Blood Bowl Conversions: Humans

                 This has been a year of green stuff mostly, it seems. Why do I say this? because apart from the Infinity stuff  you´ve already seen I have done and/or finished at least other two conversions. Funny thing, they all have been human blood bowl miniatures, that goes along another two conversions i did long time ago. Since i didn´t post them yet here, now is the time to show them in all their glory.

                First two where made a long time ago, the other two, this year:

Blitzer

Infinity Conversions:

                  I did other conversions this year, again mostly for my friend Von_Drake (hum, maybe I should look for new friends...). These where two projects he has for infinity that asked me to help him with (Ok, I ended up doing them almost by myself actually...)


                  Hazrail with HMG

                  Started like a simple weapon swap, i swear. But then, the arms where so much different from the new model I decided to go for a "missing link" between the older model and the new: Not a great conversion, he has really big arms now but well, it´s something... :P

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

A bunch of Projects

          Well, like any good hobbyist i rarely only have one project at a time. Truth be told, i rarely ONLY have less than ten, but maybe it´s just me.... Anyways, y just wanted to do a little showcase of what i´m actually working onto...

             First, the next mini that i will paint: the Librarian from the Space Hulk box. It was almost ready to prime and paint, so this year is his year!. The plastic things? You will see..

Who stores, has (except space :P)

            

                 Second: another Necron gift from my friend Von Drake. Nearly 99% of my Merry Band of `Crons is a gift from him, so maybe i should pait one...

There will be a tuto. For a good reason...

             Third!: No, not an Imperial Strike Cruiser, a ship from the Dystopian Wars game (an Anctartica ship, actually). Bought this last year, don´t want them to stay unpainted for another year (at least, not ALL the fleet)

Hope there are no rebels close...

                  

                   And last but not least, this one: Yes, i know i already have an sculpting contest, but... this little fellah appeared from nowhere and... well, you know

It will not be a Slimer mini...

                    
                   Well, hope you´re interested, see you soon! :D

+++++++++++++++++ INITIATING TRANSLATION++++++++++++++++

             Bueno, la intención de este post es mostraros los proyectos en los que estoy trabajando ahora mismo. Más bien, los principales, que siempre tengo una recua de ellos en lista de espera XD. Las fotos vienen a ser:

• La próxima mini a pintar: el Bibliotecario del Space Hulk. Los trozos de matriz tienen una explicación... que se os dará con el tiempo :P
• Las piezas de necrones. Parte de otro PaP que haré.... un milenio de estos XDDD.
• La navecita del Dystopian Wars. Compré la flota el verano pasado, estaría bien que pintase alguna pieza :P. De paso será una buena práctica para esculpir oleajes ^_^U.
• Lo último es un proyectillo que surgió así de repente... y no, no es una mini de Moquete XDDDD. Ya os enseñaré cuando la acabe, pero podéis ir adivinando.... ;)

              Y eso es todo amigos, esperemos que la próxima entrada ya sea de un proyecto en firme (y si no, se siente :P). 

           ¡Nos vemos!

 

Rhino descubierto

    Bien, hacía tiempo que quería escribir este tutorial y hoy es un día tan bueno como cualquier otro (además así luego lo subo en un foro guiri que les debo un artículillo :P).  El caso que se nos presenta es el siguiente: Rhino de los Marines Espaciales, único transporte que puede abrirse por arriba pa que su tripulación reparta amor en forma de balas del calibre 90 (o más). La miniatura viene con las puertas separadas, pero o las pegas abiertas, o cerradas (porque dejarlas sueltas es como tener un lego), con lo que el efecto es bastante cutre. La mayoría de las veces las pegas y vía.

    Bien, pues yo me propongo enseñaros cómo hacer que vuestros Rhinos tengan las puertas superiores móviles, de tal manera que puedan abrirse y cerrarse al gusto (y de paso que se vea mejor el interior, que ya que lo trae coñe, enseñarlo!). Es bastante sencillo, pero aún así trataré de ir explicando los pasos de la manera más simple posible.


1: Cortar bisagras (dificultad 1)
        Lo que se ha dicho, coged una sierra (o lo que sea que utilicéis pa cortar) y cortad las bisagras como en la foto:

2: Meter alambre  (dificultad 3)
       Lo segundo más difícil del tutorial. Con el taladro, perforad 3/4 de cada bisagra (por lados opuestos claro) y colocad un alambre. El alambre debe mantener ambas bisagras a la misma distancia que estaban en la puerta! (si se os va la mano perforando no pasa nada, cuestión de poner un poquillo de masilla verde pa tapar el agujero. Eso si, NO-REPITO-NO PEGUÉIS EL ALAMBRE A LAS BISAGRAS.
