Tutorial - World Eaters Contemptor Dreadnought Part #2 - Legs

So let's start off with the statically posed B@C Plastic Contemptor model. 


Before you assemble the front and back halves, you will need to cut the center pelvis area from the legs, leaving the rounded hip bearings and upper legs attached to the lower legs. Trim this as close to the upper leg bearings. This should be fairly easy if you do this before you glue the front and back together.







Above is the two sections that you'll want to aim to cut. The front and rear sections of the pelvis.



Make the first two cuts as close to the outer portion of the hip joints, Aim to make this as flush to those as possible.





The third cut is across the top of the pelvis. Again try to make the cut as close to the bottom of the lower torso as you can. This is more to salvage to lower torso section as this will be where you will mount a magnet, later.

This will give you a front section and a rear section for the pelvis area and the legs.

Now, next you'll need to grab your handy-dandy spare Cas…

Guess what the cat dragged in.



Yup, no Vlka Fenryka force would be complete without a squad of Sisters of Silence, or Adeptus Sororitas (Sisters of Battle). Especially for when the Rout burns Prospero.
So I grabbed a Box of Dream Forge Games Eisenkern PanzerJagers, added some WH40k SternGuard Bolters and Statuesque Minatures 28mm Female heads. And off I went.

Horus Heresy Characters - Master of Mankind - The God Emperor of Mankind #3

Yes, I am back, it's been a while. And this time around, I got a chance to do a bit of a do-over on my Master of Mankind, the Emperor.



You'll remember where I had left of on this model (See below). Whilst it was a fun conversion, I just didn't feel it captured the essence of the Emperor.



So when the new Roboute Guilliman (aka Row-boat Girly-man) was released I knew I just had to make the conversion.

The basis of the Guilliman is truly a pretty model. Lots of detail. So what could I alter to make him look like the Emperor?
Well, I focused on the areas of the highest detail, which could be re-constructed:
HaloShoulder PadPower ClawBaltea (hanging leather waist straps)


So starting with the Power Claw, I used a jewelers saw to cut the hand from the arm. This will enable me to re-position the hand into a position were it appears that the Emperor is conjuring. I then re-cast some claws from the ForgeWorld Resin Kor Phaeron miniature and attached them to the fingers.







Next up I began wor…
