Kol Saresk Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 Well, I think most people don't realize is that Forgeworld is trying to go for the whole "jumping/landing" sense of motion. And let's face it, they may look weird being snapshot like that, but you can look and tell who is landing and who's pushing off. Heck, one guy looks like he's running. But when you throw in the arms, it kind of throws everything off a bit. If you add some basing, twenty bucks says you can use the exact same pose and pull it off and people go "Oh, that's a wonderful conversion!" Ironically, it's like my problem with the helmets Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281332-night-raptors/page/2/#findComment-3484146 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balthamal Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Just think Kol it's your chance to say "Mine are better than yours" to FW.

Greyall Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 These guys already carry a lot of grisly trophies. I wonder if FW can up the ante for the Terror Squad without making them look like armed corpse carts. Â And the skull-helms...please give them the Mk4 Skull-helms...

Balthamal Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I'd be more than thrilled if they simply did some torsos decked out in patches of flayed skin and plenty of chain totting skulls  Throw in Mk III and IV skull helms and I'll be giving me organs to FW to hold as collateral Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281332-night-raptors/page/2/#findComment-3484273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I'm sure they have a warehouse of those, by now. =) Maybe a heart, for rarity's sake? Â There's a margin of depravedness that FW can explore, but aye, it shouldn't differ from the Raptors too much.

DuskRaider Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I don't think their helms are bad per say, but I would trim the bat wings off. If all else fails, you always have the skull-esque helm from the Mk. IV Legion pack, which seems very sinister and Night Lords to me. These do make it more difficult to decide if I want Sons of Horus or Night Lords as my allies, though.

Balthamal Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 There's skull helms in the mark IV pack? Must have missed that one  If i wanted to give my heart to FW I'd need to find it first.

depthcharge12 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I dont know if this has been brought up before, Â Â but would it kill forgeworld to do a mixed armor squad? Like some with mk II and some with mk IV? Â While I like some uniformity, I try to model all my guys as individuals, which is odd for a WE legion since most of the new guys don't get names other than bullet shield or spear catcher :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281332-night-raptors/page/2/#findComment-3484460 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyall Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 It wouldn't kill them, they just wouldn't feel so alive. Finantially alive, that is. Â I say this without any judgement, for the record.

Brother Heinrich Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 There's skull helms in the mark IV pack? Must have missed that one Yeah, one of my new bikers is rocking one as well as Kol Saresk's model in my force. It's not an actual 'skull' per say, but it is a skull-like theme.

Wade Garrett Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Someone mentioned it before in another thread, I think: the poses are a little 'prancy'. "Ohhhh, we are sons of Nostromo and we like to sing as we frolic all about in our battle helms with wings! Bum buh da bum bum bum!
