Hey guys, looks like those brushes are indeed keeping moist! i'm so chuffed with the entrants, everyone has really put in a massive effort and I'm leaning towards extra prizes next year to really amp it up! but thank you all so far for your time and passion you have put in these mini's, I can tell that everyone has just squeezed that little bit extra from themselves as it's for this comp and you should be absolutely proud of all of these little works of art!

only a couple days left! so finish off and PM me as soon as you're done! i'm excited to see them all and judge a worthy winner with my other Xfactor judges :-)

@azuredeath: can't see your pic dude? :-( if it's anything like your avatar.... niiiiiice!

@GiraffeX: so nice to see a sister! and i love the roses on the chainsword! that is just such a great touch and brings the model out as something truly cool!

Nice work Ramos. Really nice movement in that mini. I always like seeing dynamic terminators Just because you're wearing a few tons of armour doesn't mean you can't dance! thats what the power servos are for, after all.


the suits were built for dealing with reactors and the radiation that went with it... being nimble wasn't needed... just being impervious to radiation at high rads.

its an interesting position, and nice dynamics, but having moved in a suit of armour, its hard to see someone able to quite move like that in something as bulky as tactical dreadnought armour (terminator armour for you newbies )

sorry lols...


I've moved in armour as well, and if you don't have some agility then you're dead. Unpowered armour that thick would cause you problems, but not only does terminator armour have the normal PA servo bundles it has a powered exoskeleton as well. And while the suits were originally designed fro reactor work, they were still modified for combat in an unspecified way, so I like to believe that means higher rated servos and better agility for combat

I'll shut up now and continue my crusade against undynamic terminators elsewhere

Imgur, my stuff kept vanishing from photobucket so I got tired of it.

I can choose a smaller version of it there, but then you can't see all that much. :/
So here's the smaller version I've made into a link of the full version of that scaled down one

I really like the rusted metal look there. Powders, or just layers of drybrushing?

The back of that ork head on the banner needs something, though, surely I wouldn't have noticed, but you left just too much of it on the last pic

hate to say, but I won't be able to finish this one, just got in another load of commissions, and seeing as they are my only source of income, they come first.

Good luck to all and I'm enjoying seeing what you guys can do!
