jah-joshua Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 hey B&C... here is my latest commission work... this is another example of my basic commission standard, with the extra freehand option... i was hired to paint this guy back in November, but he didn't come up in the queue until after i finished Mephiston two months ago... luckily i didn't paint him for the Golden Bolter, or there would have been two of these guys in the comp... whoever painted the one in the contest, thanks for the ispiration on the blade... http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/jah-minis/forum%20pics/GKG.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/jah-minis/forum%20pics/GKG2.jpg the side views can be seen in the gallery submission here: http://coolminiornot.com/250965 the way the weapons stick out has made it difficult to get a standard 4 angles... i will put up a collage of the details later... for now i just wanted to show off my work before it goes in the mail... the mini is a mix of parts from Marneus Calgar in Termie armor, a Grey Knight Termie Psycannon, the Termie Librarian Force Weapon arm, the Company Champion helmet, and a halberd head from an unknown source... not a whole lot of conversion work was needed for these parts to fit together, though i did need to sculpt over the spot for the ammo feeds in his back... unfortunately, the censers from the Dark Angels kit cover my sculpting work... hope you like him... thanks for lookin'... cheers jah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Mike Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 0_o That is simply an amazing job, and damn good improvement on both the Calgar model and whatever the grand master model is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marine Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I can't find the words for how great that model is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Desmodus Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Very very nice and characterful converstion. Seamless. I'm not a big fan of the orange flame-blade, it looks a bit out of place IMHO. I think that a cold blue/turqoise would have looked better, but of course that is a matter of personal taste. Still, the paintjob is great. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justicar Valius Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Calgar base, psycannnon GK arm ok. The NFW arm, it looks like a custom made? Also The helmet, a company champion head right? Man I want one... So awseome, I voted for the one of these in Golden bolter, truely imense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justicar Valius Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Wait is the NFW arm from an old GK? It isn't a TDA libby but looks similar to the old NFW arms for termies. Awseome models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattCrawford Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Very nice! I'm thinking I might try this out for myself :huh: On that note, was there a lot of Ultramarines iconography to wipe out? The only spots I see are on the fists, which aren't used anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
