disease Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Hi Guys, Really new to all this converting and painting and gaming, although i've been reading Black Library books for 15+ years. Just thought I would share my first real minis with you. Looking for ideas, cristcisms etc... disease.

Messor Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I have a feeling the 'drake and 'brute are going to be of a most epic magnitude. Fantastic conversions! Looking forward to more, and hope to see 'em in color soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azekai Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Very interesting- I particularly like the gigantic blight drone. I think it might be a good idea to pare off some of the obviously tyrandid ventricles on the back of the carapace, though. That will prevent its profile from being so overtly that of a tervigon.

disease Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 Thanks for the encouragement, i never realised it would be so time consuming! I did think about removing the tyranid towers, but they look very similar to those found on Typhus. I think i may make more and use them for ornamentation on my vehicles and terminators instead of your usual trophy spikesk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Have to say, love the Blight Drone and I look forward to it progressing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Nice, I'd never even considered the possibility of a giant blight drone as a heldrake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disease Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Well after a rather long time of inactivity, I've started modelling again... all very WIP...

nurglez Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Aha, thats who you are. thought it was you but always nice to be sure :D Looking good so far, what sort of list are you aiming to run? We'll have to team up one day at darksphere :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherCaptainArkhan Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 ...Hold still, gotta poop out a fresh clip! :D As I said in the store, looking nice...Your GS work is really good. The running Plague Marine looks badass. Can't remember what the colour scheme for these guys was going to be? Reckon the rust idea will suit them well though.

disease Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 Well a rather delicious delivery arrived this morning from Spellcrow Minatures... plague knights... http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0021_zpsaac720e0.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0023_zpsdfa79eb0.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0026_zps9772e6a7.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0027_zps5e4f0486.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0031_zps591e4799.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0024_zpsf24102ca.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0028_zps10186e8b.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0025_zpsf0a2992e.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0029_zps853101a4.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0030_zps75614caa.jpg Without a doubt this is the best Plague Marine kit you can buy right now. The quality is amazing - its the kit that GW should have always made, not the shoddy finescast models (which I also own) which are 2/3rds the size of normal marines! Problem is I already have the FW stuff. Both kits are really good but they don't seem to fit in terms of style, these are far more organic and 'diseased'. I can't wait for them to release more parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disease Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 So I put some more models together today, using parts from GW finecast, FW, spellcrow, maxmini, anvil industry and all the other independents I don't remember the name of: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0032_zpsfc12167a.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0034_zps1957c375.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0038_zps81e68656.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0037_zps08fc63d3.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0039_zpse4516e97.jpg Meltagunner http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0036_zps2fa2e294.jpg These models are almost all spellcrow parts, going to be in a different squad... http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0040_zps671eb43f.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y264/Madoktopus/W40k/IMG_0041_zps8121c3d8.jpg Whatch'all think?

nurglez Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Quite liking those spellcrow bits, they do look the part. Shame I've got over 14 plague marines still in pieces and no space for them in my army at the moment, so more plagues is not what I need heh. If you can, I would suggest adding something to the gap where the bolter is. A bit late now but I would have flipped the bolter upside down and reattached the ammo feed (I do this with my combi plasma and it works well I think). excuse the flash. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c397/nurglez/IMAG0260_1_zps6b7b8dfd.jpg I see a few different colours, how are you going to paint them?

disease Posted June 11, 2013 Author Share Posted June 11, 2013 I have to say, I don't know quite what you mean about filling the gaps of the bolters? I'm happy with how they are coming out, I will improve the models with extra green stuff in time, just want to get the poses first. in terms of paint, I did want to go with a rust effect, but the spellcrow parts are so detailed and corroded I don't want to lose any of that detail. Gonna have to re-think my paint scheme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglez Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 yeah sorry, typing while tired is never a good idea. I meant the gaps at the back where the trigger normally is.. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with them, its just what I'd do :D must get together for a combined nurgle game one day, I should soon be able to have Wednesday evening off again hopefully :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PipX Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Ooo, those Spellcrow bits are amazing, I need to see if I can find someone here in the US selling them. I really like your cultists as well, they have a nice look where they can fit for both normal cultists and plague zombies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
