Raziel-TX Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 Apothecary almost all done. Also, first time using flock (picked originally for WW2 US and German paras). Pretty darn happy with the results. Thanks for looking. Comments and critiques always welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Excellent work on the "beakie". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom Hero Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 That is a well done model! Texture and coloring really draws the eye. The beakie helmet has to be the part I love the most. The base is awesome and utilizes a scheme a lot of us shy from. Excellent use of flock and debris. Very nice job brother, very nice! ranulf the revenant and Raztalin 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel-TX Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 Bjorn-thanks! Custom Hero-appreciate the kind words! Think I am going to call this one done.

Raziel-TX Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) Hey ya’ll Long time no post. Got a hold of the new primaris not-techmarine and have slowly started working on him. Hope you like the WIP.

Raziel-TX Posted April 25, 2020 Author Share Posted April 25, 2020 Galloway-thanks buddy. Finally managed to get ahold of some choom guns from the web. jbaeza94-I haven’t played since the beginning of third edition so this is all about the rule of cool .

Raziel-TX Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 Some WIP of my “tech” primaris Marine’s helmet. One good/bad thing with taking these photos is that all your stray marks and mold lines pop out at you. Haha. Thanks for looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel-TX Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share Posted May 4, 2020 Something big this time. Just started on this little guy. ranulf the revenant 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel-TX Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share Posted May 4, 2020 Progress on the choom gun guy. Tried to make it look like it went through a “mag dump” or two. Hence the attempt at making it appear to be glowing. ranulf the revenant and G8Keeper 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel-TX Posted May 6, 2020 Author Share Posted May 6, 2020 Took a stab at free handing the chapter badge after finding a pretty easy video tutorial. I’m pretty happy with how this turned out.

Raziel-TX Posted May 7, 2020 Author Share Posted May 7, 2020 Not the best pic, little fuzzy, but wanted to post the second free hand attempt at the DA badge as well as initial work on the techmarine axe. Silly me went ahead and did the initial blade work first vice saving that for last. Face palm. ranulf the revenant 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel-TX Posted May 14, 2020 Author Share Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) Starting to wrap this guy up. Some minor stray brush marks to clean up but overall pretty happy with this motivator. Comments are always welcome. Random question. Anyone know how to change a thread title? Would appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Raziel-TX Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 Hey folks. Hope ya’ll are enjoying the weekend. I managed to get a bit more time in with the tech Marine. Still working out the pose and such. Thanks for looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel-TX Posted May 21, 2020 Author Share Posted May 21, 2020 Howdy folks, Some more work on this little guy. Overall pretty happy for the most part...well except for the whole axe thing. Didn't turn out the way I really wanted to, but I also think that I'm at that point that if I were to keep trying to work it, it will come out worse. Have to know when to cut your losses.

pawl Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) Raz, have you considered stripping the axe? If it's plastic it should be fairly easy to do, even of it's already glued in place. Would mean you could have another go without the paint getting too thick. =] Ed; I can't type. Edited May 21, 2020 by pawl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel-TX Posted May 23, 2020 Author Share Posted May 23, 2020 Pawl-If I could isolate the axe head and strip that part only, I would be all in. All ears as to how to tackle that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawl Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) Pawl-If I could isolate the axe head and strip that part only, I would be all in. All ears as to how to tackle that!I wrote a little guide to stripping models here that might be some use. Instead of soaking the whole model you could try soaking a cotton pad (like you would use to remove makeup or nail varnish) and squeezing it so that it sticks to the axe head (maybe use masking tape to help stop any running elsewhere?) and let that sit for a bit. After that using an old toothbrush or cotton bud (q-tip if American) should take the paint right off. No guarantees obviously, but both the acetone (metal) and IPA (plastic) work surprisingly fast. Edit: just checked again and the axe head wouldn't be quite so easy to isolate, but the chemicals themselves still work. A cotton pad for the edges to help loosen the paint, and a cotton bud (soaked again) to work towards the middle, perhaps?

Raziel-TX Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 Thanks for the link and tutorial. I’m going to have to give that a whirl. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawl Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 (edited) Not at all, please let me know how you get on! If you have any trouble let me know, and I'll see if I can't find a solution. =] As a thought, perhaps using blutac or similar around the head would prevent taking paint off where you don't want to.

Raziel-TX Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 Pawl-tried out some simple green on a separate piece. Worked like a charm. Now to crack the code on isolating the axe head. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawl Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 I would say that blutac is your best bet for sealing, and cotton pads/buds for applying. Good luck, hope it comes out alright! =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
