Moddler

6:22 PM

I just noticed that John over at Moddler is using the Dictator model I made for Khurasan on his splash page.
I let myself get a little tickled over this because John has some real talent from other artist, ala-Zbrush, in his portfolio pictures and I'm pleased I made the cut. Jon over at Khurasan should have this monster available soon, so keep your eyes on his web page.

Just a bit about, the man who makes my 3D models into real world objects:

John Vegher does all my 3D prints, he offers great service at a great price.... I know because I have shopped around. In John's last career, he ran a Emmy winning visual effects house and was a founding member of Giant Killer Robots and Pixel Liberation Front.

If you ever need a 3d model made into a real world object, I recommend you put Moddler on your short list of service providers.

Leviathan Crusader Head

1:23 PM

I never got a chance to post pics of the Crusader head, so here you go...

Here are a couple of shots of the Vulkan Cannon with ammo belt and accessories.

And here is a shot of the torso. The hydraulics are not in place but it should give a good feel of scale.

Here is a shot of the arm components. Note the key design so you can remove the arms and change out the weapons.

Leviathan WIP

3:17 PM

I just had to send out a little tease....

Here are some rather blurry shots of the model. I really need to get a new camera. I have taken better pictures with a phone :)

These shots have the Reaper head in the chassis. everything is just dry fit so please excuse the gaps between components but you can get an idea of the scale of the torso compared to the wonderfully sculpted but poorly shot MERCS mini.

When I get a chance and a better camera, I'll throw up more pics.

MERCS minis

10:36 AM

The gents over at MERCS were kind enough to comp me a set of figures. I did the cad work on the weapons for these bad boys.

All I have to say is AMAZING! the pictures just don't give them the props they deserve. The dynamic poses, the level of detail are just mind blowing. I have seen ForgeWorld minis up close and they are quite nice, but they are also resin, and resin is more capable of capturing the fine details. These minis are all metal and so detailed that I doubt my painting skills are up to the task.

Hats off to all the boys at MERCS for some incredible minis!

I must thank JBR for having the opportunity to work with this client... I know it must have pained him to pass on the job.
