Dantay VI Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Could you snip the storm bolter off his arm, and carve the said arm up a bit? Then use some of your GS skills to turn the mutilated arm into some kind of tentacle?? I have no clues for names.... I am saving Hector Brocklebank for one of my own legionnaries :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286791-augustus-braass-pre-heresy-brass-scorpion-p247/page/50/#findComment-4136319 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 That's actually not a bad idea, Dantay. Cheers.Also, I see your siggy still has a 'Bring it On'-banner from the Augustus Arena event. You can copy-and-paste a Victor badge from this post, and update your siggy with it. You earned it, buddy!

Aasfresser Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I love him! Now he looks simply awesome. All the nice little details comming perfectly together. The greenstuffed torso + plaque bester head could make him look to demon-y. This can be a nice thing, because you could use him as a herald, like your moniker for him suggests. And he could lead your PBs into battle. Don't remember if nurgle herald can get a palaquin. Also: count as Epidemius (should he have any worth in the table top). If you are going for lord or sorcerer, that could be a bit too much. But still, nurgel sorc with Prophet of the voices + palaquin or a very crazy fast corps cart aka 'plaque bike' or sumfin. I really like it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286791-augustus-braass-pre-heresy-brass-scorpion-p247/page/50/#findComment-4136569 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldier of Dorn Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 It looks lovely, Aug. Flows very well. As for a name suggestion, how about Sisiphus Arloth. I've got a big stack of names in a Word doc that I'll never use, and he looks just like how I imagined a Astartes of that name would be. Also, can we get a pic of the little icon on his storm bolter, if you haven't cut it up yet?

Dantay VI Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) Thanks and yes I have updated the banner... Imperial Fists eh?? Please make them 30K, you would be most welcome in the AoD forums In the meantime, the corpse cart is loking too clean inside, needs some detritus... Also was having a weird thought, but do you have any of thse nurgle ffoot knights (blightkings or whatever they are called) from WHFB kicking around? Was thinking that swapping the right leg with one of their swollen legs would look cool, if it scaled correcly...

Augustus b'Raass Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 Cheers guys! @Aasfresser: I hear you on the daemon head might make him look too daemon-y argument, so I stuck with the plague marine torso. :tu: @The Psycho: Sisiphus Arloth it is! Thanks for the suggestion! I'd name a character in my army after you, except you just named one for me. So I'll give you creds when I finish him, and award you a non-refundable, irredeemable, one-time digital high-five. How's that? ;) Also, I destroyed the icon the bolter had, but here's a picture that shows how you can make a pretty much perfect Death Guard symbol from the Slaanesh symbol on the Chaos Vehicle Sprue. Just cut along the red lines. :tu: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Night%20Lords%20WIP/temporary_zps08o0qxqy.jpg @Kurama: Yes, the hated VI Legion! @dantay_xv: They will be 30K, but my heart lies with Chaos so next year I'll probably be vowing the Chaos. I'd have to join in the attempt to get a repe3tion of being Primus Inter Pares next year ;) About the suggestions you made - yes, I agree the cart is too 'clean', so I put in some whitehead pustules on it. Here's a picture of it how it is right now, with a white basecoat on it (I can still add things though). http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Night%20Lords%20WIP/temporary_zpsdqmhvsq6.jpg I'm not going to change around the legs, as I am particularly satisfied with the way I converted them to stand on the cart itself. I have replaced his left arm with a tentacle, though, so I hope you like that. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Night%20Lords%20WIP/temporary_zpscbkzahqq.jpg Also, I gave him a bolt pistol and some grenades. http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Night%20Lords%20WIP/temporary_zpsiwmgjuse.jpg Tomorrow is painting time!! :D Kizzdougs 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286791-augustus-braass-pre-heresy-brass-scorpion-p247/page/50/#findComment-4137845 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrautScientist Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 That is a breathtaking Night Lords army, mate! Really, really awesome stuff -- and so freaking much of it, too! Seeing you depart for loyalist shores will be a sad sight indeed, even if it's (hopefully!) only temporary. I had hoped for more World Eaters from you, personally speaking. Which reminds me: You still need to do a certain NL Apothecary before you move on, you know... ;) The Plague Champion is looking great as well -- excellent use of the corpse cart! Did you keep the FW torso, after all? Because I think that option is far preferrable to having a Plague Bearer head on him. Plague Marines with daemon heads are such a tired cliché...whereas I always dig the featureless, WWI inspired look of an honest, gas masked Plague Marine head. Anyway, fantastic work all around!

I might have saintly painting speed, but I'm not too keen on sandals. ;) Love the Nurgle guy. Can I ask where the spear came from. Sure buddy: The haft and the arms of the spear are simply one Grey Knight Nemesis Force Halberd.

Job's a good 'un! Thanks! Yes, I agree about the Plague marine helmets. I've seen some conversions using the Biohazard Helmets from maxmini to great effect too. :tu: Also: 'Departing for loyalist shoes'??? Who said anything about departing? From your post I sense you´re worried about me leaving Chaos, and particularly my World Eater Khorne Daemonkin. Lemme take those worries away from you right now, and let me do this with a visual aid: I stacked all my bits boxes on top of one another behind my work station: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Night%20Lords%20WIP/temporary_zps99yp5jcm.jpg All of these are filled to the brim with pretty Chaos specific bits. They will be done. Also, zoom in on my work station: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d185/mkruijff/Night%20Lords%20WIP/temporary_zpshrt67arm.jpg I'm not going to be painting a trio of Chaos Lords on Juggernaut, plus another two Bloodcrushers, and a Bloodthirster, only to not have them anyone to lead, right? Serisouly: the Imperial Fists are merely a side project. Chaos will always be my core army, and I'll never stop expanding on it. It's just the Night Lords I'm taking a break from -temporarily- and don't worry about Kraut the Apothecary: your own Fabius Bile stand-in inspired me to start planning my own for Call of Chaos, and I'll give you three guesses what is name will be. :tu: Fella that army shot is just....wow hope to have an army pic like that my self one day You're super productive yourself, dude. You will have an army shot soon. Please make one, because your Scythes of the Emperor are just amazing!

Soldier of Dorn Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Ah... what a horribly small collection of bits. I don't think I've ever seen smaller. In fact, it's so small I'm willing to take the whole thing off your hands, so just send them my way ;) Anyways, I'm chuffed you like the name for the Plague Lord, and very grateful for the high five. Also, save some of the Khornate stuff. We wouldn't want you running out...

MrBear Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 What you have painted in two years is perhaps more than I ever painted throughout a couple of fantasy and 40k armies. In points at least, I did have a massive amount of Night Goblins once upon a time I definitely understand why you want to have some variation in your painting though, Imperial Fists should be quite something else compared to Night Lords. Oh, and that Nurgle guy looks really 'good', a nice use of parts and a sweet conversion.

Daemon2027 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I suppose having a small clection of corpse worshipers is fine, your chaos guys need to feed on souls and blood after all.

Thanks on the Nurgle guys, and yes, I am looking forward to painting yellow on a white undercoat. Both are far more unforgiving, so I hope to learn a lot from them. @The Hydra: Totally go for team chaos, mate. They're such a pleasure to convert!

Teetengee Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 So I really like most of the paint job. However, the fluid issuing forth from the nurglings in the back looks unfinished, as it is the same colour as the nurglings issuing it forth.

ShVagYeR Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Gotta love a futuristic Nurgle space marine heading to war on a wooden cart.

Flint13 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Haha, not going to lie. I read that as Syphilis Arloth at first, which would be apropos for a Nurgle Champion I suppose. He's looking pretty stellar! I love how unique all the little nasty nurglings are. They're all enthusiastic too, like little gross puppies.

Quixus Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Great model and paint job. Somehow I think it's missing a daemonette/Slaaneshi cultist, looking at the cute little nurglings with this expression.
