Re: Something Big this way comes....A Thunder Lizard Seige Tower

Ok so little update. Horde-o-bitz fell through for me. Ordered $55.00 of bitz and waited for over a month and a half for them. Gave up and got my money back. So now I am thinking I will just go ahead a prime and paint after building the rest of the Skinks and work out the steering with two Kroxigars. More to come soon.

I had a bad experience with them as well. I wanted to combine my shipping. I contacted them, they never replied. I had to pay separate shipping for 3 orders at the same time. I complained about it, I told them that they should have a better way to do that. I even phrased it nicely and gave them a good rating on ebay.

Flash forward 6 months. I tried to order something else from them...I was banned as a buyer!!!!!

All I can say is that it will be a cold day in hell before I buy any bits from those guys!!!

True...according to the story it takes the will of a powerful slann sway them from their path.

if am not mistaken a slan didn't make it and the thunder lizard just crushed a temple-city in it's way



fantastic job. i am really amazed

Re: Something Big this way comes....A Thunder Lizard Seige Tower

unbelievable
if GW really makes a thunder lizard for the storm of magic, you could easily challenge them

Re: Something Big this way comes....A Thunder Lizard Seige Tower

Stelios, you are right. But maybe this one is a baby

Matis: Thanks for the complement. I hope GW taps me on the shoulder for this I am hoping to get this into "Whats New Today" on the GW sit.

Hey all of you should send them emails telling them to feature me

Re: Something Big this way comes....A Thunder Lizard Seige Tower

Re: Something Big this way comes....A Thunder Lizard Seige Tower

So I sent a WIP pic to the "Whats New Today" and they said its AWESOME. Only think is that the Dewback is too "non-GW" they said I should make it look more GWish. How can you make something that they don't make look more like something they would? I am not a pro with greenstuff so I would be not so willing (myself) to add scales or something. I thought that it should still look like a "Gentle Giant" then a fierce scales and horns monster. Any thoughts? Also if the weather holds out I will be priming soon

Still have to figure out the Kroxigor stering solution..I got the latest editions of Kroxigors and they look a little to big for the side platforms...I think I need to create a whole platform just for them...

You, sir, are amazing. That thing could trash entire armies on its own.

Thunder Lizards trash CITIES. Armies are not a problem.

Very cool model, now it needs rules...

Yeah, he could have that bored look over his face, just like slann
that would fit much more than the "enraged stegadon" GW style

UPDATE!!!! WOOO HOOO...

Sorry to everyone who has been watching this post. So many things to do in RL and I have two major projects for Games Day this year....but I made HUGE progress this weekend on painting the main platform. Its not done yet but I thought I would at least let you in on the progress....

I still need to dry brush and clean up some slips but overall this is the general theme of the SUPER Engine of the Gods.















And now more on the Display.....

I still have to air brush and make the trees look a little more realistic. Add flocking and water effects....







My soon to be Swimmers....

I find that my limited knowledge of the english language doesn't allow me to express how I feel about this project.

Amazing is the first word that came to my mind before it was completly blown up by the sheer awesomeness of what you are doing. The Super EotG looks really good, the crystal-like rock you used looks really good. I'm curious about the rope that seems to lead to the mouth of the dewback, I can't see where it goes. It looks like a briddle of some sort but the picture doesn't allow me to figure it out by myself. What is it???

You deserve a lot of credit for what you are doing and certainly deserve your work to be showcased somewhere.

Keep us updated on your progress!!!

Re: Something Big this way comes....(***Update April 25th***)

I was hoping that when I got my reply email it'd be an update this time.
Well, it was, and good sir, you have made the last day of my holidays quite good (seeing as i've got to do a montage of homework shortly).

I gotta say, I love the way you painted those Skink shield on the Super Engine, they look like.... like... like gemish armor thingies. It's amazing. Please, do paint the rest of it that well!
