Belial & Command Sqd

These are looking great!

 

My only nitpick is the shape of the shields does not totally lend itself to a knightly chapter but with that said, they work by shear awesomeness of detail with the lion and laurels. May I suggest the laurel shield be put on the banner bearer though? I believe laurels usually indicate as much (not that it's a must). Perhaps you could put a small DA icon of some sort inside the round of the laurels as well.

 

I love the helmets, they give them a touch of crusade-era feel, as we would expect the command squad to have the most revered relics. The hammer heads as well will help them stand out as unique

 

I have two questions, 1) How did you make your narthecium and 2) what shoulder pads did you use on their right side?

 

By the way, I also saw your Belial on the other thread, now that is looking top notch. All the bits come together quite nicely for a very unique conversion.

Yep I've some swapping around to do. My original intent was to put the Laurel shield on the Standard Bearer but I made a last minute change looking for somewhere to put a Helix for the Apth, though your right it should go back to the SB.

 

All of the conversion pieces are from Maxmini, they are Steam knights Helmets, Black Lotus Tribe Shields, and Mechanical Hammers. They can be found HERE.

 

The narthecium is a suitable bit that came with a FW Xeno Disection Table that I got for another conversion I've still to start.

The right shoulder pads were made for me by Maxmini, it's an eight pointed star, kind of Chaosy but its seen quite often in DA and SM iconography.

Well if that's how you are going to go, roll with it, the Helix would fit well there. It's not like it's wrong per se.

I'll be done in time.

Looking great Puriexdeus, I am glad you will be done in time!! Some of us will be pushing right to the last minute I'm afraid. I love those shields... and the detailing. Looking forward to seeing Belial painted and up close and personal! :P
