Following on from my first post of converting up my old Pods to look like the new model, and I have done some more work on the tentacles on the base. I plan on painting the tentacles black with yellow tips, so to give me some extra colour to them I added a few dots for me to also paint yellow...
I then started work on the guns, cutting off the front sections of some Death Spitters and Barbed Stranglers I had. Adding magnets to the ends. I then made some green stuff sockets on the pod for the guns to fit into...
Hopefully these will look pretty cool once I have them painted up, and I plan on making a Venom Canon option as well...
Here is how it is looking at the moment. I am going to add a few tentacles to the sides at the bottom to finish it off. I think I will magnetise these on as well to keep storage problems to a minimal. More to come in the next update...
If you have any spare trygon head crests they would be a good way to replicate the new model and by placing them between the guns it would help to make the guns look a little less stuck on. for a quick conversion though it's looking very good.
ReplyDeleteCheers bud that's a good idea. I am sort of thinking the guns on my pod detract inwards when it isn't shooting. I think I may trim the the guns down a bit, that may look better
