Lucio Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Yup, those are visually distinct from the front but so feel like the same creature. The darker one feels older, the more ornate howdah befits it's status as the veteran. The younger, lighter one is still settling in, it's crew yet to win many treasures or accolades, they decry the symbol of their master because they're brash upstarts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizara Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 they both look good, however my only issue is the green tongue. It stands out. I do like it, nothing wrong with it, but when paired up, i feel the first one should be given a similar color to its tongue, it would also break up some of that dark red color on it, but I feel that feature should be shared, maybe a darker tongue than the younger and brighter looking mammoth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleb Daark Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 they're awful. You might as well give them to me right now and buy another pair and start again. As the owner of war mammoths, these are brilliant. I think the model works really well as a mammoth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melcavuk Posted May 7, 2019 Author Share Posted May 7, 2019 Adding in some gore and spittle to the two mammoth conversions, nurgles rot for the green tongue, blood for the blood god for the more red tongued. And some water effect for saliva and hanging globules. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucio Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Showed these pictures to Phill Kelly at WarhammerFest whilst we were chatting about the AoS community, he thought they were amazing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconder Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Hey there. I will also be going to the June Throne of Skulls Doubles with my friend and I am really looking forward to seeing your mammoths for sure. These look really awesome, the level of detail just works so well and just screams Khorne (or that might be the screams of the dying enemies under them). The Gargantuan Squiggoth just seems to work as a base for the creature too. I'll be keeping an eye out for your army especially if you nominate one of them for the painting competition too. Speaking of the event, have you noticed the event itself is no longer on the calendar in the Warhammer World website, do we know what is going on there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm confident it's just that the site has had an update to format and they haven't added all the events, there's plenty not on that list that should be looking at the ones on Eventbrite where you actually get the tickets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to dig through various Facebook posts to refund the event pack after it came off the site. I’m curious as to if it’s been removed to allow the event pack to update with forbidden power and GHB2019 as acceptable rules listings, given that both should release before the event day, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draconder Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 This is looking amazing. I love the use of the Hexgorger Skulls on the sides, there is not mistaking who's faction this is for. One other little detail I like is how you did the base as the creature to look like its feet is sinking into the earth due to its own immense weight.
