More Defiling and ... Helbruting?

A small update on the Defiler and the Helbrute:

I've begun bulking up the defiler - and please note that not all of the parts are final (especially
the engines), so it's more like a sketch than anything - but I could use some feedback, since I'm a bit knee deep into doing it, and sometimes I lose my focus when I get there - is it working, or should I go in a completely different direction?



Also some more details on the Helbrute - I gave him some extra exhausts (once again, those Fiend stacks sure come in handy), and I've given him a chainmail loincloth, which help the wide stance a bit. I've also glued on the insect legs on the sarcophagus, and a large spike on his left shoulder:

  1. I really like where the defiler is going, but perhaps it needs to be longer? The side profile is a little too compact for how big it is, but the other angles look good!

    1. Thanks - I agree it looks a bit stumpy right now, but if I make it any larger, it'll have a much too large footprint. I'll have to think, but thanks for the suggestion. :)

  2. I like it. Works very well. Don't think you need to make any changes.

    As for the helbrute, it looks great! My only criticism would be that there is still quite a few mould lines left on him, especially on the exhausts

    1. Thanks! Reg. mould lines, don't you worry - they ALWAYS get removed. It's a pet peeve of mine. ;)

  3. Very nice work but on the defiler i cant help but think the battle cannon looks far too plain for a model as detailed as this

    1. Hmm... You may be correct. It'l receive some pitting with my dremel, but I can see what you mean. I think I'll have to wait until the model is close to complete - I also don't want it to be too cluttered, a tendency I have with my conversions. :D
