Space Hulk Librarian: The Base (II)

            Hi folks! Time to finish the base of the Librarian, on the previous entry i almost did it, but it still need working and more detailing. Well, here we go!: First, green stuff on every hole or detail that we don´t want to be "flat". I did a little breather hole in the shape of an imperial eagle (or a winged bug, it depends on who you ask...) covering the plastic bits near his left foot:


Mechanicum work. That is, mostly crap.

Green stuff covering the rest


         The part of the base under the stairs was someting that needed more inspiration. I went for a "flooded" area. With toxic slime. Typical imperial :P. So, first, a bit of green stuff on the pipe to make the pouring liquid: 


And other details to make it look better.


            At this point i noticed a mistake. When i was going to cover the empty space behind the right feet, i saw that with the plasticard "level" in position, there was a hole between both pieces.

First piece


Crap

                Couldn´t change it without entering a world of troubling, so i though on another more easy way to fix it...


Floor in position (I)


Floor in position (II)

            Also, several details in other zones of the mini. Tried to give them a "xenos" appearance, after all the termie is on a Space Hulk, and those places aren´t exactly clean...

Space Hulk Librarian: The Base (I)

              Hi again my friends: last entry show several of my ongoing proyects, and i think it´s time to prove that they are not "dead" proyects. So, let´s go with the work i choose to finish first: A Space Marine Librarian on Terminator Armour. Specifically, the Space Hulk Board Game Librarian (mainly because i lose a bet and was "forced" to do it :P). There are a lot of pictures, so i will do two entries:


Converted in several points, with legal base
     
              The firs problem i found with this mini (aside from being a blood angel mini and his "Look! i found an axe! pose) it´s the base he comes with (the two steps). Nice on a Space Hulk battle, but with a 40k round base lacks... let´s say, "logic". Feels wrong. So, time to work!:

From the GW movement trays. Perfect for pipes!




            He needed another level to come down from so... hop!

Plasticard. With a hole for the feet.

Hop!
   
        Glued the pipes, and saw that it wasn´t enought. Another piece of an sprue and ready....



Nearly the same hight
