Vote - Round 12

Seeing as there is a distinct lack of female designs around I figured we could have an all female vote this round. I tried to pick a variety of options b...

Quality of Life tweaks

Just a quick one to let you know about a few little quality of life changes I've made to the structure of the collection.

To save you all the mucking around with sizing I've added versions of each design in 32mm scale, ready for dropping str...

Lich - Ready for details

I think that's about it for blocking all the major stuff in, I've been playing around with treatments for robes just trying to get a rough idea down to work off when I do a proper pass over all the pieces. Some of the cloth has been left out, it w...

Lich - Blocking in the robes

I've been messing around with a heap of different shapes and just keeping them pretty basic to see what forms work together. I'm liking where this is at so far with the exposed torso and the length of the robes, it all seems to be playing together...

Lich - Head tweaks

Only a small update today, I spent the entire weekend setting up a long overdue pc upgrade to get off the old dying laptop and back to a proper desktop. This should allow me to work more effectively now and get more out of my time.

Anyway a ...

Lich - It begins with a face

Not a whole lot going on yet but I wanted to put a face on him to get a better feel for the design.  Ideally you know what it is just by looking at it, I dont want to go full skeleton because then there is nothing to separate him from a stand...

Lich Moodboard

Well that was a landslide victory and I gotta say I'm pretty excited to tackle this one!

I've got 2 boards because there is so much cool art to take inspiration from and a few different directions it could go. I really like the mix of fine a...

Nothic has been added to the collection!

After a bunch of discussion and lessons in discord about the lore of Nothics I decided the original attacking/swiping pose I had in mind really didn't suit what these guys are about. So now he is creeping about, watching you intently from the shad...

Vote - Round 11

With the Nothic pretty much at the posing stage I figured I'd get a vote going instead of boring you with another slightly more detailed image. The reque...

Nothic - Spike rework

Had some great feedback on the first blockout of the spikes! Took it all on board, looked back over the moodboard and ended up here. They are now longer, fewer and more like a bony protrusion than 'spikes'. I'm liking where this is going now, defi...

Nothic - Spiky boi

Alright we have some more progress on this guy. The head has had a full make over, proportions and general anatomy have been tweaked, teeth and claws have been added and a basic layout for the spikes.

Before I start sculpting them in properl...

Nothic - First pass blocking out

Little update on the Nothic with a first pass on the proportions and general shape, still plenty of tweaking to come as this moves forward. After looking at the pics again there are a few things that are already jumping out - Jaw line is too human...

Nothic Moodboard

The Nothic finally came out on top!

I've been wanting to do this guy for a while now but it always only just lost out. The official design is cool but I'm really liking the tweaks bottom right pic throw in, the venom style tongue is nice as ...

Bonus Death Kiss

It was asked for, I had time, so why not. 

A Death Kiss variant with retracted tentacles has been added to the collection! I've only just finished it, no fancy renders or anything yet, just straight out for you lot. It uses the same bas...

Death Kiss is in the Collection!

The Death Kiss has been prepped and is ready to go!

In my typical style, at the full 54mm scale it's close to maxing out the standard photon/mars build plate but it fits as is with no need for chopping for it up. For a bit more of size refer...

Vote - Round 10

Round 10 already! So many things have been chosen that I never would have thought of but we have ended up with some awesome designs because of...

Death Kiss basing tweaks

I know it doesn't look like much has happened but a lot of mucking around has gone into adjusting the tentacles so we can have a proper basing option that doesn't impact the look of the mini. The last thing I want to do is have a dirty big pole st...

Deathkiss - More Tweaking

This is hard to show with only images so I've done a quick 360 to give you a better idea. I've attempted to orient the mouths at the end of the tentacles to limit any need for supports on the teeth and adjusted the overall tentacle positions for b...

Bonus Mini - Sorrowsworn - The Lonely

Alright! As promised here's that second Sorrowsworn, this time it's 'The Lonely'. He's a pretty creepy dude but he's waiting in the collection when you're ready to check him out.

Enjoy!

Death Kiss - Blocking in

Started blocking in for this dude, I'm trying to come up with a solution for the tentacles so they support each other somewhat with each tentacle touching at least one other while not making it look like a mess. It's a bit rough at the moment but ...

Death Kiss Moodboard

The Death Kiss came out on top but that was vote for vote right up until the end! 

Not a whole lot to mess with on this one, the original concept is already really cool and has a great look to it. The biggest thing will be the origin of...

Bonus Mini - Sorrowsworn - The Hungry

Remember the Oblex? It was commissioned from one of my local printers as a special request for a customer, well he's at it again. This time it's for some Sorrowsworn, 'The Hungry' is the first and there will be a second one coming.

Enjoy! 2020-07-12 13:03:33 +0000 UTC View Post

Vote - Round 9

Time for the next vote! All of the picks this round are requests I've had from you lot and I gotta say there are some pretty cool options here. I'm inter...

Armoured Fighter - Ready for Posing

Everything is at a stage now that I can start polishing, posing and adding the final details. I'm thinking chain-mail for the darker areas on the arms and I want to try adding some fur to the cape - maybe along the edges? Once the pose is locked i...

More Armoured updates

Alright I've done a heap of proportion changes to move the design away from the overly bulky cartoonish look it had and started detailing panels. It should all move a lot faster now all that is fixed up and locked in.

Armoured Fighter - Blocking almost done

Just a quick one with a more updated block out, still need to work out the major cloth elements but it's starting to take shape now!

Armoured Fighter - Blocking in

You wanted to see early WIP images so here it is! I know it's nothing overly exciting yet but that's just how hard surface modeling starts out, having a good clean base goes a long way. It lets me adjust proportions and shapes without needing to w...

Armoured Fighter Moodboard

This should be an interesting one, it gives me a chance to do some heavy hard surface modelling rather than the usual organic stuff. While I do really like main guy in the center I dont particularly have a plan for the overall look, I done a bunch...

Monocomp 9

With the great success Monocomp 8 had with the Mindflayer bust Monocure have decided to run their next competition with the Manticore! They have gone big with the prize and are putting up a Phrozen Sonic Mini for 1st place. If you missed the last ...
