in that case either GS or small globs of pva?

hairyyahoo · 11-20-2007

can't see pva working too well. it tends to loose a lot of the blobiness as it dries. gs is the way to go i think.

SteveBerenyi · 11-20-2007

i will be doing GS eyes.

Thanks for all your support guys!

hairyyahoo · 11-20-2007

thanks for making a crazy project that puts most of our to shame

SteveBerenyi · 11-20-2007

lol hairy, your puts my GS work to shame all day long.

and i am not sure about the avatar cloak/topknot thing. it was just in my bits box.

Wakim · 11-20-2007

When will you be treating us with some fresh pics?

SteveBerenyi · 11-20-2007

lol when i get the opportunity to do more work!!!

It is christmas Advertising Season and i work at making ads for the local newspaper..... = Not Much Time!

Wakim · 11-20-2007

I don`t want reasons! I want results!

PS Good luck surviving the winter

Krom_stormbrow · 11-20-2007

Harsh... but fair.

Do you work to live or live to work? We need updates

Wakim · 11-20-2007

Steve knows i meant it in a friendly tone, don`t you steve?

PS How much more do you plan to add to the mini before you can start painting?

Any other details safe for the face?

MAybe a little symbol here and there?

As for the base, will it include SM remains?

SteveBerenyi · 11-20-2007

the base will be mainly skeletons and the spare limb.

the eyes are one of the final pieces. the waist area needs a bit of work and i need to add the iris to the eye pendant.

also need to finish the mace tonight. I'll have a few last GS pics up tomorrow or the next day.

SteveBerenyi · 11-23-2007

OK updated Pic. just 1 though.

Started painting.
Have to re-think the base.

base-coated white then inked black wash now painting armor gray.

next is finish the armor base coat then do flesh/hair/wolf pelt then on to highlighting and re-inking then highlight again!

Wakim · 11-23-2007

The claw is AWESOME

But i`m not sure about the wolfhead... it`s.... strangely positioned.

Maybe it`s the angle of the shot, but it`s creepying me out

Dragoon King · 11-23-2007

Looking good, Steve. Keep us updated!

Battle-Ranch · 11-23-2007

just read through this through. I'm Impressed! keep it up!

i think its how far the wolf head sticks out from the shoulder.

looks good but that wolf head does draw your attention away from the rest of the model. perhaps this will mellow out after painting.. well see.

keep it up steve!

SteveBerenyi · 11-23-2007

well, the wolf's head i wanted to stand out, and i could not seem to get it to lay lower (might have something to do with how little i tried.) it will look something like the wolf on horus in this pic:

at least that is the plan

GriplionGremlin · 11-23-2007

kewl pic.

i think perhaps the reason you couldnt get it to lay down right is that the one in the pic is only the upper jaw and skull laying "down" the shoulder pad with the nose towards his elbow and the pelt going up over his armor. and the wolf head you have is the full head with the lower jaw. not sure if there are any bits out there with just the upper jaw that would have worked better. or perhaps a plastic wolf bit from fantasy?? perhaps hairy, erus or wolfpack would be the ones to ask about that.

model does look good over all. look forward to seeing it competed!!

Gregor Xenos · 11-23-2007

hmmm... if the angle of the wolf continues to be a problem; i suggest a small drill hole in mouth to support a spike or vent (protruding form the maw) to give the impression of an underlying structure that explains the odd angle.

hairyyahoo · 11-23-2007

unless you wanna rip it up and redo it this is probably a good idea. if you do decide to redo, slice the head between the jaws and place it back into position.

GriplionGremlin · 11-23-2007

sorry steve.

hope you didnt take this as me saying you need to yank this apart. wasn't my intention!!

r4wr89 · 11-23-2007

or perhaps file/trim out a tubey shaped hole in the wolfie head, and then fit it a bit closer ?you could even just cut the head part off and GS the actual fur, fur is surprisingly simple gs work :]

of course...all of those suggestions have a high risk involved : / either way, it looks amazing :]

Rellik · 11-23-2007

you did a excellent job on it!

Lord Commander Erus · 12-18-2007

Steve-o! Here is some inspiration for ya mate!
