Pre-Heresy Kharn


Recommended Posts

i had started posting this on another board when i realised i hadnt shared it here...

 

I decided i wanted to do a pre-heresy version of Khârn the Betrayer (pre-betrayal) to go with my very slowly growing pre-heresy worldeaters force (this will make 5 :lol:)

here's what i'm basing it on

while i really like the style of the piece i dont like the colour sceme the artist chose so mine is going to be proper pre-heresy blue and white world eater.

 

here's the pre-paint piccys

Nice bit of plasticard work. Definitely Kharny. But the pose is a bit lacking somehow...I would picture him raising his power axe higher. And more of a pet peeve of mine, I find the right Berzerker arm mismatching the normal CSM left arm but again it's my peeve. Planning to splatter that armour with generous amounts of blood?
Great plasticard work, but why is it a power axe instead of a chain axe?

 

Agreed.

 

Lol how can you 'agree' to an inquiry..? :D

 

To OP - he looks fantastic. Where/how did you get the shoulderguards might I ask?

 

I meant that I agree that I think he should have a chain axe.

well first up thanks for the comments guys :(

i tried to keep the pose similar to the picture and i didnt really want to start cutting and greenstuffing (i HATE greenstuff)

 

the reason i chose a power axe over a chainaxe is, throughout the horus heresy series the constant them seems to be captians and such are equiped with power weapons so i decided since Khârn was captain of the 8th company he was deserving of one.

since it's pre-heresy he wouldnt have been given GORECHILD yet either.

Isn't Gorechild described as an artifact of the great crusade? It was around pre-heresy, but i suppose its up to you if this is him before he got it. Personally i would go with Gorechild because its such a huge part of Khârn, and i personally find the plastic poweraxe to be a bit underwhelming and not do him justice. Although your paintjob on it is excellent.
Gorechild was around during the great crusade but at the time it was (along with it's twin GOREFATHER) were being used by Angron himself.

Angron gifted Gorechild to Khârn when he took up the Black Sword given to him by Horus when he ascended to Deamonhood

 

Did you guys ever see the movie Groundhog Day? That was kind of like when the guy asked Bill Murray about the weather....

 

 

Anyway, awesome conversion. Really like the idea and the model. The subtle transitions in color make me a little jealous. (okay, a little more than a little)

 

Great stuff.

Planning to splatter that armour with generous amounts of blood?

 

It just wouldn't be a "Lonewolf special" without it, would it? :Elite:

Khorne's teeth! What was I thinking?! :Troops:

 

Still just sane enough to keep all of his armour on.

Seems like Khârn has a bit of a nudist streak in him post heresy.
