wiplash Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 model looks absolutely brilliant definately a worthy chaos lord i personally would say no to the free hand on the back of the cape, having said that i think some subtle free hand would look good by using similiar reds and browns it wont stand out much but if you start using bright colours or contrasting ones i dont think ity would look good so my suggestion for the free hand would be red deamonic like faces if anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Thanks Nihm! I have a question for y'all. Should I do the same freehand pattern on both sides of the cape? Watcha think? :D Go for it, for the challenge if nothing else. Just keep it simple. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 Thanks for the input. After painting the outter side of the cape I think I'm starting to agree with Wiplash. A contrasting color may be a bit over the top. If anything I may still toy with the Idea of a black trim freehand at the most. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm059.jpg Thanks again.

Megalodon Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 Sorry for the lack of updates, I've had camera and computer issues. Here's a squad of Plague Marines I'm working on. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm063.jpg I should be able to get some finished pics of the Chaos Lord up in the next few days.

Ferrus Manus Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 More? Man you are a machine. :P Can't say much as they're only basecoated, but if they turn out as good as your other stuff I look forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyzerker Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Plague marines!? Can't win 'em all, I suppose... ;) Just messing with ya there. I'm glad to see that you've gone with the older sculpts, the new metal ones are horrid, IMO. As always, looking forward to seeing them finished!

Megalodon Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 I've stalled on the PM's I'm just not happy with a few things. I need to work out what I want to go with them to fix it. Here is a preview of the more or less finished Lord. I've got a couple of touch-ups I just noticed. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm064.jpg I've decided I'm not thrilled with the red power weapons. I'm debating changing them; I'm just not sure which would look best green, blue or purple. What do y'all think? Here's what I'm gonna start working on tonight. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm066.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm065.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm067.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 Here's an update on the Sorcerer, I'm unsure if his robes are gonna be red to meld into the Soul Reapers theme or blue to show his dedication to Tzeentch. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm068.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyzerker Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Looking beefy. I like the head choice, that was one of my favorites from the older metal chaos termies. Good to see that it's been gifted with a second lifespan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megalodon Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 Sorry for the lack of updates real life has been crazy. B) Here's the finished 2nd Oblit conversion awaiting paint. Damn, I still need to drill out the gun barrels. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm072.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm073.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm074.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm075.jpg I will start painting him soon.

Megalodon Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 I'm now back at my Chaos stuff! I'm currently painting the second Oblit, pics tomorrow. Here is one of two Defilers, I'm working on right now. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/chaos001-1.jpg They are both going to get custom painstakingly converted metal tentacles coming outta the left side of the torso. Remember Krug the "Beheader" Warlord of the Soul Reapers warband? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/csm064.jpg I've been rethinking how to use him. As much as I love the look of a Chaos Lord in Terminator armor, they really aren't that great in game. He has been relegated to story driven play or large points games over 2000 points; where I can field enough Terminators and Landraiders to keep him safe. Then I got to thinking, if I am usually fielding him in large points games why not spend the extra 110 points and use him as a counts as Abaddon. Abaddon is a monster, his stats and special rules are befitting the vision I have for Krug. Lord Krug needs a new shooter! He is moving into the wonderful workd of 'counts as'. So here is the mock up, to represent the Talon of Horus. It still needs greenstuffing, but I think this should work out. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/conversions/chaos004.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/EasyEight/40K/conversions/chaos002.jpg With this simple weapon conversion and swap I should be able to use him as a cheap Chaos Lord or pull off a 'counts as' Abaddon; as there is not description of what the Talon looks like in the codex now. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 use him as Abby, the claw is good enough he's coming along wicked though and i love the oblit so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ragnarok Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I'm liking the the combi bolter conversion. Should be fine as count as depending on how particular your group views CA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
