redman42 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Nope, im not dead. Work has just been sucking the life out of me. I have a bit of time this morning to post some work on the newly named Heirs of Horus (tons of fluff to follow). First up, a land Raider for the Sternguard or Capt with honor guard. http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus1.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus2.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus3.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus4.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus5.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus6.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus7.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus8.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus8.jpg http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/redstarone22/other/Heirs_Horus9.jpg As always more pics can be found at the MWC blog. http://miniaturewargameconversions.blogspot.com/ MWC is also having a monthly conversion contest.

HellHunter Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Wow that's pretty cool. I like the heavy bolter turret design. Not sure if I like the las cannons on top instead but thats just a matter of aesthetic opinion. If anything it leaves room for that wicked freehand on the sides. Definately digging all of the extra stuff on the vehicle; I personally like to do the same. The tentacles are nice touch, too. The paintjob is good; looks good and grungy. Overall I really like it. Nice job! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233376-heirs-of-horus-land-raider/#findComment-2809331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuckinbermuda Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Awesome. The Muliti-melta looks like it would be difficult to aim, basically need to turn the entire vehicle to target with it but suppose since everything else is on a turret compensates for that. Also having the multi-melta up front like that helps get it into maximum range I suppose.

Firepower Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Please tell me those portraits on the sides are done with some filthy Chaos trickery and not freehand...I don't think I could deal with being that outclassed...again. :D Very interesting at any rate. I like the domed HB turret. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233376-heirs-of-horus-land-raider/#findComment-2809875 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffy.Gee Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 A little too nurgle looking for my taste. JG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233376-heirs-of-horus-land-raider/#findComment-2809896 Share on other sites More sharing options...
redman42 Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 I must admit the banners on the sides are old GW ones from the early 90's. Though I did add paint to them and my own miux of varnish to give them that older feel. Also, its hard to tell but there are areas where i made it appear they are ripping as well as some spots that appear to show the canvas made of flesh.

So, thats what I went with. You arent the first to think they are to nurgly, hence why mutations are now pink, blue, and reds.
