Marshal Mattias Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) INCOMING TRANSMISSION:PRIORITY ALPHA CLASSIFICATION: PICTURE-SPAM MESSAGE BEGINS: This is a lot of pictures even for one of my posts :P My newly-promoted and as-yet-unnamed Marshal has been successfully magnetised at both the wrists and neck. Why the neck? So he can retain maximum RoC pose depending on weapon load-out, or potentially in case I want to put a helmet on him, or want to run the same fluff Marshal in different armour or something later. I've been busy magnetising alternate weapons which he can pick from (dishing out the rest to his honour/vanguard). The Dev and Van kits have such great weapons and bits!

I'm very pleased with this guy, can't wait to paint him!

Cap'm Heckus Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) Very nice. Now I tempted to buy that new command squad set just to get that guy. It's nice to see that he's easily convertible.

Firepower Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Is that one of the old 2nd/3rd edition axes in his off hand? I wish I still had some of those.

AndrewChristlieb Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Dang that's a lot of arms to paint up! You going to be doing him in the ETL? Is that one of the old 2nd/3rd edition axes in his off hand? I wish I still had some of those. And the power fist. :( His left hand looks like yes, I've got a couple SB with them they're nice looking. Might have one more bouncing around, can't remember... Have a bunch of the old fists bumming around too.

Marshal Mattias Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) Yeah, dead easy - the wrists are barely wide enough to hold a 2mm magnet, but just made it. Not the simplest of cuts to free the hands without damaging them, but doable with a sharp knife and patience. The right shoulder pad is a standard swap, as are the head and backpack (and the right arm too, though why anyone wouldn't want to use it is beyond me!) I shaved the stylised purity seals from his shoulder pad to reattach them to his BT one. Otherwise I didn't need to change the overall pose, and the torso has a nice robe/chain thing going on so I decided to leave as-is. That axe actually came on one of the impressive new sprues, Firepower - so you can get one if you can bring yourself to buy a box of Devastators! :P Yeah, he'll be a Chapter Master Marshal in the ETL, so I'll pick the best weapon hands to equip him with for that. I'll probably be doing my Termie Chapter Master of Sanctity too, so lots of details but lots of points ;) Edited April 22, 2016 by Marshal Mattias Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284514-the-renascibilitas-crusade-redemptor-wip/page/23/#findComment-4373169 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MkI was too tall, the MkII lacked in epic-ness. MkIII is closer to what I wanted. It's meant to have a cathedral-like vibe, with a good size 'fighting platform' for Grim and his Posse (or whoever else is riding in it). I was able to tone-down the height, build the width and make the whole thing chunkier. Lots of open arches should keep it looking mobile and not interfere too much with gameplay LoS and all that. I'd appreciate any feedback - so far I've just been cutting and filing the panels/sponsons and dry fitting them. The entire structure is blutac for now, until I am confident in the design.

Arthanor Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 That looks.. suitably epic! Nice work! Now put on a holy melta orb of Antioch launcher somewhere on the platform!

Firepower Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Glorious. Always wanted a shrineraider, but I don't think I could ever stomach that much work on a single model.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) Move the pulpit rearwards, so it won't interfere with the twin-linked assault cannon's traverse. Replace the pulpit's two front spikes with pintle-mounted weapons, so enemy fire won't interrupt the Chaplain's sermons. Gild the skulls, as on the Golden Company's banners- as the mortal remains of Black Templars who gave their lives for the Emperor, they deserve to be gold-plated.

mytimeprez Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I like it. Where are the side panels from?

Marshal Mattias Posted May 1, 2016 Author Share Posted May 1, 2016 Thanks for the feedback folks! Indeed, they are Scibor panels - they're fun, if a little imperfect compared to GW or FW. The assault cannons are currently free to rotate on the horizontal axis, but you are right that they wouldn't be able to point upwards. I'll see if it is possible to shift it all backwards a little but if not then I can live with it. Also, those lower side-arches may or may not make the final cut - it depends on whether I can find a way to make the top half removable for transport without them causing a problem. I'm also working on a multimelta lectern complete with book - when the Chaplain speaks the words of the Emperor, they will incinerate his foes with searing flame and light! My main concern currently is something Firepower has noted already - there's going to be a heck of a lot of work painting all this! It may take me most of the ETL, so I'll need to try and get the maximum points out of it that I can, just in case!

Marshal Mattias Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) Structural work mostly complete - had to bite the bullet and fix the shrine stuff permanently (magnetising was just too flimsy). Was going to use some floor tiles to build a slight raised area for one figure, but space was an issue - I wanted to easily fit Grim and 3 Servitors, as well as swap them for other models with larger base sizes - so I kept the floor mostly open and flat. Chains are not fixed yet, just getting a feel for it. http://i1287.photobucket.com/albums/a628/matzeke/2994D26E-0D2C-47CA-846C-FEB5FC5C11BC_zpspife3nxl.jpg Pintle-mounted ZEAL http://i1287.photobucket.com/albums/a628/matzeke/07F8E539-C46B-4717-9002-D43E94E6D700_zpsxyciqqmi.jpg The back wall was looking a little sparse - a relic shield and censers should liven it up, although they won't be glued until after painting. http://i1287.photobucket.com/albums/a628/matzeke/8E464460-CFF2-494C-833E-9D2023E8FB80_zpsn4wow7jo.jpg Well, hope you like! There are still a few gaps to greenstuff, but it's getting there. The only nod to transporting the model is the top banner and the lectern, which are simply pinned into place and detachable. Not my usual style but the best I could do in the circumstances!

Arthanor Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) Looks very promising! Very nice work! I know I'm late for this, but if you use a metal plate instead of the plasticard for the floor, you can afford to put one hunking big magnet in the LRC and that should give you a very solid attachment, while allowing you to detach the shrine for better transport.

Marshal Mattias Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 That's not a bad idea (provided I could find a metal plate the right size - I don't have the proper tools for that type of material!) As it is, I'll have to live with it now.
