side project miniature No2

 And so it begins anew, here's the legs modified for the new stance and a back section to build up from.
 Head and arm attached with the beginings of the front torso.
 Sorry camera went missing for a while but this is how it stands on the base. Again the chain sword is homemade and was an attempt to replicate the original. The front torso and power cables built up and his lower leg armour shaping up. The cybernetic arm isn't quite right but hopefully some added gubbins will help the look.
 Buzz saw on the back of his uagmetic hand for supprising his enemys in close combat, there's a bar to make it look like it exstends when in use.


 The original arm did not have any shoulder guard so ive taken some artistic licence and added some with a skull.

 Here he is next the the original RT era marine and again i,ve failed to get that lean into his upper torso which is annoying as hell but the larger parts from the newer miniatures dont lend them selves to it well. It is dooable but the legs at the start were wrong so next attempt i'll consentrate a lot more on getting the stance correct before cannonballing onwards with the rest of the build.
C and C welcome as always.

    I like him. yes, teh lean isn't there, but otherwise it is a bloody good effort and a sweet homage to the original.

  2. Where am i! lost in the Fens Sir :0 PST is what came up on the blogger dash but it didn't work and i had to manually post it. Still some bits on this one that i'm not quite happy with but the large amout of green stuff work on his upper torso seems to have worked out well. Next one has much less green stuff.
