henrywalker Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Here is my Grand Master Conversion so what do we think of the conversion? i was going to keep the original sword and give him a left hand sword to be some big falchions, the left hand sword didn't work with the psilencer so i went for the halberds instead. to make him a a bit special i converted the halberd to have a longer double edged blade, making it look more like an assegai spear or similar. i'm not a fan of draigo's banner and mine came bent so i used a regular one which i'm going the free hand a design on to.

Fred Johnson the 3rd jr Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 My feedback is to not start two threads on the exact same topic four hours apart from each other. Imagine if everyone did that... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/227463-grand-master-inpensus/#findComment-2726022 Share on other sites More sharing options...
henrywalker Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 helpful, they are in two forums, one which receives one type of traffic, the other which receives a different group of traffic. i wanted feedback from both types. constructive or not at all please Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/227463-grand-master-inpensus/#findComment-2726043 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Johnson the 3rd jr Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 They are both in this forum (the other is locked now). They were posted hours apart as if you couldn't be bothered to wait for responses like us lowly normal folks, and even worse, you seem to think this is proper behavior. It is very constructive to point out such abuses of the system.

henrywalker Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 oh wow, you actually meant the one in this forum? well he has been re done and there is painting on him so i reposted him with the new updated photos. i personally thing it is unhelpful to post new photos in the replies section.

So you will just keep creating new topics for every painting stage for Grand Master Inpensus? Why is it so that it is unhelpful to post updates of a model as replies? Everyone else does that... and your topics are the same... OT, well nice and simple conversion. well done with the blade on the halberd! like that!

Valerian Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 First, Fred is right, don't create multiple threads to discuss the same thing. Just update the original one as you go. No big deal, and we'll consider it a learning opportunity for forum norms/etiquette. Second, I like how he looks. It is a good conversion, and I really like the Halberd; very impressive! Third, I would, however, question your weapon load out on your Grand Master. There is nothing wrong with the Halberd, and attacking at Initiative 7 will be the bomb. However, most folks would rather get the 3++ Invulnerable in close combat that the Sword gives you; especially since he's going to be an expensive IC that will be singled out in close combat. Also, you've given him the Psilencer, which is a pretty weak weapon, but is very expensive on a Grand Master. I would recommend that you stick with a Storm Bolter, or the much more reasonably priced Incinerator. The Incinerator is cheap and will be helpful every time you get close to an enemy unit. For the price your Grand Master is paying for that Psilencer you could almost buy 4 Psycannons in Purifier/Strike Squads! Anyway, just my recommendations, go with what you like, and what makes you happy.

henrywalker Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 in the new pictures i have given him the incinerator, i had yet to properly read the codex and hadn't seen the rules for the psilencer. TBH the main reason for the halberd is that i wanted to differentiate from draigo (who the model is based on) although I7 is very nice. I originally meant to give him falchions, using two swords to make them bigger and better, however that really didn't work trying to have a sword and a heavy weapon.
