Marshal van Trapp Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 For my chaos army i decided to swap out the khorne lord on steed and make him winged instead (the stat bonuses are nice but he can't be transported and stays normal infantry... stupid slow juggernaut) So here he is in all his winged glory: http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0498.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0499.jpg and a close up on the wings: http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0500.jpg I wanted to make the wings look robotic rather than organic, i think big, leathery bat wings or scaly dragon wings on a model completely sheathed in armor just looks a bit silly (though that is the ways of chaos), i instead wanted to represent his ability to fly before khorne blessed him with a mighty daemon weapon as always C&C are welcome Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/163600-winged-lord-of-khorne/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rindaris Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Well, unfortunately as it stands the model doesn't really feel like a Lord to me.

Marshal van Trapp Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 ok as a note this is VERY WIP any OTHER C&C? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/163600-winged-lord-of-khorne/#findComment-1923389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wokkers Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 i think the wings need a power source between them. perhaps use the chaos backpack with the two sticky-out-vents (very technical i know :)) removed and replaced with the wings. i apologise if that made no sense....

Marshal van Trapp Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 ok i've been playing around with the idea of swapping out the mech wings with feathered wings, i figure if i paint them black then it will look like he's some kind of angel of death. good idea? bad idea? more C&C?

Marshal van Trapp Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 hmm how would i go about making blood stains on the wings? could i like flick it on with a toothbrush (idk what that method is called) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/163600-winged-lord-of-khorne/#findComment-1925352 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal van Trapp Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 sorry for the double post, and bit of threadcomancy, but i've got an update. After trial after trial with the skeletal mech wings i gave up, i had a spare pare of angelic wings (handily attached to a body already) that i decided would look much better and i could deal with, i like the idea of angelic marines and a fallen angel chaos lord is just the peak of my excitment, so without further ado, i bring you, WINGED KHORNE MKII (with weighted companion cube for scale purposes only :blink:): http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0501.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0502.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0503.jpg i am thinking about removing the head entirely and giving him a large face obscuring hood kind of like a ringwraith, more fallen angel like ihmo Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/163600-winged-lord-of-khorne/#findComment-1929025 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal van Trapp Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 ok its update time i gave him a full robe and hood and altered the position of his wings tell me what you think: http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0504.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0505.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/DSCN0506.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/163600-winged-lord-of-khorne/#findComment-1938488 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warmongrel Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I like your new wing position much better, and the GS work to blend their attachment points is very nice. I think he still would benefit from a backpack, perhaps an older edition loyalist pack for its smaller size. I like the hooded look too, but I am not sure how well it fits with the berzerker lord theme. I think this guy's (click) head would be great if you could get it, or maybe even Khârn's head! Plus, I love chain axes (the look anyway, not sure about rules-wise) so I'd recommend one of them. No matter which way you go, the wings already look great and your model will turn out well too. Good Luck! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/163600-winged-lord-of-khorne/#findComment-1939152 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 wow that is a TON better than your first attempt, very cool.

mongrelfish Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 That is one sweet looking model. I've always had a soft spot for ringwraiths and I think combined with the big wings and demon weapon you have a very suitable looking lord model Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/163600-winged-lord-of-khorne/#findComment-1939977 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Deffinitly shaping up. Maybe pin some model chains with skulls hanging on them to make him more khorne-ish.

Sgt. Blank Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 While I agree that the first version wasn't quite Lordly enough, I really like those technological wings you made. You should seriously consider either beefing them and the lord up or using them as a prototype for raptors (if you are using them). I hate to disagree with the other posters, but I think you were definitely on to something with the scratchbuilt wings, as I haven't seen anything like that before.
