Icarus's blog: "Hurts to watch."

Is that I've got 20 other ideas that will eventually turn into projects.

All of which probably involve fewer intricacies and require less practice than this one.

Sooooo

Deathscythe.

I put down some preliminary sketches, and I decided to stick with the whole wings/redemption thing.

And Out of my brain popped a seraphim.

Why not? He has all the hinges necessary for six wings and a sword (what I often interpret the 7th wing to be in my work :P)

So I have... Huge.
Plans.

For this kit.

Color scheme is light metallic trim
White body (pearl finish if I can get it)
and dark purple panels

Torso/waist mods:
planning to reshape the panels to resemble a crusader's tunic
paneling some of the cockpit and less organic designs
may remove back-skirt, current design impedes maneuverability.

limb mods:
none planned at the moment

Wing mods:
extensive.
Possibly scrap building all new wing/armor plates (or just sanding off some surfaces) and crafting "feathers" and attaching to the outside of all six wings.

Backpack mods:
half tempted to throw the damn thing away.

Weapon mods:
Crafting a massive sword possibly retaining some of the existing parts/blade shapes and recasting in another color
-redesigning "buster" shield to... actually work as a shield instead of some crazy lazer tunneling jet propelled weapon.

Head mods:
Also extensive
planning a face plate redesign in the style of a crusader helm (specifically the judgement mask from WoW with a different color scheme) and removing several surfaces and redesigning the helmet from some crazy kraut/samurai helmet into something more similar to a hood or shroud.
Probably recolor the eyes light light light blue

If I do this the way I'm thinking
there really might not be any turning back

I'm talking part removal at this point
full cut
putty
sand
paint.

I haven't the faintest idea as to how I'll make the feathers they might just be feathered lines... I mean, seraphim are "searpents of fire" I could maybe just funk the panels a bit and make some wild directional lines and call it a day.

A lot easier to sketch it...

This is a way
way down the line project.

But hey, I've got a plan :P

Make babies.
