Kierdale Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Yeah. That is awesome. Guess I need a Death Guard force now. I'll second that! The fly is absolutely fantastic! Perhaps the 6th Ed. starter box will be a good kickoff point for a chaos army.

firestorm40k Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Sweet holy mother of all expletives! :) That is the most incredible Defiler conversion I've ever seen. :) YOu've made me very sad that I have three of the normal ones, I wish I'd seen this first! Outstanding inspirational work :tu: B) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250365-death-guard-warband-showcase/page/11/#findComment-3140530 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackalos Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I see dreadknight and soulgrinder kits bashed there. What else is pieced together in that lovely?+1, I want to know what's gone into it too. Are there any standard defiler parts in there apart from the head?I think I want to make one for myself. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250365-death-guard-warband-showcase/page/11/#findComment-3140920 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctus Cornix Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 No, those are the feet of the dreadknight. From the looks of it, he's made out of an dreadknight using defiler/soul grinder armour plates to cover it.

GuitaRasmus Posted August 4, 2012 Author Share Posted August 4, 2012 Thanks guys - I'm sure the owner of it will appreciate the kind words. :D A quick list of things that went into it: A dreadknight kit - extended at the waist with various bits, otherwise its very stumpy Cut down defiler head (lost the horns) Defiler leg plates for the legs. Defiler claw plates for shoulders, and 1 claw plate flattened for the chest. random spikes and assorted stuff 2 x soul grinder swords. Edit: Forgot the loincloth, which is a bloodletter banner.

Grimm Blade Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I've spent most of tonight doing a conversion for a buddy, who wanted a "black knight defiler" for his black legion army he's working on - it came out pretty well: Fantastic job on the fly. And the Knight..................WOW!

GuitaRasmus Posted August 5, 2012 Author Share Posted August 5, 2012 Thanks a lot. :tu: I was a bit bored tonight (needed a break from the minis), but felt like doing something creative, so I messed about a bit in PS and made this. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250365-death-guard-warband-showcase/page/11/#findComment-3141352 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazakelXIII Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 This thread just keeps getting better and better, the Fly and the Black Knight are just stunning. Can't wait to see what you do with those Raptors.

Brother Turok Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Any update on the greater demon? ... it has to be one of the best greater demon sculpts/customs I have ever seen, definitely makes me want to continue my demon / chaos force. BTW, is that a trygon scythe I see shaved down for the blade?

BTW, is that a trygon scythe I see shaved down for the blade? Funny you should mention it. :) I've been working on the GD, since I wasn't completely satisfied with the direction of the old one - I've been cooking this up the last couple of nights, and like it a lot better. Lots of greenstuffing to do, and I'm still not sure about the head, but getting there. And yup, it's a trygon scythe. Oh, and look at his little friend. Thankfully, they're a lot less cartoonish live, than with GW's paintjob. I'll build a unit of 7, to go along with the big guy for my daemon allies. Ego: I've cooked up 5 guys - I'll hopefully get the last two done tomorrow night, then pics. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250365-death-guard-warband-showcase/page/11/#findComment-3142742 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks great! I'm using the Masq tube making tool - just got it, so perhaps went a little overboard. :D A video from the manufacturer: The bases are simply beach sand/gravel, and dried bark from trees - you can buy big bags for next to nothing from gardening centres. It looks great once painted black and drybrushed grey.

I've been using cork bark, but yours has a much more jagged, rough look that I like, especially for that large, dynamic effect on that DP/GD.
