<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Bloodthirster conversion WIP"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Bloodthirster conversion WIP
Finecast bloodthirster - too small and but-ugly (and not in a good deamon-y way)
Forgeworld bloodthirster - awesome model, but entirely too big to be practical
Balrog conversion - seems to be the most commonly done, which is why I wanted to avoid it


So I decided to make my own... which I might be starting to regret at this point lol. But here's what I have so far. I still need to do up a left arm, add some wings, and then general tidying up of my atrocious greenstuff work (to hopefully at least bring it up to the level of horrible)

My only issue with it is the gigantic head combined with the otherwise thin limbs. If you bulked up the legs, and maybe the chest, I think it could look better. But I digress, I really like the conversion, the head is ideal for a khornate daemon.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3874052.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3874052.page GMT Bloodthirster conversion WIP
Is there a way you bulk him up a bit?

Reminds me a bit of this guy!

Looks good, the only thing I find odd is the skinny legs, but I think it is the larger head which is weird.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3879991.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3879991.page GMT Bloodthirster conversion WIP btw.. and this deamon is amazing ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3880023.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3880023.page GMT Bloodthirster conversion WIP http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3881139.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3881139.page GMT Bloodthirster conversion WIP http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3881156.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3881156.page GMT Bloodthirster conversion WIP

With respect. Quoting the whole showcase is not the best idea. I hope I'm not sounding annoying and officious but I thought I'd just note.

OP: I love the extremity of the kit. Personally I don't think it needs bulking up at all but a few armour plates might look pretty cool.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3881274.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3881274.page GMT Bloodthirster conversion WIP http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3881285.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3881285.page GMT Re:Bloodthirster conversion WIP http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3882313.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/427708/3882313.page GMT Bloodthirster conversion WIP
Got the left arm done (which was amazingly painful but turned out better than I expected considering how bad I am at sculpting). It's about the size I wanted which makes the right arm look even shorter so I think I'm going to have to do some more cutting and puttying to match them up. I also broke the axe a bit when when working on the left arm. Since I need to do the right arm again anyway I might try and see if I can put a larger haft on the axe, it just seems a little stubby to me.

I put it beside my Daemon Prince for scale purposes
