CCXXXVI. Greater Bloodfiend

A Greater Bloodfiend, which I've made for an art trade with @thesigilist. Just like their smaller, bipedal cousins, Greater Bloodfiends are spirits of ancient warhorses that were fed a carnivore's diet.




Bloodfiend and Greater Bloodfiend.

This model is converted from parts of a Perry plastic horse and a skull I sculpted for Harwood Hobbies. The rest is putty.

Bone trees from @helgewilhelm arrived in the mail. Thanks Helge! They will be perfect scenery for my Necrons. Seems I'll have to buy the other three variants that are in preparation, too. Real pig bones were used to create the originals, and the lovely textures were well preserved in these resin casts. They're still available in Helge's Etsy shop.

  2. Looks like the Greater Bloodfiend has a bit more attitude as well. Prancing about like a fancy boi while nipping heads off!

    Those bone trees look fantastic!

  4. Who would have guessed, that making the horse's torso so short, you could create such a wonderfully creepy effect! Amazing stuff!

  7. This is a great model and a superb addition to the regular bloodfiend. The long curled tail is a very nice touch, adding some more non-equine creepiness.
