Dino:

Very nice sculpting as usual Warplock. All of this stuff is making me think of the Blood Bowl videogame thats coming out.

Snotling:

that’s really cool, now i want a BB-team, too!

but i’m not allowed to to do anything else than CDs… or the Gaolers come and sacrifices me…

yay! :hat off

AGPO:

Beautiful work Warplock, you must get tired of hearing it. I’m guessing these are display pieces? I have a feeling they’d be slightly difficult to use in a bloodbowl game

It was actually the illustration of the saurus BB player in may's white dwarf that inspired me...the kit is based very strongly on it!

No not at all, and thankyou all for all your positive feedback!

And how do you mean that they would be slightly difficult to play with? On all the dynamically posed models (for example the leaping skink and the latest saurus) i have glued pennies to the underside of the base so it doesnt fall over...its extremely effective!

And the thing is...not many people around my area play BB, but i have organised a game with Geckillan at GD UK, so anyone who goes is more than welcome to come along and have a look (and give me some much needed tactical advice! :P)

Other projects in the line, a entirely sculpted saurus scar veteran (which isnt going too well....cho dayom i can't sculpt saurus' faces ¬¬), and for a friend of mine, a skaven maneater (made out of an old metal rat-ogre) and a clan pestillans boss guy...a great fat bloke, holding a skink up by the throat...it pained me much to make that model(i love skinks, as you may have figured out by now :P)....but it was my first ever attempt at skaven, and methinks it has come off quite well!

And btw AGPO...what does 'AGPO' actually stand for?

Hashut’s Blessing:

It’s looking pretty good so far. I like the leaping skink on the helmet :smiley: Have you got round to making the referee/coach yet?

WarplockMonkey:

A small update chaps, heres the skaven boss guy i’m doing for a friend of mine







Comments?

Dino:

Looks good. It’s probably one of the fatest skaven i’ve been ever seen. I hope your freind likes it.

Godbob and his jolly rogers:

warplock i know it pains me to look at that poor skink but still he’s in a better place :frowning:

In Bloodbowl you have to place figures face up and down, which as many mordheim players have learned can be difficult with more dynamic models.

Well in general terms I stand for the Welfare State, equality for all and the abolition of the Monarchy. ;)

Ah right...well....what i could always do is 'fallen model counters', as in a crumpled skink on the floor in a awkward position, or holding it's head, but i dont think they would be that difficult to lay down, i shall haveto try them out in a bit!

You know what i mean....*shakes fist*

Kids these days...

Kera foehunter:

great job like the rat vs skink .You need to add man eating monkey to you lizzard army!! now that what im talking about

Hashut’s Blessing:

Looks inrecibly good! As always with your models. One comment, on the GIANT beer belly, add a little tear or something to break it slightly more. Either way, looks sweet as! I’m sure you can lay down most of those and any ya can;t, it should be fun to sculpt some crumpled players :stuck_out_tongue:

furrie:

love the rat holding the skin, it realy looks cool.

WarplokMonkey
Sorry dude, but as the marines say; "knowledge is power, guard it well."

WarplockMonkey:

Sorry for the lack of updates guys! Schoolwork has been piling up, the end of term is nigh, so i’ve had quite a bit on :~

However…the one thing that i have got, im incredibally proud of, remember the saurus i was talking about that wasn’t going too well?

an entirely sculpted saurus scar veteran (which isnt going too well…cho dayom i can’t sculpt saurus’ faces ¬¬)

WarplockMonkey
He is finished, and i must say that i am incredibally pleased with the result, the pictures do not show this, but i think he may be my best sculpt yet! sparkle sparkle

I christen him…Boq Ax













So whaddya think guys? Is he upto standard?

- Warplock

P.S: I am probably not going to paint this guy, with my last fiasco with a sculpted saurus, i am NOT going to risk it with this one!

Hashut’s Blessing:

Wow, due that looks excellent! Not sure why ya said ya cannae sculpt Sauri faces, as you’ve done superbly here. Things of particluar note are the weapon, the headcrest, the shield, the tail-rings and the feathers. Well, all of it! Kudos! If you’re scared of painting it, use VERY thin paints so ya needn’t strip it OR get a commissioned painter to do it…

WarplockMonkey:

Thanks Hashut’s Blessing for showing an intrest! glares at rest of members

Lizzies 'aint good enough for you eh?

Well for anyone who is interested, i have given him a scenic base, and done a few tweaks to the model itself,  and pics will be up shortly.

However…after many days of contemplation, i have decided that i shall have a go myself at painting him…but i am stuck for idea for a colour scheme  :~

Does anyone have any ideas?

Do you think i should just paint him in the same scheme as my bloodbowl team? Blue skin and bone scales? Or something completely different?

Also, if you could be so kind, could any new ideas be made and pasted on here using GW’s ‘interactive saurus painter’ which can be found here

The one that comes up with the scheme i like the most, gets 5 slaves :wink:

Please guys! Help a fellow brother in need!

-Warplock

P.S: I have already thought of a colour for the feathers, a mix of orange and purple :stuck_out_tongue:

al-hashut:

Amazing work Warplock. The feathers are done particulary skillfully, as is the face…and the back…and the totem…heck, it’s a great model

WarplockMonkey:

Well, like i said here are the pics!

Sousunou:

I think that its a really good sculpt and has made me wish i had the concentration and skill to do something like that. Out of interest, what did you use to sculpt that?
Was it green and brown stuff?
What did you use as the basis for the shape/armature?

…so…many…questions!

:cheers
