Lt.doobie Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Hello Lt.doobie here, A few days ago I decided to try and make an Ordo Malleus Inquisitor in Terminator Armor, with the Nemesis Daemon Hammer and such. This is a photo of a model I basically kit-bashed, with very little conversion. However I am in the process of sculpting a different chestplate that is a little more "inquisitor". I know there is still mold lines and stuff still. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/inquisitorfront.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkVen Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Not bad conversion. But I think, more inquisitorial signs should be. Maybe you place here more photos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt.doobie Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Yeah true, it does need more iconography. I'm thinking I will include some scrolls and maybe sculpt a little more onto it. This website is a pretty good source. http://www.tearsofenvy.com/termi-nation/ar..._inquisitor.htm http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/inquisitorback.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkVen Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 How about huge "I" on his chest plate? ;) Also, I don't know exactly... maybe grimoire on chain? Anyway, nice work ;) It's interesting to see following progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
their kin Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 NO! No more sigils man, I'm begging you! One thing that you see all too often is overcrowded, overcomplicated miniatures. It looks like it has a good balance right now, and with maybe a painted I on the tabard, there'll be plenty that says inquisitor. I love it as is. -joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retributis Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I think a sculpted I instead of the crux terminus would look good, especially since I don't think non-astartes use it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olgerth Istaarn Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I like it. I think the I above his head is enough. I'd leave it be at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicced Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 i like it! and i agree that he's got enough iconography already. more would look crowded and ostentatious. i also think the crux terminatus has to be converted or removed, because he's not an astartes. looking forward to seeing more progress!

Lt.doobie Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Update of my progress. I decided to remove most of the iconography from the Terminator armor and tabard, opting for a much simpler look. Now I just have to tidy up the model, fix up the base then paint. hmmm... Anyone got any good ideas for colour scheme? Or if I should freehand the breastplate or leave it blank. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0181.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt.doobie Posted June 23, 2011 Author Share Posted June 23, 2011 Made a small band of henchmen for the Inquisitor today. I didn't really worry about what the best possible unit could have been, rather I had the parts on hand or had an idea in my head. I'm leaving them without shoulder pads as it reduces their size and distinguishes them from regular marines. I'm reconsidering the models with the Storm Bolter and the Combi-Melta though, they just don't look quite right. Maybe not enough bling or just too boring in comparison... Also I know, I still need to remove mold lines etc though C&C is welcome. Firstly, Warrior Acolyte in Power Armour with Storm Shield. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0209.jpg Warrior Acolyte in Power Armour with Storm Bolter. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0207.jpg Warrior Acolyte in Power Armour with Combi-Melta. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0205.jpg Warrior Acolyte in Power Armour with Bolter. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0202.jpg Group shot. Cheeeeese! http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0214.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt.doobie Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 Update Sorry for the double post. I've done a small amount of painting on some of the henchmen, although I've really hit a snag with how to paint the models in power armor or the Inquisitor. I can't really think of a way to tie in the colours with the models in flak armor. Anyway, here is some WIP. I decided to make this model into a Crusader, I felt it the change was for the better. This guy is minus his shield, which is separate for painting. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0216.jpg Psyker http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0222.jpg Warrior Acolyte Bodyguard in Carapace armor http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0223.jpg Inquisitorial Servitor with multi-melta http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0234.jpg Comparison of some of the models http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y67/masterdoobie/IMG_0236.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grotsmasha Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I really like where this thread is headed, and the colour on that female bodyguard is absolutely gorgeous. Cheers and keep it up, Jono Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midge913 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Nice looking pieces so far mate! The conversions are cool and effective and your red armor is looking very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
