Mister Monkey Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 As much as feathers would be more traditional, I think bat wings would look sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Ooh, or possibly something like this (googling for bat and feather combined wings produced just what I was looking for!) [ATTACH=CONFIG]10651[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 That might work out well. The standard attached refrain- you're nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Yup, totally bananas. I don't even argue with that any more! But the combo is something I've always pondered, and this is the first time I've seen a sketch that made it work. I tried to put feathers at the bottom of a bat wing once, it didn't work. This way looks much cooler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Yeah, it does definitely make a lot of sense to do it like that versus on the bottom of the wing. I think it'll look great when it's done, just don't go too crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 There's a too crazy? :Stuck_Puppet: I'm going to do the first wing section and see how it goes, get the balance in. Got to go from the arm skin to small feathers, to larger feathers, then to leather. Should be fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoeRender Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Is there too crazy ? ummmmm it depends . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Well, here's the progress. Not going to make the deadline of having her painted by sunday, though I may still have her cast by then. Not much more to do, some tweaking and final bits on the wings (broke one of the tips off photoing her!) and the talons need sorting, then its all done. Not too slow really, eight days from not even having a concept to this point, and there was drinking, casting sessions for a play, and work in that time!

edonil Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Very nice! The hair turned out great, and so did the rest. Not in love with the wings, but that's just me. Overall, though, looks awesome, looking forward to your paint scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 The wings look better in reality, but then they're a fairly quirky thing that I like but I figured some others wouldn't. They're fairly unusual, which I think makes me like then even more lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoeRender Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Looks great , the wings will fall in there own when they are painted . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anger Worm Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 This is the best blog on here. I can't check it too frequently lest I become totally demoralized with my baby-skills.

Mako Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Alright, I was going to focus on justice's crew now, but a slight change of plan. It looks like I may be going to GenCon, so in the spirit of stupidity a few of the OTT lot have decided to see if we can find space to play a brawl. The crew I'm thinking of taking is: Colette, 1 mechanical dove Hoffman, mobile toolkit Kaeris, essence of power 2 metal gamin 2 fire gamin 2 coryphee With the basic plan being to turn everything into mannequins, then overheat it using Kaeris, and have Hoff detonate scrap on it. The metal gamin should help keep some of the important bits alive, and the other constructs might help ward off trouble and help get objectives. It's not a particularly serious crew, since it's designed entirely round the mannequin-overheat-detonate trick and I haven't got a clue how to use any of the models. So far, assuming i take 4 mannequin models, my little status chart looks like this: Which is not very impressive. I have a long way to go to have them ready for GenCon...

FoeRender Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Crazy Idea there Mako and it probably will do poorly in practice but .... I LIKE IT ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Victoria, I shouldn't be too hard to find, I'll be the one in a three way brawl with gimmick lists and a lot of stupidity. Oh wait, that might not stand out too much... If you find me, feel free to demand a look in my case! As long as the worst doesn't happen to my bank account I'll be there. Aye Foe, it's a bit of a mad game really. There's three of us in it and aside from my mannequin's ball list, there's currently an 11 wicked doll list too, and the ten thunders in some form. I think misaki and yan lo for ultimate coolness. No one's out to stomp the others, we're just looking for a hilarious and huge game. 50ss 3 way brawl, 150 stones of stuff going all over the place. How I play every game really! Hmmm, I might need more than 4 mannequins... ---------- Post added at 02:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 AM ---------- Oh, and I'll put a picture up soon of the crew as it currently stands.

Mister Shine Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 I havent decided on which list I want to use. 11 wicked dolls or ALL THE BIG THINGS list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Fip a card on the day lol. So far it's just some rimed and some unprimed models, but I'll be doing it as a project so will keep updating wi grips shots every so often as well as closer pictures. Tonight I'm messing with night terrors, so they're painted for Saturday lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Shine Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Ill probably go the big things list as It means 10 less things to paint, lol ---------- Post added at 09:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ---------- but the lil teddies deserve to be painted..... hmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moody628 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Ok, a bit of an update on lots of stuff. While I have downtime I've been messing about with some digital sculpting. It's been a lot of fun, and having an undo key is brilliant. But it's just as hard as putty work, and in some ways it's even harder. Here's my messing about over three sessions: Just wondering what 3D software you're trying out... Blender? Or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
