Conquer the universe! Pre-heresy space marines.


Recommended Posts

Welcome back man! The knights look absolutely awesome. I think I'm gonna have to pick one (or more...) up for my grey knights! Horus looks equally as impressive! It looks like you're going for some sort of glow around his cowl, which I think any self-respecting chief traitor should have biggrin.png . Keep it up dude!

Been working on a Horus model for a friend lately, and here's the progress so far.

Thanks guys!

 

Finally getting back on track with this army, and here's the first update on the army in a while.

 

Sigi has gotten a facelift (hopefully for the last time before the official model will release) from this;

To this;

And with a bodyguard of what will be über fancy Templars

32mm bases have been aquired for the entire army, but aren't interresting to look at till they are based so here's some combat shields I'm working on instead.

And Dorn's Huskarls are taking shape as well:

Last but not least my Spartan is finally at the painting stage!

I remember when this thread first started and had been but a young neophyte on this website! I love how far you have come and your Imperial Fists just look amazing, the conversions are truly unique and the painting does them justice! Really good Horus and one of my top 2 of the best renditions of him and the painting is just superb! Keep at it brother!

YES!!! He's back with the VIIth!:).... Fantastic stuff man. I'm loving the down swing on the Sigi sword, the lil details on each dood are awesome, your Dorn is fanfreaking tactic- would love to see some pics with better lighting;)

Horus' face... My goodness what a beaut!

The Knights

Ahhhh- awesomeness overload!!!

I'm on my 3rd round of FW brass and think the fists sheet is the best thus far- my first was the Aquila and then the SW sheet...

I'm excited to see more updates from you. Fellblade?!

I really must invest in some brass etch...

Great work, brother. Really characterful. thumbsup.gif

Brass is worth every penny and every drop of sweat and blood it takes to get the end result. And thanks :)

Amazing stuff dude!! Those Templars and the Spartan are looking brilliant and Sigismund is next level great smile.png

Thanks man :)

Just got myself a Spartan. How did you find assembly?

Honestly I built most of the Spartan over a year ago, so I might have forgotten how it actually was. But I will say that every bit of hard work you have to put in is totally worth it in the end as a Spartan is one of the coolest tanks available.

Thanks mate, this army has really been a labour of love so far and I am intent on having it done by the end of the year, or at least the stuff I have for it atm. who knows what will happen in the future :p And thanks, Horus is sadly not my own and will leave me once the last lick of paint is on, but I have great plans for my own version ;D

Thanks brother! I have some better pics of Dorn somewhere in this plog I think, but here he is again

The IF brass etch is some of my favourite as well, although all the different ones I have are great, the least great being the DA one, which is also one of the oldest.

And the Fellblade is doing well, she has just had some bodywork done, and will commence to painting very soon.

Excellent work there, loving the shields you've created! What will you be using for their shield hands on those terminators please?

Thanks :) The hands I will be using are the ones from the maces from the deathwing kit.

Wow, what an update! Where to start! Since I have just finished my own Spartan, I'll be very interested in how you go about yours. Very much looking forward to it.

 

I really like your Sigismund you have made, so much better than my own. Such a great pose and use of bitz. I really like what you have done for the uber Templar squad. I have held off getting the Forge World Templar Brethren for the sole reason that they are just missing something, which I found seen you have found! I hope you have the bitz process to make them in your thread somewhere, as I definitely want to recreate them. Really great work.

 

Huscarl's look awesome as well. Should keep Dorn very safe!

 

Fantastic work, and glad to see your still at it.

 

Cheers!

Thanks mate :) things are going quite fast atm (compared to my usual speed/ project schizophrenia) so hopefully I will start having a more regular flow of updates going.

The uber templars squad is mainly just mk II armour mixed with the Severin Loth honourguard torsos, helmets and halberds so far :) I will be getting a set of the templar brethren upgrades to mix up with my 2 planned 10 man Templar squads, but it is mainly for the swords and the torsos :)

 

Small update:
Man those 32mm bases are brutal looking!

Glory to the VII !  Those new recruits look quite imposing on the new 32mm bases.  Keep up the good work!

Aye Brother! Yeah I'm really loving the extra space you get instead of those annoying 25mm bases. I just ordered some upgrades from FW so as soon as I get them the templar brethren squads will start emerging full force as well :D
