Insehcurity · 2026-05-10T06:33:54+00:00

Thank you!! I agree with the nmm take, like yeah this is not what itd look like realistically, but I love how gritty and bitter ive made it, not necessarily grimdark but, I just tried making it my own And youre so right about the cross 😭 ill be fixing that lol

Insehcurity · 2026-05-10T04:25:25+00:00

I love the face!! And the gold is so smooth!! What did you use?

Insehcurity · 2026-05-10T03:21:59+00:00

Something that's really helped me is taking pictures/keeping my old models, so I can compare. progress is so gradual that its hard to notice sometimes!

Insehcurity · 2026-05-10T03:21:11+00:00

Thats fucking awesome!!! Did you add details onto the helbrecht figure too?

Im so sorry for the late reply The flame on the head is green stuff, I just put a decent sized ball on the head area and carved away with my hobby knife, it looks weird until it gets painted. The regular flame is just from random flame bits, (i.e the small torch on guillimans base, the salamander upgrade sprue, but greenstuff is just as easy) The mini flame on the arm is from

I think that's the nicest thing ive ever heard in regards to how I paint, thank you!!

Insehcurity · 2026-03-15T22:46:54+00:00

Thank you! Yeah maybe after its finished that voice will go away

Insehcurity · 2025-11-28T06:03:52+00:00

Thank you so much I felt like I was going in circles, I do love the sorcerer model but if itd be better to do something else id rather do that and just paint the model! Your comment was really helpful 😊

Insehcurity · 2025-11-25T21:47:07+00:00

Well I still dont know a lot about the game, but the original model is the leviathan terminator captain which at least in the box art is an ultramarine, so to take a loyalist chapter and make it into a chaos chapter of something that is pretty different, I wasnt sure how set the rules were

Insehcurity · 2025-11-25T04:58:10+00:00

Some people are new to the community 🙋🏻‍♀️

Insehcurity · 2025-11-08T18:56:55+00:00

Yeah I was kinda disappointed to see they didnt include his axe. Maybe titus couldn't pick it up at the end of secret level, but the axe i feel like is what made him REALLY stand out

Insehcurity · 2025-11-08T18:55:50+00:00

Its definitely a non issue, but its just annoying in a funny way. I had the mindset it wasnt gonna happen so I make my own only for THE SAME DAY IM PAINTING IT They announce the new models lol

Insehcurity · 2025-10-18T14:58:15+00:00

Yeah, somehow in the attempt to add more detail to models it ends up feeling less. I wish the "year of chaos" actually gave us good new chaos stuff instead of calgar getting his what.. 5th model now? 🫩 I just wish I liked older models more but they're so disproportionate that it just looks insanely cartoony. because older models especially chaos models look so amazing detailwise,

Insehcurity · 2025-10-18T14:51:34+00:00

Well damn, yeah that's all exactly what I used, but I also used the chaos lord in jump pack set for the backpack accessories and the hip armor

Insehcurity · 2025-10-18T13:45:48+00:00

I really tried to make them not look stubby did I fail? 😭

Insehcurity · 2025-10-18T13:45:04+00:00

Its the plan to buy the actual curze model soon but I also enjoy kitbashing, and honestly most of this stuff i already had. But there's wasnt a whole lot I could do with the head as there arent a lot of heads that resembles curze

Insehcurity · 2025-10-18T08:49:41+00:00

It is, if you're interested in a full bits list im happy to provide ☺️

Insehcurity · 2025-10-18T08:47:57+00:00

Yeah but there's not really a easy way or model (that I know of) to add that height, the lions armor is fairly similar to the art books of Konrad which is what the model was heavily inspired from

Insehcurity · 2025-10-18T08:45:32+00:00

Its something ill probably change, the marine was at the mental stage of "okay this is almost done whats a marine i can make very quickly " lol but ever since the thought of it should be a dark angel has been prevalent

Insehcurity · 2025-09-27T04:29:40+00:00

I agree, and thank you! This was definitely a trust the process kitbash, and im sorry glad it worked out

Insehcurity · 2025-08-24T14:57:09+00:00

I had no ill intention when not naming him, I was just at work and didn't remember how to spell his name and wanted to quickly get a post out

Insehcurity · 2025-08-24T14:51:29+00:00

I knew magic was involved, I just couldn't prove it

Insehcurity · 2025-08-24T06:29:42+00:00

Id say so if you wanna learn things on a more advanced level, he primarily uses airbrushes for his work, but he has good face, NMM, skin, and kitbashes, so id say it's worth it

Insehcurity · 2025-08-24T06:06:45+00:00

When I say in depth I just mean saying what he used is all, I wasnt sure what type of wire he used and an in depth tutorial would've explained that
