Crusader of Dorn Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 Another pic, I couldnt decide what chapter he was from so i pulled out an old DIY idea i had - The Astral Swords http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpbase3.jpg I'm still tidying it up.

Frost Knight Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 brilliant. But i say if you want, give the shoulder pad a wash of purple or blue just to make it stand out from the rest of the black on the model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reyner Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Looks great man, puts my Deathwatch to shame ;) sent a FR for live btw :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader of Dorn Posted August 5, 2008 Author Share Posted August 5, 2008 I think this guy is pretty much done, i've splashed some paint on the base - I'm going for a desert theme i'll add some grit and grass and maybe an abandoned Tau pulse rifle. Plus i've been tidying up the rest. This miniature has evolved over the course of this thread he is now, Brother-Captain Venatus of The Astral Swords http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpbase4.jpg http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpbase7.jpg http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpbase5.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader of Dorn Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 The next guy - http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpf1.jpg http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpf2.jpg He is in a prelim pose and i'll be adding equipment to him aswell. Theres no mistaking what chapter this guy will be from. (I have often wondered just how do you sex up an Ultramarine? The answer of course is - second him to the DeathWatch.) :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuNCHBiZZLe Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Awsome DW(I've always loved the fluff),IMO the flamer guy says sally not smurf but with what you did with the AS you'll prolly prove me wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader of Dorn Posted August 7, 2008 Author Share Posted August 7, 2008 Well the great thing about the DW is that you can use marines from probably 99.9% of chapters and you can model them to eptomise their respective chapters (giving an IF a P/fist for example, etc) or show them in another light to what people are used too. I'm cleaning up the bitz for my third marine, he is going to be armed with another converted bolter and lightning claw. Once thats done i'll start the next round of painting. Thanks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader of Dorn Posted August 7, 2008 Author Share Posted August 7, 2008 Capt. Venatus update - http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpf3.jpg And my third team member - http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpf4.jpg The bolter looks raw here and still needs alot of work before being painted, but have faith and all will turn out well.

Crusader of Dorn Posted August 7, 2008 Author Share Posted August 7, 2008 I've started some work on the Lightning claw - http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh262/Crusader_of_Dorn/wpf6.jpg The blades will be light blue, i think it gos with the the silver.

Reyner Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Lookin good, what chapter is he going to be from? On the subject of lightning claws though: why not try do the claws in a red/orange colour? Far too many are blue IMO :eek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader of Dorn Posted August 8, 2008 Author Share Posted August 8, 2008 Well too much red could clash with the silver and i'm not a fan of orange, purple or green could work but i think that light blue gives a feeling of purity. As for the chapter i could paint him as Raven Guard or maybe go for an obscure chapter like the Imperial Talons/ Brazen Claws or something similar.

Reyner Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 A purple claw would look good, how about making him a Space Wolf? Or is that too generic for a Wolf to be the one with the claws hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader of Dorn Posted August 8, 2008 Author Share Posted August 8, 2008 I've painted few space wolves in my time, i havent given it that much thought. i'll update later cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
