BurryTheMad Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 So I'm doing a Warhammer 40,000 themed play through and want ED-E to come along for the fun. Problem is he doesn't really fit in with my mighty band of Imperial Fists. Mainly because the total conversion mod made him a Tau Drone. Can anyone help?

BurryTheMad Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 It was pointed out to me I should explain what a servo skull is. A servo skull is a little helper bot built form the skull of a human or sometimes canine, typically with the lower jaw absent and small hover motor in the bottom rear. Its tools and weapons very from skull to skull but in this case would likely be a small laser, sensor & manipulator. A example: http://wh40000.ucoz.net/novosti/370773816.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devinpatterson Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Because of the way ED-E is setup (his/her/it's skeleton) I can actually do this for you (I believe). It won't look exactly the same, but it will look like a skull with some tech gear/elements. I'll look into it for you and see what I hack together.

BurryTheMad Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 Thank you. I just threw an example out there. Servo skulls are a varied as the people they're made from so no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK first initial work, vid; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xk7v9E9W00&feature=youtu.be Ran it through all animations and it looks fairly well behaved. I'll probably throw some other models together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurryTheMad Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 Sir, you've blown my mind. Just bleach the skull a bit and etch some roman numerals on the side with optional big red optic in one eye socket and it'll look like something out of official artwork.

Just bleach the skull a bit and etch some roman numerals on the side with optional big red optic in one eye socket and it'll look like something out of official artwork. Sure, no problem to lighten the skull, etc. Let me know what you want to use as the optic (you can save me some legwork). I'll probably finish up this model first but make a few variants. spetacular. Thank you That looks truly terrifying :ohmy: Warhammer really does have some amazing lore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurryTheMad Posted January 25, 2017 Author Share Posted January 25, 2017 That looks truly terrifying :ohmy:FUN FACT: The skull used to make a servo skull is often from a respected member of the community who passes away. It symbolically lets them continue supporting their community long after death. Sure, no problem to lighten the skull, etc. Let me know what you want to use as the optic (you can save me some legwork). I'll probably finish up this model first but make a few variants. A laser sight from a pistol with only the beam aperture visible or the rear optic from a gauss rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
