Its simple, we kill the batman! No I recommend you have your model completely built by the 20th to paint it. If it is built, have it base coated by then.

He will look fabulous, but he would look so good in purple . I love garibaldi almost as much as londo.

lol not babylon 5 garibaldi, my name is gary and when i was a kid i shaved all my hair off, so its just one of many nick names i had as a kid, others will surface throughout my guard.
on that tyranid piece depends on who the badass is supposed to be, the guy facing that thing down or the thing itself

I think if the scything talons were a second pair of legs this would be much better, right now I can't see how it could walk. But the greenstuff is amazing.

I just noticed muffins in the background, now I am hungry..

I didn't notice that either.

OK so the muffins are fine....and how does this grab you........

Hmm it looks better with the second set of legs, Much better, but the second set of legs don't look like they hold weight (being to pointy)

I am not sure what to do.

i think if you could put another little mouth on the end of the tongue then that might be fun, mouthinamouthinamouth type thing

as promised a bit of paint on Garibaldi (or Gary Baldy )

hopefully i can get him finished next time, whenever that will be................

Looks a little like Bruce Willis mixed witha terminator.

maybe a little bit more beefy around the mid leg joints to give the impression of it having the capacity to take its weight...or have the points of the legs dug slightly into the stone... but i gotta say... that model sure does look mighty menacing.... id be bricking it if i got that close.


as far as my entry... well im happy to say that its all sculpted and ready to undercoat... bad news is that im in germany for a week tommorrow night so im only gonna have 2 weeks to get the paint on... shouldnt be a problem....
ive made the main darksiders command section of the EDF, human commander, asari sniper, lizard flamethrower, ork heavy bolter with a beastman loader and the EDF's jugganaught .... my nork deddog stand in.... wip pics when i get back.

Amazing updates and a completed entry. Looking good people, looking good

Oh and one last thing. Can you please fuse the top of the carapace on the head to the head better? That gap is bothering me... just add more to the fore head area, and smooth it out you be fine and it would look great. It is an epic beast you have there.

I'm afraid I must resign from the competition. I recently damaged my wrist and hand and so currently I can do little with it in a sling, even small tasks are difficult to do and I wont be able to finish my entry on time. Good luck to all of you still in it and I look forward to seeing just how badass you can be.

^Rubbish. Hope you mend soon.
Great work folk, really going to be tight this one!

Here's a wip of my bad girls:

edited for wrong link!

lol that was confusing, i thought maybe you had scrapped the robo girls and decided to order the other stuff

His model was so badass it broke his hand and wrist when he said he was going to paint it.

Hope everything is okay man, heal quick, comrade will probably start two more competitions before this one ends

@Ruglud - I'll be back for the next round, depending on what Panda and you have in mind of course
Also my job is one of heavy lifting and shifting of objects and puts constant strain on my arms and shoulders. Awkward positioning of boxes and such as I am holding them to open put a bit too much strain on the muscles in my wrist and forearm... That and also slicing the meat of your palm is a brilliant way to injure ones self. The Doctor and work recommended avoiding doing anything with my arm for a few weeks just to be safe.

@Theophony - The badass model challenged me to an arm wrestle and twisted my arm into submission before tearing it clean off and reapplying it with super glue. Suffice to say I am too afraid to go near him until the competition has ended. All hail our little grey overlords!

That's what happens when you try and make a 28mm chuck Norris. Chuck doesn't break your arm, he just leaves the rest of your body unscathed.
