Bungicats Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Ok very first time posting here, however I have stalked many of the posts for a good long time. I have been working on this army since about 3 days before dirt (hint: forever) and I am in need of some CC. I have taken several pictures from different angles. His wings/backpack are only magnetized and I know the blue stuff is showing on the hand with the book and the staff. I am quite reluctant to glue them on permanently until I feel confident about the model. Thanks! P.S. Apologies in advance if there is a picture limit.

Dark Apostle Thirst Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Love the green, but I can't help think (especially with that nicely sized Crozius) "HULK SMASH!" :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HJL Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Very nice. Put more pics up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 @ DA Thirst - thank you. I was going for a more demonic green, but I am still grasping straws in the paint dept. @ HJL - Oh no worries I have plenty of photos planned but sometimes I tend to be a little scatte...oh look a blood thirster *runs off* I am currently working on a daemon of sorts for the wb and will get a photo once I can get the (expletive) thing to stand properly for more than 2 seconds with blue tac!

Bungicats Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 Ok several photos here. First few will be of a WB daemon that is in between the "how do I want it to look" & "ok now to attempt some green stuff." The last few are of my WB that I finally think is ok (been messing it on/off for several years)m I get distracted easily... And yes I noticed the CAT fur on this model after I uploaded the photos. Seems to me I should just dip the :tu: models in elmers glue and then rub them on the felines (3) and maybe a canine (2). CC is greatly appreciated because it is always my goal to get better and learn new techniques etc. P.S. I want to say out loud that alot of these ideas come from places all over the internet, including here. I give all credit to those who offered their own inspiration and hope to offend none. Here he is, in rough shape atm. My son informed me he is making a ^_^ gesture /sigh Well anyways I intended for him to be holding a recently de-capitated bodie while the head was flying off the edge of the axe blade. Mucho blood and gore to be had for all! Sorry quite blurry as is the next one. and now the cat fur covered test model >.< Guess I should add that the dead flesh colored *booties for lack of a better word* are my attempt of explaining these (my) troops have been foot slogging through billions of dead bodies over the years and instead of constantly cleaning the muck off, they started *fusing* it with their armor. Not decided wether I will go bloodier or right script on them as of yet. Ideas? ugh another mould line!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Apostle Thirst Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 That is easily one of the best daemon princes I have ever seen :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 /Blush thank you for the kind words DA Thirst. I only hope my subpar painting and green stuff skills will do it justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 The deamon prince is aggressive as hell. I like it. Are those Hive Tyrant legs? They really change the pose. Look forward to some paint on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted September 12, 2012 Author Share Posted September 12, 2012 Yes they are legs from a tyranid figure that got a little too close at one point. So are the appendages on his side. I figure that the Tyranids absorb some DNA from the foes (or at least thats USED to be true) So the prince took a shortcut and just cut and paste to make things happen quicker, leaving ME with all GS that little ;) ! I will get her primered and the beginnings of some paint next week sometime when I am back home. In the mean time she can just cool her jet..erm sit and pout!

Odsox Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Yes, yes, it's all lovely, now where did you get that Crozius? Tell me. TELL ME NOW. Od. P.S. Love your conversion work, that's some great stuff. I especially like the four-armed daemon prince with Bloodcrusher head. BUT SERIOUSLY THE CROZIUS WHERE DID YOU GET IT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted September 15, 2012 Author Share Posted September 15, 2012 So...you like the crozius then eh? LOL no worries I saw a conversion like it so I *borrowed* it as well. It is made with 2 chaos marauder horseman banners/icons. The bottom half of it is from the CSM lord sorcerer rod. Hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 Ok just wanted to post some updates on the WIP daemon. He is no where near done but due to the powers that be (prolly chaos) I've had less time to work on it. Sorry for some of the pictures, just realized the pic of the axe is just entirely to shiny. C/C appreciated. Thanks Bungi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Apostle Fitz Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 love yours stuff. man i'm using the same color scheme for my daemonic bitz in my WB army. Also thanks for the crozious, i saw it before somewhere but haven't been able to find it until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted November 6, 2013 Author Share Posted November 6, 2013 Ok I am dredging up this ancient thread to show I do actually complete projects (eventually). I have been working on this model for a little over a year now on and off. Although I don't feel its 100% complete I wanted to put it up here and get some feedback. I was tying with the idea of giving the staff wrapped in flesh something more; maybe some litanies or blood? Anyways here she is for you to view and c/c is always welcome and appreciated! Nothing like *microscopic* close up to show lines and paint splatter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 The Demon is absolutely over the top. I just feel like it is a tad too asymmetric. A touch of something bulkier on the side opposite his super-crozius could help the composition a lot. Not something as big as the crozius, but just a bit more bulk. I would try to break up the yellow a bit, too. Some of those lines you typically see extending along the scythes on Tyranids may have done some good. Striations? I don't think that's the right word... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted November 6, 2013 Author Share Posted November 6, 2013 @ Firepower - thanks for the c/c. I tried the scythes and spiky parts in a bone color scheme, like the groin cloth, but it also seemed very distracting. As for the crozius, I feel it is a tad large but the other daemon weapons supplied on the sprue just seemed inadequate. I will endeavor to improve as always, thanks.

Bungicats Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 So I figured I'd post my final update for the Gal Vorbak here and just *try* to link it to CoC VI *crosses fingers* So to avoid an inevitable wall of text here they are: Group shot: 1st from left: 2nd from left #1: #2: Center #1: #2: 2nd from right, #1: #2: Far right, #1: #2: As always c/c appreciated and welcomed.

bloodhound23 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Love the Gal Vorbak. They look JUST the way I imagined them as I was reading The First Heretic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geektom Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Great stuff, man! Your demons are truly scary! Love the fluff of the tyranid combining DNA with the demon, too- brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Really love the conversions on the prince but I agree with Firepower, that mace is far too big and there's an awful lot of yellow. The Gal Vorbak look great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted November 10, 2013 Author Share Posted November 10, 2013 @Blood - Thanks for the compliment. I imagined them being a *colorful* group without ending up looking like confetti. @Geek - Yes not quite sure where I developed the DNA thingy. I remember joking with the LGC, back when I had a store, that IF the Tyranids actually were coming our way we would colonize a planet with cows. This would be our saving grace as by the time they got here, if they managed it, the would be docile plant eaters. We'd essentially have been invaded with black-n-white nids that mooed! @Tanith - yes I am currently working on a less obstructive mace and deciding what to do about her yellow talons. Maybe a white washing lol. Thanks to all for looking and/or commenting. It's very motivating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geektom Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 @Tanith - yes I am currently working on a less obstructive mace and deciding what to do about her yellow talons. Maybe a white washing lol. Use a wash of sepia over the whole claws, then when that is 100% dry, wash the thicker parts near the body with a watered down 1:1 brown, like Devland mud, or earth shade, or whatever they are calling it these days. Highlight the edges with screaming skull, and then feather/blend it at the tip, also. Should keep the overall color, but take away some of the unnatural brightness.
