Hi. That's my first post here, but not my first model

This is some fantastic work, I keep looking over it and finding more and more things I like about it.

I'm not a fan of the GW kit, but this one looks a bit better. Not any cheaper though unless you had a Lee laying around!

Really cool model! Nice use of plasticard and bits and great photography as well!

That's amazing!

One of the best scratchbuilds I've seen, it manages to look better that the official ki! Keep up the good work!

Very cool stuff. Definitely a bit more 'believable' (for me), than the GW one.

Just looked again, at the pics, mind sharing how you did the texturing?

There are many different techniques used. Main was sculpting (green stuff and milliput). Holes in flat plastic surfaces was drilled or maked with a hot pin (then sharp edges are formed). Big, dirty amd heavy rusted surfaces i've make applying on plastic thin layer of plastic glue, mixed with epoxy putty, and punching it with needle.

Exalted! This thread is superb!

Life is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless and perfunctory gift nobody ever asked for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down because there's nothing left to drink. Sure once in a while there's a peanut butter cup or a English toffee, but they're gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits of hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. If you're desperate enough to eat those all you've got left is a. An empty box, filled with useless brown paper wrappers.

Greetings myszopek, Your Plagueburst Crawler looks really great! I had to do a double take when said that it was scratch build because it is professional quality.

The paint work is really nice! I would have painted it white to match My Death Guard Force but it looks great in the colors that You have used.

Thank You for sharing Your Great Creation!

Well done on those models. I especially like the Plagueburst Crawler. It's instantly identifiable for what it is, without strictly adhering to the original models details.
