BattleBrotherJohn Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Apart from the storm shield that comes with the Assault Marine set , are there any other storm shields designed to be uses with power armour wearing marines ? Do the Terminator armour storm shields work with power armour figures ?

UltraRich Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 They actually work pretty well The only issue is if you are really picky on detail the hand holding the sheild is too big but you can swap it out or GS it which would be better. I didnt Heres one painted up http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f372/rbrewster101/shield.jpg This ones now painted but I dont have a pic http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f372/rbrewster101/shield2copy.jpg If you want one of the 2nd one let me know Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222344-power-armour-storm-shields/#findComment-2657879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryJohnny Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 There are also some metal Storm Shields that are designed for PA: Thunder Hammer Conversion Pack Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222344-power-armour-storm-shields/#findComment-2657884 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 There are also some metal Storm Shields that are designed for PA: Thunder Hammer Conversion Pack Do you by chance know if the shields have hands at their backs similar to the RAS one?

Boltergeist Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I'm pretty sure that set is a mishmash of old bits (T-honors pad, IH sgt THammer, old metal termie SS), so most likely it has a hole in the back where a stud on the old arm would go.

AngryJohnny Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 @Quixus: I don't know, I'm sorry. I haven't purchased them yet. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222344-power-armour-storm-shields/#findComment-2657920 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeonic Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 They do have a hole in the back(instead of a handle), however all you have to do is use a bolter arm with a pistol grip hand and a bit of plastic to be the top frame to make a "handle". The masters of the chapter metal PA SS is also very nice.

Baal Dropout Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 There are also storm shields in the (now-old) DA upgrade sprue... I assume they're SHs because the hand is gripping the shield instead of holding a bolt pistol... you may need to remove the DA iconography tho...

CainTheHunter Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 SW pack sprue has PA storm shield as well. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222344-power-armour-storm-shields/#findComment-2658557 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prosedragon Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Assault squads come with a storm shield as well. The Space Wolf and Assault Squad storm shields have hands modeled on, the metal shields from the TH/SS upgrade pack have the hole on the back. Fantasy kits are probably the cheapest way to go, as all of the 40k shields I know of are either in high demand (terminator storm shields) or come one to a box (all the rest).

Aye, Bretonnian Knight kite shields work just fine on PA arms. Just add a little Greenstuff strap, and you're golden. Plenty of room for freehand on the face of the shield, or for attachment of bitz (I added a Crux icon to mine).
