Thread: My Venom Challenge Entry

Let me know what you think.

It was fun to do. But I burned so much time on the modeling that I had to rush the paint job. I still got real close to what I had intended though.

This was my Fluff:
Jagged - The 3rd Venom of 10 in the pirate fleet of Duke Sepsis. Know for hiding in asteroid fields and spacehulk debris for unwary passers by, or raiding the bowels of Hive Cities, all ships in Sepsis' fleet are devoid of decorative paint and other cosmetic affectations. The ships are simply allowed to rust and patina - the better to blend into their usual hunting grounds. Though the pride of many of the crews gets the better of them so a certain amount of tribal and squadron identification is permitted, if only to pacify the unruly members of the warband.

That's badass.

nice job!

Is the front of it based off a Vyper, or is it just plasticard?

Jim, I haven't won this one...hell, it hasn't even started, but I appreciate the vote of confidence.

Oh, and thanks guys, for all the compliments. Yes, Dude, its a Vyper canopy - modified heavily.

Yeah, I agree. I think thats why I opted not to actually connect them, but to leave it floating like a fairing or nose cowl on a sportbike. I think that actually helps the speed illusion and adds more visual depth to the model.
