Warhammer Models: The Demoman.

Description

Oh, I've had to glue This Model together... IN HELL!

For those of you unfamiliar, this is the demoman, one of the nine playable classes in the FPS co-op game by Valve: Teamfortress 2.

While not my favorate class to play in the game (depth perseption when firing stickies and 'nades...) i desided to have a crack at making at least 1 character from this game though i do intend to make th full set when i find the right materials to work with, and Demoman seamed to be the best option as i had a grenade launcher arm from my bitz box handy, and when has blowing things up not been fun?

in total it took me about 1 full week of making this model, including referance checking, part selection, filling the parts, molding the green stuff, undercoating, painting and overcoating to finish and i must say i had a blast making this ^^.

components:

Head: I used a head from the Warhammer Empire Militia 20 model boxed set, used a file to wear off the tie on the bandanage to make a skullcap, and added a small blob of greenstuff for the eyepatch.

Torso: A Catachan Jungle Fighter torso was the base, and i added greedstuff to the front to form a solid kevlar armour look as well as a collar and backstraps also made of the same meterial, in addition i added a bit more broad to the shoulders to make the vest seam a little more loose fitting.

Legs: Empire Militia again here, i took the planest legs, filled off the side-belt and small knife on the back, then added green stuff the add a fabric feel to the upper thighs as well as more greenstuff for the ankle supports oh his boots, and a sculpted blob of greenstuff formed the crotch-plate.

Left arm: i took a 'reseaving arm' from the catachan box-set and used a file to wear away the bulky muscles and the wrist band, creating a fame more flat, clothing look to the arm.

Right arm: with the Cadian grenade launcher looking almost identical to the demoman one, i had little alternative, though i spent a good 30 minites carfully filling down the shoulder, as well as the rest of the arm.
I also added a rectangular piece of flat greenstuff to make the aimer on the gun and super glued it into place.

Additional: i made the scrumpy bottle out of a blob of greenstuff, while not perfect it at least looks the part, kinda wish i had a dolls house parts store locally just for such a thing, oh well ^^'

Notes: The model took just about a week to do from start to finish.
The kevlar armour was a bit of a pain to paint more then anything, it took me about 30 minites to blend chaos black and skull white together till i was happy with the colour, needless to say ill keep the whole pot full i ended up with for the other models i plan making!

i can imagine making a work of fiction where these guy's are thrust into the 40k...too bad i believe in Sturgeon's law, so it would come out horribly paced, grammatically flawed, and it'd be a one-shot at best. also, why didn't you cut out the areas in between Demo's gun sight? great job, btwConga
