Corver Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 My local store owner gave me 2 of the the new plastic SW sprues ;) But i have to paint them in 2 weeks :) so here is SW braveheart and i'll keep you updated. The sprues are awsome by the way and the codex rocks. 10/10 for the sprue it would be 9/10 due to a few bad heads but because there are so many heads it doesnt matter that some of them look dodgy. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v130/Corver/DSCF7062.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178271-painting-challange-10-new-plastic-sw-in-2-weeks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't too sure of that power sword when I saw it on sprue but it actually looks really cool. And I guess it's going to be a lot of shoulder pad repainting for me as I add guys without helmets to each of my packs, even if I'm not confident in painting faces. They're too good to pass up Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178271-painting-challange-10-new-plastic-sw-in-2-weeks/#findComment-2107711 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corver Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 My only gripe with the sprue is the plasma gun has both hands moulded on, and now Melta or flamer. not a problem for a long time SW player like me but seeing as your GH get a free flamer it seemed odd not to have a cool wolf headed one on the sprue. More pics to follow at the weekend when i plan to undercoat the first 5.

MaveriK Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 beautiful piece, did the bolt pistol.. or should I say, do the bolt pistols and bolters have the holes pre-drilled on the sprue? or did you do that yourself with a dremel?

Lord Ragnarok Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 The sales/catalogue info which is posted in the rumor thread shows that GW expects additional sales from other existing sprues, so they'll fully expect us to splash cash everywhere. I am suitably green with envy corver. Thanks for sharing. I like that power sword. Love the head too. Not too much longer.

Corver Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 I drilled the Barrel out. A few of the new heads are copies of the old metal ones. There is a plastic version of the Wolf helmeted Capt.

I am suitably green with envy corver. Thanks for sharing. I like that power sword. Love the head too. Not too much longer. Well it makes sense that they created all those bits with only ten sets of legs. It makes lots of sense because it means you will have bits left over for the Long Fangs and so on. It's a tad of a shame about the special weapons but hey with the work on those kits I don't care too much.

Nadir Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Those plaits looks like the ones Night Elves from World of Warcraft have But still I just love the whole barbaric/heroic look.

Skirnir Ragefang Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 FREEDOM!!!! Looks nice. I had some doubts about that sword, but you have sufficiently dispelled them. I don't like the head that much, luckily there are enough heads in there to choose from Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178271-painting-challange-10-new-plastic-sw-in-2-weeks/#findComment-2107859 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ragnarok Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I'd love to see you use the captain wolf head. I'm skeptical how it will look, but I'd love to be surprised.

Mr. Danvers Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I hate you man, so hate you! :tu: I was finding it hard to not charge out of my local store today with the book and sprues, howling as I went.... At least I've got our Games night on Tuesday to sit in the store for a few hours reading the book to look forward to. After having a look at both the sprues and book today, I can safely say I'm a very happy Wolf.

That's true. Being the only SW player in the store would give me away a bit. That new pics great. Just a shame there was no running legs on the sprue to go with that axe.

Nadir Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 The guy with the big hammer has got the head of an old WG. Slightly changed. It would be perfect on one of mine Long Fangs. O, and i hate you. Now I have to buy a last 2 boxes of regulars, and 2 of termites.
