Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 @Hushrong: Dude I'd still go for some greasy BBQ. @HNL: Thanks! Plague Marine #4 makes his entrance. I call this particular piece "Melta to the Face". More like melta to the torso and head area, but it doesn't flow as well. His wide stance made the image really wide as well and you might need to click on it to get the full size. I'm not sure if he looks horrifying or comical since I've been staring at it the past couple days. Thoughts?

Gederas Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 I love it! I may (most likely will) steal that idea, because I've got EIGHT copies of the Death Guard half of Dark Imperium, and I don't want to have so many repetitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hushrong Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Yeah. You can have mine and I’ll subsist on the white bread, chopped onions, and pickles for the time being. :) Melta face is awesome. That’s definitely a sweet idea and sculpt to match. He looks like he opened the ark of the covenant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steal away. Do whatever you can to individualize them. Melta face is awesome. That’s definitely a sweet idea and sculpt to match. He looks like he opened the ark of the covenant! Oooh, Melta Face.

Steal away. Do whatever you can to individualize them. Yeah.... A lot of people at my FLGS got Dark Imperium.... Despite a lot of them not playing either army? So I ended up getting everyone's Death Guard for Cheap. And then I got 60 Poxwalkers from someone else. So that's a total of 220 Poxwalkers. Yeaaah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 Even I would have trouble customizing all those marines, but 220 Poxies? Ugh. Gederas 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gederas Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Yeah, I looked at the sheer amount of Poxwalkers I have and said "nah, not converting the cannon fodder at all". I learned my lesson with the ETL and the Escher Ganger based Cultists. Never. Again. :lol: Sgt. Blank and Dragonlover 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuskRaider Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 I'm not too sure how I feel about Thyroid Issue guy, but I love Pulled Pork Face. T.I. is a bit too bloated IMO, it creates an odd gap between his arm flubber and his body. I'm sure you have it handled though, you're the master of the green stuff.

Midnightmare Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 (edited) These guys have so much personality, and ‘Melta Face’ rocks!! I can imagine him disgustingly painted already. Grandfather N has been particularly kind to this fellow. As an aside, I don’t normally like chain fed Bolters, but it looks great on this model.

Hungry Nostraman Lizard Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Kage, you're gonna have to go with "Pulled Pork Face" as per Duskraider. To answer your question, yes, it's horrifying. What/how will you paint it? I must see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlamingDeth Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, your name is, it's Meltaface?" "That's right." "Do you shoot Meltas out of your face?" "It's metaphorical!" "For what?" "For...It is a name what strikes fear into the hearts of anyone who hears it!" "Yeah...Ok, whatever you say." EDIT: To be clear, it's a fantastic model, I just couldn't not say that. Edited August 20, 2018 by CardinalVirtue Reyner 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechanist Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Melta face is so good. The conversion just flows so nicely with the lines of the models linking from the gooey face down to the guts hanging out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reyner Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Meltaface is great - better name than Tazerface :D he kind of reminds me of Swampthing too. hushrong 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augustus b'Raass Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 You've made this and looked at it for three days before sharing and asking for feedback? I'm in awe of your patience... :O He looks fantastic, don't change a thing. :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 Thanks, guys. Not sure how I'm going to paint any of these guys yet, but Taserface/Pulled Pork Face will get the most disgusting paint job I can manage. Augs, this was attempt #2 on the head and there's 2 layers of GS which accounts for the time I was sitting on it. And to have some content in this post, here's a teaser of some practice attempts for one of the next plague marines. That's a 40mm base, so they're not exactly tiny.

DuskRaider Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I thought those were real maggots or meal worms for a moment, very convincing. Brother-Chaplain Kage 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sagentus Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 that latest plague marine is absolutely amazing, really hitting it out of the park BCK! Brother-Chaplain Kage 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 I thought those were real maggots or meal worms for a moment, very convincing. That's great to hear after trying several things to get convincing maggots. The only problem with the method that made these results is that it's leaving fingerprints in the GS, but with the segmented body it doesn't seem to be so obvious. that latest plague marine is absolutely amazing, really hitting it out of the park BCK!

rednekkboss Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I know his face is melty, but he'd be a great plasma gunner too. Great stuff! (as usual) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 That green stuff work is inspiring. It also leaves me a little envious, because I'm too cowardly to pick up my own green stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hushrong Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Oh man, you don't have a plague marine made of maggots and larvae planned, do you? If finger prints are an issue could you wear latex gloves, or this little finger ones? Of would that end up sticking to the GS? As for pulled pork face, I am interested in seeing what you come up with. Augustus b'Raass 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(as usual) That means a lot coming from a chaos master. There's some really good chaos modelers on the board (You, Dusk, and Augustus being a few) that cast a mighty big shadow. That green stuff work is inspiring. It also leaves me a little envious, because I'm too cowardly to pick up my own green stuff. I really need to get back to finishing up that video and making more so maybe people would be willing to give it a try.

Of would that end up sticking to the GS? As for pulled pork face, I am interested in seeing what you come up with. Made of? Very friendly with, certainly. I've tried using gloves with GS before and it sticks to the gloves worse than your skin, and even if you try to use lubricant to stop that from happening, the wrinkles in the gloves still leave impressions.
