Ethereal Sword Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 YAY go Dog House and your amzaing CSK(of doom) funniest d.i.y marine chapter I've seen apart from the emperors pointey sticks. :D Please sir may we have some more/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/107725-cosmic-space-knights-of-doom/page/6/#findComment-1288164 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Can't help but notice.. You indroduced the company champion but never showed us him. Might I suggest in lieu of the original model, that Large McHuge actually be made from a ratling or other very short model. Maybe even an epic marine, for extra comic effect. Just say that he couldn't be shown to scale, because he'd dwarf the rest of the army, or that he'd be hit by some kind of xeno shrinking ray. I dunno, use your imagination.

Doghouse Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 Cheers guys!  Just added some heraldry but I need to tidy it up a little.  http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196/Mutt2050/DSC02412_00.jpg  http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196/Mutt2050/DSC02411_00.jpg  http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196/Mutt2050/DSC02408_00.jpg  Not bad for a couple of hours work though...    NemFX:: The Company Champion will be the first to get finished along with the rest of the command squad if I get around to returning to this army proper. All depends on whether I get the Space Sharks army finished though.

Bloodwraith Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 what colour did you use for that yellow as it looks stunning? Great looking army so far looking forward to seeing more.

Berzerker Pezz Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Ordered some SM sprues for the mini-persona project, and NOW I think I'll have to do a tribute mini to the CSK(od) or the Screaming Weasles. I had thought to do a funny chapter myself, but you beat me to it XD I hope, if I continue and make my own humerous chapter, I hope you won't take it as copying or anything. It's going to be far off of course, I want to collect a serious chapter first. Â 3/4 of my modelling ideas for Golden Demons in the future are humerous, too. I think 40k should always be fun in the mind of the modeller and player. Â Kudos man, I'll keep watching this.

Doghouse Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 Cheers guys! :) Â Bloodwraith: I used the Iyandan Darksun Foundation paint and mixed in a little white for the highlighting around the edges. :) Â Berzerker Pezz: Don't worry about it mate, I doubt mine is the first parody chapter and it certainly won't be the last. I've got no problem with people using my ideas to provide inspiration for their own stuff, it's the reason why I've been posting my stuff here on the B&C for so long. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/107725-cosmic-space-knights-of-doom/page/6/#findComment-1288877 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted June 27, 2007 Author Share Posted June 27, 2007 Right just enough time to squeeze a quickie in. Something I put together whilst working on my Space Sharks. It's not great but will look better when I have finished the other three to go with these guys and they are all painted as a unit...honest.    The Clones  The vast majority of chapters maintain a strict process for recruitment to ensure the purity of their future battle brothers. Initiates are selected at an early age, screened, augmented, screened again, subjected to hypno-conditioning and then must under go battle field training as Scouts before being able to take their place amongst their brothers as a full Astartes. The CSK(od) are unfortunately not one of the vast majority. Since the introduction of the advanced and forbidden cloning device the CSK(od) are rarely under strength, often being able to deploy on the battle field as an entire chapter. Clones are created using the geneseed of the chapter's greatest living hero Maximus Vaan Damage, Captain of the first company and all round great guy.  Clone Academy The process for cloning new brothers is relatively quick, an entire Tactical squad can be created in a mere matter of hours, an entire company can be completed in a day. Clones are sent to Clone Academy and after an intense two week induction course are assigned a role within the chapter. Although theoretically speaking a Clone could live for several centuries most rarely make it past the four week mark due to accidents and battlefield errors. Anyone that makes it past five weeks is often considered a veteran.    The S.A.P.S  Most clones are assigned to the regular Tactical, Assault or Devastator squads. Those that demonstrate a degree of mechanical aptitude and can break into a Rhino using only a coat-hanger are assigned to the Techmarines, those that look good in black, like scarey skull masks and shouting alot are assigned to the Chaplains, those that look a bit wizardy, can do the freaky starey eye thing and can guess how many fingers the selector is holding up behind his back are sent to the Librarium. The Scouts however are a different story altogether. Selected just after being created they receive advanced training and are taught the skills of field craft and survival. Absolute masters of camoflage they are the chapter's silent death, an elite fighting force that occationally can actually complete a mission (or at least get really, really close to completing it without blowing themselves up). They are the proud and the few, they are the best of the best, they are the Stealth Assault Patrols.  Special Rules  S.A.P.s SAPs use the Scout stats and rules.  Masters of Disguise The SAPs are trained to blend into any enviroment..that contains some form of small shrubs, trees or bushes. Thanks to the Curse of the Absurd very few enemies will question what a small Privet hedge is doing on the bridge of their battle cruiser, figuring that is obviously supposed to be there and is clearly someone else's problem. SAPs may Infiltrate if the mission allows it.    WIP S.A.P.s  http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196/Mutt2050/DSC02413_00.jpg   http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196/Mutt2050/DSC02414_00.jpg  They're the first minis I've ever had to prune. ;)  Anyone mentions "The Knights that go Ni" and there will be trouble...

Xenox Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Aha! I see the good old "Somebody Else's Problem" field is back in action. ^_^ I mean, hell, if it works for the bistromath, I bet it works well for the scouts. Oh, and great job with the chapter master and rules lawyers, they're brilliant! Â P.S: Ni! Ni!

wokkers Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 those "scout" units remind me of an RTS game i used to play. you could disguise your scout units as trees and use them as spotters for your artillery. of course as i type this i have realised that i cannot remember the name of said game......

Kushan Blackrazor Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Absolutely wonderful! Reminds me, in a very twisted, lovely sort of way, of Turn Signals on a Land Raider. Though clearly much more deranged and warped, which just makes it all the funnier for the Dark Future.

Commander Flintlock Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Absolutely awesome work, Doghouse! Love the SAPs. Possibly the only crack infiltration unit that requires regular watering, and has a chronic fear of men named Roger. have to agree with Nem; subtly brilliant. Same goes for the rest of the chapter.

Master Toddius Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Halarious man, good stuff. I like the fact that the bolters are juuuuuuust barely out enough.

I'll try and update the rest of the squad asap (Space Sharks permiting that is...). :tu: Â Master Toddius: I'll try and update the Fire Magnet as soon as I get the chance, but I've got a lot of Space Shark stuff to finish at the moment. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/107725-cosmic-space-knights-of-doom/page/6/#findComment-1291806 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serif Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I am completely brand new to B&C, I wanted my first post to be special and and a fine entrance to this community with my DIY, but I saw your SAPs and I just had to say thank you. I have not laughed so hard (but so quietly, my wife is in bed) at a 40K thing...EVER!! Those are amazing, I appreciate the work you're putting out. As somone previously mentioned, it'd be great if you did a giant boot to "count as" a power fist. Â Cheers!

Doghouse Posted June 29, 2007 Author Share Posted June 29, 2007 Thanks guys! :) Â Serif: First off, welcome to the board. I'm glad they gave you a laugh and hope I didn't get you in any trouble with the missus. ;) Â Cheexsta: It's really difficult not to go Looney Toons on these guys and give them every acme weapon that was ever used in the Road Runner cartoons. An acme rocket packet is sooo tempting for the assault troops. I think there's a fine line between parody and out right crazyness, hopefully I'm still walking the line. It's weird when I make something that makes me laugh just as much as everyone else though, I'm often sat here thinking "What the heck was I on when I dreamt that one up?" :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/107725-cosmic-space-knights-of-doom/page/6/#findComment-1292490 Share on other sites More sharing options...
