Lestat Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Anyway, almost done with the Sergeant. I repositioned him on his base, and I'm giving him a little surprise. I'll be done within the day! Surprise? Now I'm intrigued.......... Is he going to have a mutation?

MotherFuhrer Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 Surprise? Now I'm intrigued.......... Is he going to have a mutation? Unfortunately not. I was going to, but my Green Stuff skills are still not up to snuff. Don't worry, the surprise will be interesting.

They should give you some inspiration for conversions.

MotherFuhrer Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 Disregard my last few posts. I couldn't get the "surprise" to work. I was gonna' try and figure out a way to make exhaust coming out of the jump pack with cotton balls, but I couldn't do it. I'm more preoccupied with getting the damned Sergeant to glue down to the base. I absolutely hate Assault Marines.

I'm more preoccupied with getting the damned Sergeant to glue down to the base. I absolutely hate Assault Marines. Drill into his foot with a pin-vice and use a paperclip (or similar) to pin him to the base. Also, if you fill the underside of the base with greenstuff and let it harden, it gives you a bigger area to drill into too.

MotherFuhrer Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 What's this? The Sergeant is done! I'm pretty happy with how it came out, especially the free hand chapter symbol. http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/8206/dscf0356jz0.jpg http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/815/dscf0357fs4.jpg http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/2787/dscf0358bm3.jpg http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/5390/dscf0359hu8.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157742-motherfuhrers-soul-drinkers-assault-sergeant-painted/page/2/#findComment-1850087 Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXjOmAmMaXx Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 i have actually done a soul drinkers army. i have some pictures. while the painting is not that good because i just wanted to get the project done it still looks pretty legit. although they are vanilla marines with no mutations etc. i will however, work on that later ^^ here are some photos http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg281/xXjOmAmMaXx/chaos%20space%20marine%20army/DSC00100.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg281/xXjOmAmMaXx/chaos%20space%20marine%20army/DSC00139.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg281/xXjOmAmMaXx/chaos%20space%20marine%20army/DSC00147.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg281/xXjOmAmMaXx/chaos%20space%20marine%20army/DSCF13482.jpg basically how i painted them was: i put on the coat of liche purple and did the details and basically highlighted the model with boltgun metal which looks very nice. adds a bit of shine to the armor as well as some depth Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157742-motherfuhrers-soul-drinkers-assault-sergeant-painted/page/2/#findComment-1850332 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avarris Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Man they look cool. Why do I get the feeling that the Warriors of Mayhem colour scheme was copied from these guys or the other way round, as the only difference is that the trim is silver rather than bone Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157742-motherfuhrers-soul-drinkers-assault-sergeant-painted/page/2/#findComment-1850569 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotherFuhrer Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 Nice job on those Soul Drinkers! Anyway, so far so good. I'm going to start working on the rest of the Assaults sometime soon. Thanks for all the replies!

cathar the great Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 If possible, you should try to change the pose of the Sergeant a bit, it looks like he's falling on the back of his head in the next second.

Chaplin Iktinos Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I too, am working on a soul drinkers army, I've started work on Sarpedon. I'm using a goblin spider body, with the legs clipped off and replaced by hormagaunt claws... except for the bionic one not sure what I'm going to use for that. I had to cut and reposition the abdomen to accommodate the librarian torso. But so far I'm pleased with the progress. Now I just need to get another four claws. I had thought of using She-lob's body but all the ones I've seen doing that ended up looking way too big. What I'm having the most problems with though is trying to figure out what codex to use. Part of me wants to use the SM dex, and give them drop pods, but part of me thinks it'd be easier to use the Chaos dex... Once I get some more of my stuff done, I'll post pics.

Chaplin Iktinos Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Here's a pic of my test mini. The highlights aren't showing as well as I would like. I think I need a better zoom on my camera. But here goes... http://i533.photobucket.com/albums/ee340/ckeifer213/100_2100.jpg This is an un-mutated one but I am working in a good mix of mutations to throw in each unit. I am also working on making a mold for the shoulderpad insignias for both tactical and assault troops as well as the chapter insignia. But I need to get a lot more green stuff to do that. Anyway enjoy.

zxyogi Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 My Lads were originally gonna be called the Soul Drinkers as i was inspired by the books as well!! Changed the name to Sons of Heracles........might change it again as not quite decided yet....after all this time!! ;) In one of the books the shoulder pads were described as bone white but in later books purple...i done my original design bone white which i kept for the Sons of Heracles. Here is a sample of my Boys......
