Soul grinder and harpy ( warp talons ) WIP update. I was considering painting the warp talon a traditional colour but nahh. Not for my girls

Also so far for everyone that has said something thankyou. I honestly appreciate the fact that people have gone out of their way to say something about what I'm up too.
So thanks

Excited for the Soul Grinder! Also, what's peaking out behind her?

Heh. It's an atlas Titan in the background. From titanfall. Picked up the special edition as that thing is a perfect scale as a 40k Titan. Just needs some work

Alright another actual update. Woooo may as well keep spamming these things out as I work on them. Next up is my harpy themed warp talons. I am using the same process to make their legs work (and to give them barely clad rumps ) as the noise marines. Which I'm not going to lie had me worried.
My biggest concern was that the eye would be drawn to them and you would instantly sit there pointing out how similar they are. But with the wings and the Juno pack less worried now.

My hellharpys have been blessed with flight but their curse means that they can't really set down. With lightning talons where feet should be all of them spend most of their time aloft. Perching on the curves and silken trees in slaneshe a gardens. Singing their terrible songs to lure lesser spirits or daemons of the other dark gods to them before the sweet tones of their voices turn to a reaching. With a howling bloodthirsty cry they alight and chase their victims down. Delighting in tormenting them and letting the prey feel the bliss of fear. The pounding of their heart and the surge of adrenalin before the pounce.

Holy crap, that is beautiful and scary

Gotta say Jreilley89. After I post and I see your name up there now kinda makes my day. I never even imagined i would get posts. And with over a thousand views of my little pet project I'm happy. But cheers for your ongoing support really makes me wanna do better.

So cheers to you and Anyone that posts something

Oh man, that Hellharpy is shaping up really well! Gothic and grotesque; beguiling and utterly lethal. In a word, Slanneshi to her core. Great work so far.

As always first of all I wish to thank you tinfoil. It's always great to get feedback and I appreciate it as always.
The hell harpy looks good thus far. And considering she was a prototype I might have to go ahead and get more dark eldar parts.

Today's random post is my predator tank. Normal vehicles tend to be my weakest modeling as I want things to resemble what they are supposed to be. With things like the land raider and the predator though it means it is very difficult to make them fit into the theme of my army.
So instead of a sexualized model I instead of going for it perfectly build and well-maintained look. I will be using the sound theme as the emperors children utilize sound weapons often.

In this instance I have pushed the turn it forwards and added a second venting system as well as swapped out the twin linked lascannon for sound blasters ( though they are still lascanons ).
The side sponson will be getting similar treatment and I'm going to be heading trimmed and detail.

What I have done but I do not have any photos of yet or made a little moldings from part of a Warhammer dark elf kit. It adds perfect detail. They will be in later photos.

Wow those harpys and that predator look amazing! Love the clawed feet look, very well executed!

Thanks edreynaline. This far I'm happy with how things are going. Working on the predator still and it's going well. I'm happy with the sponson and the turret but I'm sure the body needs more. My only issue so far is I'm not sure what more needs. I want to continue with my thing but with vehicles it is very difficult, I find that I cannot do what I'd like without going too far and I'm not willing to do that. Give me a monstrous creature and I will give you a piece of art. However give me a vehicle and I do struggle.

If anybody has any suggestions please fire away as I would like to listen. If I don't use them I apologize I'm after something very specific but I don't know what I'm after. An oxymoron if I've ever heard one.


The first picture is a work in progress of the rhino. The silver section is green stuff that I have used from the Coldron of blood
I am planning on adding this little symbol in various shapes all of my vehicles to personalize them.

Hey, I know sometimes its hard to keep up enthusiasm for a project, so a little support can help besides, I love seeing WIP and finished projects because it spurs me on to finish my own work.

Also, great work on that Rhino, really clean and well done conversion

I dont know did you mentioned it but where are those legs on Harpy from? I am not sure so if you could be so kind to tell me.

Hey there dubovac.

So my hell harpy and my noise marines both use dark elf legs I will make up a step by step on my next hell harpy build. That way you guys can see what I'm up to. Today I've almost finished the predator and mashed some rino stuff into life.

Woot more images.

Your daemon princess conversion and the model with the extended wings are great!!!

What an evocative army.

You don't see enough Slannesh models out there, especially one's done well. Bravo!

Thanks fireangel. Honestly I'm very happy with how they are coming along. And what's better I'm building them up pretty fast, which is odd for me as sometimes I can go for ever without progress it seems.

Next up. The three prototypes for noise marines with sonic weapons. I am going to have a couple of squads of these.
The interesting problem is because of the size of the sonic weaponry it makes the agile and sexy pose of the last ones feel off. They look like they should be lumbering slowly forward firing off an exploding cover.

So instead of modifying the legs and lower torso to give them that sleek feeling, instead I have given them gorget and normal armor in an attempt to make them feel heavier even than normal.

This special squad. Nicknamed the blast banshees is comprised entirely out of the musical meetings that made up the space Marine force. More on backgrounds to come. I am coming up with an entire story for my chapter.

Well done! I really like the "band-wagon"

So. Random post with no updates but on the other hand I am showing off a picture of my modling desk. I can tell you where any part in my kits shelfs are. But I model in a messy spot. It's my style.

"As messy as there mind, is the room of a genius."

Nice looking stuff.

For a filthy heretic…

<runs away before the chaplain sees him>

...Or before the Dark Mechanicum kidnaps you for there "innovations"

hey there world. So, another update, though this time sadly I realized that I didnt do any wip pictures. So sorry, my bad ><
But in other news I have finished my helldrake. Its large, powerful looking and at the same time still has the feeling im after.

Ill post far more about it later, just gonna spam pictures and for now ive decided that my emperors children are a recent chapter that ended up on a planet, turning it into a bastion world against encroaching chaos hordes. A planet of almost amazonian nature with lots of women on it. The sublte corutopn started and then doom... But again, more on all that later when ive more time.

Neat concept, but I'd lose the human head entirely. Would help it fit the 'beautiful but horrific' theme of Slaanesh much better.

The other option would be to not use the dragon head, and have her be some sort of mega-harpy. But the mix of both heads is a little odd. But frankly that’s OK in a chaos army, particularly slannesh.

Crazy but I like it.

Now this... definitly is the most scary looking 40k army I have seen in ages! And also the most uniq and special one. And my favorite model has to be the KoS, that thing was amazing in all ways. Well done

Deffinetly good thoughts. She is all done now. But I'm deffinetly thinking of making a wing of helldrakes. One definitely with the dragon's head I think that idea is fantastic and as long as I can keep the theme looking roughly the same and it totally unique for each model I agree.
One of the key things I'm trying to achieve is my own independent look. I know many people go for a scary and sexy look but I'm trying to get more of the humanoid figures in there. The reason for this is honestly it tends to be harder due to the scale and my modeling skills.

Thank you very much. I am trying to make something unique and definitely with my own feeling and flavor. I appreciate all feedback and keep an eye out. I have also it's of other projects on the go was well I am currently working on a custom-built my little pony seemed Reaver Titan for a friend. At the same time I also have some bad moods but I'm currently building in the background

Distract your opponents with boobies, an age old strat

Random late stuff. Nothing to magical ( and still need more parts before an awsome leg conversion tutorial which is TOTALY coming up I swear). So just a rino. Basic and simple with no real awaome was aside from my little symbol thingy in the side paneling.
They are gonna be on all my vehicals so woot

Ps. Yes cleavage works as a distraction against guard eldar and possibly tau. Orks sadly just don't get it. Space marines are neutered I'm sure and nids..... Just no. Bio slime and tentacles everywhere.

Liking the conversions, where the parts you used for the dreadnought and demon from?

Hi there Jehan, thanks for the comment. The dreadnought has parts in it from "hasslefree miniatures " http://www.hfminis.co.uk
an English company that do some nice parts that were perfect for me. Though I do have some "dark ages " minis on order for the awosme plan I have for my warp smith.
As for the demon Its a tyrigon thingy [ not sure, big nid ]
green stuff and A Mc Farlens " red riding hood "
Mash together, throw in some dread knight parts and done
