Grimm Blade Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Great job! I really like Sepharan. Your conversion is very simple, clean, and effective. GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 Thanks all. IronKobra, sure is. Mithril hound, go for it. Sonofwaranddeath, you may. stared with chaos black prime(GamesWorkshop) painted over with shining gold,(GW.. the gold paint is the old shining gold from about 10 years ago.its no longer made in this colour):) washed with Choasblack(GW) and Darkmud (vallejo panzer aces range) then hight lighted with gold (vallejo model colour) and then on top of that silver (vallejo model colour). then finished with a chaosblack/darkmud wash again, Grimblade, thanks very much. Didn't want to make him to fussy, but in a way I'm disapointed with the sang guard. It leaves me with very little to convert as they are so good already. Next box I'll be reposeing the legs a little.

Eberious Posted April 17, 2010 Author Share Posted April 17, 2010 Ok, I've been distracted by modeling and have left painting behind :P, managed to get 2 models in Dante and the Dread finished so pretty good for me. Anyways, not happy with Astorath's legs, being far to small just like the Sangunior. I decided to give sculpting the armour a go, at least for the legs, I plan to use the top half the model as it is...well possibly put a helmet on him. Started out by carving into the leg, to try and give a more curvious look but dont think it worked to well. At least it doesnt look to bulky. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05898.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05894.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05896.jpg Not finished yet, still to add the little chain on the left leg, the detail on the foot and get the knees replaced with some skulls. I am a fan of the style of armour, but is a little to small for my liking. C&C welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted April 17, 2010 Author Share Posted April 17, 2010 Ok, finished the legs. Scroll detail taken from the GW version, and a little greenstuff blood drip on the left hip. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05904.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05905.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05906.jpg Helmeted. Cut down Chaos champion helmet. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05908.jpg Might add blood drip on helmet, 50/50 at this point. What you thinks guys? C&C welcome.

Keyoz Devastrius Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 My biggest gripe with the Astoraths model is that he's supposed to be a high ranked chaplain , but he doesn’t seem to have any of the chaplains standard equipment so I would give him a skull helmet instead, but that’s a purely personal thing. Overall I'm really impressed with your works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted April 18, 2010 Author Share Posted April 18, 2010 Hey, thanks for the comments guys, very much appreciated. :) @douchie. Will do the blood drop, needs a little somthing. @Keyoz Devastrius. Totaly know what you mean, so will probably paint a skull on the front of the helmet.

Eberious Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 Finished Astorath, modeling wise anyways. Also included all his wargear(boltpistol and grenades). Probably wont go with the blood drop on his helmet as won't really see it anyways from the angle hes at. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05912.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05911.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05910.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05909.jpg C&C welcome.

Gresiloth Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Great conversion, although in my opinion the axe blade now looks a bit small compared to the new legs and head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tagsta Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 great conversion! the new helmet is sooo fitting! can't wait to see him painted! hope you go for a chaplain black paintjob instead of the silly red one that GW did.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted April 20, 2010 Author Share Posted April 20, 2010 Cheers, will go with the Chaplain black as standard, bone colour for the detailed parts me thinks. That is if I get around to actulay ever painting them, as have failed to keep to my build then paint it promise I made to myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted April 23, 2010 Author Share Posted April 23, 2010 So started my libby Dread, Some may remember my flying Terminators and left the thread open to how i was going to get a Dread flying. Now with C:BA my wish has been answered. So temptation finaly giving in I started it last night. Was going to have the hero pose, like the other one I did, but wanted it a little more mobile. So at its basic level. Jet intakes on the front are technicaly nothing but thought a jet intake would be good, just to better help move with WoS power. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05922.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05923.jpg Jet thruster in the middle of the engine block. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05924.jpg Upgraded fist. Just the standard blood fist but thought its gotta be a little better than normal stubby fingers, being a Libby. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05925.jpg Had a game yesterday with a Libby Dread, but he managed to do nothing at all. Hopefuly when this guy takes the board he'll do better. C&C welcome, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GI Joker Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 They are all looking great. I love the coversions and especially the objective marker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Thanks GI Joker. Finished building my Libby Dread. I'm going leave the middle of the blood fist just in case the Libby can take a grapple if it gets 100% confirmed if yay or nay. If he can't I'll simply fill it in. Anyways I bring you Brother Librairan "name". thought as its the first of its kind in the 40k world (that I know of) and actualy have rules for it, that I'd go for heavy decoration. Tried my hand at some fancy swirls in the force weapon arm. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/DSC05981.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 Painted the Libby. Now was painting away and thru to intention what so ever I had ended up with something that looked fimilair. So painted the body blue, painted the shoulders red, blah blah, all the time thinkin this paint scheme look some what familiar. So I got to painting the force weapon it dawned on me what scheme it was(or very close to)... plus the arch window detail on the front gives some impression of a large vehicle. Lets see if anyone can guss who here minds me of. I named him Brother Libby Optis, leader of the autonoughts. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/Copy2ofDSC06030.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/Copy2ofDSC06031.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/Copy2ofDSC06033.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/CopyofDSC06034.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/CopyofDSC06037.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/Copy2ofDSC06032.jpg Blade http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/Copy2ofDSC06027.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk270/Eberious_2008/CopyofDSC06026.jpg C&C welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashe Darke Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I love your dynamic Dreads man. I've always had trouble picturing them moving and I like how you've represented that. I also like your painting style for them, it's very gritty and realistic, very unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matches Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Tur-hurr Optimus Prime...Looks good, the battle damage has turned out quite well. Though I have to say I probably would have gone without the wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eberious Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 Thanks very much guys. Currently doing a 7 man squad of CC terminators and a termie Libby and an idea sprung to mind(probably not the 1st to think of this) and just like the BT termie idea really. http://i838.photobucket.com/albums/zz310/Eberious_2010/DSC06041.jpg http://i838.photobucket.com/albums/zz310/Eberious_2010/DSC06042.jpg http://i838.photobucket.com/albums/zz310/Eberious_2010/DSC06043.jpg REALLY looking for feed back, I think it works and should work on the other chest plates from the sang guard set. Would look pretty cool having a command squad kitted out with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noodlenerd Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 oh god why didn't I think of that. good use of the chest piece, tried to GS something like that a few years back when I entered the AoD under another name(isn't this guy a beauty? ;)). Goddamn i couldn't sculpt to save my life back then. not that I can now, either... So anyways, suffice to say, the SG chestpiece does a better job at getting a fancy termi armour. I love it.

Terminatorinhell Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 what was the blood claw thingy from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 I like the Terminator a lot. Although I think it would work better if you didn't use the standard Termie head. Would the Deathmasks from the Sang. guard fit on them? In my opinion, the bulky termie helmet doesn't really fit in with the ornate chest plate.

Midnightmare Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Some really nice conversions here, keep it up. especially like the dreadnoughts and Astroath :D I echo the above coments about the termie needing a fancier helmet though, or a bare head?
