scruff Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Ok after many distractions and a couple of holidays the model is finally finished so here we go with some pics. http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o322/scruffbc/DSCF2546.jpg http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o322/scruffbc/DSCF2547.jpg http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o322/scruffbc/DSCF2548.jpg Also for anyone who saw the WIP pics I took of this, I did decide to add an extra shade of red to the cloak to make the transition less severe. As always comments and suggestions always welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merkava Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Nice, how hard was it getting rid of all the icons? I have to do that after christmas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typical Cricket Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Very nice! I'm in the process of making my Space Hulk Termies into White Scars, so this is definitely a source of inspiration! How did you do that head, though? Is that a Genestealer's skull? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scruff Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 Firstly thanks for the comments so far, and now on to answering questions. Merkava, It can be a bit fiddly getting all the iconography off as there is a lot of detail around it which you will probably want to keep. In all honesty though I would say it is more time consuming than difficult so stick with it, oh and make sure you have a sharp knife. Typical Cricket, yes you're right that is indeed a genestealer skull with a bit of greenstuff work for the bits that look like terminator helmet and to make it fit in the gap left by cutting out the original head. I did try combining the skull and a spare helmet but just couldn't get it to look right. Here's a pre paint pic if it helps; http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o322/scruffbc/DSCF2107.jpg Oh and good luck with the white scars, all that white, shudder!

Haha, I did the exact same thing for my SW Terminator Chaplin! I took one of the skulls and spare termie helmet a bit of trimming and GS and cursing later voila...SW termie chappy! Did you make each ultra symbol seperately or did you make a GS mold for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
