Excessus Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I'm saying that his vision of what Saturnine should be is the best I've seen, yes. I don't know what to tell you, but for everyone one Rembrandt known there are 1000 Van Goghs that never see success. I'm not saying Greyall is a Rembrandt or Van Gogh, but I think his vision of Saturnine is faithful to the current vision of Crusade Era arms and armor that FW has been redesigning. Then say that, instead of that other thing you said...

depthcharge12 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 hahaha too wordy. I wholeheartedly agree. I am still open to seeing other designs, but this one hits the money. Im sure Simon egan will be faithful to it and not make it rediculous and mega zordy Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279107-saturnine-terminator-armor/page/3/#findComment-3440650 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 If the latest FW designs are of any indication, it'll be awesome, the Sons of Horus modified armours are just genius.

Conn Eremon Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 There was something cool in star wars that i read note: prepare for maximum nerdage that Jango/Boba fett's helmet had that ring around it that allowed for views 360 degrees. I wouldn't put that idea past it, im sure there's something that allows visibility of sorts Can you imagine how difficult that would be to figure out? That thing at the super extreme left of your vision is actually behind you and if it moved a tiny, tiny bit one direction it would suddenly be on the super extreme right of your vision, but still actually behind you.

Maybe have some form of overlap to avoid the confusing jump from left to right? Something right behind you would thus be visible both left and right so that when you're being backstabbed by a Night Lord you'd be doubly terrified!

Kol Saresk Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I figure if Space Marines are able to handle blink-clicking icons while having every single little thing in their view having its own data feed as well as company/squad indicators and who knows how many other blinking lights in that visor, they can handle something as simple as "rabbit glasses".

talos402000 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 It requires me to register, Talos. Maybe later. Pity, though, can you outline the general view they have on the armour? It has the same rules as the Indomitus Terminator Armor except that it has the Slow and Purposeful rule instead of Relentless and incorporates a Iron Halo instead of a Refractor Field.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Sure, Greyall makes some decent images and has come a long way in the last two years or so, it's interesting to see the develompment unfold. He has an interesting, detailed, style that is currently limited to Black & White and can make some nice dynamic poses as well. But to raise him to a level above John Blanche, Jes Godwin and a whole cadre of other miniature makers and artists is quite a bit too much in my eyes... Blanche is awful. I really don't understand why people go so crazy over his art because it looks like something a 14 yr old might produce. At the most I would say his stuff is good enough to inspire sculptors or better illustrators to improve upon his foundation, but the hype about him, I'll never understand.

Greyall Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Come on, Kage...that's pretty much what a Concept Artist is all about. Master Blanche has said himself in past interviews that what he does is translate a universe's spirit into drawing, leaving room for other, better at "bringing to life" artists to shine. I'll say it again, Blanche is pretty much responsible for the grimdark we know and love, do you see how thankful we should be? No point in evaluating him for something he is not - an illustrator. He puts thoughts (disturbing as they may be) into paper.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 THAT I can understand. Seeing people gush about him on the forums and in my LGS about how awesome everything he commits to paper is... I just don't get it. I'm actually kinda disappointed when I see his art in a codex, taking up space that other artists could have filled.

Cactus Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 If you're a fan of eggshell terminators you should check out the models Dark Rage has sculpted and cast. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274297-drs-consecrators/?p=3442087 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279107-saturnine-terminator-armor/page/3/#findComment-3442112 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuskRaider Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I would honestly love to see the rumored Death Guard Chem / Rad Terminators decked out in Saturnine. They could say they need the added protection or some sort.

simonius_p Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Aegis is the power armor, not the TDA. That pattern is currently unnamed its the other way round, the GK originally only wore terminator aegis suits, power armour was only brought in after 4th ed Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279107-saturnine-terminator-armor/page/3/#findComment-4038623 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Perils Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 It seems there was a recent black library novella (I think Meduson) that published a picture of their new version of the eggshell : http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2015/05/40k-mystery-new-terminators-on-the-way.html I've heard these were a Salamander exclusive pattern. I prefer Greyall's version, but I find the back weapon pretty cool. Could this be a sub-variant of saturnyne TDA ? Also, do you think I could equip some of my DIY chapter members with Saturnyne ? The Dread Lords are specialized in close quarters fighting, so it makes sense that they could have special kinds of TDA.
