aNex88 Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I'm doing a commission for a buddy of mine. He plays Word Bearers but his skills in conversions aren't so great. Here's what I have so far. Still rummaging through my bits box to see what his left arm will be. I'm also going to test fit the cape from the Khorne Lord to see if it works out.

LuNCHBiZZLe Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Awsome,I love character models done completly out of bitz boxes.If you can find a pointy arm this model would look realy good with one or a bolter/pistol of some sort.

cathar the great Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I second the pointing arm. Always adds a lot of character to a... character ^^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166879-wip-dark-apostle/#findComment-1965741 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavier Targhost Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Awsome and nicely made character there mate :huh: humm not shure about the pointing arm though.. but for some reason id like to see a Chaos knight shield on him... sadly there isent anything more then vissual effekt in that.. but could look cool with the right one.. there are a few afterall in that box like with the scrools or with a demonic head.. ? ;) or ill do one formyself and inspred by yours :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166879-wip-dark-apostle/#findComment-1965767 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester_prince Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 how about instead of pointing you flip it over at the wrist and bend the finger up slightly so it looks asif hes beckoning someone.

The Angelus Sanctus Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 That is one very impressive Dark Apostle! An excellent use of bits and simple conversion work :) Have to admit the past few months have been looking upon all WB Dark Apostles very favourably, as there have been several characterful DAs being generated.

Dark Disciple Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 oooh I like that :) I may have to steal the Bloodletter shoulder pad idea. I cant wait to see this guy finished. Keep up the good work, your friends lucky! Disicple Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166879-wip-dark-apostle/#findComment-1965895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kable Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 That conversion is tempting me to collect Word Bearers. Awesome stuff aNex88. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166879-wip-dark-apostle/#findComment-1965960 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 That conversion is tempting me to collect Word Bearers. Awesome stuff aNex88. Avoid looking at Kikkala's stuff then. If this is tempting you to start up WB, Kik's stuff will have you pumping out WB minis within a few minutes ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166879-wip-dark-apostle/#findComment-1965967 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aNex88 Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 Right now, the only trouble I've run into is finding a left arm that's as beefy as his right arm. The chaos knight right arm I used is quite bigger than the normal CSM arm. I've been looking into the chaos terminator range to see what I can use out of it. There IS that claw-like arm from the possessed sprue I was eye-ing but I don't know how mutated my buddy wants his apostle to be. I'll ask him/show him in the days to come and see where I take it from there. Thanks for all the positive comments <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/166879-wip-dark-apostle/#findComment-1966584 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazakelXIII Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 That is an awesome Apostle conversion right there - I especially like his shoulderpad. It's great to see so many new Word Bearer armies popping up recently. <_< You do Lorgar proud, Brother.
