Title: Chaos Marines... Dire Wolves.
Post by: Inso on September 29, 2013, 05:08:14 PM

I've re-invigorated an old project and have finally finished the first of the Terminators... a Chaos Warsmith:

There will obviously be much more to come but I have to get on with things first :).

There is something very comic book about that guy, largely to do with the restricted palette.

He looks cool and an army of them is going to look even better :)

It's an excellent sculpt from a professional standpoint, but the Chaos "design motif" always makes me chuckle.  It's just so absurdly "designed by a 7 year old".  Spiky bits and comical amounts of skulls etc.  I have a hard time finding any aesthetic value in them.  To be fair I guess they're better than Jem and her noise marines from earlier editions!  lol

Guys who game in "true scale" --- do you guys use the various consumer based modifications to portray Marines properly?  I know they used to have rules for playing Space Marines as they appear in the fluff (ie. 5 marines against 100 orks etc.).  Or is it solely for modeling amusement?

I really like what you have done here so far, there is a great vibe of "walking tank" from that model which is quite apt and I quite appreciate the understated chaotics.    Now to have a trawl through the rest of you stuff....
