AlexCrute Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 Terminators at about 70% done. Now my army will be tough and mean!

AlexCrute Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 My chaplain needs to be more dangerous, so: And if Captain Elias Grimm can be Sicarius and Khan, why not also Vulcan? Sergeant Rann lost his powerfist in an accident, and now has some el-cheapo bionics to console him.

shaw3029 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Fantastic looking Imperial Fists. A really nice bright yellow you have. I like the Ragnar conversion the legs really work well. Â Thanks.

MalevolentMc Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Wow, your yellow is stupid nice. Very awesome! Â 1 question, what's with those Tan Marines in the pics with the Dread?

AlexCrute Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 That'd be peachpuke. 4 parts white to one part Fiery Orange. It's my basecoat before yellow ink. Â Thanks for posting.

AlexCrute Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 I think modelling on the Gauntlet of the Forge Flamer of Antique Awesomeness is ready for paint: Landraider Pastel Doom awaits further paint: Now I'm just showing off. Cassius stand-in: Librarian Converted-for-the-sake-of-it: There are Masters of the Chapter in my gallery too....

AlexCrute Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 Update: Landraider Pastel Doom is pastel no more, all yellowed now. On to brown ink next then chainmail and so on and so forth. More fun with Kilgore: Right fist is yellowed now, prompting more thoughts of repainting the rest of Kilgore's armour. Golgesh and his Throne of Shame complete with scowling cherubs and Insolent Cryer of Ignominy is basically in his final form. I think his head will nestle down in the gorget snugly when I'm done, but greenstuff is still soft in this picture. Alternate weapon loadout - for when Kilgore is sick of showing Calgar how it's done. And cos I just cannot leave magnets alone. The Throne of Shame looks a bit like a toilet doesn't it? I think I'm actually OK with that.... ...but Golgesh isn't :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145455-additionsalterations-imperial-fists/page/5/#findComment-2075278 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted December 25, 2009 Author Share Posted December 25, 2009 Next in line for paint - Lysander's command squad: Champion detail: No Blood Angels here. Standard detail: Sword on the right for the Vanguard (Sigismund was a sword kinda guy, "Sigismund, you are my strong right arm" and all that), bolter on the left for the Sternguard. Apothecary detail: Why does he have a servo-arm you ask? Well have you ever performed surgery on a terminator? You need a servo-arm, it's that simple. I suppose I should paint up Lysander at the same time *sigh* Oh, and here's a surprise: What would anybody want with a pair of Cassii? Why, to cut them up of course!

AlexCrute Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share Posted December 30, 2009 Well I've had a productive morning. I now have a: Returned Deathwatch Captain (Vulkan stand-in): Master of the Forge conversion-beamer-biker: And I promised you things about Cassius didn't I? Hey Cassius! Feel pain much? Assault Captain (Biker Khan stand-in): And still 2 more weeks of holidays to go!

commander alexander Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 These are some really sweet marines, and honestly the only IF I've ever liked ;). And is that some old techmarine on the conversion beamer bike? if so do ya have a link to were you got it? :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145455-additionsalterations-imperial-fists/page/5/#findComment-2229532 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share Posted December 30, 2009 I got that techmarine second hand some time ago, and have progressively removed his limbs over those years in several abortive conversion projects (prompted by new codices). It's an old Jes goodwin sculpt, one of two I believe.

WAR Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 You are correct that is a 2nd edition techmarine. Great stuff, I like your Imperial Fists so amazing.

hazardousZERO Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 wow I love the detail you went into making and painting every model great job. I like your idea of having a "stand in" for every special character I was planning on doing the same with my Iron Hands army, they just wont be as good.

Marshal Rohr Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Awesome Khan conversion! Â How did you get the torso off? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145455-additionsalterations-imperial-fists/page/5/#findComment-2230103 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share Posted December 30, 2009 On Khan I hacked the extremeties off using a fine saw, then carefully cored him with a powerdrill, using a small bit to make a guide hole. Then, using a larger bit (that happens to be the same diameter as a SM hip joint) I bored in so he had a hip socket, fortunately the cassius model has lots of belt-mounted detail so the join is well covered. Â His head was sawed off flat with the gorget, then a 5.5mm drillbit was used to hollow the gorget out. Â I should point out that a powerdrill is pretty dangerous. A cordless drill would have been safer, but still not something for kids to try at home. I am not responsible for holes in your hands, kids!

AlexCrute Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 The biker captain? His sword handle is Cassius' crozius, and the blade is from the metal biker sergeant model (still available I think). I just made a gentle bend in the blade, all the better to cut necks with.
