So, by comparative analysis, corrective steps would be:

Shorten the waist to 60% of its current length, and double its thickness;
Widen the ribcage by 75%;
Rotate the front kneecaps clockwise from 300 degrees to 340 degrees.

We love you, man! Keep at it.

I second Ottermans comments. Andi reccomend adding a pair of mandibles to its head (or use a Ripper head?)

Cool looking thing though :)

She is a beauty, but does need fattening up.  Her waist should b wider than a carnifex.

Aye I think she's certainly not my best.

On the other hand she's impressively big. :D

I'm trying not to use GW parts in my sculpts, so using ripper mandibles is out... I can try sculpting them though. :)


The problem with putting mandibles on the head is that it will require an extra mold, and she is already a 7 piece model.

Personally i don't need mandibles..i have lot of spare Dark Eldar helmets which have enough pointy things to use for mandibles :D

But for more headache: the FW Hierophant has 3 rows of spines not only one :D

I filed that one under 'impossible to even contemplate'.

I can't see how it could be done without casting all the required spines on a seperate sprue; If I were to do a Hierophant that was that faithful to the original design, you're talking about a model with 15+ components, for something smaller than a Reaver Titan (6 components).
