Knights of the Emperor Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 This is epic, fantastic painting and basing. Also, you've spent an absolute ton of money in like a couple of weeks? Utterly barmy :) I second the call for a group shot.

esinhorn Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 Gotta say I agree about the join,gotta do something about that. I'll do a group shot as soon as I finish what is on my corks. I finished the last Ghost Knight this afternoon,Twin Falchons. That brings the unit to it's legal maximum.I will make at least two more at a later date for Mordrak's special rule that lets him add more knight each time he is wounded. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/006-62.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/005-73.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252397-emperors-gift/page/3/#findComment-3076363 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson Hawk Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 That's an awesome Thawn! Funny thing is, he looks almost exactly like mine, but mine is wearing a paladin helmet. Fantastic Ghost Knights too, btw, you've inspired me to make Modrak 'n co. now!

esinhorn Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 By the Emperor your fast! Fastest in all the Land They call me"The Paintbrush Kid" I just finished this Paladin too. I have about 5 knights to do,should go pretty quick they are all chromed and bladed,just need to pick out details,ect. I am putting the Paladins on bases with Vertical elements,like the HQ's The standard Knights will have flat bases. Just ordered the parts for a most excellent Dreadknight Relic Coontemptor Stay Tuned ^_^ http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/007-53.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/008-44.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/009-35.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/010-30.jpg 2nd Paladin(4th if you count the first two from the very beginning) http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/011-25.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/012-24.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/013-17.jpg[/img Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252397-emperors-gift/page/3/#findComment-3077875 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Hawk Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 God man, do you sleep? In all seriousness, this log continues to be every kind of epic. Nice to see another GK player who loves the books (not the Warddex, mind) and fluff as much as I do and not just in it for the cheese Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252397-emperors-gift/page/3/#findComment-3077897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 I have yet to ever play a game but model so if I did everything is legal and from GW or Scratchbuilt. So no Cheese over here,my work is pretty much inspired by the books or codex fluff. For instance I despise the Dredknight I think Ward watched the Matrix 3 just five too many times. But I want the unit for posterity,so I am going to do something cool with a Relic Contemptor and the Dredkights weapons that will be a jaw dropping counts as. (God I hope the weapons are similar scale to the contemptor) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252397-emperors-gift/page/3/#findComment-3077912 Share on other sites More sharing options...

esinhorn Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 I redid a bunch of blades from the first batch,that were just steel. I made a tute out of one,that I will post in a few days. In the meantime I saw a cool army that is using both Knights and Deathwatch. That gave me the idea to add one as part of an Inquisitors retinue. Since I am only doing one why not Brother Capatian Artemis,that spins off onto a second idea. Bringing as many 54mm Inquisitor models into 28mm scale,I have Hector Rex already on the way and he is a dead ringer for Witchhunter Tyrus which is how I am going to paint him as. Brother Captain Artemis http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/001-97.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/002-100.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/003-95.jpg I also made a Deathwatch Iron Snake,just cause Not sure about him as is,even though wrist Stormbolter makes every sense for DW I think it makes him look too Grey Knightish wih the spear. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/009-37.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/010-32.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/011-27.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252397-emperors-gift/page/3/#findComment-3079821 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ragnarok Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 *sigh* another thread to track. Really like what you are doing here. Highlights are the terrain and the ghost knights but it all looks good. What are those terrain pieces?

esinhorn Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 The terrain is Cities of death tiles and Gale force Rubble slabs. I make a custom mix of sand that uses coarse,medium,and fine ballast with .040 plastic rod chopped into bolter shells.

esinhorn Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 I tweaked Artemis a little more,used a decal for the skull and added wings like you see on the studio model,infact it is now as close to the studio model as I can make it. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/009-38.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/010-33.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/011-28.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/012-27.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/013-20.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/014-17.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252397-emperors-gift/page/3/#findComment-3080786 Share on other sites More sharing options...
