jah-joshua Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 hey B&C... i took some new pics of old minis for ebay, and figured i should throw this guy up... i don't see many Dark Apostle conversions kickin' around... i saw this guy in White Dwarf back in '02... made by Matt Hutson, it was such a cool conversion... bein' a GW geek, i had all the parts in my bitz box, so i had to do my own version... the painjob is showin' it's age, but he still stands out as a mini we haven't seen a thousand times before... enjoy: http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/jah-minis/forum%20pics/DarkApostle4.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/jah-minis/forum%20pics/DarkApostle.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/jah-minis/forum%20pics/DarkApostle1.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/jah-minis/forum%20pics/DarkApostle3.jpg http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/jah-minis/forum%20pics/DarkApostle2.jpg thanks for lookin'... cheers jah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Carlin Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 nicely converted and very well painted but i wouldn't be able to tell its a word bearer from a glance, but i do see what you were going for makeing him mostly black like loyalist chaplains, great job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapter Master Dave Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 awesome is an understatement ! :tu: well done may i ask one thing...how did you do the bone it came out great !!!!!!?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Very nice, the only potential downside is the black mace head. Being the same colour as his armour distracts a bit, maybe a dark red would liven it up a little as well as give a nod to the Post Heresy WB colours. Regardless, he's very well painted. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jah-joshua Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 thanks for all the replies... this is a mini that i would definitely like to reprise, and paint to my current standard... one thing i should have done was include the legion logo somewhere... @chapter master d...: the bone is just simple layers... scorched brown bestial brown bleached bone skull white no mixes, no fancy blends... thanks again... cheers jah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jah-joshua Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 thanks man... this guy is up on ebay, and ready to go out the door, so he won't be repainted... actually, i meant that i would like to build a new version... so many cool plastic bitz have come out since '02... there is an old illustration, from the index astartes article, where the dark crozius is two spiked iron circles one inside the other... with the recent banner bitz, and some of the newer chaos marine bitz (like the possessed) i can build my ultimate dark apostle... cheers jah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
