UltraRich Posted July 21, 2020 Author Share Posted July 21, 2020 I managed to get some damage and lenses done on the IG Storm Raven I also made some good progress on the cockpit. Ive got to build a new canopy as I wreaked the old one getting it off The Pounder, Etheneus, librisrouge and 6 others 9 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duz_ Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 :wub: This is great I always thought the Corvus Blackstar would be the obvious choice but this is coming along really well Starting to look more fitting for IG than the SM :lol: UltraRich 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 (edited) Ive been waiting for some flesh colours to arrive before I started on this head Ive tried a new technique of building up colour rather than washing the shades in. Ive then hit it with a very weak purple wash to put some colour in it. Im just not sure of the hue but its good to have variation! The arm is just test fitted Ive also got a mechanic on the table Edited July 25, 2020 by UltraRich ranulf the revenant, 4CIN87, duz_ and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 You're a skilled painter. The electricity flowing over the power sword blade look AWESOME. UltraRich 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expendable_Aquanaut Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Looking good! I think the new technique for the face worked really well. Where did you manage to find that model (the veteran guard sergeant or platoon commander or whatever he is)? I can never remember his name or anything but really love the sculpt. He used to be a named character, right? Anyway, keep these updates coming! Excited to see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a resin figure based on the kasrkin Sargent. The heads are a bit featureless so I switched it for one from anvil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted October 17, 2020 Author Share Posted October 17, 2020 New recruits incoming.... Starting with these while I wait for the new canopy for my SR Dropship WarriorFish, GreenScorpion, The Pounder and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted October 23, 2020 Author Share Posted October 23, 2020 I'll have a group shot soon but had a push fit guy who had had some paint issues in a previous life that came to me in an ebay purchase. I chopped him up and while filling the chest hole added a backpack in GS. Also dropped some Anvil arms and a Victoria gun too. Had a catachan head that looked like it worked with the rolled up sleeves. (those heads are big!)

WarriorFish Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with it, it's quite a different model in many ways from what I've seen! UltraRich 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted October 24, 2020 Author Share Posted October 24, 2020 I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with it, it's quite a different model in many ways from what I've seen! Someone over on Facebook did a conversion to IG that looked like Avatar walkers. Going to give that a go and try and make them look less Primaris In the meantime got the first three from this squad ready (except for the base edges) Flash is really washing these out though... may have to get a cheapo light box duz_, CyderPirate, Dr_Ruminahui and 5 others 8 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walter h Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) Legs? Thought canopy would be next. Then arms,or arms,and hands to hold the auto cannon. You are going for the Avatar,Walker? This is truly cool. No ultra cool. Wish I had tried this myself. Edited October 30, 2020 by walter h Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 I did think about building a half armoured canopy like the catachan sentinel but I thought it looks good with the exposed pilot Lets just say he has a shield :) Im leaving the arms as they are as I did have an idea to have the hand holding a dead nid but Im not sure how Im going to do that or if I want to as it may take focus away from the mini as a whole. Ive switched out the two body guns for a couple of Hotshot guns off my Taurox so thats made a big difference. Im painting it from the legs up so today is leg day! duz_ and walter h 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamansky Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) Sentinel chainsaws could be good as arms/'hands', i think. Edited October 30, 2020 by Shamansky walter h 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted October 31, 2020 Author Share Posted October 31, 2020 Ive finished the legs off Im not sure Im going to add all the leg bumpers to it as I think it looks cleaner as is Ive found a spare part in my Taurox kit that makes a great floor for a guardsman as the marines legs are way longer Ive also drilled out the hotshots Dr_Ruminahui, The Pounder, 4CIN87 and 6 others 9 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I love the Avatar film! I also love what you're doing here! I second what Shamansky said about the Chainsaw, would look really cool. UltraRich 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walter h Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Awesome! This looks fantastic. This is a better version of the sentinel. UltraRich 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share Posted November 1, 2020 I love the Avatar film! I also love what you're doing here! I second what Shamansky said about the Chainsaw, would look really cool. Its difficult to go for the avatar look as you need two arms and they are really short so to have a gun across the body will also be difficult Chain saw fingers may look a bit off but what about a full size chainsword..... with hazard stripes...... Im going to have a go with the spare gun hand and see what I can come up with GreenScorpion, walter h and The Pounder 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
