Alba Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Hi All, quick update from ye olde Knights Of Russ. My Scibor model arrived earlier in the week so i've started to build and paint him. This is just the first of many pics. I'm planning on having a Storm Shield hanging over his back and obviously finishing the paint job. On that note does anyone have any tips on how to paint faces/flesh as I am terrible at it! Sorry for the size of the picture, uploading from work and MS Paint isn't the best for resizing :cuss http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_F0WQSgkG190/TA6OsNzjohI/AAAAAAAAAXM/aeIpUxKU3SE/s1600/Rune%20Priest%20-%20Runic%20Armour.jpg All C + C welcome as always!

CainTheHunter Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 He is much better than mine... Except, the head is not very wolfy IMO and needs some facial hair :cuss. These are the parts from maxmini, aren't they? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/203697-rune-priest/#findComment-2428334 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alba Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 From Scibor Miniatures, he's got a beard, you just can't see it from the angle of the picture. I'm also using a marine crossed with a chaos warrior from fantasy, it works really well, you've hit on a good un with your Priest :cuss Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/203697-rune-priest/#findComment-2428340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirax Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 He could easily pass for Leman Russ from where I'm standing. Great job on the legs by the way, can we have a list of parts please?!

Kjarl Bluetooth Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 can we have a list of parts please?! I've checked Scibor's website and, as far as I can see the model is just as bought except for the arms which look to come from the SW PA sprue with weapon swaps.

Requiem of the Wolf Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 can we have a list of parts please?!

Alba Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 Thanks everyone, yup the body, legs and head are all the same model from scibor, SF Celtic Warrior I think, the right arm is a wolf termi arm with the shoulder cut down to fit and the left arm is a wolf spru sword with the sword cut off and a wolf termi thunder hammer fitted round the hand. I'm gonna model a storm shield hanging over his back. You'll be glad to know that helped massively in a doubles victory tonight, 750 each, me and chaos vs orks n nids.

WG Vrox Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Model looks great, I think that model will be my new Runic Armor WL with SS/TH. With that, I am assuming you meant Runic Armor in your title not Rune Priest. Either that or your just building a model that you don't plan to play with. Reason I say this is the RP is not able to have a Thunder Hammer and of course a SS would be an illegal piece of wargear both for the RP and as a HQ's third handed piece of wargear. Now if we are just talking a good looking model then yeah baby that will all look very cool.

Vrox Runic Armour yes, but also meant it as a Rune Priest, Thunder Hammer doesn't have to be a Thunder Hammer, could be Runic Weapon which all rune priests have, and I think a nice big Runic Hammer sounds good to me! With Regards to the Storm Shield, its just to make the model look a little better, my Rune Priest kicks about with his Storm Bolter and Runic Weapon and his retune of Grey Hunters making games that little bit more interesting! I'm also looking to maybe add a familiar/Chooser of the Slain but we will see how that one works out.

Yeah, the arms, shoulder pads, and main body are all separate, the default arms are ok, a big ass axe and what looks a bit like a bolter, I wanted my Hammer and bug gun which is why I went for the GW arms Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/203697-rune-priest/#findComment-2429526 Share on other sites More sharing options...
