Talnox Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I have been playing for a while now but I just got some New Blood Angels to start my first Imperial Army. So I just started to build some bloodangels out of the battlebox, sanguinary guard, plastic captian kit, and plastic command squad kit. I also had a random sprew of empire mages for bitz. Here's the first two. I think im done with both but I may add some pieces here an there.

toaae Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Welcome to the B&C! And let me just say, that the new, metal Lemartes model is, in my own humble opinion, one of the coolest and most characterful models they have come out with in a long time. And yours stands up to it. Really, a gorgeous conversion. Great job mate! I agree with JamesI. I can't wait to see this stuff painted, and I will be following this thread.

Losfer Werds Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Those are some good looking models brother. Very dynamic poses, and the Lemartes conversion is outstanding. Can't wait to see these painted, good luck. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232910-talnox-blood-angels/#findComment-2804931 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talnox Posted June 29, 2011 Author Share Posted June 29, 2011 As Promised Dante. This one took a lot longer than I originally thought he would. His model is quite simple but some of the conversion bits took a long time to make. http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/262022_10150248268563493_553383492_7271729_2342210_n.jpg http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/259916_10150248268648493_553383492_7271730_4590306_n.jpg http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/267949_10150248268763493_553383492_7271732_4530154_n.jpg http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/262359_10150248268868493_553383492_7271735_1102096_n.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232910-talnox-blood-angels/#findComment-2806481 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talnox Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 I have been procrastinating building my assault marines and rhino with more conversion madness. This conversion was extremely challenging for me. Im not very good with green stuff yet but Im really happy with the way this turned out. Assault marines and Rhino done should be done on mon then Ill start applying some paint.

Talnox Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 And the painting begins. This is just a light base over primer for color depth. Im working a lot this week so Ill try to get another update soon. http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/265021_10150258704898493_553383492_7386243_4685933_n.jpg http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/268162_10150258704968493_553383492_7386244_3215519_n.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232910-talnox-blood-angels/#findComment-2816251 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venerable Jazzman Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 That is really nice work. Your green Stuff work is good too, especially like the BA symbols on Dante's jump-pack, did you mould them or sculpt them free-hand? One thing you could look at is where you've joined the two parts together to make Seth's eviscerator, that join will only become more obvious when you apply paint to it. Either smooth it off a bit or maybe put some scroll-work down it, same as the DC chainswords? Lovin' it so far. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232910-talnox-blood-angels/#findComment-2816372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spjaco Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Holy cow, the more I see of these models the more I think Kit-bashing might be the better (and more fun) way to build IC's.

Talnox Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 Your green Stuff work is good too, especially like the BA symbols on Dante's jump-pack, did you mould them or sculpt them free-hand? Instant mold from coolmini.com I used part of a DC shoulder pad i think for the mold. One thing you could look at is where you've joined the two parts together to make Seth's eviscerator, that join will only become more obvious when you apply paint to it. Either smooth it off a bit or maybe put some scroll-work down it, same as the DC chainswords? I know it doesn't look like it but it is actually very smooth. Once joined I used GW super thin super glue(the brush on kind) and filled the gap and sanded it down. Its just in the pic you can see all the super glue. Its primed now and you cant tell that its 6 pieces of 3 chainswords. Im mostly thrilled how seth came out I wish I could have done a slightly better job on the handle but oh well. I think its ok enough. i have some Pegasus wings coming in for astorath conversion. I dont have to work after all so im hoping to get another update soon.

Talnox Posted July 27, 2011 Author Share Posted July 27, 2011 Sorry I have not updated in a while. Life happens when you least expect it. I got caught up in work and my sisters wedding. So here I am again with another kit bash. Im hoping to get some time to paint soon but life just keeps happening. This is my Astorath the Grim. Hope you enjoy. I was bored at work one day and I am hoping I didnt go too far on this one. He's on the ridiculous side but I think its kinda fun. http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/262503_10150272444838493_553383492_7519397_3124312_n.jpg http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/252126_10150272444928493_553383492_7519399_1247617_n.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/232910-talnox-blood-angels/#findComment-2830716 Share on other sites More sharing options...
