2nd Company Ultramarine WIP

[Spartan Devastator]

Yeah wellbive picked up some major steam for this again, expect some major updates in the near future. I only have about 60% more of the right left to do and 6% of the left to finish and ill be done with the exception of some needed heraldry for the rest of the armor and some minor details. I'm so close to being finished I'm so excited.

Sweet, looking forward to the updates

 

[Spartan Devastator]

My wife and I got something that I am going to use to rig up the thighs to wear that will distribute the weight evenly and be adjustable. The great thing about this is when I get around to building my Stormtrooper this should be able to work with it too.

here is what the back looks like

Here is the chest and my ab armor for reference

here it is with my leg in progress

the rear view, and I know I have no butt, it sucks

side view.
Let me know what you guys think!! need more glass and bondo and I will continue work on the right leg and loincloth

This is shaping up very nicely. All of the detail work so far really stands out. It all seems scaled about perfectly, and seems to be very mechanically manageable. Keep up the good work buddy.

[Mstruvmgc]

[Spartan Devastator]

Its a surprise but its got Shakespearian influence to it should have that worked on today and might be done by the end of the week with that part.

 

[Spartan Devastator]

got the front loincloth finished, its been painted and tea dyed. Also finished writing the text on it.

I feel like there is still a bit more I ca do with it, but I dont know yet what to do. Let me know what suggestions you guys have for other stuff I can do to age/weather it up or if you think it is fine as is.

 

[Toja]

excellent!

 

[Admiral Tiberius]

I don't think anyone would say your cloth doesn't look great! Good work. If I were you I would use a lighter to singe and blacken the edges and the like. Always cool to see a 40k build, keep it up!

 

[DBmike]

love the loin cloth and the inscription on it

 

[Spartan Devastator]

Thanks guys!

I love the cloth, the writing is amazing. You must have spent forever on it. however much time you actually did put on it, the results are well worth it.
