Tellos Soul Drinker Space Marine

Science Fiction

28mm

From the Black Library series "Soul Drinker", here is Tellos. He is an assault marine sergeant who lost both his hands and was unable to receive bionics. He went a little nutty and eventually got chainblades grafted onto his wrists. He mutated a bit to become stronger and his flesh healed super fast (think wolverine of Xmen ;) ) . Eventually he turned to khorne and went even more berzerk spilling blood for the blood god. Two points - I know his flesh was described as light grey in the books, but i painted it a darker to try and create a darker atmosphere to the model by using a dark pallet (...tried ;) ) . I am currently sculpting some sockets where his armour would have interfaces onto him, which i forgot. Comments and crit welcomed :D

Lovely model but you should put a spoiler warning in your post I'm reading soul drinkers omnibus at the minute and you've given away some of the plot :(

That one`s really great and I think you got the dark atmosphere even if the skin is to dark I love tellos and i think it would be cool if you would work on more soul drinkers ;D

Yea, it was chainblades towards the end of the series cassar ;) But you are right that at first he did just have regular blades. Not planning any other soul drinkers yet, but who knows - perhaps if im motivated by another ace book, Ben Counter, please sir? :P Cheers for the comments guys :D Advice on how to improve would be great too - all my minis currently cant get past 6.8-7.0 in score at moment :(
