juckto Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Extreme makeover: Xenos edition http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/lord01.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/lord02.pnghttp://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/lord03.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/lord04.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/lord05.png What? :rolleyes: Were you thinking I'd post something against the rules? Perish the thought! Anyway, sorry about the poor quality pics. My original camera died so I'm stuck with my flatmate's "point and shoot". But hopefully you can get a good geezer at it. Any questions about my painting methods can be answered here. Current progress on the rest of my LotD can be seen here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigismund Himself Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 The most inspired conversion I have seen recently :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 that is a sensational conversion!!! where is the bolt pistol from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blood_raven_240 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I agree, awesome conversion! Would do well as a Chaplain, or just as LoTD. The Chaplain: It looks like a normal Space Marine Bolt Pistol with a Heavy Bolter Ammo Feed worked in. That's my guess anyway ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyzerker Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Very sweet conversion work! Now I know what to do with that extra Maugen Ra I have that's missing his Maugetar! The BP looks like it came from one of the chaos sorcerers, judging from the horned skull on the back end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juckto Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 Well Sons of Horus, it sure is a pity that you're posting in a thread about LEGION OF the damned. Based on feedback in another forum I've swapped the pistol for a combi-melta, so that the "beefy ammo feed" matches a "beefy gun". As I said there though: Although it fits the ammo feed better, I'm not sure. I don't think it really works with the rest of the model's pose, especially the sword. It raises the "bulk" of the model up too high, and it even kind of looks like he is about to tap the weapon with the tip of his sword (although the photos don't really show that). http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/melta1-1.pnghttp://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/lord03.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/melta2-1.pnghttp://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/lord02.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/melta3-1.png oh yeah. ps: The lord's name is Markoii. A dozen cyber cookies to whoever gets the reference.

The_Chaplain Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 now what bolter bit is that from? that's quite lovely. the bulkier weapon was definently the right choice I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wokkers Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 now what bolter bit is that from? that's quite lovely. unless i am mistaken, that is one of the old metal bolters that cam with the orginal LOTD models. this is a great use of Maugan Ra. i always thought he would make a good looking LOTD commander and this just proves it. well done mate B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bztn Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 good job! he deserves a 40mm base :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I AM THE AWESOME Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 First: Inspired, very well-painted, and would love to have him in my army. Second: Hmm, I'm split. The ammo feed doesn't look entirely right with the bolt pistol, but the natural pose of the model also makes the combi-weapon seem unnatural. I know this is asking much, but have you thought about a storm bolter? Third: I'm... thinking about the name... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epic Thoughts Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 While I can only heap more praise on your terrific job, I have to say; that cut down bolter/combi-melta is awesome looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 of course :jaw: i meant i love LEGION of the damned sorry bout that. i just haven't heard much of them in a while. now i feel silly :jaw: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venter Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 where is the bolt pistol from? It was from an old Chaos Sorcerer, anyway ;). Very nice conversion and painting, congrats! But i preferred the bolt pistol ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juckto Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 A friend of mine at the club last night had a very good suggestion, which I have now incorporated. I'm thinking it looks quite good. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/melta21.pnghttp://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/melta22.pnghttp://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/melta23.png Also, I've solved my "pistol or combi-melta" dilemma. Magnets! http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/melta24.png 2nd hint on the name: Think TV series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
