Ufthak Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Very nice :sweat: Good job with the Green Stuff! What colour scheme'll he have? Dark red and silver or the old stone grey?

Ferrus Manus Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 Thanks guys, he'll be in the stone grey of the loyal Word Bearers. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191104-my-word-bearers/#findComment-2267895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ufthak Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Cool :) Fluff says that the Word Bearers had all sorts of litanies, prayers and stuff tattoed all over their skin and etched all over their armour, plus often carried cloth or paper inscribed with all sorts of stuff pinned to their armour. Will you be doing that, and if yes, then how? Think it's great someone's doing the Word Bearers in their old grey armour, don't see many of those around...

Ferrus Manus Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 I shall. Tattoos and script will just be watered down Chaos Black and a very steady hand.

Ferrus Manus Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 Done :( Unfortunately you can't really see the gold script. C&C welcome Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191104-my-word-bearers/#findComment-2290243 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Juan Juarez Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 The following should be taken with a pinch of salt, given my non-existent painting abilities. Two things... The head seams a bit too... World Eater... To me. The Chapter Symbol.. It, um, looks like a hand. Other than that.. Good looking mini, liking the overall flavour!

Ferrus Manus Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 1- I can see what you mean, I may add some scripting on the head to try and change that. 2- Yeap, that's just poor GSing on my part ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191104-my-word-bearers/#findComment-2290254 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Juan Juarez Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 2- Yeap, that's just poor GSing on my part ;) First I thought.. Wow, a hand.. It looks cool! Then I did a double-take and thought I don't think the Bearers had hands.. <-- Which sounds wrong, but you get the idea!

apologist Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Great Crusade-era Word Bearers were organised into separate chapters*, which each had a separate icon. Why not call your guys the 'Flaming Hand' chapter? :huh: *Explained in more detail in Battle for the Abyss.

On a side note, I've been making that face quite often lately!

Ferrus Manus Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 Another WB, painted with a different method this time, which do you guys prefer? http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff265/Ferrus_Manus/Warhammer%2040k/Pre-Heresy/Word%20Bearers/DSCF0028-1-1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191104-my-word-bearers/#findComment-2300187 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Juan Juarez Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Definately that one.. The painting stlyle is far more gritty and "appropriate". Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191104-my-word-bearers/#findComment-2300196 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrus Manus Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 Hm, I agree actually. Looks like I'm going to have to repaint my Capt sometime soon. In other news, look out for Lorgar sometime soon... :woot: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191104-my-word-bearers/#findComment-2300372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
