[So]Rice's Axis Gorillas

By [So]Rice, in Dust Tactics

Here are a set of Gorillas being painted for Christopher Smith, the winner of the Dust Tactics World Championship. I hope you and and everyone like the, C&C is welcome.

The pictures are pretty bad, I'll take daytime pictures tomorrow.

I don't know how to edit, but thank you Moiterei_1984 for the tutorial, it gave me a lot of ideas!

Wow, those things are SCARY!

What did you make the dribbling blood of? Won't it snap off?

Thank Loophole Master.

The blood is made of fishing line superglued onto the model. It is stained with 4:1:1 Tamiya Clear Red: GW Badab Black: GW Devlan Mud. The paint naturally pools at the bottom making the blood effects. I'm pretty sure it won't snap off since the fishing line is flexible. It looks very fragile though...

Heyyy, those are nice! Loving the blood and gore effects! Only thing I would have done differently is this: on the middle most Gorilla, I would have made the blood drips flying to the right of the model, as they way they are now, they look a bit static, just hanging there.

Still, you have me stoked to get my hands on a box of Gorillas!

The apes are great! I love 'em. You've done a better job than me. Mainly the blood & gore is absolutely fantastic.

Fishing line's a great idea. Thanks for posting those, they look excellent.

Never thought of using fishing lines. Thanks for the tip and +1 to you.
