Finally finished the Helscarab! Feldrake did not feel 1k son's, and fits in for the rest of my tomb king sons.
Comment n Crit welcome. Any questions please feel free to ask.
View my galleries to see my other helbeetle (Nurgleeee!!)

DW.

Love the turquoise! Is that airbrushed or washed or?

thank you!
mix of both. airbrushed most of the body, when done I did a wash of nul oil to really make the blues stand out, then fast dry brush of the edges.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

Looks gorgeous, all of it

My only bone to pick is that the Scarab shell houses the wings, and would therefore be lifted up during flight, but in a universe like 40K, that doesn't really matter.

Normally yes you'd be correct in the shell being lifted up, but if you notice, not using "bug" wings, using the Egyptian style design (aka vulture wings). Look on the wings themselves and you'll see the symbol I'm talking about. Now, I did the lifted shell on my nurgle beetle.

Absolutely love the walkers! Great work!

Thank you, finishing up the decked out land raider and two rhinos to finish the army up. When done will take a full army photo n post up.
Then off to my next project of converting!

Ah, yes, I happily stand corrected. In that case, even more so than before, excellent work.

Nicely done!

Thank you!
My next and last project into the chaos marines will be slaanesh. I don't like the hell lizard model so much. Trying to come up with something... Possibly with tentacles...
Anyone have eyes on a squid or octopus I could convert and make flying?

Really nice work, love the colors !

Very well executed, great work!

Epic models and a brilliant paintjob to go with each one
I really love the Hellscarab idea

Thank you!
I like the heldrake model, but it didn't really fit in with nurgle or 1ksons
I found these beetles for almost dirt cheap (both beetles were cheaper than one heldrake)
I had most of the extra bits. The only thing I bought special was for the helscarab. Wanted them to be different so got the legs and mouth parts from the giant spider from fantasy
