My First Conversion/Repose-thing

[RoadWarrior]

A big thanks to Mordjinn for his thread and the inspiration to do this (Link:http://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?41018-Centurion-concept-art-repose :)

I'm posting this at 1:58AM so I'll keep it quick.

Took me 3 days to finish, the Model took 2 and the base 1. I used MilliPut Supper Fine.

I'm very pleased with how it turned out, we'll see if I feel the same tomorrow.

great job. looks like art, but if this jack will take stand like this, even windblow can put him down =)

Thank Morrow for lead weights.

Awesome repose so far. I know that if I get a centurion, I'll probably most definitely be doing the same thing. I only wish you could have bent the spear arm a tad bit to the inside to look a little more relaxed.

Thanks for the comments :) , Yep, his arm is sticking out a bit to much I'll see what I can do.

I've done my pose quite similar.
But, I would suggest making the spear out of brass rod covered with putty. It's much more durable.
I cut the spear at each side of the hand, and drilled right through.
I then inserted a .80mm brass rod through the fist, and covered it with putty, and added texture.
I replaced both arm pistons with brass rods as well, again for durability.
I didn't have to resculpt the gut pistons though, as I didn't turn the body as extremely as yours. I just opened the hole in the main body a bit more, and leaned the torso back so it looks less hunched.

In all, I like your pose, but like others have said; it looks pretty fragile.

Thanks for the info Ghool I appreciate it.

He has his Spear arm finished and some base-coat on his torso but I don't want to post the WIP shots at the moment.

Great work mate! I've been busy with building buildings for our gaming board, but I'll continue with my Centurion as soon as possible. Awesome base you have there, any tips on creating that?

[nIKon]

I can see it now, a rising tide of base escalation in our group culminating with character jacks poised atop 3 feet high bases/altars. Are you going with the same paint scheme as your mercs or traditional Cygnar?

HJ's Beast09 has base envy...

[WintersChill]

This is awesome! After you paint it, it will be awesome-r! :D

[RoadWarrior]

I finished it last night, but I had to wait for the sun to take pictures. For the paint, I went with the pattern of the book but used my own colors to fit my Army.

His Left knee, foot and one of the stacks need to be touched up :|

I used a Cork candle lid and drew the shape I wanted on to it then, I cut away with an x-acto knife.
