Angels_Blade Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I've just been playing with bits and thought i'd make a Company Master for my Steel Scorpions The army is inspired by Ah-Shaulah's Steel Scorpions found Here As a few have said i played around with his back story more than i should i have decided that my army is a company that has been crusading for so long they operate almost indepentently from the main chapter. Hope that sounds better. Anyway thats off track so here he is, He's supposed to be armed with a relic blade, storm shield and plasma pistol http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o138/mustanguk/P7270035.jpg http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o138/mustanguk/P7270036.jpg http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o138/mustanguk/P7270037.jpg http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o138/mustanguk/P7270038.jpg Cheers AB Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143765-steel-scorpions-company-master/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminatorinhell Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 now that is sweet, great conversion without GS ! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143765-steel-scorpions-company-master/#findComment-1665719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heru Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Anyway thats off track so here he is, He's supposed to be armed with a relic blade, storm shield and plasma pistol I just hope he'll actually be able to be equipped with all that when the Codex comes out (ie he might be stuck with just two...). Edit: Actually I'll go ask VS on Warseer if those options work.

Qu1f Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Nice work mate. Where did you get the plume from? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143765-steel-scorpions-company-master/#findComment-1665763 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marek Grimfang Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 If you like romanesque helmets for marines, you'll love the new Sicarius mini. The lumed helmet is separate from the mini. Nice job.

Chaplain Castus Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Great lookin model man! My only quirk with it is his Helm Plume, i dont think it extends quite enough towards the back. It looks odd to me. If you have some GS, why not try tapering it off in a small slope instead of just cut right off.

Heru Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Anyway thats off track so here he is, He's supposed to be armed with a relic blade, storm shield and plasma pistol I just hope he'll actually be able to be equipped with all that when the Codex comes out (ie he might be stuck with just two...). Edit: Actually I'll go ask VS on Warseer if those options work. Ok I talked to VS, and you'll only be able to actually equip him with two of those items at the same time (all three are listed as replacements for his bolt pistol and/or chainsword). Which is a real shame because that's a beautiful looking model. :tu: Edit: You could say the Storm Shield counts as his Iron Halo in some games, and in others the plasma pistol counts as nothing.

Capt. Kenaz Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Wow!!! It just goes to show you the diversity of plain bits and metals and plastic to look awesome when put all together kust right! Great pose and overall look!!! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143765-steel-scorpions-company-master/#findComment-1665933 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkizO Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 The relic Blade's on the wrong side of the marine bro. If he were to draw the blade he would have to discard his shield atm. The Blade should be on the shield's side hip. Thios did strike me at first glance, but overall the model is indeed a fine captain! I really like it! Have a good giggedy, my 2 cents...

Hubernator Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 It's a decent model so far. The head plume is a little big IMHO, and I did notice the guy has a knife right next to his blade :D That's gonna be fun if he draws the knife instead of the blade in battle ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143765-steel-scorpions-company-master/#findComment-1666192 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prtyjedi Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 One of the nicest conversions I've seen. Slightly reminiscient (on a slightly narcissistic note) of a Chaplain I once converted. Like Hubernator said the plume is a bit big, and a little too exactly on top for my tastes. The flag looks great though, I might steal that idea. I look forward to the paint job Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143765-steel-scorpions-company-master/#findComment-1666209 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aioannou Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 where does that amazing plume come from! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143765-steel-scorpions-company-master/#findComment-1666229 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angels_Blade Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Thanks for the comments, I'm well into painting at the mo. To respond to a few... The plume is a dire avenger exarch. The sword is on the wrong side but it needs it there to balance the model but unfortunately your right he would have to drop his shield!. I'm assuming a Space marine Captain would be aware of the difference between a knife and a sword lol Cheers Updates in a few hours !
