woldwrath primed.

so got all the inserts and joints covered with mak tak or tape and then color primed all the pieces and base uniformed grey.
gonna let that set and cure then I'm ready to start drybrushing the stone..which should take a few weeks LOL

epic krueger basecoating beginning

while waiting for the weather to warmup to be able to spraypaint woldwrath outside I figured I'd start basecoating Epic Krueger.I figure I'm gonna need to switch between figures to keep  fatigue at bay while tackling such a large figure.

I love this sculpt it has a ton of really fine detail ..I can see why people use a mild wash or drybrush to make the detail stand out after priming..
I found the original design sketch and its is helping I can see where I stopped with the bronze paint around the neck should continue on and where the belt buckles around the belts in the midsection..



I plan to paint the gloves and boots brown and will highlight the black cloak with green like the others cloaks Ive done for this army
I'm undecided on leggings(mostly the knees) and the shirt tunic color(mostly the arms) maybe just alighter green color or lighter brown..


edit:
got rest of basecoating done

warporn skinwalkers complete unit including Warpborn Alpha

Here we go

Woldwrath Assembly continued.

Heres where I am atm

I ended up gluing an old cd under the secret weapon blasted wetland base to give it abit of thickness and strength. Definitely feels better now.
I've pinned and glued the arms and hands together as well as the head on the body. I haven't attached the torso to the base yet. I might just wait till I've painted the body since it will be alot easier to work on the legs and feet if it isn't attached to that base yet. I'll just have to mask out the two spots where the feet will be attached so I don't paint that those parts.

I've left the logs on the sprew thing, the painting guide suggests painting them up and glueing them on last which seems like a good idea as well as 3 body cover pieces ..leaving them off will make painting the wood and vines/ropes much easier.

And here is what arms look like against it..I still have to figure out how to pin the arms to the torso. I don't like the way it connects its a 45degree flange thing that catches a lip..its weird.But there is going to be alot of weight on the connection so gotta make sure its strong.

Now I just gotta wait till sunday to get over 10 degree's and  then spray bomb all the pieces uniform grey

woldwrath assembly part 1

so looking at No Quarter Mag suggests to assemble the body and arms seperately and then paint them then glue together.
So starting with the legs I glued on the front of the feet.

Then I drilled the bottom of the torso,both legs and 3 spots on the hips.
I shaved the corners off the legs square keys so I could twist the body more vertical instead of being so hunched over.
The used some greenstuff to fill in around the inside of all 3 spots filled with crazy glue then squeezed it together.did the same for the torso as well and gonna have to let the greenstuff set and harden.

PICS!

WoldWrath begins

so all the Reaper kickstarters are starting to ship but I dont' expect mine for a month at least so what to do till then?
HOW BOUT ASSEMBLE AND PAINT WOLDWRATH? yep sounds like a plan

just a pic of the major pieces with a 40mm medium based woldwatcher in the pic for size comparisons.
Doing this fella is gonna be great practice for Cthulhu,Neythermaul and Kaladrax thats for sure.

I cleaned up all the resin  and am ready to start assembling..but I do have a question..I bought a secret weapon 120mm wetlands resin base but its really thin. How would one attach the feet to the base?? I was thinking a small thin pad of greenstuff and superglue sandwitch them together..but if theres a better way I'd love to hear it.
I figure I gotta pin justabout everything I can on this one..the no quarter amagazine has a assembly/painting guide which I'm gonna use for the assembly part for sure.

warpborn alpha highlighting done

finished up with the skin and leather and glued down the basing sand..just need to let that dry up then finish the base and then it should be ready for a glosscote.
ended up experimenting with the axe runes trying some green lining and fallout wash glow..its ok..little different on metallic but it looks like it has some depth instead of just wash over white
