The initial bits assembled tho the arm carrying the banner got tossed as it over shadowed everything else on the model so i'll use that for another acolyte convertion.
Looked a bit ropey at this point did a lot of adjusting to the head to get it sitting right. The body was an old guard conversion i never completed and the trench coat i'd done already saved me lots of work and was perfect for this model.
Most of the main sculpting work done just the details to add. See last post for more pics of this stage plus the art i based it off.
360 pics of him all finished up and details added. click pics to embiggen.
The overboot gaters are one of the things i liked about the art work, simple to do but changes the look of the feet totally.
Extra long chain sword, used an empire sword handle to make it look more bespoke as befits an interrogator
i'm going to have a crack at another chain sword soon just need to work out better method of doing the teeth.
The art suggests a micro bead in is ear so improvised one as i did his dust goggles. Worked quite well but not something i'd do too often.
I added the purity seals there not in the art work but needed them to finish him off i think.
I wasn't happy with the dust goggles when i did them but they look ok in these pics so will have to do some more on other conversions as they do look cool lol.
That plasma gun may be the only thing letting him down. I did consider a plasma pistol but the art suggest a custom plasm gun that's longer than a pistol but this is too heavy i think. I may have a go at scratching up a custom job for him as long as the coils look right. Maybe forming wire over a plastic block could work and slimming down the body and larger fuel cells could give it the bespoke look i'm after.
I'd Love to hear what you think of him, really love to hear some feed back on my green stuff-ing technique and have i captured the spirit of the artwork if not a carbon copy (never my intention btw) just inspiration as my last attempt at an interrogator was pants big time. Maybe trying to do 2 conversions at the same time ment one was good (Templer Psykologis) and the other was terrible.
C and C welcome

That is fantastic! I especially like how the chainsword turned out. Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteThanks the chain sword was a spur of the moment thing i looked at what i had in stock and nothing seemed to work so toshed that together. For a first go it looks ok but next one will be better :)
