deathspectersgt7 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Agree with the stock option but I would play you can tell what they are. I think they look cool.

Argent aquila Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 If a person puts in the effort to make something new, they should be rewarded with the rights to use it as they want, unless it's a totally broken death star, of course! My only suggestion would be to add some more means of munitions or something extra to really bring out the lascannonness (?) like more clips of ammunition or some sorta rig attachment, that way they won't resemble guard flashlights on steroids, you want to push the cannon part more, if that makes sense....? Really great stuff, the more the merrier!

Veteran Sergeant Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I don't see any reason why anyone would have a problem with those "lascannons". They're distinctive enough and easy to tell what they are.

Monstra Sumus Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 Well, taking into account peoples opinions, I've added to them somewhat before they really set, I feel they are definitely more distinctive as 'Lascannon' now. What do you guys think?

Argent aquila Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Hmmm that actually helps it out a lot. Good balance between this and smaller las weapons.

Monstra Sumus Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 Thanks lads, now I can deal with all the pesky armour properly! Also, another tiny update for tonight. Another Marine gets his melta swapped for a Grav-rifle for all that anti elite goodness.

What do you guys think? Cheers, BT Aaaand the Tyrax pattern assault Lascannon is born! "After months of gruelling urban combat across the hive planet of Tyrax the ever resourceful tech Marine cult of the Marines Malevolent pooled their extensive knowledge to create a compact lascannon that reduced the overall size but didnt suffer any loss of power, with the aggressive nature as heck the Marines Malevolent local allied soldiers quickly dubbed this weapon "assault lascannonn" for the manner the Marines aggressively used its reduced size in the confines of the rubble wastes of the hive" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267517-marines-malevolentknights-vermilionupdate-ironclad/page/13/#findComment-3596881 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monstra Sumus Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 That fits perfectly with the idea I had explored in explaining their appearance. They would rely on advanced thermal sight modes to effectively 'see through walls' using this as a proto-rail gun for close quarters anti-armour and assassination orders.

deathspectersgt7 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 The New additions look Great. From what I can see on the assualt-las bits wise . plasma gun sights from missle launcher lascannon barrel.

Monstra Sumus Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 Spot on Sarg! +UPDATE+ First time trying extensive gore and battle damage. I think the end result is shaping up pretty well. What do you guys think? It's supposed to represent a bolt round detonating too close and shrapnel damage. Also, the merits of wearing a helmet C&C is appreciated BT Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267517-marines-malevolentknights-vermilionupdate-ironclad/page/13/#findComment-3597588 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent aquila Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 A++ Great stuff, makes him look even more tough because he doesn't seem to show any pain at all!

Legionnaire Sandor Are you perhaps considering freehanding a hound's head on a kneepad? I am rather tempted. I may try for that tomorrow.

The_Chaplain Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Brother Tyrax; I think Brother Sandor (fantastic GoT reference btw) is off to a great start in terms of effective painting for a recent shrapnel wound- however, I think he needs some black soot around the wound to simulate the explosion of the gunpowder at such a close range. It doesn't have to be thick or even particularly dark; but putting some cordite smokiness and maybe even powder burn would help convey the effect more convincingly*. (Normally I would post a reference picture of what I'm talking about; but considering the squeamish nature of the wound, it may be in the collective best interest not to do so in this particular instance). *Well, realism can only go so far when applied to 8 foot tall genetically enhanced power armoured gun wielding monks.

I tried out some burning around the edges of the wound and this seems to be about as much as I can put around it before it interferes with the rest of the model too much. What do you think? Need tutorial now! Real simple dude, simple put a thin coating of Typhus Corrosion (for that pitted, bits of my face are falling off texture), then apply a mix of Tamiya clear red and Nuln oil until desired level of grimness is achieved.
