Eikrem Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Still not working pal. Unfortunately Ive got no idea how to explain how to post pictures, which is pretty useless I know! I want to see this Word Bearers army though. EDIT: Much better. Pictures look good! Nice painting, well done! You got many more?

Mandragore Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 My second champ, in my army's fluff he's the first acolyte. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196894-word-bearers/#findComment-2345989 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Awesome first post man, where is the head on your aspiring champ with the chaos star on his face from? Your second champ reminds me of this "Alas poor yorick I knew him well."

the thousandth whisper Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Is this your first ever army or did you do fantasy before? they're really good, but all I can say is the gold needs a wash and some highlighting Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196894-word-bearers/#findComment-2346191 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talhydras Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Very good! I especially like the conversions with the Apothecary's arm and the one holding the IG Head! Where is that head with the chaos star from? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196894-word-bearers/#findComment-2346237 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirax Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Well, I like the first Champion.... But I also like the second Champion.... but which is better? Only one way to find out... DUEL! They are all good minis, your WIP marines are really good with the detail :whistling: That first Champion looks like he's been pointing at some spider coming for him, and then it's landed on his face and he's going, 'Ah.' But it's good! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196894-word-bearers/#findComment-2346282 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellios Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 These Word Bearers have pleased Tzeentch :whistling:... I will not assume to speak for the other gods! However I want to see more... I mean he still demands more sacrifices! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196894-word-bearers/#findComment-2346309 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword brethren Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 These Word Bearers have pleased Tzeentch :D... I will not assume to speak for the other gods! khorne seems content with the excess of skulls on the second champion :cuss still waiting to hear from slaanesh and nurgle.... they looks great for your first, a great use of fantasy heads. and the second champs pose is very nice, its almost cocky to be doing other things during battle which fits chaos nicely. keep it up :sweat: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196894-word-bearers/#findComment-2346382 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandragore Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 @talhydras: The chaos star head is from the metal chaos knight blister, the heads come in a separate sprue. I was lucky enough to get a whole sprue left over from a friend's fantasy chaos army.
