Komrad Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I always loved the design of the Word Bearers. The concept of Chaos Chaplains is too hard to pass up, so I went ahead and convert a Dark Apostle. Here is the assembled mini. http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/MrChaos_album/DSC02311.jpg http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/MrChaos_album/DSC02312.jpg Let me know what you think. I will be applying paint soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draakur Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Cool stuff. I particularly like the choice of head, the weapon configuration and the backpack design (I normally abhor fancy backpack adornments but this looks solid). He's fairly over the top, and borders on the cartoony, but you seem to have managed to keep it from looking absurd. I like it :P If I were to change anything I'd probably take his helmet from his powerfist, attach it to his left hip (removing the pistol holster) and leave the powerfist as is, beckoning/gesturing mid-oratory.

Wicced Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 looks really good, only thing i'd change is the part of his robes hanging between his legs, the rolled part on the bottom looks like he's going to stumble, when he's trying to move. and his crozius looks like it's not really straight. but a fantastic conversion nonetheless! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natanael Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 That is one of the most awesome Dark Apostles I have ever seen. Great work, great kitbash, and great GS-addings. - Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzdougs Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Looking really nice. I love the possessed left arm. @Nihm: I think the flames are from the Vampire counts 'corpse cart'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komrad Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Thanks for the feedback. I have changed the mace/crozius to a much smaller one. http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/MrChaos_album/DSC02316.jpg Where'd you get the firepots for the backpack? I've been looking for those all over. Yup kizzdougs is right. The torches are from the VC Corpse Cart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Apostle Thirst Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Noooooo! The crozius should have stayed massive ;) As your threads always are, exceptional work ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicced Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 i liked both crozius heads, but since the smaller one is straight, i like it more :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Komrad Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 Praise Lorgar, it is done. A fun piece to paint and convert. I have been reading Daemon World and the book feature some Word Bearers. I couldn't help but make this badboy. http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/MrChaos_album/DSC02333.jpg http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/MrChaos_album/DSC02334.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draakur Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 :) Out.Standing. At first I wasn't so sure I liked the white/bone helmet, but it's starting to grow on me. The scrollwork tabard is seriously terrific too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quixus Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Oh the helmet is supposed to be the Apostle's own? I thought it was supposed to be one of his enemies, and was going to remark that a loyalist helmet would be more fitting. A rebreather + a helmet seems bit much. Otherwise awesome model and paintjob.
