This model is my 4th scratch build, and some of you may believe iv bitten off more than i can chew. Iv so far built the armature, and his mighty warhammer. His hammer alone stands taller than my bloodthirster, and the armature stands at exactly 7" tall, not including his raised weapon. I have actualy run out of greenstuff atm, but ill have some more by next week. Heres a picture http://www.heresy-online.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=2891&stc=1&d=1243543285 of the armature, stood next to the bloodthirster for scale. His hammer is just behind him. I appreciate the pics not great, but ill be uploading better ones soon ;)

it's a shame the pics are so small, I feel like I'm missing out on some killer detail! They look good from what I can see, though I'd love to see more up close!
Have any of you tried clicking on the images to enlarge them? If tht dsnt work, heres a link http://jackd334.deviantart.com/ look in my gallery (Y)
Great stuff so far!

folks let me tell you, you defo are missing out on the killer detail on these things, they are immense, seeing them in the flesh is mindblowing,

Jack, i predict you becoming a GW/Priviteer press/professional sculpter when your older dude! Hell, you could start your own mini company up, and make up your own game for them :D plus rep for me.
True Giants!

Kholek is nearly finished, and though I have a few small sculpting projects, i still want something huge to work on. So, iv started a giant. Though once hes done, im creating his twin. Im naming them Edd and Rob ;) (edd the reaper, Riandro) lol. Hope you guys like!!:biggrin:
Kholek's face is looking much more badassd now. Very nice, well done!
Amaaaaaaazzzing greenstuff work man! I agree with Riandro, you could definitely go pro for a major company.
That actualy makes me so happy lol :') Iv emailed trollforge to find out about getting my giant cast when hes done, and perhaps i will set up my own line of minis one day :)
You should get Kholek cast man, it looks like its going to be totally amazing when its done!
This is some impressive work going on here.
Wow! Your very gifted in the sculpting skills. Nice work!:victory:
Is it legal? :/

I would love to get kholek cast, but problem is, is it legal? Gamesworkshop can be very tight on copy rights and im not sure if im allowed to cast a shaggoth. Saying this, 'Gamezone miniatures', a spanish company, have a centaur drake wich is esentialy a dragon ogre. If any of you guys know somewhere that will cast him for me that would be greatly helpfull. :biggrin:
Thats an amazing bit of sculpting you've got there.
The only citique from me is that the back legs look a little to slimline especially when compared to his arms.
plus rep from me for a great model though
As to the casting as far as I know as long as you haven't used any gw parts there's nothing to stop you casting it troll forged minis are your best bet for that kind of info though.

Thankyou for the chritisism, it helps me improve my stuff :) The back legs are still in a fairly basicstage, i just havnt yet finished bulking them out. To be honest id forgotten haha, so thankyou for reminding me :)
Hes big, but he sure aint pretty

Added a bit to the giant. He has a face (minus 1 ear n his eyebrow ring thnks to my clumsy brother) and im quite leased with him so far. Yes, hes covered in fingure prints n looks pretty rough so far but all will be ok. :grin:
awsome start on the giant, which one is this, edd or rob ?:p


cheers

edd
Coming on really well Jack. The size of Kholek is phenomenal. Is he described as being so big in the book? I know Shaggoths grow and grow but damn...
Edd: Thanks, iv reworked the giants lower jaw. Wasnt happy with it. This ones Rob xD And some pretty bad news... :/ Theyre both gunna becast by trollsforge :D
Syph: Thankyou, im glad you like him. The largest shaggoth is supposed to be bigger than the mountain he dwells on in the fluff. Kholek, is the second biggest, and regulars are supposed to tower over castle walls and forests. So, im guessing hes pretty big :p
Awesome work on these mate :eek:
Even though I'm not much of a chaos-lover, the Shaggoth always struck me as an awesome model. Yours just made the gw one look like a kid's toy..

+rep!
Female farseer commision :p

Yes, yes.. This is getting off topic but iv just found it easier to post up my work here. Unfortunately i cant change the title. But yeah, a female eldar farseer commision based from one of the DoW farseers :D Enjoy
Great sculpting, Kholek looks Great!
I'm looking forward to see him in full armour.:so_happy:
