Eerie Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 As my guy is the next one and a flag bearer on top of that I can only say that I would love him with a big a** storm shield.

Yogi Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 That looks pretty damn swish. I like the freehanded symbol. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/241518-akans-reavers/page/18/#findComment-3027017 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talmora Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Tritus looks awesome and this thread continues to invade my mind. As yestarday I went to a Semi-local hobby shop and when I saw the Black Crusade book, I started reading it and started making a mental list of what Aken would have for talents, traits, wargear, minions and such.

Hyaenidae Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 Try typing 'Honey Badger Don't Care' in google images, you'll see what M2C means. Dammit, I finally got that saying out of my head after Louisiana got crushed (plus they finally stopped saying it on ESPN), and now M2C put it back in. Thanks, jerk. :rolleyes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/241518-akans-reavers/page/18/#findComment-3028762 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Rohr Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 How can you see the words 'uncaring' and a mental image of a honey badger not flash through your mind? If only he was black and white!!

Hyaenidae Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 *sigh* Honey badgers aside...here's the next WIP. Kyres, formerly of the Lamenters, Sword-arm of King Akan. I imagine Kyres as reletivly in control of his sanity, and tough as nails to boot. The memories and experiences of the Badab War are still fresh in his mind; from constant frantic boarding actions as the war began, to the frenzied street to street fights, and CQC deep within the Palace of Thorns as the slaughter continued. This man is a veteran of the worst Astartes on Astartes conflict since the Heresy itself, and I wanted to show it on the mini. I chose the Mk. IV chestplate, Mk. VI legs and shoulderpad to help reinforce this idea, the improved frontal armour looked incredibly tough to me together. The 'Icon' came out well, in my opinion. I was quite pleased with it, and I'm looking forward to painting him up. The Gladius is a relic from his days as a Lamenter, though the old hilt has been shattered years ago. A Red Scorpion femur made an excellent replacement, heh heh. As for his pose, I chose a steady trot, to help reinforce not only his skill in CQC, but also his level of control and (at least partial) discipline. Looking forward to painting this guy, hope you guys like him!

Yogi Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Wow man. Pretty damn fantastic. The sheild thing really works. I really like it. I can imagine him bashing away his foe with the sheild then a quick brutal stab with the blade. The choice of helmet is nice. I'm not too familiar with it is it a havoc head? Bone handle is also very cool. Sums it up nicely very cool. Also does this mean Ixion is in full sprint because he is a nutter? haha.

ThisisJimmy Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 That guy looks awesome. Glad the shield idea came out looking so good, and it makes more sense than a big ol' banner. Also love the use of that helmet, it has got to be one of my favourite helmets in the Chaos range Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/241518-akans-reavers/page/18/#findComment-3028976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zincite Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 My jaw kinda dropped at Tritus. Excellent work, excellent! The lost side of Chaos Marines you never see. And Kyres looks 'ard as nails.

Hyaenidae Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 @Yogi: Yep! :) AND I made him the grenadier. Nothing says Chaos like giving the psycho high explosives, lol! @Everyone: Glad you like him! Yogi had it right, the head is from the Chaos Havocs, I've been saving it for years for a special occasion. The tusks just screamed "I'm gonna gut you like a pig", which seemed to fit Kyres so well. I'm not sure I can describe how crazy-hard it was to carve through those DC legs to tall-scale that bugger, in the english language. This fella was insane to get together, but I'm very proud how he turned out. I'm looking forward to painting this guy and seeing how the Shield/Icon turns out. Off to my painting desk!

Brother Ambroz Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Heathens where's his chest from? I don't recognize it. Looks good though. I've been thinking of using that havoc helm on something too, just not sure what yet.

Hyaenidae Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 The chestplate is the Mk. IV from the Black Templar set, with the maltese shaved off, and a chaos icon from the Chaos fantasy range set into the center (I think off a helm from the chosen on horses, but I might be wrong...)
