thamier Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 yes that and plates like the red plates on the maulerfiend, kinda hoping you give it a try and if its too good you will have to teach me how you did it in detail Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/21/#findComment-4085956 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 I'll have to give it a try at some point. Sadly the spare time I get these days is focused mostly on red! :/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/21/#findComment-4086029 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 First Maulerfiend finished! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/mauler10.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/mauler11.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/mauler12.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/mauler13.jpg I may do some more to its base, but generally speaking this is done. I need to do another Maulerfiend (for now) and a Chaos Lord on a bike. Still not entirely sure what I will be doing for that though! How can a guy with a lightning claw and a power fist ride a bike?

Tzen Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Ta chaps! Been thinking, I have only another of these to do and then my lord on a bike and then my Word Bearers are technically "done". I am a free agent then, I can paint whatever I like. God knows I have a large enough pile of stuff. I may have to do some fantasy shizzle, which will sadly take me away from posting on these boards for a bit :( (at least painting part at any rate!).

Tzen Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 I still have Lorgar to do too. So I may do him once I finish the army off. I am keen to do more Ultramarines too. Don't be surprised if I start posting pics of those soon!

Argent aquila Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 How can a guy with a lightning claw and a power fist ride a bike? simple, he stands in the saddle and rides it like a surfboard! looking forward to lorgar!

Kythnos Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 How can a guy with a lightning claw and a power fist ride a bike? Mine does it like this: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/gallery/image/145642-cimg6151/ http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/gallery/image/145643-cimg6152/ He just deactivates his weapons' power fields when he needs to stir the bike - easy.

Tzen Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 Looks great Kythnos. Just no idea if I should do mine similarly or something very drastic!

Tzen Posted July 26, 2015 Author Share Posted July 26, 2015 Ta chaps! I am reluctant to say this, but I think I am nearing the end of my Word Bearers. I have the following I may do: - Lord on Bike - 2 x Forgefiends After those, the army has everything I will likely use until the codex gets an update (which isn't looking to be any time soon). I may paint up these for the sake of painting them: 10 Raptors 10 Warp Talons 5 Converted terminators using robed type bodies 5 chaos spawn (the real models, not the Gal Vorbak I use - purely because I can). Khorne Lord of Skulls (no idea why) Chaos Knight Dark Apostle However, it is pretty likely I will be working on my Grey knights and Ultramarines a lot more, and some undead (which obviously I can't share here!). Sad realisation really, and the above is plenty to be getting on with, I will just miss these guys! Obviously I have Lorgar and stuff to do too, but they aren't really 40k :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/21/#findComment-4128328 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrillhouse Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I think tou should at least do a dark apostle before putting these aside. To me they are iconic word bearers. Also if i havent said this before: amazing army!

Tzen Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Well, I am a little gutted. A while ago, when the Dark Apostle model came out, I bought it. Up until now I have had no issue with finecast at all. But the model is just really poor. The cursed crozius snapped off (and is bent). The head and the chestplate are so distorted and without any real detail, and the model doesn't fit together very well at all. I have only ever in my life stopped painting one model, and that was the Kor Phaeron model which tuned out to be a chinese knock off. This Dark Apostle model is in worse condition than that :/ Sadly I have decided to just not continue. I do however have some lovely Forge World stuff I need to paint...! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/21/#findComment-4143067 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Shame about the Dark Apostle, but if it means that you'll be painting Forge World treats... :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/21/#findComment-4143089 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 I may re order the dark apostle and hope this one turns out better than the one I currently have. I can't tell you just how depressed I am right now. The model is so bad, it has just put me right off painting anything :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/21/#findComment-4143094 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrillhouse Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Too bad! I was hoping for a nice kitbash instead of the 40k model tbh. In sure you could build something alot better with either plastic or resin. Edit: kor phaeron! But real fw this time.

Tzen Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 I've managed to push on and get this model done. I may post a quick picture in a minute, but its a very rushed job. I like the shade of red (which is what I would have painted my entire army if I had my time again). The sheer amount of pot holes on the back pack is amazing, im surprised I didn't notice them when I first bought the mini. The face is a mess. I have done what i can with it, but yeah, such a depressing model to paint, I actually really like it on the GW website too :( Not sure what is next. I have my ultras and Grey Knights to continue. I keep meaning to take photos of them and update the blog, but keep leaving them at work! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/21/#findComment-4143711 Share on other sites More sharing options...
