‘Arm’ing the troops… July 5, 2010 at 3:58 pm
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.
I had to go back afterwards and do a little gap filling, where the sanding didn’t flatten out a few small divots, and a couple of the collars still need some attention
Also started detailing the bionic legs:
And then started in on the arms. These are being converted from assorted Terminator arms with the hydraulics and cabling removed, to make them look a little more like regular power armour. Here’s a couple of mock-ups to see how they fit together, with a regular Marine thrown in for scale:
It’s a bit of a relief to find that the bolter arms work… The left hand, in case anyone’s wondering, is from a 2nd-edition Chaos Marine. They had mammoth-sized hands, so work out pretty well for Terminators.
More soon…
