I’ve been intending to update the Marines for a week now, but wound up working longer hours than usual at both of my other jobs, so only just got caught up…
I performed an arm swap on the first Heavy Bolter marine, to bring the weapon up into more of a ‘bringing to bear’ pose, and swapped his arms onto the second heavy marine, who is in more of an advancing pose…
Also finished basic assembly on the remaining two marines:
(more…)
I did a little more work on the Sternguard’s Heavy Bolter, folding up the bipod and adding a carry handle. Still a little more detail work to go.
I’ve completed basic assembly on the Commtech for the Sternguard squad. The pose is a little rough, as his hand is only tacked on at the moment… I’ll adjust it when I’m ready to glue everything in place and sculpt on the missing detail.
One member of the Sternguard squad will be a comm specialist, equipped with a vox-pack and auspex (just for show).
The Vox-pack is made from a Cadian backpack, with the bottom and sides trimmed down and the bottom and vents from a Marine backpack added on.
The auspex is a regular auspex top and base added to a Terminator Thunder Hammer hand.
More soon…
Because they Aaaargh!
Finally finished this guy off. He was started several years ago, as a birthday present for my (now) wife, and given to her unpainted so she could decide whether she wanted to paint him herself or not. She went with the ‘or not’ option, and so after a bit of a wait, here he is:
A little more Sternguard tinkering. The buyer wanted a Heavy Bolter that looks a little more like a conventional heavy machine gun.
I have made up this prototype, as a sort of ‘proof of concept’.
The inset is after a little photoshopping to try to show how it will look finished off, as it has a few minor details still to go on.
Got a little more work done on the True-scale Sternguard…
Started with sanding down the torsos to get them nice and smooth and armour-ish.
A short while back, I built a Pre-Heresy Raven Guard Dreadnought as a commission. This build was originally documented on the forums here.
Well, for those who would like to see how it was done without wading through the forum thread, the WIP walkthrough is now also up in the Workshop here.
Meanwhile, for an alternate take on the Pre-Heresy Dreadnought, have a look at Dave Taylor’s blog here for his ‘Dreadnought Rylanor’.
Finally found a few spare minutes to sort out the final pics for a Female Inquisitor conversion that I built on commission a while back…
She was built from a female body blank (from Maidenhead Miniatures) with a fair amount of putty work.
You can find the pictures in the gallery here.
To see how she was put together, check out the WIP thread over on our forums.
