darkwrath Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 this is a model for my Master of the Forge on a bike with a conversion beamer (decided not to go with the old space crusade design). According to BlindHamster (creator of an awesome Commander Dante model) there's a guy on this site that has had the same idea but i've not seen it yet. Anyway, crits welcome as usual. http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq132/DarkWrath_photos/masteroftheforge.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbyssKnight Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...5973&st=225 You can see the conversion beamer is attatched to the bike in the first pic. About a third of the way down the page is a finished pic. Yours looks very good, and different from the one shown in the link. Not really the "same idea." I just love to see how different people create things there aren't minis for (He'Stan, conversion beamers, etc). Your's looks ace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warforger Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I like this one better, but I think you should at least put a adeptus mech' shoulder pad from the SM tank sprues. Pose is badass, I like it because Pose>Decorations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE FATED FITH Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 WOW! love it but im not sure there is one but i cannot see some sort of stand support. As macho as space marines are i think that the huge gun may be slightly impractical when zooming round the battlefield :D but dont get me wrong the model is awesome and the gun conversions looks really clean good job ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkwrath Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 Cheers for the comments guys! much appreciated. Warforger - he does indeed have an adeptus mech shoulder pad on ^_^ THE FATED FITH - i agree, it is , ahem....." slightly" impractical :D there's no stand support, but I did consider a large holster kind of arrangement on the back of the bike.

Dinamarth Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I love it, but what is the gun made from? Looks like a Heavy Bolter but I am unsure what else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironblood Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 My god that looks awsome, and so simple at the same time. Now I need to fint a tau battlesuit flamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rindaris Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Working on one of these now myself. Going for a different approach... but I gotta say yours kicks much Xenos arse :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
risK Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Great pose and a conversion. Maybe cover the Heavy Bolter's shell ejector with a techy bit or green stuff, as I don't see the beamer ejecting shells. And the backpack could be a bit more customized for a techmarine. Just my two cents. From what I saw on you're DA test model, I can't wait to see your TM painted. Rock on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asmodeus' Swordhand Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 very well executed conversion. awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starks333 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 mine will be using the MotR jetbike, converting the plasma cannon: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=151906 i like the pose though, exactly what i will be doing with some of my bikers Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage_heathen Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 it looks realy cool, it looks a little to big for a SM to hole up all by himself, but may you could add some sort of mechanical arm off his hackpack like the one on the rocket launchers backpack which would give the weapon extra suport. the pose is realy good, keep it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donkey Kong Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Looks really nice. The Tau flamer never looks like a flamer, surprisingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindhamster Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 finally found this on here! I spent hours yesterday looking to no avail then by accident I dound it today :P looks awsome mate, did you get any painting done on it? I REALLY need to get something done with the marines I've been doing.... mayhaps a painting/converting session tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkwrath Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 i must say it's been awesome getting a load of good comments from everyone, thanks! risK - yeah i think when i remake him later in the year (after i find out how useful he is in battle) i'll add a lot more techmarine stuff to him, for now i think i'll add an exhaust vent or similar onto the shell ejector on the H/bolter (i should have done that before i started painting :wallbash: ) shotsonfire79 - go for it, would love to see what you come up with, your termy with conversion beamer was a good use of bits and looks more like the original design than mine. rindaris - hehehe, playing against necrons soon, built this as my monolith hunter. Would love to see what you come up with for yours. here's an updated pic of him partially paintedhttp://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq132/DarkWrath_photos/MotF.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarInHeaven Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 damn, that pose is realy badass! keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Are you using standard marine legs, biker legs or some mix between the two? Because the pose looks absolutely awesome and I would love to use it on some biker conversions (Most of the poses of my army are kinda static but I have not found a way to do static bikers. Yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmackey Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 my brain was doing summer saults trying to work this out where have i seen it before AGH then i dug out an old old old 2000AD comic and found what i was thinking of http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x125/bigmackey1631/joe.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkwrath Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 Cathar the great - they're just standard biker legs with a bit of repositioning and GS, will use repositioned normal marine legs for the next version as the right leg should be bent up slightly for a more stable firing position. bigmackey - nice! it's been ages since i picked up a 2000AD comic. definitely a badass pose! Here's another update. progressing at the speed of a glacier at present as i've so much other stuff i'm working on. i did however add a cover over the H/bolter casing ejector, it's part of a spare hunter-killer missile i had lying around. http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq132/DarkWrath_photos/MotF3.jpg http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq132/DarkWrath_photos/MotF2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
