True scale and then some. Emperors children marine.

EDIT: I should have stated in the title that it's WIP, sorry.

 

Sorry again for the less than perfect pic and the fact that I forgot to put an IG or marine there for comparison.

He essentially tops an ogre by a millimeter or so and a cadian is tall enough to headbutt this guy's belt buckle.

(EDIT: Correction, the cadian is a bit taller than that...so it's not as bad as I first thought.)

Needless to say, he ended up being a bit...on the bigger side, right? :P

I might make a diorama for him...or maybe even of an entire squad of six?

 

Should have taken a pic of him straight from the side though...those pics (especially the one on the right) don't

really show his pose as well. I'll try again later to get better pics, ok?

One idea I had was that I might chop off the chainsword of a SOB repentia and put her there as a slave, seeing

as they already look the part.

 

And for those who wonder what is in the background...well, it's just where I keep all my dice :ph34r: :

Looks fine, he certainly looks tall enough. But why the small head? That just makes his arms and legs abnormally long. Nice looking GS work.

 

And many a miniature is saved from plastic projectile doom by the infamous dice box. B)

Is this your own GS work, or is it built on top of the regular stuff? Good stuff, nontheless :)

 

 

Oh, Cypher441, I see you too have read JC's book:

"When the Romans invaded England, they went home to celebrate and didn't come back for 80 years. Why? Because they couldn't find it and, if they did ask for directions in France, they didn't listen" B)

The armor distorts his proportions a bit as it's a bit bigger than the man inside (especially the shoulder pads). I

think the problem lies more with his long neck than his head...but as the head wasn't natural to begin with I

chose to go with it. He's a chaos marine after all. Mainly I put it there because I feel it looks properly disturbing. :)

It's built on top. I used the berzerker running legs with spacers as a base.

looks fantastic and i wish i could get my greenstuff work looking just like that. To me it doesn't matter too much about perfect proportion when it comes to making chaos marines, they are meant to look freaky, I thikn you've achieved this weirdo freaky looking marine, very nicely done. The only thing that struck me was his tiny boots, makes me think that he forgot to put his marine boots on and he's wearing his marine slippers instead :devil:

 

great work

Keen observation. I admit I actually forgot about finishing them...

Thanks for reminding me.

:devil:
