VAGABOND Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 Ztlambe - Thanks for the compliments mate, good to see more and more people liking the conversion. TrentL - No no not at all dude, listen I put it up on here for comments and criticism and I got a mix of both which I'm pleased with. But as we both mentioned, it's hard to please everyone eh :P Yeah, I'd love to see them and I'm sure they'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capnbeer Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Looking good, think i saw these guys in gw glasgow about 5-6 weeks ago but they were only partialy completed. Dont remember seeing the sanguinor there, interesting idea for a custom version of the model. Not the biggest fan of the actual sanguinor model(hence why ive not got him for my army).

spiros14 Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Awsomely nawsomely done but there seems to be somthing missing from the big S, maybe, a belt? (not that it matters, it's your model it it's way past brilliant in yours and a lot of peoples eyes, mine included) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAGABOND Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 Capnbeer - It probably was my army you saw mate, I've only just finished The Sanguinor the other day but if you see me again then be sure to say hello. :) Captin Spiros - I did consider adding a belt or some sort to him but like I mentioned I was kinda worried if I attempted it then I'd probably mess it up.

Knyx Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 God I hate to do this, but this is one of my pet peeves. No you see that's the thing I lwelcome criticism as it helps me improve on future projects. But it's the nitpicking at the slight wee thing, the wings are slightly lower down on his back mainly because I didn't have much room to work with and I didn't want the wings sticking out too far on the back due to transporting reasons. Well, actually, that means you're not taking criticism well. Its not really a failing to take criticism personally, thats what pretty much everyone does. It's less cool when you make passive aggressive comments to try to cover your self and get a jab in at the other person at the same time. Nitpicking is something trivial and unjustified. Saying something is not anatomically incorrect, be it physically awkward or is incorrectly proportioned is not really nitpicking. Its about as serious criticism can get on a converted model. Hell those are actually the only things you can criticize on converted models. I'm not going to comment on who I think is right because I don't really care either way about them. I care that I almost didn't show enough backbone to even post this and defend someone who was getting walked over on an internet message board about toy soldiers. (I mean If I can't stand up for what I think is right here, then where can I?) Panning someone off as nitpicking and at the same time saying that you "welcome" criticism is kind of ridiculous.

I took the criticism and explained why I did the model the way I wanted too look and the same thing kept coming up after repeating myself twice. I didn't make any kind of aggression to any other member and try cover my own back. I've got no idea were that came from but you took this the wrong way. The only person who was remotely cheeky to me was Firepower and I ignored his remark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I don't feel I was being cheeky :huh: Oh well, there's already been enough drama over what should be just a simple "Check out my awesomeness" thread. Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Very suprise to see you with out a army full of Terminators, Ryan (VAGABOND) you sure your feeling ok :P ;) Really impress with the army & overall look. Really like the High Priest. Any more models to add on, be pretty nice having Sanguinary Guards bits to conver a Chaplain or Librarin for exsample. Saying this I need to get my Sanguinary Guard force re-painted & replace my High Priest. IP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone thats seen this army in person has said the exact same as you. Nothing else at the moment mate, may possibly add a Chaplain in at some point but no plans yet. Have you got any pics of your SG Army, would love to see them dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you got any pics of your SG Army, would love to see them dude. (Note: Mean this as a bit of banter since I know VAGABOND) Think about it, it sort of is like your Death Wing army, I mean you got Artificer armour instead of Terminators Armour (2+ save), Feel no pain instead/replace the Inv save for you. You also have a low count on models as well (Deathwing get 25 in 1500pts list right?) ;) So still the love of the terminators for you, but one day you will be useing Power Armour models soon enough. Sorry no photos of my own, current in a re-paint phase make my Sanguinary Guards a bit brighter on the Gold, also make brand new High Priest. But on back set as I got to much on the go, Space Wolves (check topic area on profile) for tournament session, Games Day entry (two weeks & nothing done yet!!) & much more. Reason my club name me the hobby machine with the amount of project I been through & Finish. Chaplain just though it would be a nice conversion with the Sanguinary Guards bits, Legion of the Damned Sarg helmet (skull one). But again the force is looking really nice overall.
