Thanks a lot!

I'm putting some paint on the raptors at the moment, and the dynamic berzerkers are done - here's a couple of pics:









I'm still experimenting with my photographing - I'm using a couple of pieces of wax paper as a diffuser for the flash, but the models still seem overlit and flat.

Perhaps put lighting on both sides of the model? And wow, I love that guy on that lamp-post-thingy. "MORE BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!.. BUT FIRST- LET ME FIND THEM"

Is it just me or have you left the bagpack-thing of the last 'serker unpainted?

Man you're on fire with these guys. Mega inspiring. I had wondered how the GK head would look on WE Termis and you have shown me that they look awesome. The 2nd Slaughterfiend is looking great as well just needs some trophy racks. The zerker on the lamppost has to be my fav conversion yet. Awesome.

Beautiful work G Ras... as Biohazard says, very inspiring. Definitely have the right feel to them.

Thanks, man - I'm definitely going for a very specific feel.

I really like the poses and how they feel almost natural for the berserkers to be acting that way!

If you've got cash or interesting bits, I have a defiler that's seen better days but could possibly be of use to someone of your talent level!

I love the scar like mark around the eye of the first berzerker. He's very cool. The one hanging from the lantern is super well done. The pose is very well done! The two handed chainsaw halberd with the chain wrapping down it is definitely my favorite weapon though! I will likely steal that for some of my orks. It's suuuuper cool!

I concur and will also be doing the same thing!

More amazing conversions fresh from the forge! Loving it so far

If you have a couple of zerkers left. You should really try to make some arm blades, something coming out of the forearms.

Ohh two handed chainsword, hihihi, (<- evil little laugh)

Bloody awesome... nuff said

Any word on the progress of the other slaughterfeind and the storm-raven conversion you are working on?

Like Spider Zerker (The one on the street light)

Nope - I'm hard at work on the raptors - I really want to get them and the display board ready for armies on parade.

Thanks, thats a pretty good idea. I'll do that.

Thanks a lot - regarding the first berzerker, it's actually his helmet thats missing a piece - pretty cool detail.

Hooray! Inspiration for the daemon prince has finally struck, and this is the progress so far:





Still needs a lot of work, but the basic pose is getting there. I need just the right head (suggestions are kindly recieved), and he's going to have 4 arms, which I'm thinking of replacing the hands with large tyranid talons. Also lots of green stuffing, making some hooves, and a giant jump pack as a sub for wings.

I think the heads off the Khorne Bloodcrushers is pretty sweet! I do like the idea of the 4 arms, and maybe make something using multiple rending claws and some talons.

That Khorne Berzerker on the lamp post is really well done.

Easy to imagine him climbing over everything looking for targets for his bloodlust!

I've been planning a similar lunging pose for my next DP. I'm glad to see it is fairly easy to achieve. As for heads I just looked for any interesting heads that were around the same size and started cutting them up until I had something I liked. What kind of look are you aiming for on him?

Thanks a lot!

Biohazard: I'm not completely sure - either a raging psycopath, or a more sinister "silent" killer.

Great posing and conversion!

Slaughterfiends are v. cool too!

Sinister enough?

Biohazard wrote:Sinister enough?

Hmmm... Too fantasy-like. It's really hard coming up with just the right idea, since the head can make or break this model.

I see your point. Although I always see the daemons as blurring the lines between fantasy/40k.

Looks fantastic! love the pose! i'm getting a very strong Goro vibe from him though, not that that's a bad thing by far! at least it's not the same 'ol giving the finger pose! I can't wait to see him painted up, you've got some mad skills! well done on him so far, I bet more than a few people are jealous of what you have done!

Nerdfest09

Thanks a lot - really appreciate it.

There's a definite Goro inspiration going on - also, I think multiple limps seem more demonic. I just need to make him not look like a keeper of secrets.

I've pinned the arms in place, and started to give him weapons, and I might have found the head - pics tomorrow. I could still use suggestions for the head, though.

Really like the pose for a head how about this:

I assume you have it because you've got the defiler kit!

Also can we (well me!) have a tutorial on how you paint your red?

I'm almost ready to begin sculpting the back and the joints - I'm pretty happy with it, but I still need to find out if it should have a tail or not? Opinions?

Looks really good! I like how you seem to have a scorpion theme in your army, a great idea for khorne!

No tail, he seems far meaner and has more energy without one.
