greenstuff Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 As a break from a couple of my current projects. I started this dark Apostle, based on the artwork on page 43 of Codex Chaos Space Marines: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkaposte.jpg and his base: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostlebase.jpg Greenstuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slotff Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Congrats on having the patience to cut plastacard! Thats an awesome base, I like the model, but perhaps you should post the artwork for those who have not seen it!... Awesome backpack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenstuff Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 This isn't the actual picture in the codex, but it's the early version of it: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Mid.../wp-13-1024.jpg Greenstuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazarus valghyran Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Very cool, excellent detail work. But there's something wrong with his legs... And whoa, change the pic in the last post to a link before the Mods beat you to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerminusEst Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Looks really good this far, I'll keep an eye on your progress ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenstuff Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 I now have the arms in the position i want, and have added his helm to the base. The idea is that it has been damaged and he has taken it off and cast it to the ground. http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle3.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle6.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle4.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle5.jpg Greenstuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenstuff Posted April 13, 2006 Author Share Posted April 13, 2006 Finished bulking his wrists out, and added his left fist, and a collar: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/DarkApostle7.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle8.jpg You can see just how bulky he is in this pic: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle9.jpg @Shuriken: What do you mean? if you mean what position, i am doing them in the position on the picture. ++Edit++ Am i correct in thinking i can buy Green stuff from a hardware store? under a different name i believe....

John Thompson Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Impressive work so far! There is no other name for Green stuff, unless you mean Kneadatite (sp?) which is the producer of Green stuff, White stuff, Brown stuff etc. It's the supplier for GW and Rackham and such, who repackage it and sell it. I usually get my GS from Heresy Miniatures. John T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunbabe Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 are you going to do the demon faces on the armour like daemonclaws model http://www.coolminiornot.com/99987 i do beleive it was posted here before the crash maybe give you some inspiration .keep updating and lets see how it turns out looking good so far as for the greenstuff it is kneadtite and can be found in big batches here http://www.heresyminiatures.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenstuff Posted April 13, 2006 Author Share Posted April 13, 2006 The daemon faces will be painted on rather than sculpted, as it may look a bit too busy with them sculpted IMO. Anyway, finished bulking out his right leg: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle10.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle11.jpg And a scale piccy: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle12.jpg Thanks for the Greenstuff info guys.

angel robertson Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Looking very good so far!! I love seeing things like this comming together! Have you used plastic in the leg at all or is it all sculpted? Do you have any plans for the crozius yet? Cheers, AR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
--Lord_Panthro-- Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I'm liking it. Though he does look a tad retarded with only one leg on at the moment, but I can see past that. Nice work! Panthro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenstuff Posted April 14, 2006 Author Share Posted April 14, 2006 Hehe. time for some updates. Hopefully tommorow i can get hold of some Greenstuff/Kneadite for the detail sculpting. But for now i started the other leg, and started wiring up his neck: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle17.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle16.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle18.jpg And a rough idea what he will be like: http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/Midnight_Emo_In_Pink/Conversions/Dark%20Apostle/Darkapostle19.jpg angel robertson: For the legs, i used some standard tactical marine legs, true scaled them. then bulked them out with milliput. As for the crozius, i think i will either make it from plasticard, or have a perusal through GW mail order, Greenstuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
