Metal Apostle's White Scars thread


Recommended Posts

Vow completed. After chain late nights and hiding away during the Easter holidays I managed to complete my LPC vow. I just hope my submission made it in time! To my knowledge the day was over but the event hadn't been closed yet... I guess we'll see.

Quite proud of myself really, so here goes:

The speeders

The bases

The guns...

More guns..

Quick tip: if you have a lot of magnetized guns, an old cookie tin makes for a very good organizer (rather than have them suddenly attract and stick to one another!) also good for holding them for spraying.

And of course, the mandatory group shot.

And now, I shall sleep.

I'm back, brothers! Been away from B&C for a little while- mostly due to the laziness of taking photos so i've just been dumping them on the White Scars FB page (Here, for fellow Khans: https://www.facebook.com/groups/508399122516911/ )

Rest assured, the white horde has still been growing. Just as I thought things would slow down this juicy new codex gives my beloved chapter the attention it deserves!

Anyway, here's some more speeder love. As a White Scar invention, I'm going to need some Land Speeder Tempests but I always figured the FW version could do with a little more work so I built my own. It's based on the Land Speeder Storm with bits from Baal predators, drop pod wings and a flakkload of plasticard to give it that mobile, flying predator feel.

Still WIP but the tough part is over- next up is more rivits, decorations and of course- guns.

Dude really really nice work. Mate of mine gave me htis link as i am soon to start my own white scars. I am curious to know the method for battle dmg sponge? or brush. also if you do not mind sharing, what was the method behind the missile launchers.

I currently have magnetised doors on my land speeders for the missiles, however it is hard work to get that done. This method seems alot easier.

Cheers for all the support!

I'd love to show what i've been up to but they're on display at my LGS! Will take some photos next time i'm down there...

 

As for the missiles, first I assembled them, then cut the arms down to the length I was happy with. From there, I made a simple mount using a flat piece of plasticard and a magnet. Then I glued plastic rod on either side for stablitiy and to make it look a bit more detailed. It really doesnt matter too much because you don't end up seeing it very well, so long as you can join the missile pods to a magnet you'll be fine!

Haha, Firepower- The Gale has its name plate clean because... well... because I missed it, really! Will be sure to remember on the next one!

As for what I had been up to during my lazyposting period, first I completed a squad of sniper scouts which won my LGS's 40k Squad catergory; I'll get more shots when I'm able, but I was able to snap a few before my game last week. I'm actually really proud of that squad which came with Neltoi the Headtaker, a sharpshooting Veteran Sergeant with a Stalker Bolter.... Unfortunately since the new codex, that's now a redundent but still very cool model. In the meantime, here's 3 of his squad:

I also built myself a Chapterhouse Stormraven! Figured I'd try my hand at some more complex freehand for this one... I wanted to also bring in a little more concept with this one too. At my LGS I'm famous for failing dangerous terrain tests, so I was hoping the scenic base would help lift the curse. With that in mind, I give you The Phoenix.

This is what I fielded the other day at 1750pts (Also made the display tray.. makes carrying models around easier)

The game was a draw by time-out (I had a meeting), but I now come prepared to my battles... If I lose, I lose as a loyal Son of The Khan!

Scouts: Love the mix of bits, very characterful.

 

Stormraven: Oh my... That is just mind-blowingly awesome :wub:

 

Display base:  A bit bare, but it looks good.

 

Objective marker: Nice!

 

Dice & White Scars codex: Epic :tu:
