Rob_Loken Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 Haha yeah, they're pretty horrific ( maybe not ruleswise) but certainly they embodiment of the depths to which the Claws have sunk too. I just wish that we get more info on what they did. I want them to expand on the trial of the one they show in the book.

tominator Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 that servitor is brilliant in the flesh shame that Ben ( cheltenham manager) chose Logan Grimnar over it.

Rob_Loken Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 Cheers man them's the breaks, it was a long shot that a servitor would win it, they're not exactly the most exciting minis GW put out. Haha. I was gonna enter the techmarine but I had so little time to paint him I just threw in the servitor instead.

Montuhotep Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Heh, to me he looks like he's checking something out, in a "Hey guys, what the hell was that?" style. :P Noooooooooooo, it's more: 'Hey, guys! Guys! Lookit what I just killed! Damnit, I'm good!' :P :D I do love the corpse taker apoth, think that's the pose for my Flesh Tearer's one nailed right there.

Rob_Loken Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Cheers guys, much appreciated. I finished the Flamer wielding Marine tonight so I thought I'd post him up. " more marines and the Assault Squad is done. Got my Terminators from Wayland today so I'm just waiting for the forge world goodies to make some bad ass 1st Company hard men. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2387.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2386.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2388.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228554-an-astral-claw-log/page/4/#findComment-2787617 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raphiel Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 You're definitely building an army with a lot of character. Very unique and original, I like it!

tominator Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 the pose on the flamer is great. Did you swap the nozzle with one from an imperial gaurd flamer? I also love the sarge with power sword and shield!!

Rob_Loken Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Cheers guys, It's mainly kit bashes at the moment and recycling the old metals which has given each model a slightly more individual look to eachother. tominator you got it bang on the money mate. I wanted to make the Flamer nozzle a bit longer but trying to file it down kept making it shorter haha so almost no point to doing it at all.

Rob_Loken Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 Hi folks been a while since an update, but my Forge World goodies arrived so I could begin my Terminators. The new pads are great, and I had to do very little besides peel some of the flash off. Also bought some mkIII aromour for my Sternguard squad and a pack of the Power Armour pads. Again perfect casts (you hear that GW!). Anyway, on to the pics. Here's the Sarge all painted up. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2389.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2391.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228554-an-astral-claw-log/page/4/#findComment-2797359 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherSargeantDaro Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Very Nice force there!! Very clean painting. Now frankly, I can't see the tactical value of having a lion snout sticking out of your shoulder pad.... but that's me being practical XP. Very well done!!

Vulkan454 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I like the terminator's pose a lot, it's very arrogant IMHO, which is good. Could we have a group shot of all your stuff now?

Rob_Loken Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 Cheers guys, I think the Astral Claws adhere to the Mr T Codex in that the cooler you look the better, hahaha. I do like the FW kit though, it's very nice. I got an army pic of all the units built so far. Got three more Terminators to do and finish up the bases on them and then I'll look at a Rhino and my Sternguard Squad. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2395.jpg Cheers again, Rob Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228554-an-astral-claw-log/page/4/#findComment-2799346 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Loken Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Thanks mate, I'm hoping I'll get it done to a reasonable level by the end of the month, I'll be adding stuff all the time but I'm mainly trying to get finished the list I posted up earlier in the thread. Just got to stop being distracted by shiny things. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228554-an-astral-claw-log/page/4/#findComment-2800273 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Loken Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Cheers Arne, I worked on a third Terminator tonight. The only thing left is to drill the barrels on these guys and complete the bases. I've given each terminator a different bare head in an attempt to give each some personality. I know that from a tactical and indeed, a health and safety point of view it's ridiculous, but I like the heroic (insane) look of bare headed marines. 2 more to go. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2399.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2396.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2397.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2398.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228554-an-astral-claw-log/page/4/#findComment-2800495 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 Finally got another Termi done. One more to go and I'm back on track. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2401.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2403.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2404.jpg Cheers, Rob Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228554-an-astral-claw-log/page/4/#findComment-2805476 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Loken Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 Cheers mate, he bought a Finecast Sternguard squad and was so angry with the quality he destroyed the shop. There is only rubble where GW Badab Prime used to stand.

Machinepriest Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Argh! Drill the Stormbolters! Other than that, great looking squad :lol: I really like the skin and the awesome Shoulder Pads.

Rob_Loken Posted June 29, 2011 Author Share Posted June 29, 2011 Yeah they on my list of finishing touches like painting the bases. Just need to find my hobby drill. Cheers for the feedback, I wouldve been lazy otherwise and left them in the hope no one would notice.

Rob_Loken Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 2 Sternguard completed. Heavy flamer is a kitbash of a Grey knight thingy, the cables from a sniper rifle and the front of a Dreadnought Heavy Flamer. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2412.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228554-an-astral-claw-log/page/4/#findComment-2808230 Share on other sites More sharing options...
