blackblade68 Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hello! I've bought some Chaos Marines (soon to be more) and I need to do some conversions/assembling/painting/anything else I missed... I was hoping to do a Iron Warriors/Khorne theme I think....Maybe Slannesh....so many options......Anyway, start giving me some ideas!! And if you couldn't tell this is WIP in its most truest form. :verymad: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Malachi Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 And if you couldn't tell this is WIP in its most truest form. :verymad: Not quite, you need to start for it to WIP :D Khorne and Slaanesh are a good combo, they let you make the cheesiest lists available ^_^ (nothing to do with the models I know but there really isn't a lot to say on them at this stage) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/#findComment-1901913 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Disciple Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 hmm Khorne and Iron Warriors. . . . that works quite well as Berserkers are great for securing breaches :verymad: This can be as simple as altering the colour scheme (f you dont want red minis) to mixing in bionic enhancments and other Iron Warrior visuals. There are also the newer renegades to conciser, some of which are dedicated to Khorne others Slaanesh, some with no background. One I fancey when the new Space Wolves come out are Skyrars Dark Wolves. So much as to say you could base you army around a Lord of a single Legion with other Warbands in support. This also helps alleviate the monotomey of painting the same colours over and over. The Thriteenth Black crusade or even Medusa V *shudders* are examples of this. Hope this helps and good luck. May the Gods smile on you Brother. Â Disciple Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/#findComment-1901926 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackblade68 Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 Terminator Lord Complete! What do you think of the pose? I was hoping to make him look like he was getting ready to jump off the base....but didn't quite work out that well. Oh well, I still like the pose! I'm not going to paint him till I get some Chaos Marines going and painted. C&C appreciated!

Captain Malachi Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Sweet, every time I see that model I ask myself why I haven't brought one yet, need to keep reminding myself I don't play chaos B) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/#findComment-1906882 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alys Dwr Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Sweet, every time I see that model I ask myself why I haven't brought one yet, need to keep reminding myself I don't play chaos :P Same here! Â blackblade68, i love the double row of trophy spikes. If you put a guardsman model in front of your lord it would definately look like he was about to take the pain. With his arms swept back like that he is remeniscent of a screaming daemon prince; a nice pose but i do think it looks better from the back than front.

Hubernator Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Well that is a pretty nice Lord. Good pose and of course the trinkets :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/#findComment-1907434 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empty Bolter Clip Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I agree, the double racks look impressive! I'd also look into the Word Bearers if you have not already done so... something about the helmet and the heavy ornamentation just seems like it would fit in nicely with your lord.

My very first Chaos Rhino!! Whaddya think of the front dozer?? Yeah, it's sweet. I'm thinkin of going Khorne. With some heavy trophies. C&C !

BrotherDamascus Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 some great poses there, the rhino looks awesome - but the Lord takes first place - his pose looks like an evil advancing/leaping pose, well achieved :D Â i look forward to seeing them painted :( Â <<Damascus>> Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/#findComment-1911127 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude it looks freakin sweet! But you turret guy, well you're supposed to put the legs on first then the turret ring then attach the top half of his body. Apart from that it looks freakin BRUTAL!

fearlessgod Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Great stuff! IMHO, that's how Chaos Marines should look. Â ~fearlessgod~ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/#findComment-1911370 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackblade68 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 I wanted him to look like he was standing up shooting down on an enemy that was really close...either that or he was burning off a body that was stuck on the spikes :D. That's what I thought Chaos should look like; lots of blood and lots of spikes. Blood for the Blood GOD!! Skulls for the Skull Throne!

blackblade68 Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 Group shot of the 2nd squad. Working on getting some dark brown/dark red paints. Then I'll test paint one and see if I/you like it. Thanks! C&C appreciated as always!

blackblade68 Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 Well, I had a tribute to firestorm40k in the form of a Chaos Marine. Now a tribute to kikkala in the form of painting! The difference is that I wanted something a little darker, more....dirtier? Dirty Blood that is. So I looked at his tutorial and sort of followed his guide. I did 2 undercoats of black, then went to a burnt umber, then to a mix of red/black, then to a mix of red/brown. That's where i'm at right now. I think i'm going to do a lighter red then I'm done with the main portion. Next it's off to the detail work. More pics will follow. C&C appreciated. Couldn't deceide which pic was better, for some reason my camera didn't want to cooperate...

FishSpit Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I'm loving the excessive amount of spikes! Some of the blades ARE kinda random though...but it's a choas army, you don't need explantions. Â One thing that bugs me though is that the havoc launcher on the rhino is mounted such that it cannot fire without hitting a trophey rack or the overenthusiastic gunner. It looks like it has a small path between gunner on the left and spikes on the right, but unless you are shooting at aircraft the havoc launcher would be useless.

blackblade68 Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 I can see what you're saying, but then there is a flame thrower on it as well. Besides some Khornate warriors could care less about hitting their own. Plus he's super strong so he can break them if he really wants ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/#findComment-1925098 Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishSpit Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Hm... maybe model a few blasted out sections in the spike fence representing just that, they don't care if they hit the edges much.

blackblade68 Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 So I've done the red highlights, and am now starting on the bronzy color (Khorne said so). But I'm not sure if I like it. I couldn't find a bronze so I mixed up some gold and raw sienna. (I don't use GW paints, they're too costly.) Let me know what you think. C&C as usual! EDIT: I know I need to touch up a few things. I was just getting it ready to show. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/161906-blood-guard/#findComment-1941829 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Really too bad they took away the "spiky bits" upgrade for chaos figures (or all the cool upgrades for that matter, grumble grumble), your lord would be a perfect canidate.

blackblade68 Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 I was getting ready to paint the eyes, when I couldn't deceide which color to use. I was thinking silver, but then it would clash with the bronze color. Need some help!
