Finn Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Hello Brothers! I've put this guy together today. He's supposed to be armed with the Mace of Redemtion instead of your usual Crozius Arcanum. I'm pretty pleased with how he turned out. IMO he looks suitably menacing What do you think? Sorry for bad photography. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad53/bkubera/zdj1190cie-1_zps280d6264.jpg For his right shoulderpad, I've used this bit from WFB Chaos Knights box: http://www.mrocznyraj.pl/sklep/images/produkty/c-k21.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate Brushes Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Very nicely done, but I'm not a fan of the Khorne Berzerker head; I would have used one of the hooded DA heads for a Darth Sidious vibe - it's pretty sinister not being able ot see someone's face when they're bearing down on you with a mace that big!

The_Chaplain Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 You know, I just think that the chaos berzerker head looks a little too evil for what you're trying to accomplish- and I think it's because of the needle like teeth. If you were to take a sharp exacto style knife and cut across the teeth and make more human looking "chisel" edged teeth, and maybe put a hood on it, it would play up the DA symbolism very well.

Finn Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 Chaos Berzerker head seems to be quite controversial among B&C users. I think it fits. This goes to everybody who thinks that Imperium's iconography ISN'T evil. Have fun :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathspectersgt7 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I like it I still say wicked in a good way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oceangrave Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I gotta ask you how you did the candles, i'm gonna guess real candles but i have been looking into making a unit of chaplain specific dark angels for my army Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 I gotta ask you how you did the candles, i'm gonna guess real candles but i have been looking into making a unit of chaplain specific dark angels for my army The idea is not mine. Some time ago I saw a great tutorial on making candles. You need a thin plastic rod, like a spear or something similar. Then you cut it to required length and drill a hole at one end for the wick. Then you place a tiny ball of GS on the model, where the "base" of the candle is supposed to be. You press the rod into the ball. You have to wait until the GS hardens. In the meantime, take thin sewing thread and harden it with superglue. Cut a little longer than you need for the candle. After GS dries, glue the rod into the socket with superglue and put some in the hole for the wick. Place the thread into the hole and trim so it looks like a candle, not dynamite ;) To represent molten wax, water down PVA and paint it onto the candle. Voila :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 As the chaplain is nearly finished, I've started working on some ofhis bone coloured friends. This is the direction I'm heading with them,apart from the fact he's not yet finished: http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad53/bkubera/zdj1190cie2_zps5e885246.jpg I need advice. I want to paint the powerfists in some different manner. I'd like hazard stripes but I'm not sure if I'll be able to pull that off on a curved surface like a powerfist. The other idea is to paint them black/green/red. Does anyone have some idea what to do with it? Maybe you have advice on how to paint hazard stripes on fists to make sure it looks good?
