Pig Of Sparta Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hi Everyone, just wanted to share this mini with you. I painted it after reading the Age of Darkness Anthology: http://i347.photobucket.com/albums/p456/pigofsparta/Heresy%20Era%20Stuff/IronWarrior1-1.jpghttp://i347.photobucket.com/albums/p456/pigofsparta/Heresy%20Era%20Stuff/IronWarrior3-1.jpghttp://i347.photobucket.com/albums/p456/pigofsparta/Heresy%20Era%20Stuff/IronWarrior2-1.jpg apologies for the pictures quality as usual :) thanks James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Exedore Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 He looks ace, crisp and perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Dog Studios Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 It looks great. I had the exact same idea after reading The Iron Within, easily my favourite story in the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Lovely IW, brother - going to give him Grand Company markings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimdarkness Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Outstanding. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapturowski Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Awesome. Love the head you used, almost gives it some sort of steampunk/astronaut vibe that I really like. It looks like something Ridley Scott would create. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Of Sparta Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Thanks guys: @kapturowski: I loved the head as soon as I saw it and thought the hood really suited the style of crusade/heresy era astartes. @ Olisredan: Soon as I re-read Iron within and work out a suitable marking for his shoulder I'll be doing just that cheers James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olgerth Istaarn Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 That's badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrannicide Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Now that's a Heresy-era model. This dude is so full of character. Gotta love some loyalist Iron Warrior action! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 :D :jaw: Ooh shiny. Will we see more of those? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorns Padawan Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 PoS!!!!! Dude your still alive haha B) . Been a while since you graced the board with your skills mate. The Iron Warriors story was my fav of AoD! Your model certainly has done the Warsmith Dantioch proud!!!! Just how I imagined them in their Mk III plate from the story. Any chance you might try & re-create any other characters ? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blckbuster Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 excellent, what head is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 excellent, what head is it? It's a plastic Grey Knight head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Of Sparta Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 Again, thankyou to everyone who commented :) @ Blckbuster: what Olisredan said, it's the bare head from the Dread Knight kit if I remember rightly. @ Quixus: there is a distinct possibility, maybe, possibly.... my attention span with stuff is famously short so don't hold your breath but I may surprise everyone. If you'd like to see some more Heresy Era Iron Warrior goodness you can check out my Land Raider Achillies thread in the WIP forum (shamelessly plugging my stuff now!) @ dorns padawan: Yup, life keeps kicking but I'm kicking right back :D It feels good to be posting again though. I'll be around as much as I can, fingers crossed that nothing else happens to keep me from getting online. Back on topic, I would love to try and recreate some other characters, I'll give the story another read and see if I canpick any out. Dantioch is an obvious choice but I'll see if anyone else stands out. @ Darth Potato: I'm glad you think so :D I think the mish-mash of armour and anguished, scarred face conveys the what this Astartes has endured since learning of the Great Betrayal. I like to think he might be rewarded for his loyalty to the throne though. cheers James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzdougs Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Wow!! That grey knight head really fits the Pre-Heresy scheme. Are you going to do any more IWs? I would love to see some more, especially after reading 'The Iron Within'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyaenidae Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 That's ironic as hell; I was just looking at that same noggin not even ten minutes ago, wondering if it would look ok on a non-GK marine. I guess so, lol. He looks great, awesome job! Any chance of a Dantioch conversion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
