Just added another commission miniature to the Under The Couch gallery.

This guy is a Catachan officer, based loosely on the character of Nick Fury from the Marvel Ultimates universe, with a bit of a 40K bionicised twist.



For anyone interested, you can find the WIP Blog showing how he was put together over on the UTC forums.

The stogie looks a little large, but it may just be the picture. Very nice pose, and I love the base!

wow, even without green stuff your miniatures are great.

so...ultimate nick fury you say. so he will get painted black I presume

Bad-a$$ with a shotgun, I dig it. Nice base, and what's his head from? Quite gnarled ...

Great work Insaniak, you the demonic kitty.

Actually, there's a bit of green stuff in there... except that it's grey instead of green.

I've been experimenting with Pro-create, which is similar to green stuff, in that it's a two part epoxy putty, but is a little different to work with. So far, it's been working out well...

On this guy, there's a bit of gap filling here and there (most notably where the left leg is joined on at the hip), a little resculpted detail on the backpack, and the face is entirely resculpted from the eyebrows down. It's just not as obvious as with green stuff, as the pro-create is grey and blends into the plastic.


The head is from the Empire Flagellant set:

Quote nice but not really 'Nick Furyesque' Without the title I'd have never thought of Nick, he's more about the skin tight leather with 100 straps and buckles.

But that said and amazing peice.

Ultimate Nick Fury is the baldy with the patch, but I recall seeing him more in
suits.

that is a fantastic model.

Nice model, dont know ultimate nick fury just know the guy in black leather with hair. Nice mini still

Think Samuel Jackson.

Don't forget the L mutha*fudge*a

Great conversion, as usual, insaniak.

 

Now if you could do a conversion using an ogre or ogryn and a Space Marine of some sort and create the diaroma of Ultimate Hulk trying to eat Ultimate Iron Mans head that would just be swell.

Ultimate Hulk gets very hungry.

Nic Fury strikes me as more Cadian than Catachan.  Actually, now that I think about it, the Van Saar from Necromunda would be a great place to start a Nic Fury model.

well, there's talk of a nick fury cameo in the new Iron Man movie...


...a cameo performed by Samuel L Jackson

Well, I gott say... I love the mini. That I'm a fan is no secret.

I like your take on Nick.

That being said, look at the top right inage in the picture below.

Looks like a really RIPPED Voldemort!

 

I wanna see someone convert an IG Harry Potter army!!!!!
