Urien Rakarth is in good shape, with 5 days it sor still not and that was his last artwork: Thing promise: that is my interpretation of the codex TALOS that I found a little monobloc and square among GW, with a certain lack of parties or head organic to make a monstrous creature.

This time I have the photographs of departure!

I have to be éssayé most faithful drawing.

A corps of scorpion scales (carapace armoured) cut in polystyrene and a dart pva glue which bears guns gaps, (in polystyrene and pva) with a wing ( rudder raider),

Two arms massive, (in polystyrene) one for the scourge of arms the other for the weapon of a bolt acc;

Two arms with hand, one to the double syringe, the other is the gun Liquefier ( some will still be disappointed but good it is not integrated, the talos is a monstrous creature and I consider that it has a conscience enough to keep operational, as its weapons of elsewhere)

A hand comes from a child of the chaos and the other three are in toothpick, (yes dsl)

The head of talos is a helmet in reverse reaver and the GS ( eh yes)

It behind a ribembelle of brackets, scourges and masses under its abdomen, (the scourges)

It is strewn small syringes and vials of various Drugs on its right arm.

The wiring and other sons are of the cord of guitar of electrical wire; The ax is in plastic card only without GS it is finer, more pointed, not as that of my grotesque, and therefore more vicious..

The gun Liquefier : basis of launches of darkness, plastic card GS, wire electric for the breath, cure teeth, straw plastic, tube transparent, cotton stalk and piece of rifle cracker + cord of guitar.

The guns of the dart cracker for screwdriver are launches keltois with a addition of enlarge, and ailerons in GS.

The double syringe represents the ichor injector, it is all in toothpick and needles in plastic card.

The scales have been ridges retouched the GS for more precision, joints and the small scales on the top of the dart.

I believe not to forget anything, ah if the blades ridges are weapons of acc of or or the ailerons in rab of reavers and raider. That is otherwise base not definitive and paint in courses:

Body: metal bronze aged + border turquoise reavers style, arm organic: flesh color green violet grisatre style scléroderme joints: in silver

Weapons: with the turquoise
Blades and scourges: silvery and rusted
tubes joints: in green and chainmail

Soon pictures of paint finish, do not hesitate to criticize. Thank you

Can you post in english please?
Also, the site your hosting them on is slow to the extreme, any chance of just uploading to dakka instead?

Je ne parle pas très bien [le] français, mais j'aimerais beaucoup l'apprendre de façon plus approfondie.

J'aime vraiment votre conversion! Bonne utilisation de pièces tyranide.

C'est le mieux que je peux faire.

Sweet looking build...too bad the vast majority of people on this site wont be able to read the text...

Me gusta mucho. Has hecho muy bien.

If it helps, this is what Google Chrome tells me was written.

"Urien Rakarth is in good shape, 5 days he can not sleep still not here and his latest work:
As promised: here is my interpretation of TALOS codex I found a little piece and square at GW , with a certain lack of body parts or head into a monstrous creature.

This time I have start photos!

I tried to be more faithful to the design.

A body of scorpion shells (carapace armor) carved Styrofoam and glue pva
A dart bringing the guns spark, (polystyrene and PVA) with an aileron (rudder raider)

Heavy arms, (polystyrene) one for the flail and the other for the weapon to melee a cleaver;

Two arms with hands, one on the double syringe, the other holds the gun liquefier (some will be disappointed but still good it is not included either, the Talos is a monstrous creature and I think he has a conscience quite workable on hold, as its weapons for that matter)

A hand from a child of chaos and the other three are toothpicks (yes dsl)

Talos is the head of a helmet of reaver upside and GS (yes)

He drags a ribembelle of hooks, flails and masses in his abdomen (the plagues)

It is full of small syringes and vials of various drugs on his right arm.

Wiring and other son are of the string of the guitar cord;
The blade is a plastic card only without GS is finer, sharper, not like in my ridiculous, and therefore more vicious ..

The gun liquefier: base of spear of darkness, plastic card GS , electric wire for the blast, toothpicks, plastic straw, transparent tube, cotton stalk and part of gun spark + string of guitar.

The spark of dart guns are the tip of spear of darkness with an addition of suspensor, and the fins GS .

The dual syringe injector represents the ichor, it is all in the hands toothpick and plastic card.

The dorsal scales have been retouched to GS for more of accuracy, joints and small scales on the top of the stinger.

I think not forget anything, oh if the blades are back in arms of cac of Cerastes or the fins rab of Reavers and raider.
This is not final if not base and painting in progress:

Body: Aged Bronze + metal edging style turquoise Reavers,
arm organic: greyish green flesh color purple style scleroderma
joints: in silver
arms with turquoise
Blades and scourges silver and rusty
pipe joints in green and chainmail

Soon the photos of the paint finish, do not criticize. thank you"

LOL that's not "Do not criticize, thank you" but "don't hesitate to criticize, thank you".

And the pics load so slow because they are so damn large (up to 3000x5000 pixel). I attach two of them with reduced size for convenience

Impressive.

Cool conversion! C'est Magnifique! As a plus SPEAR OF DARKNESS sounds so much cooler than Darklance.

J'aime la conversion! C'est très précis à l'art illustrant le Talos et vous avez fait une miniature impressionnantes en utilisant les matériaux que vous avez fait.

La plupart des membres de Dakka Dakka sont anglophones comme moi, mais l'Internet est une excellente ressource pour les traductions.

Avez-vous une photographie du modèle peint encore?

Most members of Dakka Dakka are english speakers like myself, but the internet is a great resource for translations. I took French in high school and can follow your post easily, but have to look up certain words. You might try Google Translate to converse with your American or English counterparts.

Do you have a photograph of the painted model yet?

And now the Talos "home made​​" in the parade of suffering, thank you for all the advice!
(for no more than 10 euros ..... carved stuff fast enough in a week, painted in half)











Afterward there are details that I already know to retouch the photo does help to realize
I think the reflections on the golden gun, forgotten here and there or other information,
Otherwise thank you for your advice, and thank you for the pictures raf.

Very nice indeed - a great use of foam for carving as well - not seen that done before

I love the paint job and the sculpting on the base looks realy good

That is fantastic! There is so much going on in that model, any Haemonculus would surely be proud!

Has anyone else noticed that the tail in every single Talos conversion looks exactly like a phallus at some stage of the WIP shots?

No? ... yeah, me neither...

Wow.

Thats all i can say,
Wow.

That looks depraved, deadly and hellishly painful!...I love it !

Very nice stuff! I would very much like to see the rest of your Dark Eldar.

Really liking the scratch build but am a little less convinced about the paint job.
As someone said the model has lots going on with it (which is great) and I feel the paint job lets that down somewhat.
Im not sure the blue on it works and the rust effects dont allow one to pick put the finer points nor the overall look the model is going for.
However great work overall!

Anyone wanna put that en francais for me?
