Winged.CAV Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 This is my attempt at a sammuel master of ravenwing on a landspeeder. It's going to take some time mainly because I just finished my LPC vow. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270714-sammy-on-a-speeder/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winged.CAV Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 So this is how far I've got so far http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/Jesse-smith87/IMAG1791_zpsc354dbea.jpg. The heavy bolters are pointing slightly in. I'll have to get y'all a top view to show you.

Winged.CAV Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 I don't like the stock sensor so I made one. http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/Jesse-smith87/caa973f87934efe9e7ece64b1535fcda_zps480c6173.jpg Built and primed. http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/Jesse-smith87/14cf87f820f7448e83a0edad4655249c_zpsccdc2fab.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270714-sammy-on-a-speeder/#findComment-3301676 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Chaplain Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I think the ravenwing biker bits (the angels and the skull shrine bit) are characterful and really add a lot to the piece. I just don't know about the weapon placement. As it is now, the landspeeder will have to spin around like a top to get all the gunfire off- or make a straightline towards every target. I'll reserve judgement until I see the Sammael conversion and whatever goodies you have planned left. I'm generally not one for massive amounts of purity seals- but a DA icon on the small wings, and maybe some seals might add some "pop".

Reichfaust Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'm liking this piece a lot, Winged.CAV--I was never a big fan of the underslung weapons on the Land Speeder, I think this is a big improvement! Can't wait to see more of this! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270714-sammy-on-a-speeder/#findComment-3302879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
matchbox Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 looks much better than the actual one they released. Can't stand the two heavy bolters on top. although i do like the twin linked AC underneath. Yours looks much nicer though.

As far as the weapon placement, I didn't think it would be a problem. If we are looking for realism then we can assume that a well trained army would have a understanding of sectors of fire, which would prevent the leader from spinning around like a top. I do appreciate the imput though :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270714-sammy-on-a-speeder/#findComment-3303090 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winged.CAV Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 Starting the robe work, I'll have to touch it up when it cures. I'll admit I haven't used the stuff in years. http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/Jesse-smith87/e5168b9322d5ea57bb19b6a5057da88a_zps92089ce1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270714-sammy-on-a-speeder/#findComment-3306033 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some will argue the use of the blade of caliban in place of a raven sword but I could not find a more imposing sword so it's what I went with Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270714-sammy-on-a-speeder/#findComment-3312784 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winged.CAV Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 All done on this for now. So I give you, my take on master of ravenwing on a land speeder. http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/Jesse-smith87/e73dafd5421a114770fc3069ed7f5e70_zps4bab5de7.jpg http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/Jesse-smith87/6f247e6164f96554f5fc0e03c03d9735_zps2663d65d.jpg http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/Jesse-smith87/9b8699a418f1d453b599f5b0a8318f01_zps10105b5d.jpg http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y440/Jesse-smith87/b92e07a3ab575e87d044666b0b06e092_zps979ff4a5.jpg. So what do y'all think? I didn't get a whole lot of input along the way.

WingsOfTheFalcon Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I think it's a really neat conversion, and the GS work really helps to make it look more 'Sammy' than any other attempt I've seen. Major crit would be the angling of the speeder currently, imho he looks like he's about to hit the dirt considering the speed those things are meant to travel at. All told though, I like it. I think you should try and do a bit of work to highlight up the black, using a dark grey just to help lift it a bit more too. Hope that doesn't sound too critical, I'd just think with a few tweaks and a couple more hours brush time it could be a whole lot better. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270714-sammy-on-a-speeder/#findComment-3313088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Sheol Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I like your take on this LS and the choice of bits too... My only complain is the gunner shooting a bolter while grabbing the handle bar... He looks silly... Instead i would get rid of the gun rail and made another blast shield like the one in front of Sammael and made him like he was manning the weapons thru a remote control like some kind of joystick and buttons... I dont think that the choice of the Blade of Caliban is bad... In the end nobody fields RW and GW Champions with that bad rules sword so Sammael will be the only one to have that cool looking blade... ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270714-sammy-on-a-speeder/#findComment-3313120 Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the angle, he's not glued on I have him like this in the pictures so it could show the most detail. That and highlighting is my weakest skill and it drives me nuts to see crappy highlighting.

I debated for a while on what to have the gunner do and I couldn't find anything I had that would look right. The joystick idea sounds cool.
