posting from work
Been a while since I updated...life is somewhat on the busy side at the moment. I have, however, managed to finish building all of Squad Pestis, starting with the smallest Plague Marine in the history of Plague Marines...Mesdames et mes Messieurs, allow me to present to you: Bubo!
He\'s got as much detail as any other Plague Marine I\'ve done...he\'s just completely tiny
Just to give some idea of scale, here\'s Bubo with Neon Knight:
...he\'s just too cute for words. I have no idea why I got so attached to making pygmy conversions, but what the hell - I get some fun models out of it
And here\'s Twi\'lek, finished:
I especially like the horn sticking out of his shoulder - that was done in the same way as Kothaar\'s shoulderpad (see Nurgle 101 for details). Power armour-sized shoulderpads don\'t lend themsleves to this technique as much as Terminator \'pads, but it can be done.
And I didn\'t accidentally split the shoulderpad in half in the process.
Oh no.
That was another modeller altogether *cough*.
I\'m looking forward to painting up his robes for that \'warrior monk of Nurgle\' look...
I made an old school-looking Plague Marine for the current issue of Firebase, and now it\'s out I can finally stick a pic of it in here; he\'s one of the new batch of Plague Marines for Pandemic as well.
I got randomly inspired to make another Plague Marine late one night while watching \'Metalocalypse\'...I wanted to do a sort of one-year-on homage to Guts-Hanging-Out Guy, the very first bit of green-stuffing I ever did, and this was the result:
I love the guts on this guy
A worthy addition to Squad Pestis...
And, finally, here\'s Gothmog the Plague Champion:
He\'s been by far the most work I\'ve put into any normal Plague Marine, but I\'m well pleased with the final result; he\'s every bit as imposing as I wanted my Plague Champion to be.
For some reason I\'m very fond of his all-green-stuff right foot...
Here\'s a detail shot from before he was finished all over, but showing all the work on his head, right shoulder and torso:
...I\'m really, really pleased with him.
And now it\'s time to get painting...I can\'t wait to see how Squad Pestis look when painted up, especially compared to the old Plague Marines I have.
As always, all C&C is welcomed.
* so named because I got inspired by the horribly & asymmetrically deformed Orc Lieutenant of Minas Morgul in Return of the King

some great stuff going on here - very inspiring! i find chaos minis (nurgle in particular) are great for allowing your imagination to run wild when sculpting. great for textures too.
the twin is cool, as is gothmog. the spawn is cool and the feet remind me of the lickers in resident evil 2!

Okay dude! I havent posted anything in this thread, i dont know why but now i gotta!
Your oldschool nurglemarine is one of the awesomenessiest(i dont know if its a word or not but hey!) nurgle marine ever! I want to paint it! it feels like i need to paint it! Head exploding with possibilities! I like the other marines as well, but not as much. You dont see this much character in gw models anymore(especially in troops)! Some of your models are not my style but the oldschool one hit my softspot lol !

Incredible scuplting you have going on here. I took sculpting as a class last year for my junior year of college and that was hard working on stuff that is large; you\'re doing it at such a small scale!
How do you do it? Wet the green stuff down a bunch or use vasoline? Also, how do you keep it from getting your mit prints on it?
Beautiful work!

that look awsome but does it stick to your fingers like it does with me
Still looking sweet. Your sculpting is top notch.
Looking forward to seeing them painted.
From the ones you showed that are painted, i feel you could maybe break up the colours a little. Maybe have some with skin coloured mutations/tentacles or some different coloured armour plates.

You should share some of your stuff from Relic as well. I browsed a little tonight but will go back when I have time. Great stuff over there.
