Power Hungry Monkey Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Very very nice army. Don't think I've ever seen a Silver Skulls army done up. You've made the Black Reach marines look really nice with just a few added skulls and I'm loving the face paint on the sergeants and stuff. Excellent work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAR Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 Thanks much guys. I realize Silver Skulls tend to be viewed as one of those "off the beaten path" chapters, but the more I read about their fluff and see some of their models painted the more I really got to liking them. For a vanilla chapter they have quite a bit of character and background. I mean seriously, they have been around since the RT era and I am really enjoying getting into the conversion aspect to try and build out their fluff as headhunters. I think adding skulls and trophys gives them a look all their own. And you can never have too many skulls and spiky bits! :rolleyes: Anyhoo, I hope to have more done here shortly.

GAR Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 Howdy Long time no update, but I make a little progress at a time. Up for review is my still work in progress Chapter Master or Company Captain. This is my counts as Pedro Cantor model. I did a little bit of converting to get him to fit in with the rest of my army. I hope you like. CNC always welcome.

lord gunthar Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I really like your kantor model, just one thing it looks like the paint has chipped off the spikes on his backpack. Maybe varnish it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavier Targhost Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Have to ask about that head on your sweet and cool Kantor ? Is that head cut lose from the LoD sgt? or is it lose to begin with as i have seen like 2 or 3 of them now ? Bloody darn curious.... ;) looks very nice though mate :P some more decoration maby on the fist ? and realy like his left shoulder guard ;) Cheers mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAR Posted September 28, 2010 Author Share Posted September 28, 2010 Thanks. This model is still a work in progress. The trophy rack ( spikes) were just repaired as one of them broke off. :( The head is cut from a chaplin model. I think it is a stock model part as it is very similar to the LotD sgt. There is still a good deal left to do with him, but so far I am pretty happy with the way it is progressing. Glad you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Perdo Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Looking good. Haven't seen you about in ages. Odd that you have come back to Silver Skulls just as I have re-started with a test mini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother_Fatiswon Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 found your tread yesterday, due to your lastest post. great work all around, i liked how about mid stream, (just before your terminators) you started using more black in the torso.. while not verbatum GW/color blah blah, added a degree of break up that i think adds massively to the depth of your model's. idea for you... ever think about doing a fresh head string? kinda like how you put fish on a line, you could model a Chain being dragged long the ground with "Fresh" Human chaos cultist heads attached or tied... or you could make a christmas model with your SilverSkulled santa and his Big bag of severed heads... ;) i know, i need help good work man, hope you're having fun with it!

GAR Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 @brother Fatiswon Fishline for trophies, Well to be honest there really isn't enough room on the individual figure bases to fit it in without looking awkward. However, I have added a number of those on the vehicles I am working on. Kinda string em up for all to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natanael Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Read all 4 pages just now, and at first I was like "Naah, it's not that cool" but somehow I lokked at page 2, and then when the blue came, as well as the squad markings, I was hooked. Very nice army, and it seems fairly easy/quick to paint. - Natanael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SickSix Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Necro alert! I just have to say I really like your work! Your work is definitely going to be an inspiration for my own Silver Skull army. Just an awesome looking bunch of minis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
