Happy New Year!
I hope you had a great time with family and friends and a time well spent away from work, school and all those other routine chores.
My wife and I were in Belgium for a view days and celebrated New Years in Brussels (guarded by soldiers). We visited Bruges, Ghent and Brussels - wonderful cities :)
Well, before we left for Belgium I worked on the diorama and planned to complete it.
The first to finish were these two. As you can see the Ork received a knucklebuster and I sculpted the Marines hand.
Then I posed these two together.
With the Ork's axe hitting the sword.
The Marine with the hammer also met his opponent.
And I worked on the slayer.
With the opponents in position it looked like this.
Then I added some debris and the individuals received details (like purity seals, pouches etc.)
Then I sculpted some muzzle flashes using ProCreate.
With the remaining PC I sculpted some ripped and torn tapestry.
At this point I was pleased and considered the diorama built phase completed.
Hmm, maybe some spider webs?
So I created some tiny plastic strands using a candle.
Looks good enough
And then I glued some in position to simulated spider webs....
Not so sure if it really works.
But at this state I left for Belgium.
Coming back, I decided I need some more Orks at the lower end - to show the brunt of the attack just arriving.
And I decided that I want a counter figure to the central Terminator.
How about an Ork Banner Bearer?
This could be fun!
So I sculpted a flag from ProCreate.
And this is how it all looks now.
I think this will work.
What do you think?
I look forward to your comments and suggestions!
Cheers
Klaus
