knightyc Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Hi all. I have just started on here and have a lot of blood angels stuff to show in time. Recently I have started on a Librarian dread. I started with a Venerable Dread and I will make the arm for the right side (his right) myself. He has 2 of the hand fists as close combat arms to do that i had to chop the fingers and thumb off and reposition them. Heres the first lot of pics http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TDC40NVMotI/AAAAAAAAANw/qyyNNQFFfRE/s1600/DSCN0517.JPG http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TDC4P8Xcv5I/AAAAAAAAANo/iumDNMp7Ens/s1600/DSCN0518.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TDZJfI2HnMI/AAAAAAAAAOM/Gf1EK0Ot2KA/s1600/DSCN0519.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TDZJjpnFHhI/AAAAAAAAAOU/e7OnlCQcPi4/s1600/DSCN0520.JPG http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TDZJtusEE8I/AAAAAAAAAOc/kx7qHe-k14k/s1600/DSCN0521.JPG http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TDmvoLfDsTI/AAAAAAAAAOs/U-mGXNsIy0c/s1600/DSCN0525.JPG let me know what you think.

Haunter! Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 he wont have a sword who needs a sword when you have two fists I like the way you think. Nice job with the right arm; I've been looking into doing the same for my Furioso. Very interesting choice to have a bare faced dread. If you keep the posing of the arms as they are I think it'll turn out very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightyc Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 he would look wrong with a hood and a helmet. I had to make the hood with green stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son Of Moriar Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Fantastic looking model m8 will be watching to see ur progress..... Only thing; doesn't the codex say that the Furioso Librarian has a Blood Fist and a force weapon???? Does that mean one of the fists is a Force Fist?? Would look great painted blue with power cracking around it. All in all keep up the good nay excellent work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightyc Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 Ok I have done the one fist as a "force fist" with electrical charge. Let me know what you think. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TIJm2RP_F_I/AAAAAAAAAPw/fURPtcQWPUg/s1600/DSCN0571.JPG http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TIJm61WaoOI/AAAAAAAAAQA/PVAwT_Z6HVc/s1600/DSCN0573.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zoANB2KPqko/TIJm8A5rSFI/AAAAAAAAAQI/zGwSE5APBbA/s1600/DSCN0574.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epistolary_Kalphanian Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 To me, the Librarian head/I'm-still-alive-but-controlling-an-enormous-robot thing just looks wrong. I'll have to convert one myself to show all of you noobs how its done :P lol But yeah, the shadowing on the energy on the powerfist is a little thick and lacks depth. Your red could be a bit richer and the highlights may help it look that way. Keep it up ^_^ Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightyc Posted September 5, 2010 Author Share Posted September 5, 2010 each to there own lol http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v281/knightyc/dread.jpg so the head of the librarian would/could be shown when was last time you saw a libby with a helmet on wouldnt work too well with his pshycic powers less of the noob tho i played 40k since 1998 lol. The pics really never do the models justice and have to been seen in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpsilver Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 I think it looks a bit perculier with a living head sitting there. When a Marine is put into a Dreadnought, they are usually frail and deathly, the Dreadnought entombs them completely since they are placed inside the sarcophagus which acts as live support system. With his head sitting there it's also giving the enemy a weakness to shoot at! Imagine, one bolter round to that location and the Dreadnought will no longer function. Although as what was said already, it's a good conversion never the less, but a little odd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassWave Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 The librarian is using his psychic powers deflect small arms fire away from his face. Come on guys, use your imaginations ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Cortez Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Come on guys, you never seen the turtles cartoon? the big guy with the little brain thing in his chest?

Dark Armada Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 so the head of the librarian would/could be shown when was last time you saw a libby with a helmet on wouldnt work too well with his pshycic powers less of the noob tho i played 40k since 1998 lol. The pics really never do the models justice and have to been seen in person. I've been playing for a tad longer.... but anyway. You claim to have been playing since 1998 but you ask when the last time was that a Librarian wore a helmet??? There was about 3 librarians in 2nd/3rd edition Space Marines WITH HELMETS. Plus there were 2 in RT. It's only recently that the bare headed Librarians have really taken over. Back on topic, however; I like the dread. I love the converted fist. My only problem is the join at the thumb, it's obviously GS. Maybe angle it a bit more to fit in with the armour plating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
