thanks guys:D
Paint will have to wait because genestealers wanna eat :twisted:

Im back from the deep biovats of my biofactory and we have some more genestealers ready to eat...
all very simple convos but with bug love...

first the space marine is based on broodlord mini since it has bigger torax and bulky arms... the rambo legs had to go since they were... ugly

Genestealer Space Marine

The space wolf is more of the same but with hairy back and bigger meaner jaw and fangs... both marines are a try on dynamic movement
Genestealer Space Wolf

I like the plant, and the head of the chameleon, especailly the tongue, though don\'t care for the tail. I don\'t think they curl it unless sleeping.
The bird is good, but I think the bony structure of the wings should be more prominent - otherwise they look too incongruous.

The marine ones look good, though I don\'t know how they suggest marine versus any humanoid.

The cold one has a good head, but the body looks too fat for a genestealer to me. Might look better on all fours (all sixes?)

Tau is fantastic.
On the reptiles, I\'m not keen on the arms. My concern is that the leathery-scaly reptile skin doesn\'t cover the whole body. It makes the arms look as though they were grafted on rather than that the critter was born with them.

Wow. You are a fantastic sculptor with a great imagination, and all your amazing ideas are realised with stunning clarity. Amazing work! That tau genestealer is obscenely good!


Happy painting

i know what you mean, i think that wen i smooth and paint little scales on part of chitin arms the transition is less evident.
thanks for feedback guys.:)

WOW

Tops my pittable conversions, I have a new target person to try to match... (hehehe) OK some other Ideas...

I like the idea of some kind of Leech... Something that looks like it does not let go...

Also I noticed your total lack of not having a Greenskin... You NEED one ORC... yeah you have a grot... but a Nob Genestealer has my skin crawling...

It might also be cool to see some kind of Tusked (eliphant or Rhinoserous type)

Maybe look back at a few prehistorc Tera, they came and left? Huge Sloth, or an Ant-eater... bug eat bug... hehehe...

A Porcupine with all the quills...

A Platypus might be a fun one to make...

Have you thought of making any BioTitans?

The Worms of Dune have an intersting look...

well I think that is the last of my two cents... Toddles
