From the Crypt Horrors and Talos + Dark Eldar + CSM-bits to three Grotesques in three days...i was quite pleased with these, i´m far from a professional, but they´ll do in our FLGC games just fine.

There was few details i liked especially :

- The "HUG ME!" -Grotesque pose is awesome
- The hooks in the backs, when they are released in to combat
- The wound in the side of one Grotesque, first a mistake in assembling, now a gaping wound

While videos are nice, because you get looks at the models you can't in pictures, I'd recommend posting some actual pictures in your post. It's a lot more convenient and will probably garner more positive reception than just posting a link to a video. Especially since this video is just a slideshow of pictures you could have simply posted in the topic.

That said, the conversions are cool, but I think the models could use more contrast as far as paint goes.

I second the post above.
The issues with a link to a video are;

That it requires a link external to dakkadakka; which can make some people wary.
Youtube isn't always available to people at work or other places.
A video, due to being either a slideshow or a rotation tends to mean that you don't get time to take in detail, before the video moves on, it then becomes a pain pausing and attempting to inspect.

That being said, I will give some feedback as you obviously went to the effort to make a slideshow I really enjoy the conversions, the arms are nice and chucky which I enjoy on grot models. They have plenty of movement too. The bases could do with some added detail, As at the moment it is quite a dark model, with the dark flesh and dark shadows. I'd consider a lighter looking base, as this will help contrast the model to the base and really draw the attention.

For improvements; the black could potentially do with a few highlights in places to help reduce its slightly flat feel.

For future videos/posts;
If you go with a video, I find the best and most effective is a video of the model close-up on a rotating base. This allows the model to rotate slowly while giving the viewer every angle and the chance to see the sides multiple times, really helping them get an overall feel for the model.

For posts, id say stick in photos on dakka where possible. You'll find it realitively quickand easy and you'll recieve a much better response here on dakka.

Thanks for the feedback, here´s photos too

Was moved.

Excellent

What do you reckon you will do with the bases?

Very nice job, I really like your work.

I went the classic way of making a handful of them with Skaven Rat Ogres but just ordered a few Crypt Horrors yesterday. Your example couldn't be better timed. I will absolutely take your work as example for my incoming Frankensteins!

Can't wait to build and paint them!
Thanks.
