Beast_of_Amareo Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 I decided against spending 10 Pounds for a metal model, so I opened by bitzbox and got to "work". I hope you like it. The models needs a bit more polishing to get rid of the glue "hair", but it is more or less ready. http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww179/antipatros24/IMG_0963.jpg http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww179/antipatros24/IMG_0960.jpg http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww179/antipatros24/IMG_0954.jpg http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww179/antipatros24/IMG_0964.jpg http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww179/antipatros24/IMG_0965.jpg http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww179/antipatros24/IMG_0966.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/203428-shepherd-of-the-lost/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

4RC71C FOXX Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 That's awesome, very good use of bits :-) Where is the head from? It looks like a perfect plastic chaplain head!!

igotsmeakabob!! Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 I have to ask where you got the head as well; it's perfect, the entire model is. Plastic > Metal anyway, good on you for making an awesome model.

Ivanzypher Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Very nice model, is the head a Khorne Berserker one with the rabbit ears cut off maybe? I'm not sure what I like most, the awesome pose, or that sweet crozius.

Brother Jim Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Nice model, but make sure to get rid of the mold line on the grail that's on top of the backpack when you do the final clean up! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/203428-shepherd-of-the-lost/#findComment-2425230 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Kovash Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I thought I recognized the helmet, very nice choice. Bit-bashing like this makes me think one day I'll get the hang of it.

Beast_of_Amareo Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 I would like to thank you all for your comments guys. I think that my decision to not buy a ready-made one is vindicated ;). To your questions: 1) The top of the Crozius is made from the top of the Banner in the Sanguinary Guard box. 2) The body/hilt of the Crozius is from the DC Thunder Hammer.

I apologize for my retarded slip. :) *** Now did you find the DC box had a better selection of parts for making HQ's and such than the SG box? I'm thinking of buying a DC box at some point.

Beast_of_Amareo Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 It really depends on the HQ you want to build. If you go for a Chappie, I would say that DC is definitely the way to go, although you might need some extra bits. If you go the Librarian/Captain road, then Sanquinary Guard box is more useful. Although, I would say go for both. They are superb kits and they really supplement each other greatly when it comes to kitbashing.
