Just a quick update on my plans for Dreadtober this year. As I've started working on my Dark Eldar again, and given the Haemonculus Coven theme, it seemed fitting to do a Talos for the event. I've got the kit and have started constructing it, so work is already underway.
As with most Dark Eldar kits, it's a really nice thing. Just great details all round, from the grizzly flesh-hooks that hold its carapace on; to the emotionless mask head and all the tanks and vials. That said, as I started building, one thing struck me as odd - the lack of legs. Sure, it floats, but the Talos has a perfectly formed hip section with ports just screaming out for a suitable pair of legs to be added. So, in the interests of science, certain conversion works will be conducted.
Luckily, here at Tabletop Apocalypse, the design department were able to sketch out a rough idea of what a futuristic space elf monstrosity with legs might look like:
Don't rush yourself, just take it all in. Obviously, this is just an impression of what the final piece could look like, but I think you'll all agree it has great potential...
That concept.......sublime.
ReplyDeleteYeah. If a project's worth doing its worth doing right!
DeleteSweet Jesus, that's perfect!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I might have to give the design department a raise!
DeleteExcellent choice! Good luck for Dreadtober
ReplyDeleteThe Talos, or the red and white striped elf stockings?
DeleteAh, so you are making an Harlequin Talos?
ReplyDeleteWell if you pull those legs and paint job off you will have reached perfection.
