Beast_of_Amareo Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 For those that have seen my previous post about my Furioso Dreadnought might also remember that there was also a Chaplain in the pipeline waiting for its turn to be treated by Cadaver's hands. Well, no need to wait any longer. My Reclusiarch is here and woe upon those that do not bow with respect to his crozius. The conversion and choice of colour-scheme is mine and Cadaver is the Adeptus Painter. I hope you enjoy as much as I do a paintjob that to my humble opinion manages to capture the true feeling of 40k. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ym2HlBtEmuc/TaG5_L2D_HI/AAAAAAAAAZw/6zJJ9oYeRYs/s1600/Chaplain%201.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kGe8WgtCV4Q/TaG5_0DqGBI/AAAAAAAAAZ0/TyH7xE8BI1A/s1600/Flesh%20Tearers%20Chaplain.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flarack Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I think he's really cool. The paintjob is dirty nice and the model cool too. Although I dont like the helmet or head? It looks like a helmet but is too deep and has eyebrows. That is weird :) Cu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatGrinder Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Is that a mini-chain-bayonet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Maybe we were stunned into silence? ;) I like him :) But if a critique is looked for, then the helmet seems "flattened" to me. I mean, I get it .. Chaplain ... but that's my take on what I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cad@veR Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I really appreciate your feedback ppl! I personally like the helmet and the way it fits into a chaplain (having in mind it originally is a chaos piece if I'm not mistaken! ) The "eyebrows" I think is a result of the lightning of the photo, in reality the shades are more subtle. Glad that you like him Beast_of_Amareo! On to the next one I guess :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 It is indeed a Chaos Space Marine helmet from the new sprue. As for the mini, The muted colours really work to make it seem less cartoony (like mine for example) and more real. Great job, what's next on the painting table?

Haunter! Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 You did a great job painting this, no question there. I love how the gold turned out on the right shoulder pad. My only concern is the crozius and it's really only one of personal taste (I've always thought of the crozius as a bashing weapon, yours looks like it would catch a lot of resistance on a swing).

Beast_of_Amareo Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 @Meatgrinder: Yes, this is a mini-bayonet. It was not a difficult conversion, just a hacked chainsword. I thought that maximising the close-combat accessories in the model would fit well with the Flesh Tearers theme. @Haunter!: I was always imagining crozius as a slashing/blunt weapon. The winged emblem has its wings shaped like blades. In fact, it is the only one I have come accross so far that looks so blade-like. It's more like an axe with winged-shaped blades and some nasty serrated edges (FT there again here) formed by the feather tips. A general note etc, it is true that whatever Cadaver has in painting skills, he lacks in photography :D . So, the Chaplain has no brows, etc. You can see what I am talking about in the WiP photos (may things have changed since then :P ) http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d5bn3kJDfqM/TZo_8mB9G8I/AAAAAAAAAZU/YUA5vp-dnc8/s1600/IMG_5178.JPG http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-n9120NAgvDQ/TZo_9pXDFTI/AAAAAAAAAZY/D5zKxADAlcA/s1600/IMG_5179.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
