2′ x 2′ Warmachine Demo Board
I’ve been thinking about making another board for a while now, and after seeing a friend’s demo board I realized it would be best to try out the techniques I might use on a small 2′ x 2′ demo board. And of course I had to build a snazzy wooden frame for it.
Studio pose for Caine2
Fresh on the heels of my Madrak1 repose, I came across another caster I’ve wanted to play, but disliked the pose. First off, he appears to be shooting all around himself in a circle, this seems to line up perfectly with Caine1’s feat and not Caine2, Next, why does he have to be shooting in two different directions simultaneously? It almost seems more like he’s just randomly spraying some bullets around and hoping for the best.
Build up around the shoulder pin
Now that we’ve pinned, bent and glued the arms into their new positions we need to bulk up the area around the pins. You want to just get the general shape filled in but you don’t need any detail and you want to make sure it’s all below what should be the finished level. We’ll harden this bulked up layer which will make it easier to add on a thinner muscle layer that we can work on more easily than if the entire joint were soft. (more…)
The King, with head attached!
Since update #4 I got the leather loin cloth painted and painted all the metals directly attached to the MK. For the chains, attachment plates for more chains and the main collar I used the standard metal formula from the back of the Trollbloods book. For the medallions dangling from his waist I went with Brassy Brass and washed it with some greens and browns to age them. I used Brass Balls for the riveted plates on the collar to add something different, and washed it in greens to age it. I then glued on the head which made it feel so much closer to completion.
