*Furyou Miko Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Not if they slide back up to lay flat across the forearm, Predator-style, instead of retracting into the hand, cat-style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Yes, I could see that working, I had actually considered doing something similar on my Tartaros terminators, but 1: My sculpting skills are beyond hopeless and 2, scared to ruin a perfectly good model. For example, put something like this: Onto the Back of his fist.... Do-able?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvmoogy Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Maybe use a chainfist as a base as it would already be the right size and have the mounting point ready for you...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 My suggestion was to use a standard Power Armour arm and the Eshin Fighting Claws off a Nightrunner model to have them 'retracted' as he's using that hand to control the bike.

Thoqqu Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 @Miko It was a game with most of the rules in play. We didn't play any particular mission but used victory points and lists were tailored to be versatile but quite balanced. No powercreep. Sisters won by the end of turn 6 with canoness and one superior remaining by wiping out my remaining forces in melee. ~2H game =) marvmoogy, Son of Carnelian and *Furyou Miko 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheesh Mode Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Tested out a list for a modified Highlander tournament last night. My counter-meta list was countered by a deathstar of Endranced Thunderwolves boosted by Sevrin Loth. So I am back to the drawing board with my count-as noisemarines.

JGeils81 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I finished building my speeder...ready for paint now. and wrapped up and magnetized my first assault squad, also ready for paint now... used half of my magnets on the Sgt alone...why does he have so many options! couldnt find a good way to make the flamers an option though so I think they will just get slung on the models when they use them..

One thing I've started doing to help with this is to only magnetize the one option I actually expect to use right away. Then, later, if I play some games and change my mind I can always go paint up a new weapon or arm or whatever as needed. I just did a full vanguard squad, and I magnetized more than I needed to but that was a LOT of magnets even doing just a couple options for most of them. Posing can be a challenge, but it's a fun one for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantomzero17 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 TITH finished painting a 10 man squad of Pathfinders as gift for a friend. Then to hopefully begin cleansing myself from Xenos sin I went over to my FLGS and bought a drop pod and one of the old tac boxes. My Aunt also has a Sternguard box for me in the mail so some more Templars are in the works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffTibbetts Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I finally picked up 3 packs of 32mm bases at my local game shop. They've been out of stock on GW for ages, but I finally got the bright idea to call my shop. :P He just got them in. So, that'll be my 10 Vanguard I'm working on now, and then I have to decide if I'm going to start tugging my current guys off theirs or just sitting on these for a while. I'd like to at least do my other 10-man assault squad, since they tend to tip over. It's worth pointing out once again; they are significantly larger! A few mm goes a long way.

Carrack Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 TDITH, well yesterday, I was basing my first ever vehicle, a Helbrute, and spilt the glue. I was using a thin glue for the base and must have both not secured the lid tightly, and knocked the bottle over onto the base as I left for work. I came back to a ruined base and an unhealthily smelling house. I had to open up windows and doors for a few hours with outside temperatures just above freezing. The Mrs was unimpressed. The Helbrute spent the night outside. Bad Helbrute. Teetengee 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlson793 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 A week post-surgery, my shoulder is healed up enough to allow me to hit the basement with a can of primer to begin prepping a couple apothecaries for the glory of the XVIIIth Legion.
