CAM77 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Well, since I finished the deathwing command squad, which was my LPC project, I figured I would get to work on Belial as well, after all what good is a command squad without it's commander :) This was what I ended up with for the command squad: LION GUARD http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/Group.jpg For Belial, I wanted to use the same basic color scheme and try to continue the same theme these guys have. I used the forgeworld Lugft Huron model as the base. http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/lhuron5.jpg I had to get two of the lightning claw arms and flip the thumb around on one of them, but it turned out ok. I added the cloak from the chaos terminator lord and some fur stuff and other bits to tie him in with the look of the command squad. I also added some extra sensors / communications equipment to his TDA since I figured since he was controlling the entire first company he would need it. Here he is so far. BELIAL http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/IMAG0252.jpg http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/IMAG0251.jpg http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/IMAG0250.jpg As you can see, he is equipped with lightning claws, but has the Sword of Silence, and his storm bolter handy on his back. Now I just need to begin the slow process of painting him! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/247409-belial-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Stunning. Love the bolter and sword at his back. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/247409-belial-wip/#findComment-2995593 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tengo Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Very smart move with the storm bolter and sword of silence holstered on his back, not only does it looks great, but it prepares you for use of a different load out, in the face of WYSIWYG Nazis. It's a great model for the Master of the Deathwing, I can't wait to see him painted!

smellyfox Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Thats an awesome convertion! Those claws look fantastic, and I agree it is an inspired choice to have his SB and Sword stashed on his back!

CAM77 Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 Thanks for the compliments, I'm glad you guys like the model! The sword and bolter did look cool and that was the main reason for having them there, but I figured also that I might be able to run him that way without redoing him later if the sword / stormbolter combo becomes more viable in 6th edition, or our next codex.

Uhr Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Great work!!! Can't wait to see it done, and painted! Bests, Uhr PS: Please, don't forget to give him an Iron Halo (use Huron's); Belial is the Grand Master... :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/247409-belial-wip/#findComment-2996230 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Lucifer Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Well done! Like others I'm really impressed by sword and bolter on the back. It really adds to the model!

CAM77 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Thanks for the encouragement and input guys! Here is a quick update, since I had time this weekend to put on some basic colors and do some very preliminary shading, it should give an idea of how he is coming along. http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/IMAG0253.jpg http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/IMAG0256.jpg Hopefully I can find a bit more time to work on him this week.

Captain Semper Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 :blink: :tu: B) Bolter & sword strapped in the back? Seriously? That's waaaaaay too cool! It also re-affirms that Huron is the best basis for a Belial conversion! Nice work on the face too! Look fwd to see it finished!

CAM77 Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Ok, finished up Belial today, I have to apologize beforehand for the terrible quality of the pics. I got a new phone with a new camera on it and am still trying to figure out the right settings to get decent pictures out of it. Anyhow, hope everyone gets the idea :P Belial 360: http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/Belial1.jpg http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/Belial2.jpg http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/Belial3.jpg http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/CMcGill_2008/Dark%20Angels/Belial4.jpg For some reason I can't get the photobucket link to display the full size image. It is there on the site, but when I do the img link thing it shrinks them down ;) I will work on it some more later, and if all else fails, take some better pics with the old camera maybe but hopefully everyone can sort of see these tiny pics. Puck: the sword was from the fantasy Warriors of Chaos Regiment box, you can probably find the bit on ebay easily enough :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/247409-belial-wip/#findComment-3001520 Share on other sites More sharing options...
puck Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Where did you get the sheathed sword bit? I've had a sheathed sword conversion in mind for a while. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/247409-belial-wip/#findComment-3001530 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komodo Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Damn, got almost the same convertion. And now, that you've painted one, I need to paint mine. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/247409-belial-wip/#findComment-3001695 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAM77 Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Damn, got almost the same convertion. And now, that you've painted one, I need to paint mine. Hey, I guess great minds think alike! ;) Heh, in all seriousness though, I'd love to see how you end up doing yours!
