Dark Disciple Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Ok until the Call of Choas begins heres take two of my Word Bearers motivational Diary. So to get things started here are a few WIP the leader of my Crusade Eskara Tannis, former enquerry to the Prophet and fallen Apostle. http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/DSC01984.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/DSC01985.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/DSC01991.jpg I'm thinking of swaping out his power sword for the flaming one from the fantasy Wizard box. I've began painting 5 chosen, forgot to take pics before I primed them though ^_^ I've also began work on my first Chaos Space Marine squad so hopefully I'll get the camera working again :) As always I'd love to hear what you guys think.

Seres Blackthorn Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Beautiful mini. He just screams Chaos Lord from his every pore. Sword wise I think it's good the way it is but meh, its preference.

Dark Disciple Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 IN the name of Lorgar I ressurect this thread. Thanks for the kind words guys. I'm sorry for the lack of updates but I have been busy ;) I've changed the sword on Brother Eskara as well as his shoulderpad. Hes the first mini I've painted since restarting the hobby so I'm pretty pleased with how he's come out. I do think I'll keep doing touch ups on him for as long as I use the army though :) http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0395.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0397.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0398.jpg Also I couldnt resist getting the paint out and so here are some WIP of the Chosen http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0402.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0406.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0407.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0409.jpg Oh and finally a small sneak peak of the unbound defiler! http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0411.jpg Building has begun the first of squad of Warrior Brothers, hopefully I'll get some pics up in the next few days and I wont use the flash ;) Disciple Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159262-dark-crusaders/#findComment-1874003 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazakelXIII Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 As has been said, that is one scary Lord conversion. :) I think maybe his torso could use a wash or a highlight, though - the paint just looks a little flat there. I love all the fire. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159262-dark-crusaders/#findComment-1874023 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother__Paulius Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Very nice flame effects. Especially like the flaming sword on the Lord. These will look great when they're done.

Dark Disciple Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 Thanks for the kind words brothers. I really wansnt too sure if the flames and chains thing was too cliche. RazakelXIII: Comming from you calling my Lord scary is a big compliment. :D Looking at the picture I think your right about the chest needing some more depth. Brother__Paulius: Thanks, I can give you the recipe for the flames if your interested? Conor The Great: I know what you mean, I bought the Empire Wizard kit just for that sword :) I also just realised I didnt post any pics of the fifth chosen. Hopefully I can persuade my girlfriend to loan me her camera so I can get him up along with the first squad which has been built. I'm hoping to get them done in a week or two so I can start on a second squad and play some games with them.

Dark Disciple Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 Again I am offshore brothers this time however, I do have updates and so as not to risk the Basillica of Torments for constant Threadomancy I'll put stagger them over a few days :P Since the last update I've been sketching a bit, the first squad of Warrior Brothers is ready to be primed and I've begun work on a summoned greater daemon along with a squad of raptors. The Raptors however, are proving to be compilcated as I cant decide wether to use Possessed Wings or jump packs, any thoughts? Disciples Sketch Book http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0412.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0440.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0428-1.jpg These arent works of art but they do the job B) The first is a sketch of a Warrior Brother while the second is my concept for the Chaos Lord Eskara Tannis. Finally an update on the Defiler http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0422.jpg As always comments, critisims and adivce are most welcome -_- Edit - Actually C&C is craved.

Dark Disciple Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 Ok a few more bits and peices to help preserve whats left of my sanity :teehee: Heres a PIP of the fifth chosen http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0409-1.jpg Disciples Sketch Book http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0412.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0438.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0434.jpg once again these are not works of art, the first is a just a random sketch for one of the chosen. The second is the emblem of the Crusade, the Lacros Sactum with a maltese cross (I was watching Kingdom of Heaven when I drew this :P ) As always feel free to comment and criticise.

Drac0 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 The minis look great, but you might want to put that light further back as it is too bright and in some pics you can't see all of the details of the painting. Other than that great work. Keep 'em coming. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159262-dark-crusaders/#findComment-1887270 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Disciple Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 Cheers guys. I'm actually the slowest painter in the world. So this will be my last update for a while, untill I get back onshore. So heres the first of the raptors (The Champion just didnt want to get his picture taken ;) ) http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0453.jpg Next up are some of the first unit of Warrior Borthers. Begining with the Aspiring Champ, Plasma gunner, standard bearer and regular marine (so far as Word Bearers are regular :P ) http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0416.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0419.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0421.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0427.jpg Discipe's Sketch Book http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0412.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0431.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/IMG_0435.jpg And the final pics from my Sketch book.

Dark Disciple Posted April 30, 2009 Author Share Posted April 30, 2009 By Lorgar its been a while since I updated this. Real life prevails again unfortunatly. Well Xeno I'll just have to get myself in gear and finish converting you. If your tempted by Word Bearers check out Kikkala, RazakelXIII, The Angelus Sanctus and Ladvic's works, Lorgar knows they inspire me. Well for this threadomancy I'm gonna skimp and post my Call of Chaos Pics for comments. I just love the Blood Crusher models and I just wanted one so I figure I'll use it a Greater Summon :) http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/P1000459.jpg This is still very WIP but I'm not sure how much steel I should use compared to Brass what do you guys think? Oh and here are some WIPs of the Raptor Squad, I'll hopefully have some sketched of their jetpacks soon :lol: (usual Caveats :o ) http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j52/Nameless_Messiah/Chaos/Disciple/P1000460.jpg Disciple Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159262-dark-crusaders/#findComment-1972785 Share on other sites More sharing options...
