hey friends
so i was given a commission, he wanted me to make a scenic base and paint a heirophant bio titan.... easy enough... he said he wanted it in 3 days... challenge accepted !
Day 1 Friday night, assembly! after work and a work out , i jumped onto my task at hand


after getting it completely built day 2 Saturday, i decided to tackle the painting of the creature, starting around noon
I came with the finished product by around midnight, only stopping for lunch and dinner and the drive back home from my local gaming store where i started
big boy

RARRRRRRR!!!!!

DIS MY GOOD SIDE!


Sunday DAY 3 i headed back to my local gaming store to show him the painted model and start on the basing. For the larger scenic base , not the CD already show in the last base. he had a kight titan he wanted ripped in half ( it was actually my idea but okay ) started out like this
some green stuff to show the living ammunition that helped bring down this titan and a lot of damage ...

the second half to the titans body, the heirophat does not know how to play nice

overall view of the whole picture were going to see before the finished product


lastly, late Sunday night i had to finish with the basing and painting of the scenic base . around 2 in the morning it looked like this









That is all the pictures i have for now, next weekend , ill have pictures of it complete and together in the showcase section, total of 3 days for this project, i had lots of fun and thoroughly enjoyed every step! thanks for checking this out and if your in the NOVA area this model will be used at the GW in tower center "Murder " game coming up in February i believe, so a heads up to you 30k space marine players attending that!
criticisms and critiques are much welcome
thanks again !

That is awesome, thank you very much for sharing.

Wow. That's slot of money for a base too.

Three days? Talk about modelling ability goals...

That said I hope he's paying you very well. That sort of turn around for that sort of work is.. Insane.

thanks for the compliments, and i was paid well. i got like 30 bezerkers and 30-40 chaos space marines! haha

That base is absolutely terrific. LOVE it.
But oh my what use of a 100 quid knight kit

This is fantastic - well done!
I like the rippers and spore mines hanging out as well.

i feel it was well worth the money!, my friend loves it.
thank you for the comments. and im glad someone noticed the little guys hanging around! I didnt want to go over board and add to much so i felt the spore mine and rippers would be a good small touch !!!

thats really good, great base, if there is one thing i can say is when using long grasses on base always put in threes or fives looks more natural than single pieces

Dude, freakin awesome. Love it. Can't wait to see it based up with the knight
