I thought I\'d share this here, work in progress.

Oh, here is my site if you wish to see more stuff:

Those legs look like plastic, so if you sculpted them

It\'s apoxie sculpt. Try some, it\'s a little different than GS and slightly harder to use at first but after some time it\'s great.
Apoxie Sculpt
I\'m amking the abdomen right now and will have pics tonight, may be monday.

Looking good so far. Can\'t wait to see the rest.

 

[hivetrygon]

Next update. I\'m going to be getting into the hard part after I finish the back layers today.

 

[supervike]

I\'m not exactly sure what it is...but I do know I like it!!

Would you mind posting a pic with a ruler, or an established mini so we could have an idea of the size and scale?

 

[matty1001]

iv been looking at the nid stuff on your website, these IMO are so much better than the forgeworld counterparts, and i would definately consider buying these versions! (If i had the money!)

 

[Talion]

I like it you can really sculpt.......however

It\'s doesn\'t look very tyranid to me (at the moment) It seems very skinny, and a bit too humanoid to be Tyranid.

but hey it\'s still a WIP and could look completly different at the end.

 

[Thecadian]

at the mo id say it was more eldar. for tyranids it needs lots of legs

 

[XeO3]

Damn, those are incredible sculpts.

This one, for a tyranid, is kinda scrawny though. Don\'t hesitate to beef him up some!

It\'s going to be a stand in for an Eldar titan. I\'m going to use VDR to make a walker wrecker out of him. Big sword and such. It\'s looking more and more like Evangelion though, and I\'m not sure how that happened. DOH!

 

[hivetrygon]

This is a huge update. The pic is big as well, so I\'m setting a link to this one:
Eldar Titan

 

[XeO3]

thats coming along very nicely! a little feedback if i may:

- It still looks a little too skinny and organic for an eldar titan. I imagine it\'s still far from completed, so you may have plans to stabilize it and beef it out a bit.

-On a very positive note, i really like the asymmetry, especially in the shoulders!

Cant wait to see your next update!

Sorry i didnt mean that this was a nid, just that i had been looking at the nids on his site! didnt mean to confuse anyone! lol

 

[hivetrygon]

lol I actualy thought I posted the wrong pic the first time. lol

I\'m going to try and beef it up with the armor but have to set it aside for a bit to figure out exactly what my plans are. I\'m going back to work on the death guard titan and a tyranid I owe someone for a few days until I work out the issues. Comments are allways welcome, I love them, they help spure ideas.

 

[Ogrebane]

I think the only reason he looks so fragile is the shoulders and chest are so broad. great job looks very eldarish to me.

Oooooh I love the angel-like sculpt ^_^
Looks wonderfull - what do you plan on doing with the head and arms?

The head, not sure yet. I was going to do a wraithguard like look but now I\'m thinking otherwise. The arms will be same as the legs yet reversed. I am going to put a spear in the plain arm and the other might have a flamer, unless that gets incorpirated into the weapons shaft.

 

[hashmallum]

If I may give you a hint - I believe that the head should be as simple as possible - like the one on Ysis mini for Dirza, or Eva 02 helmet

 

[hivetrygon]

I was thinking of a Dirz\"ish look, so I think you are spot on. I\'m probably going to decorate that head crest though, thinking of a fire dragon look for it.
