Look forward to seeing what else you can come up with. The only thing I can say about the SM statues holding helmets is the helmets seem a bit... off.

Otherwise excellent work.

Thanks, Yeah i know what you mean about the helmets, hopefully the statues in the new shrines will look better, as they'll be in a different pose, resting their hands on Warhammers.

Ok, new project... This ones going to take a while, as all the pices are going to be moulded then cast, but first i have to make the master sculpts.

The first piece i've started (see pic below) will be a winged hooded statue holding a sword.
Following on from that I will be making a set of gothic style relief panels, featureing more hooded figures as well as eagles, swords and skulls (Lots of skulls).

I also want to attempt to make a set of space hulk style space ship panels, which will include 2 corridor tiles, a floor tile, a door tile and an open hatchway. If it works I plan to use them on wrecked or crashed spaceship terrain, with useable interior sections, giving your troops somewhere to hide or take cover on the battlefiled.

This may take a while to finish plus im still working on finishing my Tau Battlesuit Titan Project. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/507896.page

I will keep posting updates here as go, and if anyone has any ideas, questions or comments on what im doing please let me know.

^^me too!

And since no one else has asked yet, please post the WIP of the Falcon dude (excuse my lack of knowledge of the Imperium, I'm sure he's someone famous, but we Eldar don't alway remember everyone's names). He's amazing. What's he sculpted out of?

Really great stuff!

The falcon dude is the Emperor of mankind, I used an epoxy putty called milliput on most of him and green stuff on some of the smaller details.
No problem, as requested here are the WIP pics.

Yeah his eyelids are closed, i was going for a symbolic sleeping look, considering that the emperor is neither dead no conscious.

See, I was right! He is someone famous!

Really great stuff. I haven't worked with Milliput yet. How much time do you have to work each part?

Thanks for the WIP

Once mixed you have a good hour or two before it starts to dry, and then overall about 4 to 5 hours before its hard enough to handle, cut, sand etc.
Also when it's mixed you need to keep it wet, otherwise it just sticks to everything.

Here's just a quick update and a new pic..
next time I update he should have his wings detailed and his sword finished.
Then there's the base detail... Im thinking Gothic, alcoves and skulls.

Ok new update.. I've finished Sculpting the wings, robes and sword, still have a few details to add but that's the main body virtually done.
I've removed the plinth seen in the previous pick and plan to build another one, maybe a round one this time.
Next update should be the finished version, but it may take a week or so as I need to get my other project finished (my Tau Battlesuit Titian)

Sorry for the lack of activity recently, just been busy with other projects.
But now their finished I can focus once again on terrain, and to kick things off I bring you a few WIP pics of my winged statue and my little brick production line.
All of these are the master sculpts and will be used to make molds, so I can knock out multiple copy's.

On another note I'd like to bring your attention to a terrain competition being run here on dakkadakka.
If you'd like to enter, then the subject for the competition is Shrines, statues etc.
for more information head to the competition page, here's the link.
