Jonas Stromclaw Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Excellent! I especially like the axe. Now all it needs is a nice big wolf pest and a paint job. Whats his name?

nurglespuss Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 hi there :D Cheers! His name is Svarr Skjold and he was assigned by Gunnar Red Moon to accompany his Long fang squads, to record their great exploits! His honour brother Bran Angelsdoom leads the army, atop his Calabanite Lion And Svarr is also monitoring the mental state of Darsil Redwolf, who was sole survivor of the Bhellephon Treachery, forbidden from taken the mantle of the lonewolf, as Gunnar's company has already taken heavy casualties this past campaign... Thanks again! @ Frontline989: thanks!

Well finished basecoating/weathering the long fangs armour, ita 1.16 and I gotta be up at 7.30, do i do the green stuffing, well maybe just for a bit :unsure: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185249-wip-rune-priest-in-terminator-armour/#findComment-2190348 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhorse47 Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Excellent work so far, I really like the impression that has resulted from the head swap.

AdeptusDavidus Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 While the new pose is kind of static, it's also really ... imposing? intimidating? Very impressive, and it's always nice to see another modeller go balls-out with a dremel and a razor saw to tweak a nice metal model into a nicer one-of-a-kind model. Makes me feel less crazy for hacking up my Sternguard minis. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185249-wip-rune-priest-in-terminator-armour/#findComment-2190438 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizara Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Awesome conversion, makes me want to get one and hack it up too. My only real gripe tho is the powerfist arm you used, you can tell its an older model simply by how small the shoulder pad looks. Especially since his other shoulder pad looks so massive. SO i guess my only real suggestion is, file down the other shoulder pad, and attach one of the new plastic termi shoulder pads to it to add some needed bulk on his left side. Otherwise its a perfect conversion(minus the finished pelt of course) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185249-wip-rune-priest-in-terminator-armour/#findComment-2190487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglespuss Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Cheers all! @ Midnight Angel: your right it is quite different... I literally have no terminator parts spare :lol: so maybe next time... I was going to paint up the powerfist arm, as a bionic arm, perhaps have his real arm ripped off by warp daemons (who he then proceded to throttle with one hand etc. ;) Thanks again all!

hendrik Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 i like the mini although his left shoulderpad kinda ruins it for me, it's way too small in my opinion=/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185249-wip-rune-priest-in-terminator-armour/#findComment-2190640 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglespuss Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 How about if I modelled a wolfs head, similar to ragnars shoulder pad on there? that migh 'bulk it out' slightly?

Grey Mage Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 If your Green-stuff-fu is good, just take it off, and thicken it. Its plenty tall, it just needs depth and maybe a little width.

nurglespuss Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Hmmmm could do, only problem would be removing it! the glue I use is V V strong, and the ammo belt is also stuck in place.... I shall contemplate Thanks!! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185249-wip-rune-priest-in-terminator-armour/#findComment-2190683 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinkenheim Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 looking very nice. you could disguise the pad by adding either a small fur pelt hanging from it or by positioning your wolf pelt so that the head is rested on the pad with an arm either side and then going down the back at an angle (almost mirroring how the tabbard goes at the front). or maybe just add alot of charms and teeth to it...

Dark Bjoern Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Very nice. I love the Libby model. You have done a really good job so far. I agree about the old shoulder pad. But i´m sure you will find a way. Can´t wait to see him done.
