Pyromancer Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 With my praetor I wanted a sense of command and experience (The pteruges, skulls and green stuffed symbols on right shoulder pad and left arm, and the helmet plume), but not an overwhelming amount of bling, so I went for regular Mk III armour and weapons from the MkIII weapons set. I will add an etched brass Iron Warriors symbol to the empty shoulder pad when it is finally released.

infyrana Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Some tasty models and paint jobs, keep em coming, they are all extremely inspirational* :) (*word taken from someone elses' use earlier, very apt though!) The Nephilim, one of the reasons I created this thread was because of the current FW's praetor models. It is obvious they made them unique, apart from the normal marks of armour, and with added quality and style all of their own for a centre piece, bulking them out more so than your basic marine. Indeed, I do hope they bring out more models for praetors, but that would mean a hit on the wallet, so I can forgo that for a bit ;) I was concerned that any other model would just not come up to scratch compared to their slightly bulkier looking unique models. People here are proving me very wrong, and as always, it's about what you want and enjoy creating at the end of the day!

The Nephilim Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I'm not opposed to cutting a MkIV suit up and reposing him, I'm just wondering on how I'd use greenstuff and make the armor look like quality artificer armor. Maybe make some greenstuff molds of some of the Palatine Blades chest piece embellishments and go crazy from there.

The Nephilim Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 @KBA: I think there's too much going on with Loken's model to be redone. I'd much rather start with a clean suit if MkIV and figure out my own embellishments.

There is so much in the Work in Progress section that I'm constantly in there viewing threads and never knowing where I've gotten to.
