mactire Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Capt I have a thread running at the moment on the loyalist SW forum where they pick the load-outs, as a thanks for all your work in the ETL I invite you to arm up an allied DA captain using any of the bits mentioned in the thread also you can include the contents of the space marine commander set (old plastic kit not the new clampack one).

Quixus Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 For my own part, I come down on the side of courage. For courage can sometimes make a virtue of inexperience. I myself have commanded Imperial Guard troops whose probitor units have achieved great things, because they were too inexperienced to realise that their goal was impossible.

Either you're a brave one or I need to go get popcorn. just a second brother, i'll go and get us some beverages instead. this could turn out to be interesting @mactire have you thought about sending Captain Semper a PM link to this? i only say as he's a mod doing mod duties and might not see it straight away. he is running 2 painting comp-threads atm.

mactire Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 Just a idea I'm running in the SW forum. I'm starting a new GC and as I'm sick of taking forever to pick weps and armour types for troops I've asked the wolf forum members to give suggestions and I'll name the said models after them. As thanks for organising the ETL comps,without which I might never get anything done, I'm asking the Capt. would he like to choose a load-out for an allied DA capt.

Captain Semper Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 That's fun! Thanks for the honour Mactire! :) A few questions: Do you have access to Termie armour? And do you have access to DA specific sprue? Depending on the answer I'll revert! In any case prepare yourself for a very unorthodox config! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactire Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 Some SW termi weapons and heads mainly but no spare legs or torsos. Also some bits that look like they came off a ravenwing sprue ??? some kind of rope with burners hanging off it a couple of RW sword and wing things and some DA figures that look like they have been carved, oh! and two bike cowls if that helps.

Captain Semper Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Sorry Mactire for being absent in the last days.. Real life is being really hectic for me. So if your offer is still good, I would like a Dark Angels Master with Heavy Bolter - ala Captain Angelus in Dawn of War. As heavy ornamentation as possible (the bits from the old Captain kit would help on this front) and bare faced (if you have the bald head with the three service studs it would be ideal). Call him Master of Recruits to make it even more weird! :D Again sorry for the late reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactire Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 No probs, will hopefully have some WIP pics up at weekend or early next week to see if it gets your approval. BTW which sprue has the three stud head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactire Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 Here are the (blu-tac) assembled pics Capt, hope they pass muster. Any changes let me know as I wont start painting for about another week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Fantastic work mate! Just what I had in mind! I actually prefer the head you used... Crazy conversion! :D Now let's see some paint on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onisuzume Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Just kinda odd for the model to have both the gills and a helmet nearby. Thought the two were pretty much mutually exclusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mactire Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Here's a little update With pack sergeant Maverick (from a call to arms, in the SW forum) This my first time painting non SW's so I hope I did the colours justice. Hopefully I'll be back soon with more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urael Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 The captain looks great! As for Dark Angels environmental tolerances, and the presence of the gills and helmet, I think it has more to do with the aromas of ThunderWolves, rather than the cold. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Well Mactire - it looks great! Maybe you should try painting more green in the future, maybe spend more time in the Rock too? ;) Really like the base too... I suggest you darken the metal bits a bit with black wash then pick up the details again with leadbleacher or silver of some sort... Very simple and very effective. Lovely pose... BTW what happened to Maverick? :lol: :lol: :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Beautiful work Mactire, I feel honoured! :blush: I really like the detail on all your minis, lovely work and a nice nod to the B&C community! :tu: Get ready now, the SWs will be called again soon to take up their brushes!

mactire Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 Glad you're happy with it Capt, it was really enjoyable to work on what felt like somebody else's mini. I figured the skull and crossbones wolf pad was close enough to the legio symbol so I thought what the hell. As I said in the Wolves forum I'm always happy to contribute something to this site as it is my real link to the hobby and has always motivated me to keep going and try to improve my work. Looking forward to the next LPC or ETL competition. Until next winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
