I'm not entirely sure, but it looks like it's sitting a little high on the legs to me (I'd expect it to look a little more squat). However, you can nevertheless colour me impressed.

It looks great, I think that the legs might look a bit too tall but there are still the armour plates that will cover the lower part of them and it stands straith, which is unlike the leg position of the 40k dreadnought.

...sorry, couldn't resist

Bloody Amazing. Can't put my finger on what it is about the legs, maybe when the shin armour is on it will look right.

Hi all

another update for everyone. Think I managed to get the leg sorted now. With the addition of the armour plates it seems to put everything into proportion. Next job on my list is cabling/piping and to finish the head which I'm starting to bulk up and add detail.





C&C always welcome.

That... is... beautiful  :-*

And a Heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.

Very impressive indeed.

This has really been a labour of love. The level of detail is excellent, and the craftsmanship is second to none.
You have a lot of be proud about here.

Although, the real test of skill is going to be the paintjob. Although paint is the most superficial part of any model, it is also something that can really liven up a detailed model such as this. On the other hand, a poor paintjob can do the exact opposite.

In short, the work so far is amazing. Keep it up. :P

It looks marvellous. All the detail is lovely and I can;t wait to see more.

Thanks for all the encouragement so far. As to painting, I'm a little out of practice so you might have to wait a while. Thought I'd post the most recent work I've made to the head, which I'm pretty happy with so far.





Plus as a bonus I've added some runes to the Sarcophagus armour.

It all looks very good, the runes really add to the body. The head looks very fitting for the dread, and a bit scary as well.

Holy cow.
Progress report?

As requested by TheNephew - Slowly painting away - Enjoy.

It is magnificent and menacing. A beautiful model.

*insane gibbering*

I like the colour scheme you've chosen. The edges seem quite dark, and this is good. I've seen many a black legion arm with bright edging, and it doesn't look right. This looks nice and gritty. And it blew my mind.

*more insane gibbering*
Be polite. Be efficient. Have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
