daboarder Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 Hey guys here’s the bits list for the lord some of you have asked for. Bits list for lord: Head: DA veteran Shield: assault terminators Daemon weapon: tyranid MC sprue Body+Legs: chaos terminator lord Shoulder pads: chaos terminator lord Shield spike: nurgle specific head from CSM command Shield cover: Chaos undivided standard CSM Bones: ghouls Bodies: CSM command nurgle standard Bloodletter skulls Various skulls and spikes from CSM standards, sprues and pieces Wings: tomb kings carrion Also here are the pictures of my Pre-green stuff sorcerer the cloak and stuff came from another lord that I had bought along with Abbadon to modernize him after giving it alot of thought I decided to butcher it for parts because it’s not something that I would field and if I want it as a display piece I can always do the conversion again. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/005-6.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/006-5.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/007-4.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/008-3.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/009-2.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201312-morbid-angels-blog/page/2/#findComment-2430030 Share on other sites More sharing options...

daboarder Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 Hey guys! One thing first, I know you guys want more painted miniatures but that is going to wait a bit as first I want to get my 1500pts sculpted so I can start playing but once that done then I will be painting them before I go on and do more sculpting. So here is my first 3 obliterators, I had a lot of trouble getting the concept for these guys. At first I was going to mount the weapons on the arms but they kept looking just like terminators carrying heavy weapons, something I most definitely did NOT want. Then I had a brilliant idea while looking through the old, old chaos codex. Why not mount the guns on the torso like the old obliterator models? So that’s what I did, then I decided that the techno virus wasn’t very nurglely and so I decided to go for more “organic” weapons and swapped to the tyranid one’s. However I would like to point out to those who would also like to convert their own obliterators, using mechanical imperial weapons on the torso still looks REALLY good it’s just not what I was after. The sculpting was mostly to make the marines look like they were possessed and I think it went alright. On to the pictures. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/012-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/026.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/013-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/026.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/014-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/015-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/017-2.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/018-2.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/019-2.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/020-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/022.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/023.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/024.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/025.jpg Edit: ignore the feet they will be sculpted into cloven hooves when the bases are done.

daboarder Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 Hey guys, another day anpther update. This time I'm showing you the current pictures of my dreadnought so you can see how he's doing. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/013-2.jpg First up we have the banner, I love how this has come out so far especially how it looks like the blood drop/ puss sack is corrupting the rest of the banner, and I'm almost tempted to use it for soemthing else. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/010-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/011-1.jpg Heres the coffin, It'snot quite what I was after but I think its a fair compromize between imagination and acheivability. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/014-2.jpg Next up is the gun arm, its only about 25% complete to be honest, buy the time I'm done I want the head part to look like a deamon of nurgle and NOT a carnifex, I also intend to corrupt the powerpack at the end of the gun a fair bit more. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/012-2.jpg This one is a close up of the left leg for the dreadnought, originally it was going to be armour plated like the other leg but with puss sacks hanging on it. Unfortunately I lost the peice after it broke off while repositioning the dreadnought so here is what I came up with instead. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/015-2.jpg Finally a rear shot to show how the vents are attatched to the dread. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/016-2.jpg So guys please leave any C&C you feel like below.

daboarder Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 this looks so cooool :tu: great conversion using the aobr dreadnought and those oblits are stunnning Actually its the Standard dreadnought I had lying around that I decided to Defile, and that gun arm was once an assualt cannon. I decided to keep my AoBR dread becuase his multimelta is more suited to my Perdition Guard BA successors than this one was and the standard one was also easier to convert into the stance I wanted.

daboarder Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 Hi guys a quick weekly update before the weekend. This week I will be playing my first game with this army and though the miniatures aren’t finished and most of them don’t even have the detailing done to them yet, I decided that I really really wanted to start playing with them so that by the time I’m done I will have a firm grasp of how to use them to full effect. So heres the final list for this weekend, I know the units aren’t optimal but I’m going for fluff over effectiveness. HQ: Mordread, Lord of The Scourging: Typhus Total:225pts Elites: 6xTerminators: 180pts Icon of nurgle: 40pts Champion: 10pts Combi-flamer: 5pts Heavy flamer: 5pts Chain fist: 15pts 2xpowerfists: 20pts Total: 265pts Iscarion, the Traitor of malthax: Dreadnought: 90pts Plasma cannon: 15pts Heavy flamer: 5pts Total: 110pts Troops: 7x plague marines: 150pts Champion: 15pts Power fist: 25pts 2xplasma gun: 30pts Total: 231pts 7x plague marines: 150pts Champion: 15pts Power fist: 25pts 2xplasma gun: 30pts Total: 231pts 7x plague marines: 150pts Champion: 15pts Power fist: 25pts 2xFlamer: 30pts Total: 231pts Heavy support: 3x Obliterators: 225pts Total:1498pts No post would be complete without some picture updates so here’s how the dreadnought is coming. I once read a quote from a famous sculpture whose name I no longer remember that said the strongest images are the ones that are recognizable in silhouette, and that’s the basic design philosophy that goes into all my models. With that in mind I’ve redesigned the gun arm for my dreadnought to this the final incarnation. Of particular note is the “organic” limb joint, I think it makes a nice contrast in the model having the mechanical limb attached organically and the organic arm attached mechanically. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/174.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/173.jpg Along with this redesign I needed to change the angle of the head so that the entire model was clearly directed in the same way. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/176.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201312-morbid-angels-blog/page/2/#findComment-2482059 Share on other sites More sharing options...
daboarder Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 Hey Guys, it’s been a while. Anyway this weekend I had a little spare cash as I couldn’t g out due to an injured neck so I went down to the shops and picked up some stuff. One of these things was the new daemon prince as I will be increasing the size of my force to 1750 pts. I seriously considered forking out the cash and getting the metal nurgle one but in the end I decided I would be better off spending the cash on a daemon prince box and a spawn box and using my bits box to make 2 daemon prince’s and 2 spawn for gift of chaos. Anyway here’s the main prince at his current level of completion, still much more to do on this bad boy. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230218.jpg Of particular note is the chest eventually it will have this symbol on it. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/010-1.jpg Here’s the head, this is going to sound weird but I’m aiming to have a cyclopse, vampire, nurgle hybrid thingy hence the Eye and the choice of head piece. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230219.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230220.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230220.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230221.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/P8230223.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201312-morbid-angels-blog/page/2/#findComment-2494646 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicced Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 very nice work mate. my favourite is your dreadnought, although i would suggest more green stuff for the weapons, cuz they still look too "niddy" to me. just my two cents...

daboarder Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 cheers mate, first reply in ages. The dread has had more done to him but I'll probably end up relying mostly on the paint scheme to take the final nid out of the parts I've used as I intend to paint them like corpse flesh.

daboarder Posted April 21, 2011 Author Share Posted April 21, 2011 I come bearing the gifts of papa nurgle. So as it was requested I update this thread, heres the current progress on the plague/nurgle marines, squad on is being painted while squad 2 is still undergoing sculpting. Thoughts: squad markings are a bitch.....then I figured that if I was sculpting on details why not sculpt squad markings to link the units together, as such we have the spine squad and the ....barnacle squad? spine was sculpted before barnacle and due to the more imposing nature of their posing and the fact barnacle was mostly left over bits, means that I had to push my sculpting further to make barnacle impressive on the table....I think its working so far you know what lets make it a selection at the moment. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/174-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/175.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/176-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/177.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/178.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/181.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/179.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/184.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/183.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/190.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/185.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/191.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/194.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/195.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/196.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/212.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/200.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/202.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/205.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/206.jpg So thoughts anyone? edit: oh heres a dread update: http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/082.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/084.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/087-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/085.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201312-morbid-angels-blog/page/2/#findComment-2732619 Share on other sites More sharing options...
daboarder Posted April 21, 2011 Author Share Posted April 21, 2011 a week before christmas I was asked if I would like to participate in the local conversion contest, I wanted to enter something new and for a while I had thought about expanding my BA nurgle marines with some apocalypse super heavies, with that in mind I dragged a baneblade out of the closet it had been resting in waiting for a stealer cult and decided that it would look better as a plague reaper instead. this is the finished product after about half a week of modelling and a day of painting unfortunately I didn't get to finish the painting before the competion but I am pleased to announce that I still won. there will be more pictures coming of the painted vehicle and showing more of the details. I now plan to add another plague reaper with similar design and a corrupted shadowsword to help kill titans and other super heavies. http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/086-1-1.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/087.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/088.jpg http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss2/daboarder/089.jpg points of note: Daboarder style nurglings are fun and easy to make and I expect to be adding more as a common factor to all vehicles in the army. PS: look for updates to my morbid angels blog within the week as i now have time to finish up the basic infantry.
