g-relk Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 how-many-threads-could-a-threadomancer-raise-if-a-threadomancer-could-raise-threads :) anyway, ive recently been inspired to get back into the hobby after a while of playing space hulk. so, without further ado, heres what ive been working on lately: FELLBLADE: More detailed pics: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_61820.jpg http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads...4_3375_2906.jpg http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads...3375_194025.jpg http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads...4_3375_8007.jpg http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_47861.jpg ================================================= Iron wolf based sergeant didnt like the base for the apothecary, so that got changed by putting it onto a new base and giving it fabius biles chirergeon(sp?) backpack More shots: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_85899.jpg http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_16008.jpg my converted telion proxy. this guy was a new obstackle for me, the cloak is 100% GS, something I'd never tried before, but im quite happy with how it turned out overall. Back shot: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_77354.jpg ================================================= LoTD with bolter: back shot: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_43619.jpg LoTD with multi-melta: Back shot: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_93622.jpg LoTD with melta: back shot: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_68109.jpg LoTD with banner and bolter: Back shot: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._3375_69950.jpg ================================================= First half of the 9th vanguard veteran: another vanguard vet with thunder hammer and storm shield: ================================================= so yeah, thats really it for where im at now. not a great deal happening, but once the last 2 vanguards are done im onto rank and file marines, something that should be fun, but im running low on iron hands and rhino crew shoulder pads (though i need the rhino crew pads more than the chapter symbol ones). Im really really pleased with the way the legion of the damned guys have come out thus far. i have another one painted, but ill need to wait for my batteries to charge before i can take some photos, the ones i took came out way too blurry. im going to get the banner bearer, the bolter guy, and possibly the meltagunner undercoated today so ill have some more painted stuff up in the next few days. in the meantime, G-relk out!

Mike the Zealous Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Pretty sick stuff man! Lovin the Fellblade :P What do you think the LoTD squad is gonna be armed with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-relk Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 Pretty sick stuff man! Lovin the Fellblade :P What do you think the LoTD squad is gonna be armed with? basically whats shown in my last post, along with the sergeant and other bolter guy a couple of posts back. its only a six man squad (as six seems to be more than enough to tarpit something or take enough casualties to earn itself back points wise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoby Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Just read through your whole topic, you really have an eye for bit use, I really need to get hold of some of that wire, I've been using brass tubing with florists wire and it's a right pain to cut it to the right size and keep everything straight. Also do you mind if I steal your dread idea on the 5th page (with the lenses), I've got a dread filed down ready to have the mark IV style front but I think your idea looks a lot better for Iron Hands. This topic along with a few others is slowly convincing me that my Iron Hands need more white on them to make them stand out more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Some really awesome stuff there, particularly the Fellblade (one day i'll finish my WB one, alas, that might be one day within the next 20 years :(). Looking forward to seeing more of your work ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to seeing more of your work :P yeah, shes starting to com together, but i need to practice my freehand a bit more so i can get the chapter symbols onto each side of her. also gotta work on the dozer blade a bit more, but i think im going to need more plastic tube first... yours going to be pre or post heresy styled??

The Angelus Sanctus Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Pre Heresy style, but i wanted to make it unique and ornate and mix in some CoD bits, which is why the project will take me 20 years to finish as i procrastinate something fierce...

EDIT: if any of you guys have ideas or anything with regards to appropriate parts and whatnot to use this would be appreciated, as im always looking for bits to make my guys that little bit more unique ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
