sfPanzer, rise to the challenge of The Great Baalite Bake Off and vow to kitbash one Captain with Jump Pack, Relic Blade and Storm Shield on or before April 3rd, 2017. Success will bring honour to the Knights of Blood, whilst failure is not an option...

 

EDIT: copy&paste typo :tongue.:

 

First Captain entry and welcome to the event! How are you going to show it off as belonging to the Knights of Blood/Faction Blood Angels? Oh, and don't forget the iron halo :thumbsup:

 

I wanted to get the 3rd party Knights of Blood shoulderpads from shapeway (and I still may) but as said it would double the cost of the kitbash since I actually only need one and not 10 atm....for now i've planned to do a quick free-hand on one of the pauldrons if that's okay (and if the knight helmet, sword and shield aren't enough to imply it's a true knight :biggrin.: ).

 

If not i'll have to think about something else to make it clear since the only thing we know about Knights of Blood that sets them apart is the emblem and the color scheme. :tongue.:

 

EDIT: and yeah I totally forgot about the Iron Halo and had to search several bitz shops to get one. :biggrin.:

 

 

Absolutely fine, especially as the odd painted piece is kosher.

 

So here is a question. There are a few back packs with what kinda look like built in iron halos. Would this count as a halo or are we looking at original ideas?

I'm using at least one of them, because they're brilliant. Why wouldn't it count? If it looks like a halo, walks like a halo and quacks like a halo etc.

 

 

Counts-as is fine so long as it looks like what it should be. Take Dante, his is a tiara ;) TBH a Priest entry could probably get way with having a bunch of little grail gubbins everywhere (including the backpack option)...

one Captain with Plasma Pistol and Valour's Edge

Welcome aboard! Nice to see our first Priest entry; are you using the upgrade sprue grail and the Command Squad narthecium? As for the Captain, I guess it will be Aphael?

I Varred rise to the challenge of The Great Baalite Bake Off and vow to kitbash our mighty lords:

Dante,

Sanguinor, 

on or before April 3rd, 2017. Success will bring honour to the Blood Angels, whilst failure is not an option...

 

 

A side question is am i allowed to show wips in my thread or not?

 

Welcome to the event with our first Special Character entries! When I see a Special Character kitbash I want to be able to say, "yep, that's X" so keep them as accurate to their Datasheet as possible as you can please.

 

You can host WIPs here and/or on your own thread if you wish. For completions, follow the info in the OP and state it's complete :)

Welcome to the event :) Just out of interest, isn't every kitbash of a Special Character a counts-as, or will these be OOC entries? (By that I mean, for example, Dante using a power lance, Corbulo but with a jump pack, etc?)

I, Thrillhouse, pledge to convert Malakim Phoros from start to finish. Success will go torwards redeeming the lord of ruin and his unfortunate host in the eyes of the emperor.

 

Failure is not an option.

 

Our first Phoros entry, welcome! You've pretty much got a fresh slate on how this chap looks, just make sure he has something for Faction BA/Lamenters and matches his Datasheet. If you need inspiration, there's a picture of one on his guide (see my signature, Veritas vitae link).

Glad to see you entered and what a way to start with four vows!  At least you can't put us all to shame with your white painting skills in this event ;)

Yes, I will be using the upgrade sprue grail and the narthecium from the command squad. I am flip flopping on which legs to use as I now have the Van Vet sprue and there are some pretty cool older mark running legs. The alternative is the SG running legs I had originally planned on using.

 

The captain will be a count as Aphael. I should drop in artificer armor on that but the legs I am thinking of using aren't quite as fancy so that may be iffy.

I'm sure it will pass as artificier easily enough, you only really need a chest piece that's different from a regular PA one (imo). I've actually just make a Priest like that for my Command Squad but started painting it the other week. Didn't event think about it :pinch:

I Mard rise to the challenge of The Great Baalite Bake Off and vow to kitbash Techmarine armed with storm bolter and power fist on or before April 3rd, 2017. Success will bring honor to the Blood Angels, whilst failure is not an option...

 

So a future plan (could even be ETL) I plan on digging all my 2nd ed Blood Angels out of the dark giving them a wash in acetone (Painted them a good 20 years ago now) and putting together a small force Blood Angel force.... these guys will need a techmarine as I never had one back in the day. So from the bitsbox only I will construct this mighty hero!

 

Welcome aboard. Servo arm, or jump pack?

 

As for your old stuff, be sure to get a picture of them before you strip them!

Looks like Dante is another popular choice. Are you going for the easy route of using the Sanguinary Guard kit, or going for something unexpected?
