Slayerthane Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Great! thanks for the tutorials. Your army is going to motivate me to do up some legion of the damned for my DIY Salamanders successor chapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReclusiarch Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 What kind of skeletons did you use for the vindicator siege shield? Tomb kings or Vampire Counts? <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skritz Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 A converted Maugan, now THAT is what I call original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Remiel Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 As a fan and collector of the Legion of the Damned, I must say Bravo! Those are some <_< fine miniatures. Since I am building a Legion army (to be used as "counts as" DIY SMs), I will definitely be (shamelessly and blatantly) stealing some of your ideas for my army (particularly that killer Vindi dozer blade). They will help build on the company and a half of OOP Legionaires I have so I can get to 2 companies. Â PS Your conversion of Maugan is very interesting. I got one as part of an eBay purchase (guy had been planning to conv it to Legion but did not complete it). Yours gives me some good ideas on how to use him with my army.

juckto Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 The skeletons are from Vampire counts. Quite a nice sprue, really. Â I must warn y'all, the Maugan Ra conversion was fairly difficult. His right arm covers over half his chest and is a thick piece of metal to carve off, his left hand presses right up against the shoulder pad, and his legs need a lot of bulking up to look like power armour.

Darth Bob Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Very nice LotD. I love the way you painted the bone. Also, that's a very nice conversion of Maugan Ra. Never thought an Eldar could be made into a Space Marine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOBMAKENZIE Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Very cool been contemplating a LotD army for myself (Though I would be doing something alittle different with it..). ;) :tu: Â Any Plans on expanding the army any more? Which Skeleton box did you use? the Current one? The Snap Fits? The Old one?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiteridder Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Yeah, well, the "tank only carrying a single spare shell, and in a place that blocks the door" never really made sense to me. So, as with all things 40k, I improved on it with something that makes less sense.  The army list was Nurgle. Did pretty well too, got 5th in battle points and average in composition. Missed out on best painted by half a point, btw.  Vindi blade was: get a box of skeletons, cut em up, glue em on, shove GS between them, and paint. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_vindi01.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_vindi02.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_vindi1.jpg  I also want to know which skeleton box you've used. I want to used them for my landraiders and maybe more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Damn, everything looks good. Its great to see another LOTD fan. This thread makes me frustrated that my own LOTD project is coming along so slowly. Keep up the good work and keep posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotsa_terminators Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 wow...just, wow. This army is amazing. And, with your permission, can I steal that vindi blade idea? Just bought a new one to go with my old kitbashed new rhino chassis/old gun one, and that conversion is simply amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juckto Posted October 23, 2009 Author Share Posted October 23, 2009 The new one I believe. The shop keeper recommended it as being new and properly proportioned. Â Also, if anyone does do a Maugan Marine conversion fling me a PM. I'll be interested in seeing what you come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Crimson Cartel Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Good God! That Vindy, as everyone else has said, is great. And surprisingly, it seems like a fairly simple conversion ( Tho time consuming no doubt.) Loving the Ra conversion, never thought i'd see an eldar xeno turned marine commander! :devil: Nice work  -CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juckto Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 Well, I suppose I should update this thread now that I've finished the next "Expansion" to the army.  Obliterators:  http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_tech10.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_tech11.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_tech12.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_tech21.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_tech22.png http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_P1020358.jpg  http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_atech4.png The servitors represent the 2nd wound that Oblits have, and also handily carry the heavy weapon options that Oblits have in-game.  Another unit of marines:  http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_P1020353.jpg Not a particulary well-lit photo.  Defiler:  http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_defiler29.jpghttp://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_defiler30.jpghttp://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/LotD/th_defiler31.jpg  I rushed through painting the unit of marines, and finishing/painting the defiler in order to get it completed for a tournament. Things I need to go back to: Smoothing the Defiler's shoulder pads, repainting the flames, highlighting the metallics, adding studs to the trim, and completely redoing that giant scythe blade. I also need to find a new ccw for the third techmarine, because I ripped that scythe off of him and gave it to my Lord.  My next expansion, if I ever do it, will involve scratch built "Drop Pods" (giant bony fingers erupting out of the ground) and land speeders. Maybe a Land Raider if I go Blood Angels. Yeah, I'll be moving away from Chaos :P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiny sam Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 OMG! this thing seems so huge! (can you pose it next to a marines and a tank to for size comparaison?) Â Nice job on the techmarines they are realy fearsome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Damned Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Love the new additions. I particually like your spin on the oblits. Â Hopefully we will continue to see more out of these guys.

juckto Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 Whoops, forgot the army shot.  http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a329/juckto/Wh40k/Other/P1020373.jpg  It comes just under the chin of a Warhound, btw. Which is about right for the epic model it is based on.  My next expansion, if I ever do it, will involve scratch built "Drop Pods" (giant bony fingers erupting out of the ground) and land speeders. Maybe a Land Raider if I go Blood Angels. Yeah, I'll be moving away from Chaos :(. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
