the_cheat137 Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 This is posted up in OI also, but I figured to get more suggestions and criticism from a more varied audience this would be appropriate. I'll try to complete a new unit every week or two (but how often will I meet that goal?) :( Let me know what you think, especially if you have helpful criticism. Any time you think "you know what would be cool/better/not ugly as hell?" I want to hear it! Let's start off with a shot of the army as a whole so far. You'll see that the ratio of special troops like Veteran Superiors to normal Battle Sisters is way off. They're just so much more fun to paint :lol:. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ7_e9SbwI/AAAAAAAAAF8/Bp8Vt63krK0/s400/DSCI0098.JPG Here's a closer look at some of my favorite Superiors: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ7844x6UI/AAAAAAAAAFc/aN4w_Cp6R4g/s400/DSCI0087.JPG http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ67F_aGXI/AAAAAAAAAFU/zKCl1BB3DUI/s400/DSCI0084.JPG http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ79ozjYRI/AAAAAAAAAFk/i0V0r-eHIFM/s400/DSCI0088.JPG And some of the Battle Sisters they lead! http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ7-Ku2MCI/AAAAAAAAAFs/c3PFBImMFg4/s400/DSCI0092.JPG Someone who serves me as either a Celestian Superior or a second Canoness in large or Apocalypse games: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ66aFYkCI/AAAAAAAAAFM/NH82Z3vMHI8/s400/DSCI0085.JPG Here's a neat multimelta kitbash. Found a use for those otherwise useless Stormbolter Sisters. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ7-zUUzLI/AAAAAAAAAF0/Y1lF3hQiYL4/s400/DSCI0094.JPG A near-complete squad of Seraphim: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ64_9My3I/AAAAAAAAAFE/mFMNqedWsR8/s400/DSCI0081.JPG Lastly, my Canoness. The wings are very good, but try as I might I can't find the company I bought them from... http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ60cdWqxI/AAAAAAAAAE0/xd9zUr0m5_E/s400/DSCI0079.JPG http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TAJ6029rAbI/AAAAAAAAAE8/fn-YHKXecjE/s400/DSCI0080.JPG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/204088-sisters-of-the-steadfast-heart/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofmanynames Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 They look very nice. The purple robes look really good with the white and gold armor. I especially like the Superior with the shield and the multimelta. Also lovely Canoness model the wings make it look like a saint. I think these are the wings from your Canoness http://www.shop.microartstudio.com/mechani...2.html?cPath=45 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/204088-sisters-of-the-steadfast-heart/#findComment-2433441 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obliterator Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Very nice looking army, the conversions are simply amazing, as is the color scheme. * stamps on the Inquisitorial stamp of approval * Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/204088-sisters-of-the-steadfast-heart/#findComment-2433702 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Nugz Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I'm really liking the white. It is very clean and crisp, as is the gold corsets, isn't that odd? two colors you pull off amazingly are the two colors I can't do anything worth jack with. :rolleyes: I think you stole my skill.

ShinyRhino Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Nicely done. Good color choices, and crisply applied. Not a huge fan of the multimelta, but that's just personal style. What is the shield on the first superior made from? Can we get a front-on view?

Metal Apostle Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I like the shield on the Sister Superior. Where did it come from? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/204088-sisters-of-the-steadfast-heart/#findComment-2437775 Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_cheat137 Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 Hm, maybe those Multimeltas aren't as neat as I thought they were. Well, they're still far more useful than stormbolters :P. Here's a front view of that shield; it is from the Crusader model that comes in the WitchHunter Inquisitor Retinue box. I've been thinking about changing the shield from all gold by painting some of the shield relief in white and purple, but that might make it just too busy... http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1yjZKhg6xo8/TBo5gIJKGZI/AAAAAAAAAGE/AXhkVcqsptI/s400/DSCI0078%20(2).JPG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/204088-sisters-of-the-steadfast-heart/#findComment-2437840 Share on other sites More sharing options...
daboarder Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 nice mate, consider that shield idea stolen. as for painting it, yeah I'd pick out the background of the shield in you armour colour's it should make the rest of the detail "pop" more. Contemplate painting the raised I in red aswell as gold works better as a spot colour/accent.
