one of his brothers, the red angel :D http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Angron%20pre%20and%20post%20heresy/AngronWIP.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder_god Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Awesome Angon. Love the blood spray. Iut your squiggle method to use on my Contemptor dread over in my Space Wolves thread. I think they came out just fine! Thank you for sharing how to make those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trysanna Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 How in the Great Eye did you do that blood spray? Its amazing. Also, I like how to gold is coming out. Very nice. -Tarvik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About Agron, I like it very much too but I think he isn't enough shiny! but the blood! how did you do that????, can you explain it please? very good job sir!

Lachdannan Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Very cool paintjob and as mentioned that blood spray is impressive. Like others I'd like to know more about that! As for blood itself, do you Tamiya Red Ink or something different? Either way great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the damned artificer Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 Thanks guys, and Thunder_god you are very welcome mate :) About the lack of shine I decided I liked a muted brass look better :) The blood is clear styrene manipulated over a naked flame (it takes a few tries to get a good shape), cut it to the desired length, glue it in place and cover with tamiya clear red, easy and effective :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
