-the-white-lizard- Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Ok so, Im not too good with the fluff, but my crusade is based around a missing battle barge "Empress" (purely fictional). Marshal Falcor was sent to find and retrieve the missing ship. This thread will be my building and painting log as I build my list to 1750pts, to begin with I will post a picture of my first ever painted templar, although he has no place in my list and I intend to change the scheme a little. Here goes: (Powerfist Pete) - ignore the date as I had not set the time on my new camera http://i876.photobucket.com/albums/ab329/chickennappr/Templars/BlackTemplars002.jpg?t=1276049725 I should have a picture of my converted emperors champion up shortly. All C&C welcome and appreciated, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 He's a beaut, man. Very nice work on the bone and cloth coloring, as well as the face. Clean highlights, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-the-white-lizard- Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 Thanks, I was very happy with the face. He has actually changed quite a bit in the past few weeks, his left knee is white with the templar cross, and I experimented with script all over his armour. If I can manage to stick to something for once, this could be my first completed army... yay! Will try to get a progress shot of my champ up here by tommorow. He is a heavily converted vangaurd veteran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-the-white-lizard- Posted June 29, 2010 Author Share Posted June 29, 2010 Ok so here is my completed emperor's champion: http://i876.photobucket.com/albums/ab329/chickennappr/EmperorsChamp-WiP.jpg?t=1277786968 http://i876.photobucket.com/albums/ab329/chickennappr/EmperorsChamp-2.jpg?t=1277787014 http://i876.photobucket.com/albums/ab329/chickennappr/EmperorsChamp-3.jpg?t=1277787040 So yeah, made him from a vangaurd vet, empire wizard flaming sword, and a few other bits. Hope you like, more to come in the near future. I apologize for the glossy looking shots, I have no idea why he appears that way in the shots?

Firepower Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Yes! Yes yes yes! Big freakin' sword, scripture out the wazoo, fire to purge the shadows, Templar supreme! If you can get your camera work in the same league as your modeling and painting skills, the Emperor shall shine upon you, brother. If not, no worries, my camera skills are hardly something to brag about either :D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acebaur Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Nice models! I especially like the flaming sword and the banner. Out of curiosity why is the battle barge missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Mook Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Really cool EC! The PF/bannerman looks great too. Very cool.

-the-white-lizard- Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 @Firepower - Yes, will have to look into how to take quality photos @Acebaur - It was those darn navigators, falcor believes it was a group of navigators aboard the empress that became influenced by chaos whilst gazing into psychic light or "Astronomican" that had been tampered with by Tzeentch's sorcerors.

Sersi Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Lovin' the Champion! Did you use the jump-pack chaplain as a base for the conversion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother_Cowboy Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 It was those darn navigators, falcor believes it was a group of navigators aboard the empress that became influenced by chaos whilst gazing into psychic light or "Astronomican" that had been tampered with by Tzeentch's sorcerors. Oh, come on. That was the best excuse he could come up with, 'I'am not lost... it was chaos's fault, damn astropaths' I could see how it would be unbecoming of a marshal to pull into a mechanicum refueling depot and ask for directions, but if its the difference between taking a light blow to his ego and being lost for decades in an unfamiliar part of the galaxy, I'd hope he would have enough common sense to choose the former. Because in the 41st millenium, Astartes are too proud to ask for directions. Nicely done chest eagle on Powah-phist Pete, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
