In an effort to put off starting to study for a french debate, i started fiddling with the BFSP pony and this happened:
Still very much a WIP bull centaur, but i wanted to know what ideas you guys had to improve it. It would be really helpful.
Cheers guys
Looking cool!
The head looks a bit stretched... maybe try to round it up a bit.
Nice work, I'd recomend puting the head a bit higher but thats very nice greenstuffing
Nice! I think the head is a bit big though, he looks kind of like a green martian out of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Which doesn't have to be a bad thing really. Beard and barding look excellent.
Cheers guys, i no the head looks a bit elongated, but i needed it to be flat for his Bighat. It'll all be sorted when the dreadlocks are are added round back and sides. Anyway, here's a little update, the arms are only blue tacked in place (well, yellow GS actually). Hows the progress looking?
KoA and Kera, the hat is a part of a biro, cut up.
more of an update:
Looks really cool, the head fist much better now too. He's a tad too small for a bull centaur IMHO, maybe he's part of the way through transforming
Cheers Grongi, almost missed that. Had a hack at one of them, but i figure i'll just use GS as its the easier alternative. More progress, painting soon to follow
Firstly, details of the Bighat
and here he is balancing precariously on the base:
pinned in place now (and looking less like he's wearing platform shoes. Had another bash at carving out cloven hooves, what do you think, do they still need GS work?
Oh, and i'll ask this here as i'm sure i'll get a more educated response than from vanilla forums, do you think he needs a backbanner...my opinion has gone either way throughout the project, and if so, one or two?
Help me CDO posters, your my only hope
I think it looks excellent. I feel rreally bad for finding one personal fault though, which is perhaps to lengthen the body a little to make it not look so small. the cut would be able to be hidden easily with greenstuff scalemail. Inventive idea for the hat, it looks much better with the greenstuff arrows. The rest of the conversion looks brilliant and the hooves came out just fine. perfect even. No greenstuffing them necessary, IMO.
Final update on the centaur, a really enjoyable paint TBH. What do you guys think?
Cheers
Very good BC there, hope mine ends up as good as that
but maybe a few more things of hair at the back, as that'd make him look awesomer. That is a great model
Wow, nicely painted. A size comparison shot would rock! Well done, man!
cheers guys, if anybody has any spare/unwanted ponies, and want them to go to a good home then fone the RSPCA. If you want them to have their head cut off and mutated, then i'd gladly take them off your hands.
Ok, as requested by Xander, here's a size comparison:
As a bonus, i got round to the arabification of my BT crew
and knocked this up whilst p*ss*d up after a pub run. Its a shaman if i ever want to run the hobgobbos on their own using the OG list.
and look whats finally getting painted (if you can see it of course)
Thats all folks
Awesome bull centaur, he's worked nicely. Lovely idea with the blunderbuss, I recognise the crewman, what did you use for the gun?
The death rocket was made from, guess what, a part of a pen, with yet another part of the pen added at the back. Speaking of which, here's the guy himself (base needs more work)
now that is what I call a bazooka
it makes the dwarf look puny
that has to be a death rocket or something.....
Got round to knocking up a rocket for the loader (done ages ago). Made sure that it actually fits inside the barrel for added realism (and geekiness). Would have been great to make it spring loaded
Looks good. the contrast of the white to the gold arrows works incredibly well. the bull centaur looks good, especially in comparison size. However, I'm still of the opinion that the pony/bull body needs to be slightly longer.
Hmm, lemme get back to you on that one. I think I might have four or so from the plastic Miners...
