The_Chaplain Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 AHA! You're right! Yep, like Mikhail said- blood angel command squad from several years back. The landspeeder vengeance has a similar torso in plastic now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are both on my most coveted bits list along with the shorter back pack from the LS Vengeance kit and some other hard to find things.

Ditto, they are perfect torsos for flyer cockpits because they have the air feed hose look to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OOOOooooooo pretty....Awesome, I still love that conversion (must have been a :cuss trying to remove that right arm), just a shame it's in Marine Malevolent colours! :p :D Edited November 17, 2013 by SanguiniusReborn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Rage Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Used to like the old space marine captain mini. There was also an old sergeant model I saw that had a bionic arm and chainsword that I really liked. The chipping damage looks really nice. You mean this guy? http://i.imgur.com/UR114EB.jpg If so, I used to have one of those and traded it away years ago. It was a cool figure. I'm glad you like the chipping! I think the hairspray technique produces some amazing results, since it is literally chipped paint, and looks a lot more natural than trying to do it with a paintbrush or dabbing paint on with the spongy stuff that comes in the blister packs. Yeah that's the one saw it in one of the old rulebooks and just like the bionic arm I cant remember but there also used to be a similar model which was a bionic standard bearer. That techmarine piece looks like a pilot land speeder crew member? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonkin Arenis Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Some class work on the Crimson Sons, BCK! I like the effect you've gone for with the "acid rain-streaked" painwork Not sure if you're still unsure as to what to do for a Techmarine, but the one here is quite something. Take a peek!

Shorter back pack? I've never heard of that. Then again, I think that kit is almost as much an abomination as the Centurions and try to pretend it doesn't exist. Ditto, they are perfect torsos for flyer cockpits because they have the air feed hose look to them. Good idea! They make sexy Flamerthrower guy torsos too... Another good idea!

Thanks, DA. :) That is a nice techmarine, and one of the reasons I wish mine was Finecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Chaplain Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I'm no librarian but I'm predicting that both the blood angel tech marine torso and the land speeder vengeance torso are going to be cropping up with more frequency, and that they will be harder to find in the not too distant future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCK, mikhail is referring to this bit. You'd be surprised: heathens found that it fits perfectly on the veteran with power maul - the one you're working on for the Crimson Sons - and I fully intend to use it for my army as well. For such an... intersting kit, there's loads of little gubbins inside that make it something resembling a worthwhile build, from the backpack, to the helmets, shoulder pads and torsos. Basically, the crew are much better builds than the vehicle itself. Edited November 18, 2013 by Dragonkin Arenis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine may end up with a HH era jump pack. Small update on the Forge Lord: http://i.imgur.com/cXTbm0n.jpg I haven't decided what to do with the torso yet, but I figured I may as well get the base filled in for the time being.

GhostMalone Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 looking good brother maybe do the night lords symbol but rather than a skull do a gruesome cog with bat wings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 Maybe the Mechanicus cog symbol with bag wings to the sides? Right now, though, I'm more worried about how the frell I'm going to do the servo harness on this guy. I may only do two arms, but I want one of them to have a conversion beamer.

Hyaenidae Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Mod out a DA termie plasma cannon, make the conversion beamer hand carried? I have a Beamer, if you want it. Just say the word, my man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 A little while back I lost an auction for some Alchemists of Dirz figures I was hoping to use for some techno-barbarians: http://i914.photobucket.com/albums/ac348/RackhamMiniatures/Alchemists%20of%20Dirz/ClonesofDirzBlister.jpg I got one of those second chance offers from the seller for only 3 of them instead of ten, but it was a lot cheaper per figure than the original auction went for, and it would let me check the scale of these guys against the marines to see if it would even be worthwhile. They showed up in the mail today, and I think the scale will work just fine with the marines: http://i.imgur.com/PWV5enc.jpg Unfortunately, some of the other Dirz figures I already have, and love the look of them, are a bit too big to use, such as this Keratis Warrior: http://i.imgur.com/62hvBPf.jpg Ah well. I've also started on a new conversion for another marine, and here's the early wip prior to some greenstuffing: http://i.imgur.com/NxHEqrR.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Rage Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Looks good, really like the armour panels on the upper legs and also that extended rear neck guard which goes nicely with the iron armour helmet, it kind of gives a heavy siege armour look. Looking forward to more progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 The keratis warrior head might work on a "c word that heathens hate"--> obliterator conversion. Wait, were "c words that heathens hates" exclusively post heresy? Hell, maybe for some sort of mechanicum thallax nightmare beast if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
