The resilient Magmakin make their homes in
extremely hot and hostile climates. Often seen
in the proximity of gas vents or active volcanoes,
Magmakin thrive by absorbing heat and carbon
from lava flows and adding it to their own bulk.
Their epidermal layer is composed of dried
lava that is as hard as a rock and as resilient
as carapace armor. Highly territorial, these
fiery creatures will protect their domain and
their young fiercely against intruders and often
charge headlong into the enemy with reckless
abandon.
These Magmakin models were made by John Shaffer.
The Magmakin baby model was made in a similar
fashion, but a heavily modified Kroot Hound
was used as the basis for the creature.

John started with a body of a Cold One,
arms from a Tyranid Biovore, and a Beastmen
Tuskgor head (flipped upside down and with
the horns removed) as the basis for his
conversion.
When all of the parts were glued together,
John covered the model in Green Stuff and
textured the surface with a sculpting tool.
He then flattened out multiple pieces of
Green
Stuff and set them aside to dry. When the
pieces were dry, he cut and shaped them
into
rocky plates with a hobby knife, carefully
glued them into place, and left a narrow
channel
of the underlying texture showing through.
